Chapter 720 Chapter 720 Chapter 720 +25 BONUS Their business rivalry aside, Juan's personal life was no longer any of Debra's concern.
She was just about to walk away with Erica when she bumped into something solid.
It was the broad chest of someone cloaked in black. Debra looked up and saw a silver mask covering his face.
Debra instinctively stepped back, while Erica quickly grabbed her arm, creating distance between them. Debra gave an apologetic smile and said, "I'm sorry. Did I hurt you?" “It's fine.” The man's reply was slow and gravelly.

She just didn't understand why such a man warned her of danger and told her to leave the event.
Erica waved it off. "Don't worry. These events draw all kinds of strange people, Just steer clear of anyone shady." Debra nodded, but the encounter lingered in her thoughts.
The business that the Houston family had been involved in was inherently dangerous, and they had countless enemies.

Just then, a familiar voice rang out, interrupting her thoughts.
"Debra." 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 720 She turned to see Michael, standing off to the side with a champagne glass in hand.
"I didn't think you'd make it," she said.
Michael shrugged casually. "Couldn't miss the engagement of my favorite business partner, could 17 Though it seems I've arrived a little late. Looks like I missed all the ."
The exorbitant gifts from the Mathis family, the Osborne family, and the Potter family had shocked the entire city. Compared to these, what he had to offer seemed insignificant.
Michael pulled out a gift from his pocket and said, "It's, not much, but It's congratulations. Here's to a happy engagement." WWW
