Debra paused. “I just saw Melody wearing a veil. Is she sick?”
“Well, not exactly,” Sophie faltered. “She suddenly decided to have plastic surgery. Her face isn't quite

Debra found the gossip amusing, watching as Drake entered the funeral hall.
After paying his respects to the deceased, he turned to Melody. “My company is working with the Nichols Group,
and I'm a friend of Mr. Nichols. Why isn’t he here today?”
Melody faltered, “Juan is heartbroken and not feeling well. He can’t be here to greet guests. I'm sorry.”
