Debra stopped in her tracks, a playful glint in her eyes. "Why should I agree to this? I'm just a trainee at Potter Entertainment. What's in it for me?"Juan met her gaze. "You still hold shares in McKinney Group. If Potter Group profits, so does McKinney, and your dividends go up. It's a win-win."Debra couldn't argue with that logic. To the world, she was a fallen heiress drowning in debt. The meager dividends from the McKinney Group weren't going to fund her champagne lifestyle."Okay," she relented, walking back. "But I have conditions."Juan raised an eyebrow. "Name them.""This is a one-time deal, and you keep your distance," Debra said, taking a step back. "Like this.""Understood," Juan agreed swiftly. "Anything else?""Not for now," Debra said, turning towards the amusement park.A faint smile graced Juan's face as they entered the park. Debra had been there before with her parents. After they passed away, she didn't come again."Pick any ride you want," Juan said. "N

"Alright," Juan responded.Across town in the Nichols family's house, Melody shot up from her seat, her face a thundercloud."What? Juan is at the amusement park with Debra?""That's not all. I heard Juan booked the entire park. And he invested one billion in Potter Entertainment just to convince Debra to go with him," Hester reported.With Shelia out of the picture, she'd seized the chance to worm her way back into the Nichols family. But Juan, fixated on Debra, barely acknowledged her existence.She'd only found out about today's escapade when she overheard whispers at the Nichols Group headquarters."That foolish boy," Melody fumed. "What is he thinking?"Now that the Frazier family was broke, Juan shouldn't waste any more time on Debra. He was supposed to divorce her as soon as possible.Melody said, "Call Joe. Tell him it's an order from me. Juan should come home now.""Yes, Mrs. Nichols Sr." Hester eagerly pulled out her phone.Joe hesitated for a moment before answerin

The moment the words escaped Debra's lips, she wished she could reel them back in.She'd seen the affection in Juan's eyes, unchanged and unyielding. He'd gambled everything on her once, and she knew he'd do it again in a heartbeat."If you want, they're all yours," Juan said without the slightest hesitation."What if I'm not joking?""I'm not either.""Forget it. I'm tired of this game. What's next?"Debra marched towards the amusement park exit, leaving Juan stunned in place.She tossed over her shoulder and said, "Don't tell me this is all you've got planned."Juan always had a backup plan. And with a grand gesture like renting out an entire amusement park, there had to be more. After all, he had even conquered his acrophobia."There's more," he said, following her lead.Whenever he tried to get closer, Debra would step forward just in time. The distance between them seemed to be as unbridgeable as that single step.Across town at Marion's place, Randy catapulted off the

"Happy birthday, Debra!""Thank..."Before Debra could finish her sentence, a voice like nails on a chalkboard echoed through the mall. "Booking out the whole mall? Quite the spectacle."The crowd parted as Melody Nichols swept in, her eyes locked onto Debra like a hawk zeroing in on its prey. Behind her, a squadron of bodyguards swiftly secured the area, drawing curious stares from onlookers.Debra's smile faded faster than a snowflake in summer."Ms. Frazier, wasn't it you who was so eager to divorce Juan? And now, here you are, coaxing him into throwing you this lavish birthday party. Is your family fortune running dry? Hoping to weasel your way back into the Nichols' good graces?" Melody scoffed, her eyes flashing with contempt. "Keep dreaming."Juan's expression darkened like a storm cloud. "Grandma..."Joe rushed in, taken aback by the scene unfolding before him. Melody, it seemed, had strong-armed her way into Juan's financial records and tracked them down to the mall."

"Joe, escort my grandmother out," Juan commanded, his voice as hard as steel.Joe hesitated before stepping forward. "Mrs. Nichols Sr., please, let's go.""Get lost!" Melody snapped, swatting Joe's hand away.She planted herself squarely in front of Debra. Her eyes were cold, her smile colder. "Listen here, Debra. I know your family's broke and you're desperate for cash, but Juan and you have filed for divorce. So, you're not weaseling your way back into our family. Not on my watch. And you won't see a dime of the marital assets."Juan's anger boiled over. "Grandma, that's enough."Joe advised her, "Mrs. Nichols Sr., you should really leave now. Mr. Nichols is already upset."Just then, Debra spoke up. "Fine. Let's clear this up. Please have Juan sign the divorce agreement as soon as possible. I've sent over dozens of copies, all torn to shreds by him. I don't know if he has a masochistic streak. I've been very clear, yet he still refuses to divorce me."Melody, who always cared

Debra strode out of the mall. A sense of defeat washed over Juan, and he rubbed his temples."Who leaked the news?" he demanded."It seems it was Miss Vargas," Joe said hesitantly.He arranged everything personally—the venue, the gifts, the party. Only a handful of people from the company knew. He wondered how Hester got wind of it.Juan's gaze remained fixed on Debra's disappearing form."Do you think I've lost her, Joe?""Sir..."Juan hadn't seen any affection left in Debra. And when she spoke about that dream, her eyes held a world of bitterness and resignation.Outside the mall, Debra cursed under her breath. She'd forgotten to bring her car, and now she was stranded in the busiest part of Seamar City.Suddenly, a sleek black Porsche pulled up in front of her. The window rolled down, revealing Marion's grinning face. "Get in."Debra quickly slid into the passenger seat, her eyes meeting Marion's."How did you know I was here?"Marion didn't answer. Instead, he reached o

