Chapter 89
Erica was already fast asleep, unaware of Randyโs words. The carโs warm air made Debra drowsy in the back seat, deepening the flush on her cheeks. Marion reached back, grabbed a blanket, and gently draped it over her. โGet some sleep. Weโll be there soon,โ he said. Debra nodded. She was exhausted and soon dozed off, leaning against the car window.

Juan closed his laptop, and the room felt silently oppressive. He rubbed his temples and picked up his phone, but there were still no messages from Debra. A moment later, Joe called back. Juan answered, โWhereโs Debra?โ
โMrs. Nichols seems to be at a nightclub.โ
โA nightclub?โ Juan frowned, thinking, โDebra rarely goes to such places. The last time she did was to meet Jordan. With the recent online uproar, how could she risk going to such a place again?โ
โI think so. It was hard to hear clearly, but it was very noisy. Mrs. Nichols seemed drunk and unwilling to come back,โ Joe confirmed.
The news irritated Juan. โSend someone to find her! Going to a nightclub in the middle of the night. Has she lost her mind?โ
โSir, Iโve already sent people to look for her. We should have news soon.โ They had connections at all the well-known nightclubs in Seamar City, so it wouldnโt be difficult to find out where someone in their circle was.
Juan ordered, โCall me as soon as you find her.โ
โYes, sir.โ
Juan hung up, feeling stifled. Just then, there was a knock on the door. Shelia opened it and saw Juan grabbing his suit jacket. She asked in surprise, โWhere are you going in the middle of the night?โ
โIโm going out for a bit. You should go to bed.โ Juan didnโt explain much.
Shelia, holding a cup of coffee, said, โIs it work-related? I just made some coffee. Have it before you go. Itโll help you stay alert.โ
โIโm going to find Debra.โ

Shelia froze. โDebra?โ
โYes.โ Juan picked up his car keys. โPut the coffee down and sleep. If you need anything, ask Sophie.โ
โBut Iโฆโ Shelia wanted to say more, but Juan left in a hurry. Shelia felt a pang of bitterness. Debra had hurt her. Despite knowing that, Juan still went out in the middle of the night to find Debra. She didnโt understand. Before Debra showed up, she had been the only one Juan cared about.
Juan drove through the bustling, neon-lit streets. He answered the call, and Joe reported hesitantly, โAccording to the owner of Glamor Club, Mrs. Nichols went there with Miss Mathis. They were later picked up by Randy and Marion.โ
Juan paused before replying, โI see.โ Hanging up, he reeled from the news and sneered. As he suspected, Debra was maintaining an unusual relationship with Marion. That explains why Debra, who used to chase after him, is now eager for a divorce. She has hooked up with Marion. Humph! Letโs wait and see!
Juan turned the car around and drove back home.
