Chapter 918
Melody had been staying with them for days, refusing to leave. She claimed to be looking for Juan, but her actions suggested otherwise. She constantly cooked and made tea for Bert, reminiscing about old times. Anyone with eyes could see her true intentions. However, Bert, still devoted to his late wife, would never be swayed by Melody.
Juan replied, โFocus on your studies. Donโt ask unnecessary questions.โ
Just then, Lizaโs screams echoed through the house. โDad! I want to break off the engagement with Drake.โ
Garland covered his ears. โDonโt mind her. Thatโs my sister. Sheโs always been spoiled. Just avoid her.โ
Juan paid no attention until Liza shouted, โDad, you must help me teach Debra a lesson. Not satisfied with having Marion, she is now seducing Drake. This is outrageous.โ
Juanโs eyes narrowed at the mention of Debra.
Garland muttered, โDebraโฆโ
The name rang a bell. It seemed to be the woman who bought his news agency in Seamar City.
Juan stood up and walked to the door. Garland quickly warned, โDonโt go out, or your grandmother might see you.โ
Juan paused and opened the door a crack.
Bert emerged from his room. โDonโt cry, sweetheart. You said Debra seduced Drake? Are you sure youโre not mistaken?โ
โHow could I be mistaken? Drake promised to kick Debra out, but today, he gave her expensive jewelry and took her to a banquet. She must have seduced him. First, she stole Cathrynโs beloved man, and now she is after my fiancรฉ,โ Liza complained.
Juan sensed the gravity of the situation and rushed to the sofa. He grabbed his luggage from under the bed and started changing clothes.
Garland covered his eyes. โBro, why are you changing clothes now?โ
Juan ignored him and quickly put on a mask, knowing time was of the essence.
โGive me your car keys.โ
โWhere are you going?โ
โTo the banquet.โ
โDo you even know where it is?โ
โLegacy Hotel,โ
โHow do you know that?โ
โJust stop asking questions.โ
Juan snatched the car keys from Garland and slipped out the door.
Lizaโs outburst drew Melody out of her room. Melody had always disliked Debra and sneered when she heard about Debra seducing Drake.
โDebra is a shameless hussy,โ she said. โFirst, she was involved with Juan. Then she hooked up with Marion and even Andrew. Now, sheโs after Drake. Bert, you do something to stop her.โ
