Debra didn''t move.


    Oscar, seated nearby, nced at her before looking away.


    Hannah leaned in close to her and whispered, "Someone wants to see you. Please cooperate with me.


    Debra nced at Hannah and reluctantly left with her.


    "Ugh! Still ims she''s helpless. Looks like she''s enjoying it," Eve muttered, her voiceced with jealousy.


    Ashley nodded in agreement. "Yeah, who wouldn''t be happy with a special treat? Who likes this awful food in the cafeteria?"


    Freya, observing Oscar for a while, interjected coolly, "Alright, let''s get back to eating."


    The two girls went back to their seats.


    Tomas leaned toward Oscar and whispered, "Hey, what did that nce you interested in her?"


    Oscar shot him a cold look. "Shut up and eat."


    ? Are


    A guy opposite them chimed in, "Say no more, Tomas. Don''t you know Oscar''s personality? He''s a cold rock, not cracking anytime soon." Another guy echoed, "Yeah, and Debra is dealing with a divorce. Oscar has so many admirers. Why would he go for a loose woman?"


    "Be respectful. How can you call her that?"


    "Alright, protector of women. Let''s eat quietly."


    Freya listened silently, her grip on her fork tightening.


    "I''m full," she announced abruptly, standing up with her te and leaving the table.


    In the staff cafeteria, Debra spotted Ben waiting for her.


    Ben quickly stood up, a look of relief on his face. "Madam."


    Hannah gave Debra a reassuring smile. "You two take your time."


    "Okay." 1/2


    After Hannah left, Bén approached Debra, his expression serious. "Madam, I''ve finally reached you."


    Debra raised an eyebrow. "Something wrong with thepany?"


    She had been unusually free frompany affairs all day, enjoying a rare moment of peace.


    Ben nodded, his expression grave. "Yes, there''s a problem that needs your immediate attention."


    Debra, still eating, replied calmly, "Didn''t I leave thepany in your capable hands? Besides, Randy and Marion are backing you up. What could go wrong?"


    Ben revealed, "It''s Michael."


    The mention of Michael made Debra''s hand pause mid-air.


    "What happened to him?" she asked, her voiceced with worry.


    She remembered Michael had said on the phone yesterday that he''de today. She''d waited all day, thinking he might have had another engagement, but now it seemed something serious had happened. Ben''s face was grim. "Michael was injured severely on his way to the Potter Group today."All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Debra immediately set down her fork. "Why didn''t you tell me earlier?"


    Ben quickly exined, "Michael didn''t want me to say anything, but it''s now affecting work. I had someone investigate and found out today''s ident was suspicious. Someone tampered with the brakes." Debra stood up, her voice firm. "I''m heading there right now. Get a car for me."


    "Got it." Ben nodded.


    Debra left the cafeteria, casting a knowing nce at Hannah as she passed.
