Chapter 113
โWill do,โ Jordan shouted at the group. โWhy arenโt you leaving yet?โ
Carrieโs expression shifted. โMr. Andrew Potter, your family sent the invitation. Weโve just arrived. Why are you asking us to leave? Is this how you treat your guests?โ
Debra thought the girl remarkably blunt. No one dared be so bold with Andrew.
โWould you like to experience the Potter familyโs hospitality?โ Andrew raised his eyes, his gaze deep and unfathomable. A faint smile played on his lips, yet his words sent shivers down everyoneโs spines. Several black-clad bodyguards immediately stepped forward, seizing the people and forcibly removing them. Carrieโs high heels clattered to the floor as she struggled. โLet go! What are you doing? Let go!โ
The hall quickly fell silent, as if the commotion had never happened.
โSorry for the disturbance,โ Andrew said, his gentleness restored.
Debra couldnโt help but assess Andrew. In her past life, she hadn't interacted with him much, but seeing him now, she understood why the Potter family thrived under his leadership. He was truly unfathomable, and that very quality was terrifying.
โMr. Houston, letโs talk elsewhere,โ Andrew said, his gaze settling on Marion.
Erica whispered to Debra, โAndrew has always been mature beyond his years. Though weโve known each other since childhood, weโve barely exchanged a few words.โ
โAre Marion and Andrew close?โ Debra asked.
โKind of. Iโm not quite sure,โ Erica replied, pausing. Recalling Carrieโs outburst, she added with dissatisfaction, โMarion remained silent throughout the chaos. Even Randy spoke up. I donโt know what was going on with him.โ
โThatโs not the way to pursue a girl,โ Debra chuckled. Marion had likely remained silent because he knew she had orchestrated the events. Revealing his identity wouldn't have been as entertaining. He was waiting for her to speak.
Debra leaned lazily against the table. It was a shame Sheila had escaped; Debra hadnโt even had a chance to speak before the drama ended. But it was alright; Sheilaโs lies had been exposed. What happened would inevitably become gossip, reaching Juanโs ears.
In the hospital corridor, Joe hurried back to the ward after a phone call. โSir, there seems to be trouble at the Potter familyโs house.โ
Juan gestured for silence. Glancing at Sheila, still unconscious on the hospital bed, he whispered, โLetโs talk outside.โ
โOkay.โ Joe hesitated before leaving.
Juan closed the door. โGo on.โ
โItโs Mrs. Nichols.โ
Juan frowned. โWhat trouble has she caused again?โ
โMiss Milesโ classmates accused her of being an escort, saying many unpleasant things. Mr. Andrew Potter promptly ejected them.โ
Juanโs frown deepened. โAccusing Debra of being an escort? Would she just stand there and be accused?โ
