From Heartbreak to Happily Ever After Novel

Caleb doted excessively on Erica.

“I’m sorry, Miss Mathis, I didn’t mean to. I…” Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Enough!”

Erica frowned, turning her attention to Juan. “It’s you, Juan. You better keep your mistress in check. How dare a poor student who latched onto a wealthy man be so insolent in front of me?”

Being labeled a mistress, Shelia couldn’t hold back her anger. But before she could retort, Juan intervened with a grim expression.

Shelia was frightened by his demeanor, not daring to utter another word.

“It’s a misunderstanding. Let me cover the expenses of your meal. Please don’t take offense.”

“No need! The Mathis family is rich enough.”

Erica bluntly rejected his offer. “I’ll remember this. Show them out!”

Several bodyguards then escorted Juan and Shelia out of the room.

Juan could easily handle these people if he chose to fight. He didn’t because he was in the wrong.

Once outside, Juan looked sullen.

“Juan, I really didn’t…” Shelia started.

“Alright, let’s not talk about it again,” Juan said, suppressing his anger.

Shelia bit her lip in guilt.

She couldn’t have been mistaken. This must be a trick played by Debra.

After Juan and Shelia left, Debra emerged from the adjacent room, dressed in Erica’s clothes. She said, Thank you

for your help, Erica.”

Without hesitation, Erica replied, “No worries! We’re family.”

Randy cleared his throat.

Debra was puzzled by this statement, and Marion picked up the conversation. “Lwanted to introduce you to Erica today, but Juan ruined it. You should go home now before he finds out.”

“Okay.” Debra had been planning to leave earlier but wanted to meet Erica first.

Erica was Marion’s cousin, two years older than him, and a renowned figure overseas.

Since Marion had introduced Erica to her, Debra couldn’t just run off without at least meeting her.

“Erica, let’s catch up next time,” Debra said.

Erica gestured. “Sure!”

After Debra left, Erica glanced at the table and exclaimed, “You called me over without even ordering one of my favorite dishes. Why do I have a cousin like you?

Randy explained, “Your favorite dish was taken by Juan”

“Crab?”

“Yeah.”

Erica rolled up her sleeves. “Should have been tougher earlier!”

Noticing Marion’s silence, she continued, “My cousin is really something, daring to steal someone else’s wife, just like me.”

“Just eat your food!” Randy kept piling food onto her plate.

Marion’s thoughts were all on Debra.

Later that night, Debra heard Juan come home. She closed her eyes, pretending not to hear anything. But soon, she could hear Juan’s slow footsteps as he ascended the stairs.
