Juan’s response was indifferent. “As per the contract, the divorce papers will be delivered to you on the agreed date.”
Debra fell silent, and he added, “Did you come all the way here just to discuss this?”
Detecting the coldness in his tone, Debra shook her head.
“I came to ask if you’d join me on a show.”
“What kind?”
“Hello, Ex“.”
Juan picked up the coffee cup on the table, taking his time. “I’ve heard of it. The show’s pitch was quite well done.”
“So, will you go?”
“Are you going?”
Tam.”
“Alright.”
Debra was relieved.
But then, Juan asked abruptly, “What’s your relationship with Andrew?”
Debra quickly deflected, “Nothing special. He’s a business partner of the McKinney Group, so we have some dealings.”
Juan seemed to accept it, as he’d never believed Debra to be the mysterious figure, Tracy. After the last time Michael replaced her at a banquet, Juan preferred to believe that Michael was Tracy.
*Andrew is dangerous. It’s best if you don’t get too close. You don’t want to get burned,” he warned.
“I told you, he’s just a business partner. Besides, someone like him wouldn’t get close to me,” Debra replied with a light smile. “You’re overthinking it.”
“I hope so.”
“Well, I’ve said what I came to say. Since you agreed, the contract will be sent to you this afternoon. Let’s make sure we get along during filming.”
Debra stood up to leave. Juan spoke again, “I know Melody went to see you at the company.”
Her steps faltered, and Juan hesitated before continuing, “She’s my grandmother, after all. I know she puts you in tough spots sometimes. I’m sorry.”
Debra didn’t respond and simply walked out of the reception room.
News that Debra and Juan would be appearing on the show ‘Hello, Ex‘ spread like wildfire. The media was already abuzz with speculation about their rocky marriage, painting it as a dramatic tale of the wealthy elite. People were curious to see how the story of the “domineering CEO and his pampered wife” would
unfold in real life.
However, the comment sections were filled with skepticism.
Isn’t ‘Hello, Ex‘ supposed to be about divorced couples reconnecting? Why are these two on the show?]
[Rumor has it they’re already divorced. They’re just pretending to be together to keep their stocks stable.]
[Confirmed. A financial insider broke it down ages ago. These two are split.]
[My friend works at City Hall. Their divorce was super secretive, but someone found out.]
[Ugh, I feel so bad for Debra. She has to play the happy couple with that cheating jerk.]
Scrolling through the comments, Debra could tell this was all Andrew’s doing.
As for the negative comments about Juan…
She glanced over at Randy, who was quickly typing on his laptop.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“Don’t you think that’s enough? Now one out of every ten comments calls Juan a cheater.”
“Marion said it needs to be one out of five. How much longer do I have to keep doing this?”
