Chapter 66

Author: Cozy Season
Jordan glanced at Carrie without hiding his disdain.

Sensing an unfavorable situation, Shelia stood up and shielded Carrie. "Mr. Jordan Potter, it's all a misunderstanding. Carrie didn't mean any harm!"

"Who are you to speak here?" Jordan said bluntly.

Shelia blushed in embarrassment.

Jordan's favoritism towards Debra didn't escape anyone's notice, and Carrie couldn't hide her jealousy.

"What tricks did you use to bewitch him? Mr. Jordan Potter, do you know she's a homewrecker? She stole someone else's boyfriend, and she's a call girl," Carrie shouted, which irritated Jordan even more.

His stare intimidating, Jordan said, "I never hit women, but if you say one more word, I'll show you no mercy."

As Carrie backed down, Debra spoke calmly. "Before defending others, you should understand the situation. Don't be used as a pawn and end up a joke."

Carrie frowned, not understanding what Debra meant.

But Shelia did, and she turned pale.

As Debra led him to leave, Jordan glared back

    Shelia hurriedly explained, "Maybe she's just playing mysterious. Who knows what she's thinking? Anyway, let's stop thinking about this and just eat."Carrie finally suppressed her doubts.But Wendy smelled a rat. Not as naïve as Carrie, she didn't fully believe Shelia's words.From Shelia's reaction just now, Wendy sensed something was amiss."Let's carry out our plan tonight," she said."Yes! We'll follow her. I'll capture substantial evidence to show Jordan the true colors of that woman," Carrie agreed.But Shelia turned even paler.She had thought that after what just happened, Wendy and Carrie wouldn't want to continue their plan.But Wendy still proposed stalking Debra."Shelia, you'll come with us, right?" Wendy probed.Shelia forced a smile and said, "Of course, I've promised you. I'll definitely go with you."Her unnatural smile only aroused Wendy's suspicion even more.Shelia was lying, but Wendy wasn't sure what exactly Shelia had lied about.As the sky darkened

    "Sorry, outsiders need ID confirmation and the homeowner's permission to enter," the security guard insisted, unmoved by their pleas.Carrie retorted, "I've never heard of such a thing. I told you she's my friend from school!""Sorry, please have the homeowner call us to verify," the guard said impatiently.The residents here were either wealthy or powerful, and even the guards acted superior.Carrie was frustrated and had to leave empty-handed.On their way back, Wendy finally voiced her suspicion, "Who is that woman really? The residents here aren't ordinary. Is she really a call girl?""Wendy, what are you implying? Can she be a rich lady? Come on, no rich ladies steal others' boyfriends," Carrie scoffed.Wendy fell silent at Carrie's response.Shelia interjected, "Since we found nothing today, let's just go back.""Yeah, that's all we can do." Carrie sighed.They failed to find any leads.High in the apartment building, Debra watched the trio leave.The security guard c

    Shelia stood at the classroom door in a white dress, seemingly waiting for someone.After yesterday's incident, Debra had no intention of interacting with Shelia. She pretended not to see and headed towards the classroom."Debra!" Shelia called out.Debra stopped in her tracks, looking coldly at Shelia. "Anything?"Shelia bit her lip and looked hesitant."Debra, I'm sorry about what happened yesterday," Shelia said with her head down. "I didn't expect Carrie to say those things to you. They misunderstood you.""And you?" Debra looked at Shelia with a half-smile, as if she could read Shelia's mind.Shelia shook her head to deny any involvement. "No, not me! How could I think of you like that? I was trying to stop them the whole time and explain."Watching Shelia act so earnestly, Debra smiled in amusement.She was curious to hear what Shelia would say next.As Debra remained silent, Shelia suddenly grabbed Debra's hands with a distressed look. "You don't blame me, right?""Wh

