No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 658

"Whose secret?" I asked casually.

Deborah looked at me, her lips moving as if she wanted to say something but was hesitant, as if fearing the consequences. Realizing the severity of her situation, I raised my hand to stop her. "Then don't worry about telling me. I'll look into it myself."

"Licia, you don't need to dig into this, and please stop worrying about my problems. You've already helped me so much by paying off my debts, and I'm truly grateful," Deborah said, guilt lacing her words.

I looked at her, contemplating the secret she was reluctant to share.

"Don't worry about the money. Just take care of yourself," I didn't want to burden her further.

Deborah shook her head, determined to repay me.

I didn't press further. Everyone has their own principles, and it wasn't my place to challenge hers.
