Chapter 964
Juan rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. He must have sinned in a past life to end up teaching someone like Garland.
โAre you feeling unwell?โ
โBeing your mentor is the biggest regret of my life.โ
Juan turned and left the room, leaving Garland dumbfounded. The door slammed shut behind him. Garland muttered incredulously, โBut you said I was doing well.โ
Juan drove to the Legacy Hotel and saw Drake standing in the cold. His jacket and tie had been torn off. He was directing a tow truck to take away his beloved car. He felt a pang of envy as the Porsche pulled up. Juan rolled down the window, taking in his sorry plight. โMr. Lowe, having a rough day?โ
Drake couldnโt muster a smile. โThe whole fucking world is against me.โ
Kale opened the car door for Juan. โPlease, Mr. Nichols.โ
โPark the car in the underground garage. I donโt want anyone to mess with my wheels,โ Juan said.
That was adding insult to injury. Drake cursed under his breath, โDebraโs bad taste in men!โ
Drake took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. โHave you heard Fermin caused a scene at my engagement party tonight?โ
Juan nodded. โItโs all over the media. Videos, photos, and articles were released fifteen minutes ago. Hard to miss.โ
โWhat?โ Drake pulled out his phone and saw the news.
โBoss, Iโll have the news taken down,โ Kale offered.
โToo late. The news has spread, and everyone knows,โ Drake growled. โNext time I see Fermin, Iโll make him pay.โ
Juan remained silent, thinking that Garland and Drake were equally stupid.
Drake looked up at Juan. โFermin took all my spies. Do you have anything to say about that?โ
Juan replied calmly, โI donโt even know them. You wouldnโt suspect me, would you?โ
Drake pressed, โYou might not know them, but you know my operations. With your abilities, it wouldnโt be hard to find out more. Besides, it was your idea for me to get engaged to Cathryn. Now look at this mess. Itโs hard not to suspect you.โ
โSo, you called me here to blame me,โ Juan sighed. โIt was my idea, but you made the decision. Besides, my family has no influence here. I couldnโt possibly know your contacts. And I have no connection to the Eaton family. How would I know Fermin would target you?โ
Drake was about to argue, but Juan continued, โYour tense relationship with Miss Eaton caused the whole mess. You canโt just blame me for your mistakes.โ
