Chapter 266

Melody stood up and rebuked, “What do you think you are doing? This is my house,”

Ralph, usually timid and eager to avoid confrontation, held his ground this time. “Debra married into your family, and Juan’s actions have led to her being kidnapped. We still haven’t found her, Can’t I be angry? If anything happens to her, I won’t let you off the hook.”

“This is crazy! You’re going too far!” Melody clutched her chest, her breath coming in short gasps.

She had been respected all her life, and this was the fir had dared to speak to her in such a manner.

She turned to Sophie and ordered, “Go call security and have these two thrown out.”

Rosalie tried to intervene, placing a restraining hand on Ralph’s arm. ” Honey, why are you getting so worked up?”

Ralph shrugged her off and demanded, “The Nichols family must give me an explanation today.”

Noticing Sophie’s astonishment, Melody yelled, “What are you waiting for? Get the guards here!”

“Yes, madam.”

Sophie was startled into action, but Juan stopped her.

He stepped forward and addressed Ralph, “This was my oversight. I’m responsible for Debra’s trouble. You can do whatever you want to me.”

His genuine remorse relieved Ralph’s anger a bit when Shelia chimed in, “Juan, how can you say that? It’s not your fault. Blame Debra’s bad luck. You’ve been searching for her day and night. Why should you be

blamed?”

Juan snapped, “Shut up!”

Shelia was startled into silence. Ralph, however, turned his attention to her. “So, you’re the college student rumored to be kept by Juan Locks like the rumors are true. As soon as Debra had trouble, Juan couldn’t wait to bring you home. Well done!”

He turned to Rosalie, his expression hardening. “Let’s go. From today on, we’ll replace Debra ourselves. The Frazier family and the Nichols family are sworn enemies now.”

He stormed out of the house, leaving Rosalie staring after him in shock. Juan was a powerful figure in Seamar City, and they were far from being his match.

She smiled awkwardly at everyone and chased after Ralph.

Melody sneered, her voice filled with disdain. “Who do they think they are? How dare they flaunt their power in front of me? Juan, don’t show any mercy to them. Let them know that offending us won’t end well.”

Juan’s mind was in turmoil. He rubbed his temples, trying to ease the throbbing pain. “Grandma, you should rest.”

He picked up his suit jacket and left the house, with Joe following closely behind him.

“Sir!”

Juan paused, turning to face him. “Do whatever it takes to compensate the Frazier family. If our projects with them fall through, they’ll suffer losses. id a way to make it up to them.”

Joe hesitated. “But we’re in a tough spot too. Without the Frazier family’s connections and support, many projects might fall through.”
