Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right



"Mrs. Nichols didn't say a word from start to finish, but Miss Mathis seemed very angry." Joe paused and added," Among those present were our people. He mentioned that Miss Miles' classmates stood up for her because of rumors that Mrs. Nichols had seduced Miss Miles' boyfriend."

Juan pressed his lips together.

Shelia had limited interaction at school, and he had never heard of her having a boyfriend.

"Go and investigate this matter thoroughly, and also check with the school," he instructed.

He didn't usually inquire much about Debra's affairs at Arcane Academy, and Debra had always kept a low profile, so much so that Melody hadn't learned anything. However, the rumor of her being involved in compensated dating didn't seem baseless.

"Yes, sir." Joe quickly left.

Juan pushed open the door to the hospital room and saw that Shelia had already woken up at some point. She looked exhausted as she gazed at Juan, apologizing, "I'm sorry for the trouble."Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"The doctor said you have low blood sugar. Rest well," he replied.

Shelia bit her lip and asked, "I heard Joe mention something that happened at the banquet. Is it serious?"

"It's nothing important." Juan's tone was somewhat distant.

Shelia fell silent.

These past few days, Juan's attitude towards her had been unpredictable. She felt that she couldn't grasp his heart anymore.

"I'll let Joe take you out of the hospital tomorrow. I have something to attend to and have to leave," Juan said. Shelia was eager to stop him, but he had headed toward the room.

Deep into the night, everyone at the banquet was tipsy.

Erica noticed that Marion hadn't come downstairs yet, so she asked Randy, "How much longer are Marion and Andrew going to chat?"

"He has left," Randy replied.

"What?" Erica freaked out. "Why didn't he tell us?"

"He told me," Randy said.

"Why didn't you tell me then?"

"I thought you were enjoying your drinks, so I forgot..."

Erica playfully knocked Randy on the head. "What about Debra? Is he stupid? It's so late, and he is unaware he should take her home?"

Randy rubbed his sore head. "He told me to ride you guys home."

"Can that be the same?" Erica was about to say more when Debra interjected with a smile, "It's alright. Marion probably has something to attend to. You guys go ahead."

"You're going back to the Nichols family's house? Juan abandoned you and took Shelia away," Erica sulked, unhappy about Juan's actions.

"That's why I need to go back. With so many high-society ladies present tonight, this scandal will reach Melody's ears by tomorrow. I can't let her know I'm staying outside."

It was precisely because of this that she didn't make a big deal out of her identity tonight.

Erica nodded. "Alright, take care of yourself. Call us if you need anything."

After Erica and Randy left, Debra went to the terrace to catch some fresh air. There, she saw Andrew sitting alone in a wheelchair. Under the moonlight, his figure appeared somewhat cold and lonely.