Debra stirred, the scent of saltwater tickling her nose.She thought she was still adrift in dreams, but the sunset painting the sky in hues of orange and pink was very real.She was on a cruise ship. The sea stretched out in all directions, and the sun was dipping below the horizon."Are we there already?" she murmured.Except for Marion and her, there was no one on the ship.She found Marion in the kitchen, wiping down a knife. The aroma of cooked meat filled the air."We've been here a while," he said. "I didn't want to disturb your sleep."Debra then noticed she was lying on a big bed. She got up, and Marion draped a blanket over her shoulders. "The sea breeze is a bit cold this season, but it looks great."The ship had the heating on, so she didn't feel cold. The sunset outside bathed her in warmth."Did you bring me here for my birthday?" she asked.Marion took a step back and gave a small bow. "Ms. Frazier, would you do me the honor of dining with me this evening?"Sh

"What papers?" Debra was puzzled.Marion, with a flourish, produced a document adorned with stamps and signatures. "It's a voluntary gift. No strings attached.""You...""It's all official. These are yours now."He knelt before her, took her hand, and slipped the ring onto her finger. The sapphire gleamed in the candlelight, casting a soft glow on her fair skin.He pressed a tender kiss onto the gem, his eyes never leaving hers."This ring is called 'Loyalty,'" he murmured, his voice thick with emotion. "I pledge my unwavering loyalty to you. I'll stand by your side for life."The candlelight flickered, casting dancing shadows and bathing them in a warm, intimate glow. Debra's cheeks flushed, the heat from Marion's touch sending electric jolts through her.The ship swayed gently, and the only sound the rhythmic lapping of waves against the hull could be heard.After a long pause, she finally found her voice. "Did you forget something?"Marion was confused.Debra hesitated, h

Night settled in deep.Debra and the crew were still waiting for Michael's reply."Still nothing? They don't buy it, do they?" Erica paced, antsy."Give it time. They'll bite," Debra said, clutching her phone.She had promised Kale she would bring Drake back. No breaking that.A text finally pinged her phone. It was Michael.Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Like Debra said, the Illuminati couldn't rule out her having the real stone.If theirs was fake, Michael and his crew couldn't afford the fallout."Marion, it's on you now," Debra said.The Houston family had military muscle on tap. The Potter family owned elite guards and intel. Erica and Randy were solid backups.But this meeting? Debra had to go herself."Does it have to be now? Maybe wait till you're healed?" Erica said.Debra shook her head. "Drake is at risk every day he's with them. I can't take that chance. Just like they can't risk us holding the stone.""She's right," Randy jumped in. "Drag this out, and who

"What're you looking at?" Lara asked, stepping out and spotting Michael by the window."Debra says the stone Drake gave us is fake," he replied."What? No way." Drake shot up from his seat."Are you messing with us?" Lara's sharp gaze landed on him."No. Debra's talking nonsense," Drake insisted."We'll see," Michael said, unruffled.Debra was offering the stone on the condition of meeting with their leader. It fit her style."She thinks she can just waltz in and see our master?" Lara sneered."The stone's a big deal to him. I bet he'll agree," Michael replied, shutting his phone."Don't tell me you're sweet on Debra," she hissed. "You keep letting her off. Don't wanna kill her, huh?""Unlike you, I don't get off on killing," he countered. "If she's not in my way, why bother? You're out there slaughtering, just making enemies for the Illuminati. You're venting rather than serving.""You don't get it. I'm building fear for the Illuminati," she justified herself. "They need to

Oscar set down the receiver and threw his hands up. "I'm not resisting. Don't spook my staff," he said.Chace tried to step in, but Oscar's look stopped him.This incident was major. Almost half of Flesta's people had fallen victim.Everyone at the company, Chace included, got hauled in for questioning. As the head, Oscar was the main target.The line went dead, and Debra's heart sank."Those bastards," Randy cursed, "hitting us on both sides. No wonder the Illuminati has been quiet. They have been gunning for our partners.""They're smart," Debra said. "Can't take us head-on, so they go after our allies. They want everyone to see partnering with us as a dead end. If we let this slide, we're doomed eventually.""What should we do?" Erica stomped, fuming. "We just sit here and watch them pick off our friends one by one?""They're showing us what happens if we cross them. They want us to bow. The only way out is to flip the script and strike first.""Strike first? What does th

