Chapter 93
โMadam! Youโre finally back!โ Debra rarely saw Sophie so emotional. Clearly, she had suffered greatly in the past few days.
โSophie, is Juan home?โ
โYes, Mr. Nichols is home,โ Sophie hesitated, then added, โBut that vixen is here too.โ Mentioning Shelia made Sophie grit her teeth in hatred.
Debra was surprised Shelia remained after Melodyโs intervention. Juan must truly favor Shelia, defying even his grandmotherโs wishes.
Debra tried the fingerprint scanner at the front door, but it failed.
โMr. Nichols changed the lock codes last night,โ Sophie explained, then entered the new code, granting Debra access.
Juan was in the living room with Shelia, who was studying under his patient guidance. They appeared like a couple in love.
Sophie cleared her throat and announced in a strained tone, โSir, Mrs. Nichols is back.โ
Juan glanced at Debra indifferently, as if she were a stranger. โWho allowed you to enter my house?โ he questioned disdainfully.
โJuan, take it easy. Maybe Debra left something behind,โ Shelia said, smiling sweetly at Debra. โYou could have asked Sophie to mail it to you.โ
Debra ignored her and asked Juan, โYou didnโt go to the office today?โ
Juan snorted, โWho are you to ask?โ
โIโm not trying to control you. Joe called, saying he couldnโt reach you, so he asked me to deliver a message.โ
โIโm busy now,โ Juan said nonchalantly.
Debra looked at Shelia, who was asking Juan for help with her studies. โBusy with this?โ
Shelia chimed in, โI asked Juan to help me because my grades dropped.โ
โYou donโt need to explain to her,โ Juan said gently, patting Sheliaโs head. โFocus on your work.โ
Shelia blushed and resumed her studies. Debra grew impatient. โJuan, the company is yours, not mine. If Joe hadnโt called, I wouldnโt have returned. Whether you go to the office or not is none of my business.โ
She turned to leave, pausing to add, โIโll have the divorce papers drawn up soon. Please sign them when you receive them.โ
Juan froze at her words.
Shelia couldnโt hide her excitement. She had been waiting for this moment. โDebra and Juan are finally getting divorced!โ
