From Heartbreak to Happily Ever After Novel

Debra walked into the company, while Juan’s face was deathly pale.

Joe, who had just arrived, draped a cloak over Juan. “Mr. Nichols, it’s too cold out here. You’ve drunk a lot. Let’s get you home quickly.”

“She knows everything…”

“What?”

“She already knows about me and Shelia…”

Juan’s voice was barely above a whisper.

had thought that by cutting ties with Shelia, he could forget about what happened that night.

But now it seemed that what was done couldn’t be undone.

“Mr. Nichols, let’s leave first…”

Joe felt sorry for Juan.

Juan’s expression darkened. “Why is Shelia at Tyson Enterprises? Find

out for me.”

“Mr. Nichols, why not ask Ms. Miles first?”

“I don’t want anything to do with that woman anymore!”

He blamed himself for being kind and helping Shelia back then.

Meanwhile, Debra had just entered the president’s office when she was suddenly embraced tightly.

Surprised, she looked up to see Marion, recalling the scene where she had collapsed into Marion’s arms after being drugged.

Blushing, Debra tried to break free, but Marion held her tighter. “Was Juan holding you like this downstairs?”

Debra was taken aback. “You saw that?”

She had looked around but hadn’t noticed Marion watching from the office window upstairs.

Marion chuckled softly. “Luckily you pushed him away. Otherwise, I would have gone down to give him a good scolding.”

“Marion, he’s my husband in name only. Why would you hit him?”

“You’re defending him?”

“I’m not defending him…”

“So you’re implying I should steal you away.”

“Marion!”

Blushing, Debra pushed Marion away. Marion’s eyes softened, showing affection. “I was just joking. Don’t be mad.”

“You can’t joke like that again!”

“Stealing someone’s spouse isn’t a joke.” Marion paused before adding, “I mean it seriously.”

Realizing Marion wasn’t joking, Debra tried to calm herself. “You should ask for my opinion before stealing me away. I haven’t agreed to anything.”

“So I’m solemnly asking for your opinion now.”

Marion leaned in, their breaths mingling, the quiet surroundings seemingly amplifying their heartbeats.

“Ms. Frazier, would you accept my pursuit?” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Debra’s heart raced.

Though she had been married to Juan, she had never been confessed to so seriously.

Marion removed the family crest from his chest and placed it in Debra’s hand. “This is the emblem of the Houston family head. By giving it to you, I entrust my life to you.”