Seeing Debra's worried look, Marion said, "You should just focus on healing and leave the rest to us. We might not match the Illuminati, but they won't mess with us randomly here in Seamar City."The Four Great Families had ruled Seamar City for a century. Although the former heads had faded, the new generation was sharper and stronger. They could hold off the Illuminati's push.Debra's phone rang. It was Oscar calling."You free? I've got something to tell you," he said.Debra put it on the speaker. No one could guess the aim of his call.In Flesta, the Odom family's business was booming again. He should have been busy with work."What's up?" she asked."There's big trouble in Flesta," he replied. "We didn't want to bug you, but it's spiraling out of control. We're out of moves.""What happened?" She had a bad feeling.Oscar paused. "A new drug has popped up in Flesta. Tons of our staff got hooked, just like regular folks. The police are on it now. We checked our products and

Debra stared at the pendant.What had happened yesterday came flooding back.Kale was gone, and the fact hit her hard."It's my fault," she said in agony. "If he hadn't gone with me, he would have been alive.""Everyone makes their calls," Marion soothed her. "If there's blame, it's on the Illuminati. I was terrified, almost losing you.""I felt like you were nearby, so I wasn't afraid," she said, leaning into him. "They'll pay for hurting Drake and killing Kale. I'll make sure of it.""No matter what happens, we're in this together," he said.Exhaustion took over. She closed her eyes and drifted off.When she woke up, it was already noon the next day. Her injury kept her from moving much.Everyone gathered outside her bedroom. William came in to check on her."You're fine. Just change the dressings on time," he said, packing up his kit. "You guys can come in now."Debra adjusted her clothes and leaned against the headboard. "Sorry to trouble you.""We're in this together,"

William left quickly.Marion got up to lock the door and returned to the bedside.Sitting back into the chair, he switched on a dim lamp, making sure Debra would see him first thing if she woke up."Brother..." Debra mumbled.Marion leaned in. "I'm here."Her murmurs stopped, but her hands shot up, grasping at the air. "It's so dark. Save me."He grabbed her flailing hands right away. "Don't be scared. I'm right here."But she didn't calm down. She clutched his hand, her nails scratching at his skin. "Brother, save me," she murmured, feeling like she was trapped in a pitch-black hold.Cold seawater seemed to swallow her whole. The biting chill seeped into every crack of her body. The stench of the ocean made her gag.The water was up to her chin. She stood on tiptoes, desperate for a breath in that tiny space."Save me." Her eyes flew open.Familiar surroundings came into view. Her pupils darted until they landed on Marion. Her racing heart finally slowed."Marion?" Her v

Not long after, Marion came out with Debra.William nudged Erica and Randy. "Told you it would be soon.""How's she out here fresh after surgery?" Erica gawked.Debra was supposed to recover in the hospital, but seeing her unconscious form on the stretcher, Erica figured he had his reasons."Let's go back," Jordan chimed in. "The Potter Mansion's got a top-notch medical team. If we need gear, I'll grab it.""Yeah, hospitals suck anyway," Randy said. "Let's head back. It's freezing out here."They'd planned to grab food and head in, but Erica had made them wait so Marion could have more time with Debra. Now they were all sniffling."I'm... Achoo." William sneezed again, then bolted for the car. "I'm out of there. It's freaking cold."He had treated so many patients, but this was the first time he had fallen ill.Debra, still out cold, was loaded into the back. Marion stayed close, tending to her.By the time they reached the Potter Mansion, it was the middle of the night.Wil

William rubbed his eyes in disbelief.They had taken the emergency lane to the hospital, but Marion and the others arrived right behind their heels after going through a battle."We floored it. That's not the point," Erica replied.Marion and Jordan were already striding into the hospital.Randy grabbed Erica's arm. "Come on. Let's go.""Huh? William is still here." She was puzzled.Inside, the operating room's red light glowed.Marion arrived first. The hospital director greeted him, saying, "Mrs. Houston is in surgery now. Our top doctors have assessed her. The wound's been handled perfectly, and she is out of danger."Marion's face softened a bit. Erica heaved a sigh of relief. "Thank God. She's fine now."They'd been terrified seeing Debra collapse in a pool of blood."You're wiped out. Why don't you rest a bit?" Erica said, turning to Marion."I'll wait here," he replied, his eyes glued to the red light.Until it turned green, he couldn't rest his mind at ease."Well

Michael raised an eyebrow. "My plan never included you. Does our master know you snuck here from Orkgate? And you've got the nerve to question me?"Lara glared at him, her body aching from the burns. Her face twisted with anger."Take Miss Sharp back for treatment. It will take two hours to get back, so she'll have to tough it out," Michael ordered, unfazed.Before leaving with his crew, he lamented sanctimoniously, "Such a shame, ruining a pretty face like that."Lara clenched her fists, incandescent with rage....In the ambulance, Debra coughed up another mouthful of blood. It splattered right onto William's white coat."Aw." William almost griped about the mess, holding back only at the sight of her bad condition.He had to save her, no matter what. It was a promise he'd made to Andrew.He didn't even want to think about what would happen to him if Debra didn't make it today."Maybe another shot of painkiller? We've gotta get that bullet out fast," a medic suggested."Yo
