Debra was taken aback.


    Andrew''s question hit her at just the right moment.


    If Juan just took her away like this, the Potter family''s reputation would be damaged. Andrew naturally would stop him. Otherwise word would spread that the Potter family feared Juan.


    By standing up for her, Andrew preserved her dignity and showed everyone that the Potter family wasn''t afraid of Juan.


    But if she chose not to go with Juan, it would turn the Nichols and Potter families into enemies.


    Juan would lose face, and as his wife, she would lose any future support from the Nichols family.Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    And if this matter was learned by Melody, she wouldn''t support Debra, who disgraced the Nichols family.


    The Potter family would gain a new enemy, distancing themselves from Debra, who couldn''t read the situation. Though Andrew''s words seemed like a question, there was only one answer for her.


    She had to go with Juan.


    That way, both families could settle peacefully, and she would secure the protection of both in the future.


    Debra felt a chill down her spine.


    Andrew''s thinking was truly meticulous and frightening.


    After a moment of silence, Debra said, "Thank you, Mr. Andrew Potter. It''s gettingte, and I''ll leave with Juan now. Trouble arose because of me today, and I''lle to apologize another day." Andrew lowered her eyes and, after a while, raised his hand.


    The bodyguards stepped aside. Juan tightened his grip on Debra''s arm before turning to leave.


    Debra noticed Juan''s men were waiting outside.


    If she had chosen to stay just now, they might have stormed into the hall without hesitation.


    She dared not think further.


    These two figures who dominated Seamar City were truly unfathomable.


    "Brother! You just let him go like that?"


    "I gave her a choice," Andrew said, his smile fading.


    Jordan frowned. "I know. If she chose not to leave..."


    "If she chose not to leave, we would protect her even at the cost of offending Juan," Andrew said.


    Jordan was stunned. Those words didn''t sound like they came from his brother, who always prioritized self-interest.


    Debra was pulled into the car by Juan. His actions were somewhat rough, and she felt like her hand bones might shatter.


    She frowned disapprovingly. "Juan Are you out of your mind? Even If She fainted, you don''t have to lose your temper like this."


    Juan mmed on the brakes, aust causing Debra to hit the sun visor in front.


    As far as she remembered, Juan had never lost hisposure like this before.


    It seemed that Shelia''s fainting had truly driven Juan mad.


    Or perhaps it was because he was angered by Andrew''s words.


    ''I never knew you were so capable, Juan said, suddenly grabbing her neck.


    His eyes were red with anger.


    Debra gritted her teeth and didn''t cry out in pain, but Juan seemed to be out of control, gripping her tightly. *Juan!"


    Debra''s breathing became difficult, and her hands weakly fell to her sides.
