Chapter 760

“She left this morning,” Drake replied with a smirk. “What, are you scared?”

“Of course, I am!” Debra whispered. “If Miss Sharp finds out, you’ll be in trouble.”

“Trouble? You’re the one in trouble here,” Drake said dryly, giving her a pointed look.

“Am I wrong?” Debra crossed her arms, narrowing her eyes. “Is Miss Sharp more beautiful than me?”

Drake’s gaze swept over her, appraising. “Your waist is slimmer, and your face is more delicate. But you’re more cunning.”

“Thank you for the compliment,” she said.

“It wasn’t a compliment,” Drake replied, turning away. “You have five minutes. Be downstairs and in the car.”

Debra sighed and hurried to follow. Kale, waiting by the door, shot Drake a glance.

“Boss, didn’t you promise Miss Sharp that you’d let Debra go?”

“I was just saying that to keep her happy. You take it seriously?”

It was a tactic to soothe Yvonne’s jealousy. He would never give up a useful pawn like Debra for that.

“I understand.”

Debra overheard their conversation and stepped forward. “Were you two talking about me behind my back?”

“Yeah,” Drake replied without missing a beat. “We said that you’re ugly and conceited. Satisfied?”

He quickened his pace, and she had to hurry after him.

In the car, Drake remained silent. Debra couldn’t stand it anymore and finally asked, “It’s not even evening yet. Why did you drag me out here so early? What’s going on?”

Drake didn’t answer, and she pressed, “At least tell me where we’re going.”

“The mall,” Drake snapped. “Now shut up.”

Debra frowned, utterly baffled.

When they arrived at the mall, Drake got out first. As Debra fumbled to open the door herself, she was surprised when Drake reached over and opened it for her. She blinked, looking up at him in confusion.

“What are you staring at? Get out.”

“Okay,” Debra muttered, stepping out quickly. She stared at the mall’s grand entrance, puzzled. “You’re not planning to take me shopping, are you?”

Drake scoffed, “Take you shopping? In your dreams.”

Just then, two rows of well-dressed staff rushed over to greet them. The manager stepped forward, bowing slightly. “Mr. Lowe, everything you requested is ready. We’re just waiting for your decision.”

“Good,” Drake replied, turning to Debra. “Follow me.”

Debra trailed behind him, her mind spinning. ‘What is it that requires Drake’s personal inspection?’

They entered the mall and were led straight to an exclusive piano store. Inside, the pianos on display were exquisite. Each one was a piece of art.

“Pick the best one,” Drake said, settling on a plush sofa.

Debra blinked, looking at the luxurious instruments. “You want me to choose from all of these?”

These pianos weren’t normally found in stores. She believed they had been flown in specifically for this occasion.

“Yes. Can’t decide?”

“Is it for me?”

“Are you going to pick or not? If not, we’re leaving.”
