Given his expression, Juan knew that this plot of land would fetch a hefty sum.

Yet he chose to let Stephen have it as a favor.

That was just Juan’s style.

Juan furrowed his brow, assessing the sincerity of Debra’s words.

In the eyes of others, she was just a failed woman abandoned by her husband.
