Goodbye Mr Ex I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 499

Debra ended the call.

Oscar, noticing her tense expression, sidled up to her.

"Anything wrong?"

"You and Michael should stay to know some veterans in the entertainment industry. Something is coming up, and I have to leave early."

"But can you really leave at a time like this?"

Debra's eyes darted to Juan, who was engrossed in conversation with Michael.

"I'll slip away quietly."

She downed a glass of wine and handed the empty glass to a stunned Oscar. With a glance around, she hiked up her skirt and dashed towards the exit.

Oscar made a futile grab for her, but she sprinted out of the hall.

Fifteen minutes later, a sleek sports car screeched to a halt in front of the gate.

Erica jumped out and questioned Debra, "What's happening? Why the sudden change of plans?"

Randy echoed, "Did that Juan threaten you? Don't worry. With Marion backing you up, he wouldn't dare try anything."

Debra shook her head. "No. I just made a deal with him."

"What kind of deal?"

"I signed a divorce agreement with Juan. The papers are signed, but publicly, we have to maintain the façade of a happy marriage to restore the Nichols Group's image."

Erica exploded. "That bastard! He's so calculating. He knows he can't avoid divorce, so he's using you to save face."

Randy frowned. "Have you thought about how you're going to break this to Marion?"
