Chapter 23
Debra glanced at Juan's phone."
Juan rejected the call instead of answering it.
"If you don't have babies soon, I'll have to use extreme measures," Melody said.
Juan remained silent.
Melody had made her request clear a long time ago.
After Melody left, Debra spoke up. "Did you call the people at the school office?"
"Yeah," Juan replied curtly.
"You told them not to give me special treatment, right? Debra asked.
"What? Are you asking for my help now? Want me to pull strings to get you into Arcane Academy?
Juan snorted with disdain, "Let me tell you. Even if I get you into Arcane Academy, you won't graduate."
"I just hope you won't interfere. If you make the principal remove me from the admission list, don't blame me for turning against you," Debra said sternly.
Juan narrowed his eyes.
This woman was getting bolder with him.
Juan's phone rang again.
Juan answered impatiently, "Spit."
"Sir, Mrs. Nichols's grades are out."
Juan sensed the staff member's hesitance and frowned. "I see."
Sitting across from Juan, Debra observed his expression. She figured out that someone had leaked her exam results early.
"I didn't expect you to cheat on the entrance exam for Arcane Academy."
"I passed, didn't I?" Debra ignored Juan's words.
From Juan's expression, she could tell she had passed the exam.
Since I passed, don't bother with how I did it. In public, we can be a model couple, but in private, don't try to control me."
Debra's attitude was firm.
"You can do whatever you want, but before that, make sure you can handle Melody. If she finds out your got into Arcane Academy, I can't protect you." "It's okay. We can just divorce," Debra casually said.
Juan was displeased.
These days, Debra would mention divorce at the drop of a hat.
However, the cooperation projects between the Frazier and Nichols families were still ongoing. Divorce was simply out of the question.
"Stop using divorce as a threat," Juan said,
Debra remained silent.
At this critical juncture, Juan would never divorce her.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Those elders of the Frazier family would object too.
Although the Frazier family still had some influence, it was already hollow and would disintegrate in a few years. Without the Nichols family's support, it would soon collapse.
As for the Nichols family, they needed the Frazier family's connections and projects.
Neither family could afford to break ties.
That was why Juan felt she was threatening him.
"So, for the sake of our smooth cooperation, please keep Melody in the dark. Don't let her hear any rumors, or else we'll have to get a divorce."
Debra smiled at Juan,
But he detected the seriousness in Debra's tone.
Outside, the night was deepening. Marion sat at his desk, hanging up the call from the school office.
