Chapter 96

As soon as Debra got into the car, Joe pleaded, “Madam, please go easy on Mr. Nichols. He won’t divorce you.”

Debra closed her eyes. “When did the old lady arrive?”

“This afternoon,” Joe replied.

It was just as she had guessed.

Melody must have caused a stene. Once things calmed down, they called her back.

Melody was always domineering and wouldn’t tolerate any disobedience.

By now, Shelia should have been sent away.

The car stopped outside the Nichols family’s house, and the gate was open. Debra walked in, seeing Sophie standing by respectfully. Melody was sitting on the sofa.

Juan was kneeling on the floor, while Shelia was nowhere to be seen.

Melody asked, “Is everything packed?”

“Yes, Mrs. Nichols Sr.” Sophie pushed out a suitcase. These are all Miss Miles’s belongings.”

Melody turned to Joe and asked, “How much of this was bought with Juan’s money?”

Joe nervously stepped forward. “Miss Miles’s living expenses have always been covered by Mr. Nichols,

so…

Melody sneered, “So all of this was bought with his money?”

D

Joe didn’t dare to speak.

Melody turned to Sophie. “Throw them all away! Tell the school principal that from today on, the Nichols family has nothing to do with Shelia. She is an adult now, and she no longer needs our support.” “Grandma!” Juan frowned. “Shelia is from a poor family. The tuition at Arcane Academy is expensive. How can she possibly afford it?”

“She’s studying finance. If she can’t handle this, all these years of your support have been wasted,” Melody retorted. “Besides, we have invested a lot in her. It’s time for her to do something in return.”

Then she turned to Debra, her expression softening. “Debra, come sit here.”

Debra lowered her head and sat beside Melody.

Melody patted her hand. “I’m sorry for what happened, but divorce is a big deal. For the sake of our families‘ relationship, we shouldn’t talk about divorce lightly. I’ll let Juan apologize to you, and you have my word. Such a thing won’t happen again.”

Debra glanced at Juan, who didn’t seem apologetic in the slightest.

“Grandma, feelings can’t be forced. Since Juan likes Shella, divorce might be the best choice for both of us,” she said.

“Nonsense. Our family would never take in a poor student!” Melody glared at Juan and demanded, ” Apologize to Debra now!”

Juan frowned, refusing to do it.

Debra sighed. “Grandma, don’t force him. It’s okay.”

Unrelenting, Melody picked up a cane from the table and struck Juan with it.
