Chapter 116
Debre couldn’t quite figure out Andrew’s meaning, but one thing was certain. Andrew didn’t want her near the terrace.
Debre didn’t challenge Andrew. She simply nodded politely before heading downstairs.
When Debra reached the bottom, she saw Jordan drinking alone near the staircase Spotting her, he immediately set down his drink and asked, “Why did you go upstairs?”
“I just needed some fresh air,” Debia replied.
She noticed a hint of nervousness in Jordan’s eyes as she asked, ” Doesn’t your brother like people going to the second floor?”
“Not exactly. That’s where he discusses business,” Jordan replied vaguely
Debra had never been to any party held by the Potter family before, so she wasn’t familiar with their customs.
But she hadn’t been stopped when she went up earlier, suggesting it was tacitly allowed by Andrew. Perhaps he wanted her to learn from the event and stay away from Jordan.
“It’s getting late, and I should leave
“T’ll walk you out!”
“It’s okay.”
Just as Debra was about to leave, the gates opened, and Juan walked in. Everyone immediately raised their glasses to him, but he strode straight toward Debra.

“Let’s go home,” Juan said, F tone brooking no argument.
Debra didn’t even look at him.
Earlier, almost everyone saw Juan leave with Shelia. Now he was back to take her away. This would make her look like a fool.
Jordan sneered, “Why should she listen to you? Don’t you think you’re too overbearing?”
Juan glanced at Jordan impassively and said, “Debra is my wife. If she doesn’t go home with me, should she go home with you?”
“You!”
Jordan had a fiery temper, and Juan’s words instantly ignited his
anger.
Amid the tense air, everyone could tell Juan was here with anger. He was just restraining himself due to the public setting.
Debra didn’t understand where Juan’s anger was coming from. She wondered if he blamed her for Shelia fainting.
“Jordan, apologize to Mr. Nichols. Andrew’s voice came from behind as he emerged from the elevator.
Jordan couldn’t defy his brother.
He said reluctantly, “Mr. Nichols, I’m sorry.”
Juan grabbed Debra’s hand and began to leave.
Debra winced in pain.
She couldn’t understand why Juan was gripping her hand so tightly.

But before Juan could reach the door, a group of bodyguards blocked his path.
Debra observed them. These men were armed with stun batons.
‘Diplomacy followed by force?‘
Now this was interesting.
“Mr. Andrew Potter, don’t you want me to leave?” Juan asked.
“If you wish to leave, no one would dare stop you,” Andrew said with a faint smile. “But Ms. Frazier is Jordan’s friend and a guest of the Potter family. Unless she chooses otherwise, no one can take her away.”
Juan narrowed his eyes.
The tension in the air was palpable.
Andrew turned to Debra with a slight smile. “Ms. Frazier, what is your choice?”
