From that glance, Hester sensed Melody's displeasure, She couldn't help but wonder if Melody had seen through her tricks, as Debra mentioned earlier.
Juan opened the bedroom door and heard running water from the bathroom. His eyes fell on the unopened medical kit on the counter. He picked it up and took out the medicine, just as the bathroom door opened. Debra walked out, wrapped in a bathrobe that outlined her perfect figure. Water droplets were glistening in her hair.

Juan took in her reaction and pressed his lips together. "I'll apply the medicine for you." Her injury was not serious at all, and the wound had stopped bleeding.
Debra hesitated before sitting down beside him. As Juan carefully applied the medicine, their proximity allowed them to almost hear each other's breaths.
As his eyes lingered on her smooth, fair neck, Juan felt a surge of heat within him.
"Is it done?" Debra asked.
Juan snapped out of his thoughts and fetched a band-aid from the medical kit, placing it gently on her wound. "Done," he replied.
Debra stood up, putting distance between herself and Juan. He knew she was deliberately creating that space, and he felt a pang of disappointment.
After a moment of silence, he murmured, "Will you accept me?" Debra looked at him, her expression indifferent. "What's wrong? Losing confidence now? Don't say I didn't warn you. You didn't listen to my advice." She had long told Juan that things would not work out between them. She had made it clear that nothing he did could move her.

"Yes, I've lost confidence," Juan admitted, a bitter smile on his lips. "I've never lacked confidence, except with you." Debra looked away. "If you're afraid of losing the Nichols Group, I'll give you a chance now. Cancel the bet."
"I'm not afraid of losing the bet. I'm afraid of losing you," Juan said, his eyes locked onto hers" knowi give up this bet, I'll never have. E!! another chance. That's why I won't give up." "You're being foolish. Don't wait until you lose everything and regret it," said, getting up and lying down on the bed.
