NovelEnglishChapter 483 "A gola?" When Debra strode back into the McKinney Group's headquarters, the buzz of internal chatter reached her ears almost instantly.
She tossed the invitation onto her desk. "So, why didn't this invitation land on my desk yesterday?" Ben squirmed under her gaze. "This Is a big deal. All the top celebrities and big-nstars will be there. I didn't think you needed to attend, so..." "Cut to the chase, Ben. Who's hosting it?" Debra demanded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBen tried to dance around the question, but Debra's steely gaze had him pinned. He finally cclean.
"It's the Nichols family." A smile spread across Debra's face. She knew Ben wouldn't hide the invitation without a reason. And now, she understood. He was worried about her crossing paths with Juan.
Ben trod carefully. "They're going to announce Mr. Nichols' engagement to Miss Blair.
Everyone in Seamar City knew about Debra's history with Juan. Now that Juan was getting engaged to Shelia, and if the invitation had landed in his still-not-quite-ex- wife's lap, it would be a recipe for public humiliation.
Debra eyed the invitation. "Is this invitation foror Tracy?" "Both," Ben replied, handing over the other invitation.
The public was still in the dark about Tracy's true identity, and even Juan was none the wiser. So, the Nichols family had sent two invitations. Whether Debra attended as herself or as Tracy was a tangled web indeed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Mr. Nichols' engagement to Miss Blair is good news. I should attend." "Mad "Not as Debra, but Tracy," she said. "By the way, how is Michael's injury?" "He is much better now." 175 BONUS "Good. Tell Michael to get ready." "Michael was actually invited to the gala. Are you suggesting..." "I can't make an appearance as Tracy. Let Michael stand in for me." Michael was a natural actor, and his skills had been honed to perfection over the past year. Moreover, Michael was familiar with all the McKinney Group's decisions. If he pretended to be the real boss behind the McKinney Group, it would set tongues wagging.
“Isn't this a bit risky? If people start seeing Michael as the McKinney Group's boss, then you...” "The divorce agreement hasn't been finalized yet, so my identity can't be made public for now."
If she could dominate Seamar City, it might be different. But currently, she and Juan were on equal footing, with equadvantage. If her even at a slight disadvantage. If the Nichols family's profit-driven members learned she was the real power behind the McKinney Group, she wouldn't be able to escape this marriage. Ben nodded, understanding the delicate balance at play.
"I'll get it done right away." "Also, prepare a formal evening dress for me." "Are you going too?"
"Lots of reporters will be at the gala. With Juan officially getting engaged to Shelia today, I want to use this opportunity to maximize the media impact. I'm set on getting this divorce, and I'll use every tool at my disposal to make it happen."
Ben quickly understood Debra's intentions and nodded Understood." X
