Chapter 712
Debra scrolled through the comment thread beneath Marion’s supposed alias.
[Marion, use your main account.]
[Yeah.]
[The moment a Debra–Juan fan says anything, Mr. Houston’s there to shut it down.]
Debra liked Marion’s comment and planned to exit the app when a video compilation caught her eye.
It was a clip of her and Juan from their time on the island, meticulously edited to emphasize every small gesture between them.
The captions painted a picture of intimacy and affection.
[Whenever Juan looks at her, his eyes are full of love.]
[That hand he reached out? That was instinctive.]
[She’s looking ahead, but he’s only looking at her.]
Debra was dazed. She hadn’t noticed these details during the livestream.
But soon, Juan’s cold face resurfaced in her mind.
The last time they met, he was full of indifference. She wondered if he was pretending or revealing his true colors.
With doubt in mind, she grabbed her phone and scrolled through her contacts, landing on Juan’s name.
She hesitated for a moment and called Joe instead.
In the CEO’s office, Joe checked out the caller ID and then looked up at Juan, who was reviewing documents.
Without looking up, Juan said, “Mute your phone.”
“Sir, it’s Ms. Frazier calling,” Joe said cautiously.
Juan finally looked up and frowned. “Reject it.”
The order surprised Joe, and he felt doubtful when he saw a hint of disgust in Juan’s eyes.
“What, didn’t you hear me?”
“Yes, sir.”
Joe complied.
Debra stared at the screen, knowing the call had been rejected under Juan’s order.
She had thought of asking about their divorce agreement, but clearly, there was no point.
Just as she was about to put her phone down, several motifications popped up, along with a message
1/2
from Ben.
[Madam, please stop accidentally liking comments.]
Debra checked out the news alert and realized what was going on from the trending topic.
The comment she liked had blown up, sparking a wave of controversy and speculation, and Ben had done immediate PR work to explain it was just an accident.
She opened her social media app and typed out a new post.
[Wasn’t an accident. Thanks for the attention.]
Instantly, the post went viral, and the comments section erupted with excitement.
[See that? NOT an accident.]
[Debra–Marion fans rejoice. It’s official.]
[RIP to Debra–Juan shippers.]
Her blunt actions courted an immediate call from Ben.
“Hello?”
“Madam, you have to give me a reasonable explanation for this.”
“It’s the truth. No point in lying to the fans.
“Many shippers have already unfollowed, and some are even posting to smear your image. Most importantly, Juan has responded.”
