Chapter 241

The waiter swiftly brought Debra a new glass, but Shelia felt offended. She knew Debra was provoking her.

“Shelia, have you ordered?” Leanna emerged from the restroom, her voice cutting through the tension.

Shelia shook her head. “Not yet.”

Leanna’s eyebrows furrowed in disapproval. “What’s going on? You can’t even handle something as simple as ordering. Forget it! I’ll take care of it.” Her tone carried an air of authority. The others present realized she was not Shelia’s colleague, but her supervisor.

Shelia blushed with embarrassment and quickly returned to her seat. Juan knew Debra had done this deliberately to make Shelia's life difficult. He whispered, “Are you upset?”

“No,” Debra replied, swirling her wine glass. “I just don’t like people touching my things.”

Juan smiled wryly. “I thought you might be jealous. Seems I was overthinking.”

Debra had never before arbitrarily troubled Shelia. He had initially thought jealousy motivated her actions, but now it seemed she was simply emphasizing her identity as Mrs. Nichols in front of everyone. This, however, pleased him. He picked up some food for her and said, “If someday you were bothering her out of jealousy, I’d be quite happy.”

The remaining text appears to be unrelated and contains numerous errors and uninterpretable sequences. It cannot be meaningfully incorporated into a revised version of Chapter 241.
