This was a case of intentional homicide. If a private settlement couldn’t be reached, Shelia would be behind bars for years.

And Shelia hadn’t hurt just anyone. Michael was a high–profile star. If her involvement was exposed, she would face the wrath of fans and critics alike.

Edgar expressed his remorse. “I’m really sorry. I’ll ake sure Jade apologizes to you

tomorrow.”

Debra, however, was in no mood for apologies. She said brusquely, “Since you’ve finished speaking, you can go now. Michael needs to rest, and we won’t see you out.”

Edgar nodded, understanding the dismissal. “Alright, I won’t disturb Mr. Austin’s rest any further. However, Ms. Frazier, it seems you and Michael are no longer connected, right?”

Debra glanced at the half–finished documents on the table before replying, “Yes, I just came to visit an old friend. Since you mentioned it, why don’t you give me a ride

home?”

Her sudden request took Edgar aback. He frowned briefly, but given the circumstances, he had to agree. “That’s my pleasure.”

Debra didn’t wait for further pleasantries. She stepped out of the room ahead of Edgar, giving Michael a reassuring glance as she left.

Marion had already warned Edgar, so he dared not lay a hand on her. By the time they reached the first floor, Debra noticed that all the reporters outside had been dealt with by Edgar’s people. The area was clear, not a soul in sight.

“Ms. Frazier, please get in the car,” Edgar said, opening the car door for her.

Debra got in, and Edgar såt beside her, making sure to keep a respectable distance. He was wary of any tricks Debra might pull, especially after the last incident where he had her beaten.

As the car turned a corner, Debra seemed to lose her balance and fell into Edgar’s arms. When she righted herself, her lips left a noticeable lipstick mark on his collar.

Seeing the mark, she was satisfied and apologized, “I’m so sorry. The car space is so big, and I didn’t hold on.”

Edgar adjusted his sleeve, unconcerned. “It’s fine.”

Chapter 400

When they arrived at Debra’s new apartment, she got out of the car. Edgar waited until she entered the apartment complex before instructing the driver, “Drive.”

“Yes, sir.”

As Edgar watched Debra disappear into the building, he couldn’t shake off a sense of unease. Nothing had happened on the way.

‘So, is this really just about getting her home?‘

Across town, Shelia had been anxiously pacing the living room, waiting for Edgar. She couldn’t understand why he was avoiding her, especially when he claimed to love her.

Edgar had come home only to leave again, which left her feeling defeated and confused.

Just then, the front door opened. She rushed over and asked, “Edgar. Why are you only back now?” Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Edgar adjusted his tie, replying, “Just dealt with some business.”