    Seeing the suspicion in Wendy's eyes, Shelia stiffened but quickly put on a look of grievance. "How could I ever lie to you? Why are you suddenly asking me this?"Touched by it, Wendy softened her tone. "I was just asking. Don't take it to heart."Seeing Shelia on the verge of tears, Wendy held her hand and said, "The three of us are good friends. You must never lie to us.""Of course, I would never lie to you." Shelia nodded."Let's go to class," Wendy said, leading her upstairs.From behind, Shelia stared cautiously at Wendy's back.No matter what, she couldn't let Wendy and Carrie find out about her lie before graduation. Otherwise, her school days would be over.Upstairs, there was a crowd gathered at the classroom door. Carrie was also there, but she couldn't push her way through due to her small stature."What's going on?" Wendy asked, stepping forward.Carrie gossiped, "I heard the inspection team from the Ministry of Education is here, and everyone is watching.""Insp

    Shelia wondered what went wrong with Carrie and Wendy."If you don't want to leave, I will," she said, turning to leave.Just then, a student at the door called out, "Shelia! They are looking for you."Shelia's heart skipped a beat.A member of the inspection team came out and pointed at Shelia. "You, stop there."Shelia stiffened and looked back warily. "M-Me?""Are you from Dorm #317?"Shelia nodded, puzzled by the question."Is Carrie your dorm mate?""Yes, she is." Shelia instinctively glanced at Carrie, who was standing not far away.Carrie froze, and a staff member looked at her. "Carrie Cohen?"Carrie stiffly nodded.The staff member glanced down at the anonymous report in his hand. "Someone reported that you fabricated false information and circulated it on campus, severely affecting the atmosphere and infringing upon a female student's reputation."He then presented a flyer with doctored photos to Carrie. "Did you do this?"Carrie was dumbfounded and hurriedly de

    "Who did this?" Debra wondered aloud.If anyone was to be targeted, it should've been Shelia, yet Carrie ended up taking the fall. Despite the uproar, Shelia had emerged unscathed.Seeing Randy pass by with a plate, Debra grabbed his sleeve. "Wait!"His mouth full, Randy turned and mumbled, "What's up?""Did you do it?" Debra asked."Do what?" Randy was puzzled."The inspection team," Debra hinted.Randy pondered. "It's probably Marion.""Would Marion bother with this?"Debra recalled the encounter with Shelia and the others earlier.Maybe it was Marion, after all.But another question surfaced, distracting Debra. "Are you so broke that you're eating here?"This cafeteria didn't seem like Randy's usual spot."Saving where I can," Randy replied tersely.No kidding. Marion had been throwing around billions and keeping the lights on in the entire office building all night. He had splurged on houses and lavish renovations, now planning to build a commercial street.In the la

    Debra nodded. That was what Shelia had said when kneeling before her."When did she have a boyfriend?" Randy asked."How should I know?" Debra shrugged."She has a boyfriend and still clings to Juan. What a woman!" Randy snorted with disdain."She was just saying that for show. I don't believe she would date anyone other than Juan."Debra set down her fork and knife. "I'm done. Enjoy your meal."She stood up to leave. Jordan pushed his plate aside, saying, "I'm done too."Randy mumbled with a mouthful of food, "I'll be done in a bit!"In the evening, Shelia stared at her recent pop quiz results in her dorm, her heart heavy. She had always been a consistent top performer, but this time, her grades had plummeted.Her roommates exclaimed in astonishment, "Shelia, why are you ranking 9th this time? You've always been first. This drop is drastic!"Shelia folded up the report card, forcing a smile. "I wasn't feeling well during the test, so I didn't do so well. It's okay, just a

    Shelia wanted to justify herself, but Juan added, "You're talented, but that doesn't mean you can slack off in your studies.""I'm sorry, I..."Tears welled up in Shelia's eyes, but Juan wasn't going to soften his stance again."You know the rules at Arcane Academy. If your grades continue to decline like this, and you don't make it to the top ten in the next exam, you'll lose your scholarship and have to pay your tuition in full."Shelia knew this rule, but she never expected to hear it from Juan's mouth.She stared at him in shock, unable to respond for a moment.Juan's message was clear. If her grades kept dropping, he wouldn't sponsor her anymore or help her stay at Arcane Academy. All expenses would be covered by herself."Mr. Nichols, I'm sorry. It won't happen again, I promise," Shelia pleaded.Currently, all her expenses at Arcane Academy were covered by Juan, who also gave her ten thousand dollars for allowances each month. She didn't need to work to support herself, f

