Chapter 332 + 25 Bonus
Michaelโs senses immediately went on high alert as the car deviated from its intended route. The driver replied in a low voice, โMs. Frazier, thereโs no need for concern. Our master simply wishes to see you. Thereโs no ill intent.โ
โYour master?โ Debraโs mind raced. She didnโt know many people in Seamar City, and only a handful could know her itinerary and replace her driver.
While lost in thought, Michael pulled out a small knife hidden in her sleeve. Debra quickly grabbed his hand. Michael frowned, his eyes filled with concern and a silent question. Debra subtly shook her head. The driver didnโt seem to harbor any malicious intent. If they wanted to harm her, they could have done so without such elaborate measures. Since they wanted to see her, it meant they had something to say. The long night stretched ahead, and Debra decided to meet this mysterious man.
The car soon pulled up to a familiar location. As Debraโs eyes landed on the house's sign, she realized the person wanting to meet her was Andrew.
โWhereโs the knife?โ Debra suddenly asked. Michael was confused. She explained, โI donโt want to meet him.โ
Though her interactions with Andrew had been limited, she knew his character. He was an unscrupulous person she could never quite read. Each time she saw him, she was reminded of the chilling incident when he had ordered someone thrown from the second floor. The memory sent a shiver down her spine.
โIโll take you away,โ Michael said. But as he stepped out of the car, two security guards subdued him. โSorry, Mr. Austin. Our master wants to meet Ms. Frazier alone.โ
Michael was furious, but he knew he couldnโt overcome so many people and take Debra away. Debra rubbed her temples, knowing she had no choice but to meet Andrew. She turned to the butler. โIโll go with you, but you mustnโt touch my people.โ
The butler offered a polite, reassuring smile. โMs. Frazier, donโt worry. Mr. Austin is a guest. Weโll treat him well. Our master just wants to have a few words with you. You donโt need to be afraid. Once the conversation is over, weโll send both you and Mr. Austin back.โ
Debra braced herself for the upcoming meeting, but the thought of facing Andrew still made her skin crawl. The Potter Mansion looked the same as it had during her last visit, when she had celebrated Jordanโs birthday. Though she occasionally kept in touch with Jordan, he had been unpredictable lately, often disappearing without a word. She hadnโt thought much of it until now.
As they walked, Debra asked the butler, โWhereโs Jordan? Why isnโt he home?โ
The butler replied, โMr. Jordan Potter went abroad a few months ago and hasnโt returned.โ
โAbroad?โ Debra echoed, her steps faltering slightly. She hadnโt known about this. Jordan had never mentioned going abroad to her.
The butler led Debra upstairs, and she soon found herself standing before Andrew, who was in a wheelchair. Andrew was sitting in the same spot on the rooftop, his back turned to her.
Debra walked over and asked, โMr. Andrew Potter, you wanted to see me?โ
Andrew slightly raised his hand, and the butler brought over a chair, placing it next to him. At Andrewโs gesture, Debra stiffly sat down, subconsciously trying to put as much distance between them as possible.
