Chapter 474
The next morning, Debra woke up in her apartment to see some news notifications.
The headlines were ablaze with reports that Shella, who had just suffered a miscarriage, had been taken from the hospital to the police station under public scrutiny.
The city was abuzz with speculation about the truth behind Shelia’s miscarriage and her subsequent arrest. Many speculated that Juan, still hung up on Shella, had spent a fortune to bail her out.
Debra’s phone chimed with an incoming call. She picked it up to see Erica’s name flashing on the screen. “Debra, I’m at the Nichols Group headquarters with a hoe. Do you want to join me?”
“What?”
Debra’s head was still groggy, and she struggled to catch up. When the information sank in, she jumped out of bed, quickly getting dressed as she replied, “Don’t act rashly. I’m on my way.”
Marion had been busy with family matters and had been called away by Caleb, leaving Erica to her own devices.
In Seamar City, there was nothing Erica couldn’t do.
Debra drove as fast as she dared. As she pulled up to the building, she found shouting in her car.
“What’s Juan thinking? Bailing Shelia out? Is he out of his mind?
She didn’t know much about what happened last night, Randy, sitting in the passenger seat, tried to calm her down.
“Keep it down. We’re on the Nichols family’s turf.”
“So what? Does that mean we can’t speak? He says he likes Debra, but look at this.”
“Alright, let’s not make things worse.”
Unwilling to give up, Erica turned to Debra. “You made the right choice, not picking him. Marion is way
better.”
“Juan always liked Shelia. I’m not surprised by his actions, so don’t be too angry.” Debra offered a small smile. “Alright, you’ve vented your anger. Go home now and take the hoe with you.”
“What exactly happened last night? I got the invitation but didn’t go. How dare they bully you like that? Shella lost her baby when she tried to set you up, didn’t she?”
Erica was quick to piece things together. She knew Debra wouldn’t be easily bullied and figured that Debra had exposed Shelia’s scheme at the dinner, leading to Shelia being taken away this morning
Debra nodded. “Shelia and Edgar teamed up to ruin me, but they failed. I had Sophie install cameras in the house to prevent Shelia from framing me, but…”
She hadn’t expected Juan to ball Shelia out. It seemed Shella still held some sway with him. In contrast, Juan had repeatedly abandoned her without a shred of compassion.
She added, “Anyway, let him do whatever he wants. I don’t care and don’t want to. I hope he’s still hung up

on Shelia. That way, we can divorce sooner.”
The divorce had dragged on for so long, with both families at odds. Juan was the only one unwilling to let go, but it seemed he had finally reached his breaking point.
