"Sorry, outsiders need ID confirmation and the homeowner''s permission to enter," the security guard insisted, unmoved by their pleas.


    Carrie retorted, "I''ve never heard of such a thing. I told you she''s my friend from school!"


    "Sorry, please have the homeowner call us to verify," the guard said Impatiently.


    The residents here were either wealthy or powerful, and even the guards acted superior.


    Carrie was frustrated and had to leave empty-handed.


    On their way back, Wendy finally voiced her suspicion, Who is that woman really? The residents here aren''t ordinary. Is she really a call girl?"


    "Wendy, what are you implying? Can she be a richdy? Come on, no richdies steal others'' boyfriends," Carrie scoffed.


    Wendy fell silent at Carrie''s response.


    Shelia interjected, "Since we found nothing today, let''s just go back."


    "Yeah, that''s all we can do." Carrie sighed.

    High in the apartment building, Debra watched the trio leave.


    The security guard called Debra, "Ms. Frazier, three people came iming to be your friends. Should I let them in?"


    "No, if theye again, just turn them away," Debra replied.


    "Understood!"


    After she hung up, Marion questioned, "Just let them go like that?"


    "What else? Start a fight downstairs?" Debra dismissed wasting time on them.

    With this life''s second chance, Debra wouldn''t meddle in Shelia''s affairs anymore.


    They were destined to be together, and she would steer clear of anything involving Shelia to avoid unnecessary trouble.

    Debra sat down opposite Marion and poured tea for him.


    Randy called this morning, frantic about rumors at school. He called again at lunch, saying you nearly fought someone in the cafeteria, so I came for the show," Marion replied seriously. 1/2


    Debra admired Randy''s eloquence in embellishing stories and stirring things up.


    "There was no fight. Don''t listen to him," she said.


    "But the rumors are true," Marion hinted meaningfully. "Easygoing people can be trampled on."


    Debra brushed off Marion''sment, taking it as a joke.