    "What? Mrs. Houston would never do something like this. Maybe the car hit a nail on the road," replied the guard."What are you waiting for?" Melody sulked. "Get a car to send us back."It was a scorching summer day. She wouldn't just walk home like that.The guard hesitated. "I'm sorry, Madam. Mr. Andrew Potter took all the cars out today. There's nothing available to send you back."Melody's face darkened. "Are you telling me the Nichols family doesn't have a few cars to spare?"She was already upset about giving all her savings to Debra, and this incident was the last straw.The guard explained, "Mr. Andrew Potter is thrifty. I'm sorry, but you might have to walk about two kilometers to the commercial street to catch a ride. Mr. Andrew Potter likes his quiet, so no cars are allowed in this area."Melody was furious. "You did it on purpose."Erica came out of the house. "What are you talking about? We've always been polite to our guests. Well, there is one vehicle available,

    At the Potter Mansion, Melody laid everything she owned on the table."This is all my savings. When can I get that 10% share?" she asked.Debra was amazed by the dazzling collection of treasures. She clicked her tongue. "They say no one in Seamar City understands jewelry better than you. True that. Your lifetime's collection is breathtaking."Melody was not flattered at all. Her mood soured even further.Debra picked up a bracelet from the table. "Take this bracelet, for example. Its value must be millions. I have to say, an impeccable eye."Melody picked up the sarcasm in her tone. "Yes, these things are fine. But now, they're all yours."Debra set the bracelet down, her smile unwavering. "Well, business is business. I need some assurance before I can help you. Now that I've seen your collection, I feel much more at ease. Don't worry. You'll have your 10% share within seven days.""Why do I have to wait seven days?" Melody grumbled, dissatisfied.Debra sighed, "I don't want to

    Melody was weak, her breaths shallow."Joe has been waiting outside," Sophie said. "I'll let him in now."Joe came in and stood by the bed. "Madam, what can I do for you?""I plan to use all my savings to buy back the 10% shares.""Madam..."Joe hesitated, knowing what they were facing. If Melody did that, she would have nothing left."I've made up my mind. Help me up first.""Yes, Madam."Joe assisted her to stand. Melody slowly walked to the safe and used her fingerprint to open it. Inside, there was only a set of keys and a card.Melody took them. "Wait for me downstairs. We'll go to the vault in half an hour."Joe was taken aback. The vault was a secure storage facility for the rich, housing anything from jewelry to property deeds. It was said to be as secure as a national treasury, impossible to breach."Madam, are you planning to give all your money to Debra?" he asked."What else can I do?" Melody replied bitterly. "I can't let the shares fall into outsiders' hands."

    "Will you harm Debra?""Never.""Mark your words."Marion wrapped up the talk and left the room....Downstairs, Debra and Erica were chatting with Randy.When Marion came down, Randy muttered, "What took you so long? Drake's already gone."Marion hummed in response, uninterested in anything about Drake.Debra asked, "Did the conversation not go well?""Seriously?" Randy sighed. "Even you couldn't get Andrew to talk? That guy must have a mouth of steel.""Quit rambling nonsense." Erica gave him a light smack on the arm. "After all this chasing around, we still don't know what the treasure is.""At least we know one thing. Andrew knows the truth, right?" Debra chimed in, looking at Marion for confirmation.Marion sighed, "If he doesn't want to talk, no one can make it.""That's true," Randy muttered. "Honestly, who in this world has a tighter mouth than him? No wonder he works in intelligence. He could be the chief of the CIA.""Would you stop running your mouth?" Erica sc

