CHAPTER 344
In the dimly lit room, moonlight streamed through the window, casting a silvery glow on Shelia’s skin.
She removed her top, revealing her pale chest. Juan averted his gaze, but Shelia grabbed his hand. “Juan, I’m your woman. Why are you avoiding me?”
She pressed closer, attempting to ignite his desire, but Juan pushed her away abruptly.
Shelia stumbled back onto the bed, her eyes wide with shock. Juan looked at her as if she were something distasteful, his voice cold and unyielding.
“I warned you. Since you refuse to behave, you’ll move out tomorrow.”
“Juan!” Shelia’s voice trembled, but Juan didn’t look back as he strode out of the bedroom.
The next day, Debra received an unexpected piece of news. “Shelia moved out of the Nichols family’s house?” –
“Yes, someone saw her leave early this morning.”
“Did Melody agree to this?”
*Shelia offended the Potter family. Melody probably had to consider Mr. Andrew Potter’s influence,” Ben replied firmly.
Debra thought about it and believed it.
After all, the place Shelia moved into was originally her marital home with Juan. It was inappropriate for a mistress to live there. If the media found out, it would cause another scandal.
“There’s another thing.”
“What is it?”
‘Mr. Houston and Mr. Osborne have business to attend to, so…”
“They’ve left again?”
Debra was used to Marion’s mysterious comings and goings. Still, she was curious about his mission this
time.
But it didn’t matter much. With the Frazier Group merged with the McKinney Group, things were on track. There shouldn’t be any issues.
She handed some documents to Ben. “The Potter family will be partnering with us. Get the documents ready.”
“Got it.”
Suddenly, a commotion outside the office interrupted their conversation.
“Officers, this must be a misunderstanding.”
Two police officers burst into the office, demanding, “Which one of you is Debra Frazier?”
“I am.”
The officers exchanged a look before one of them approached her and put her in handcuffs. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
“We’ve received reports of bribery and embezzlement. We’re taking you in for questioning.”
Ben was shocked. “Bribery and embezzlement? Officers, this must be a mistake. I demand a lawyer.”
The officer nodded. “You can get a lawyer, but she needs to come with us now.”
As she was escorted out, Debra could feel the weight of the employees‘ stares. She scanned the crowd; her thoughts whirled with possibilities.
She managed the finances meticulously, leaving no room for error. This accusation seemed baseless, yet the police clearly had evidence.
She thought, ‘Could it be Shelia? Cathryn? Or even Juan? No, it couldn’t be any of them. They don’t have access to the Frazier Group’s financial records.
