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.

“I was just paying a compliment. You’re reading too much into it,” Debra replied.

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

It made sense. Given Debra’s intelligence, how could she see the future value of that land?

“Hope so.”

Juan turned away, leading Shella to meet other people.

Debra managed to capture the hint of triumph in Shelia’s eyes.

She downed a glass of champagne.

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

Her husband left her and took another woman to meet business partners. Could anything be more of a joke than this?

Debra felt disheartened. She had planned to mingle with the business elites, but with Juan gone, it became difficult.

How could she approach those entrepreneurs without seeming intentional?

Debra scanned the surroundings and spotted a plano not far away.

A smile played on Debra’s lips as she got an idea.

But soon enough, the piano keys followed her fingers, producing a melodious tune that perfectly matched the atmosphere of the party. The guests were captivated by the unexpected piano music.
