Chapter 343

"Ms. Frazier, is there anything else?" Andrew asked.

"No." Debra shook her head.

"Then you can leave," Andrew said bluntly.

Debra felt a mix of embarrassment and frustration. In front of him, she felt like an inexperienced schoolgirl.

Across town at the Nichols family's house, a different kind of tension was unfolding.

Melody slapped Shelia across the face, and the latter burst into tears.

"What's your problem? Who told you to make a scene at the Emerald Hotel? Do you even know what that place is? You brought this on yourself, and now you're dragging the Nichols family into your mess."

Juan, sitting silently on the sofa, made no move to defend Shelia.

Shelia, between sobs, tried to explain, "Mrs. Nichols Sr., Juan went to see Debra, and it was at a hotel. I just couldn't stand it."

Melody sneered, her voice dripping with disdain. "When you climbed into Juan's bed, how could Debra tolerate it?"

Shelia's face paled, the weight of her actions settling heavily on her shoulders.