    "You mean the Buchan family might use this as an excuse to remove Theda?" Erica asked."Their business wasn't big to begin with. It was Theda's skills that gave them status in Wrastow City. I heard Theda likes to go it alone and has offended many people. Those veterans aren't fond of her. Now that she's caused the Buchan family such losses and lost the Nichols family's support, the elders will want her out. To keep them quiet, she needs leverage," explained Debra.Erica stroked her chin. "So, Theda must repay the company's losses, or those veterans will use this as an excuse to remove her."Debra nodded. "Theda holds a 10% stake in the Nichols Group, but it's her personal asset. It doesn't benefit the Buchans. If she can't sell these shares to fill the deficit, the shareholders won't let it go. So, I'm sure when the news of the Nichols Group selling Buchan Entertainment at a low price reaches Wrastow City, the shareholders will demand Theda to pay for the losses.""Brillant! Let's

    "What do you mean?" Debra was confused.She turned to Randy and asked, "Didn't I tell you to pick them up? What's the 250 bucks?""He despised my car and called for a luxury ride. My car was right there in front of him, and the dispatch went to me," Randy explained.Erica grabbed his ear and asked, "When did you start picking up fares behind my back?""Ow, it hurts!" Randy yelped. "I'm just making a little extra money. I've helped Marion run errands a lot. Picking up someone along the way is nothing unusual.""Including girls?" she asked.Randy smiled obsequiously, "Well, it's the system dispatching. Sometimes I don't even know if it's a guy or a girl, but my front seat is reserved only for you."Erica let go of him. "That's more like it."Drake had no time for their banter."When can I take office?""Just wait a little longer.""Wait?""In 24 hours, I'll make sure you take office of the Nichols Group."Erica whispered to Randy, "I've never seen anyone so eager to start wo

    "Forget it," Marion chimed in. "I'll ask him when we get back."Among them, he knew Andrew best.Debra's phone suddenly rang, attracting everyone's attention.She held it up and said, "It's probably a scam call."Marion pressed the Answer button, and Drake's voice came through."Debra? Tell Marion to send someone to pick me up at Seamar City Airport."Randy almost slammed on the brakes. "Wasn't this supposed to be a scam call? Why is this guy here?""Randy?" Drake sneered over the phone. "Let this guy pick me up."He hung up, and Debra gaped at the screen. "Did he change his number?""No, you just never saved it," Marion replied....An hour later, at Seamar City Airport, Drake and Kale were still waiting."Boss, do you think Mrs. Houston is not coming?" Kale asked tentatively.Drake checked his watch. "Marion burned down my house. I haven't settled that score yet. Picking me up is the least he can do.""You're right, boss," Kale agreed.Soon, a black Cadillac pulled up

    Caleb asked, "What was recorded in those accounts? Do you remember?"Debra replied, "The accounts showed some strange discrepancies. The income and expenses for the Fraizer, Osborne, and Houston families didn't match up. There were big differences in food and goods records, with a combined loss of 1.2 million. Meanwhile, the Potter family gained the same amount that same year. Marion and I believed the three families were subsidizing the Potter family.""Subsidizing the Potter family," Caleb muttered in thought. "Let me think this over."Randy blurted, "What's there to think about? It's obvious. The Potter family's leader was obsessed with intelligence gathering and clueless about everything else. In the end, we had to cover for them."Erica smacked the back of his head. "Do you ever think before you speak? Look at Andrew now. Does he look like someone who doesn't know how to make money?""It doesn't mean his dad or ancestors were good at it," Randy retorted.While they were bick

    "I know my dad. If there was a family heirloom, he might have stacked it away," Randy said thoughtfully."Why?" Debra was puzzled.Randy shook his head. "Not everyone is like Marion's parents. They were true love to each other."Debra didn't get his meaning. Erica leaned in and whispered, "Randy's parents had an arranged marriage. They both had someone they liked.""I see," Debra murmured.It was just surprising that Randy turned out so carefree despite the situation in his family.Randy added, "I'll go home and ask my dad. If we find it, then we can confirm that the Nichols family took the gem from the Frazier family."Everyone nodded in agreement.Debra turned to Caleb. "Grandpa, you said these four rings are the symbols of the Four Great Families. What's the secret behind them? Is it the treasure of Seamar City?"Caleb sat down, recalling the past. "The treasure of Seamar City is just a legend. My father came here during the wars of the last century. The four families each
