Chapter 4

The room fell silent for a moment. Marion smirked and naid, “Mrs. Nichols, you can’t wrongly accuse good people.”

“Yeah, we’re all legitimate businessmen,” Randy chimed in.

“In the realm of legitimate business, it’s not up to me to judge. But I think Juan might be interested,” Debra said. “I’m just a clueless rich girl, while Juan isn’t. If I tell him what happened, I wonder if he’ll take

notice.”

“You’re sneaky!” Randy couldn’t contain his frustration.

Debra looked at Marion seriously. “Lend me eight billion, and I’ll pay you back with interest in three years.

Randy’s eyes widened. “Are you kidding? Do you know how much interest that’ll be? If you back, we’ll lose eight billion dollars. You’re Juan’s wife. Who can hold you accountable?”

I can’t pay it

“I know the interest. I’ll sign a contract with you. If I can’t repay, I’ll give you my family’s properties and stocks, and I’ll work for you for the rest of my life. Randy paused and continued, “And besides, my marriage with Juan might not last three years. Even if I’m still his wife then, he won’t protect me.”

Marion looked up and stared at Debra for a while.

Randy’s ears perked up as he smelled gossip.

But he quickly composed himself. “No, I disagree!”

But Marion agreed, “Okay, I’ll lend it to you.”

“What?” Randy jumped up from his chair. “Have you gone mad?”

“I’ll have the finance department transfer the money to you. We’ll draft the contract later,” Marion said.

“Marion! Damn!” Randy stomped his foot.

“Thank you, Mr. Houston.” Debra stood up, saying, “I’ll await your message. Happy cooperation.”

She smiled and left the office.

Randy ground his teeth. “That’s eight billion dollars! Are you out of your mind? She’s Juan’s wife! Why would you lend her money?”

Marion grinned. “She’s pretty.”

“Damn it! Why should you get the girl while I pay?” Randy exclaimed.

Marion stood up, slapped a bank card on Randy’s chest, and said, “I pursue the woman I fancy. It’s only right that I foot the bill.”
