The doctor said, "This guy is lucky. Most people''s hearts are on the left, but his is


    on the right. He''ll recover fully with proper rest."


    Debra breathed a sigh of relief.


    Drake and Kale were wheeled out of the operating rooms, both still unconscious.


    For the time being, they couldn''t tell her anything.


    In the car outside, Randy learned something through a call. His expression turned


    grim in no time.


    He rushed into the hospital and shouted, "Guys, I''ve got some bad news."


    "Sir, please keep your voice down here," a nurse reminded him.


    "Sorry. It''s an emergency," Randy apologized, rushing toward Debra and Marion.


    "Something is up at the Nichols Group."


    "Take a breath and exin," Debra replied.


    "Alright." Randy steadied himself. "It''s Juan. He came back."


    "What?"


    "And he''s back with the 45% stake. How did he even get it back?"


    "I gave those shares to Drake. He was supposed to use them to take over the


    Nichols Group today. How did they end up with Juan?"


    "I''m stumped too. What is going on?


    Erica and weren''t wrong after alt


    Juan iszup ip to something. No wonder


    he''s ruled Seamar City for so long. If


    he can orchestrate a shooting,


    there''s nothing he wouldn''t do."


    Debra fell silent.


    Marion spoke up. "Don''t overthink it. You stay here. I''ll check things out."


    "You stay here. I''ll go," Debra


    insisted. I still have 10% of the


    shares. I haven''t handed them over


    to Melody yet. Fair means first


    before force."


    "I''ll go with you," Marion offered.


    Debra shook her head. "Drake needs someone to watch over him. Only you can


    keep him safe."


    Marion was reluctant, pressing his lips together.


    Randy interjected, "We''re running out of time. Someone has to go, or in half an


    hour, Juan will take over for real."


    "I''ll go," Debra said. "Get the car. We''re heading over."


    They hurried down the hospital corridor.


    Marion nced at Kale and Drake in the ward. Robert''s recent words echoed in


    his mind.


    He was born without emotions.


    Debra was the only one who could


    make him feel the real world. He


    couldn''t imagine what he would do if


    it were Debra lying in that hospital


    bed.
