Chapter 25
Rosalie, not much older than her, was alluring. After divorcing his first wife, Ralph married Rosalle, who was seen as a mistress by the Frazier family.
Ralph adored Rosalie, so the others had to tolerate her
Rosalie always opposed Debra.
In her last life, Debra tolerated Rosalie for Ralph’s sake But when the Frazier family went broke, Rosalie kicked Ralph out and took all his assets.
This time, Debra wouldn’t be lenient with this woman.
“Rosalie’s aren’t pleasant, but this is our family banquet. You’ve been married for a month, and Juan should have come,” said a distant member of the family.
“Yeah, should we call him? We can wait a bit more,” others echoed.
Debra knew their intentions.
They wanted to use this banquet to cozy up to Juan for business.
“If you feel awkward, may I call on your behalf? We’re family after all, and Juan will meet with us sooner or later.”
Rosalie watched the show.
Everyone in Seamar City knew Debra and Juan’s marriage was based on convenience. Juan didn’t like Debra, but she had been clinging to him.
Juan liked another woman.
“It’s alright. Juan can’t make it due to work. I don’t want to disturb him,” Debra said.
“Is he working or with someone else?” Rosalie insinuated.
Debra gave her a cold glance.
But Rosalie continued, “I saw him shopping for women’s products with a girl today. It seems those things aren’t for you.”
Ralph turned serious and frowned. “Debra, what’s going on? Is Juan keeping a mistress?”
“Ralph…” Debra wanted to explain when the door suddenly opened.
Juan, in a suit, entered with his bodyguards, each holding a gift box.
Sorry, everyone. I’m late,” he said.
Surprised, Debra asked in a low voice, “Why are you here?”
Juan ignored her question and took her hand. “Got delayed picking gifts. Luckily, I’m not too late.”
Rosalie was shocked by Juan’s arrival.

She had seen him at a women’s store, with a girl.
Ralph eased up. “Juan, it’s good you’re here, but these..
“My gifts for everyone,” Juan smiled. “I meant to surprise Debra, but I almost messed up.”
Then he glanced at Rosalie.
Rosalie said weakly, “I saw you shopping with a girl today. That couldn’t be a mistake.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
