Chapter 295
Marion explained, โI promised to take responsibility because Shawn entrusted it to me on his deathbed. What were you thinking?โ
Randy stared, dumbfounded. โWhat? Entrusted on his deathbed?โ He realized how poorly Marion communicated.
Erica huffed, โWhy didnโt you speak clearly? Any woman would misunderstand that.โ
Randy, grasping the situation's gravity, urged Marion. โYou should go find Debra. If you delay any longer, she might cut ties with you completely.โ
Marion was already striding away, disappearing into the crowd. Randy watched him go, muttering, โWhatโs the point of having a mouth if you canโt use it properly?โ
Debra slid into her car's backseat. Ben asked, โMadam, are you going home?โ
โYes.โ
Debraโs phone rang. She glanced at the screen, expecting Marionโs name, but it was Rosalie.
She answered, and before she could speak, Rosalieโs panicked voice filled the line. โDebra, something bad happened.โ
โAunt Rosalie, calm down and tell me what happened.โ
โIt was Ralph. He was taken by Juanโs men.โ
โWhat?โ Debra was astonished.
โJuanโs men burst in and took him,โ Rosalie cried. โJuan gave me an address and told me to inform you. If you donโt go, heโll kill Ralph.โ
Chapter 205
โGive me the address.โ
โItโs Room 8023 at the Sapphire Hotel.โ
Debraโs anxious expression vanished, replaced by a cold calm. โAlright, Iโll head over there,โ she said, ending the call.
Ben, having overheard, looked at her through the rearview mirror. โMadam, are you going to the Sapphire Hotel?โ
โNo, back home.โ
โBut Juanโฆโ
โIf Juan really took Ralph, why would he want to meet me at a hotel? Wouldnโt it be more effective to threaten me at home? Somethingโs wrong here.โ
She knew Rosalie was up to something. She wouldnโt be foolish enough to trust someone like Rosalie. Finding out what was happening at home was her priority.
Soon, the car arrived at the Frazier family home. Debra entered, hearing Rosalie and Stanley talking inside.
โIf Debra is back by Juanโs side, the divorce wonโt happen.โ
Debra stepped into the room, her eyes narrowing as she saw Rosalieโs smile, completely at odds with her earlier crying voice. Rosalie heard the footsteps and turned, her smile faltering.
Debra sneered, her voice dripping with disdain. โAunt Rosalie, you really put on a good show.โ
Rosalie panicked, speaking awkwardly. โDebra, how come youโฆโ
โHow come I am here?โ Debraโs eyes grew cold. โWhat are you planning, Aunt Rosalie?โ
