“Mrs. Nichols Sr., just now, Juan mentioned Debra falling into the sea. Is she…” Hester muttered.

Melody’s expression hardened. “Good that she’s dead. If she’s dead, he’ll finally give up.”

She didn’t believe Juan would die for any woman. He couldn’t die, and she wouldn’t allow it.

The rescue team had been scouring the vast ocean for three days and nights, their search area expanding with each passing hour. Yet, there was no sign of Debra.

News of Debra’s fall reached the Frazier family. Ralph paced anxiously, but Rosalie was elated.

If Debra was dead, the agreement they had made would be null and void.

The family fortune would go to her and her son.

She watched Ralph’s frenzy with a cold glint in her eyes. ‘Ralph, you were so heartless to us, so don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

On the third day, Juan was a picture of despair. No one could survive three days in the sea.

Joe took a deep breath before continuing, “Sir, it’s been three days. There’s no hope left. Even if the rescue team continues, it’s just a waste of manpower and resources. And with McKinney Group’s recent

“Who says it’s a waste of manpower and resources? Who says there’s no hope?” Juan’s eyes flashed dangerously. “Tell them to keep searching. Hire a professional rescue team if you have to. We must replace Debra, even if it’s just her body.”

Joe was silent for a moment but eventually nodded. “Yes, sir.”

Juan rubbed his temples, trying to ease the throbbing pain. He had been too emotional earlier. Now, with a calmer mind, he asked, “What about the kidnappers? Have they been caught?”

Joe hesitated before answering, “They’ve escaped overseas. Our people can’t replace them. But they were carrying counterfeit money from us. Dealing with so much counterfeit cash isn’t easy.”

Juan’s gaze turned dangerous. “So, nothing at all?”

“Yes.”

“What do I pay you for? You can’t even handle this small matter?”

“Sorry, sir.” Joe lowered his head even further.

“My home address and phone number aren’t known to just anyone. Investigate who helped them. They couldn’t have taken Debra so smoothly,” Juan analyzed.

“We’re already investigating. I believe we’ll have results soon,” Joe reassured him

Hi phone rang just then. Joe answered the call, and within seconds, his expression brightened.

Juan slammed his hand on the table. “Bring them in. Now!”

“Okay.”

In no time, Clarissa was brought into the office.

It was the first time she had seen Juan. Looking at the gloomy man before her, she tried to maintain a facade of innocence. “Who are you? Why have you captured me? What do you want?”
