Chapter 40
Colleen pulled Debra into the car and drove them to a nearby nightclub.
Debra stepped out of the car and was led to a reserved private room..
Compared to the noise outside, the room was relatively quiet.
As soon as the door opened, Debra saw Jordan sitting on the sofa..
He was dressed in a punk style, his gaze icy. His fierce appearance added to his wild aura.
The moment she had seen that car earlier, Debra had realized this was Jordan’s set up.
Colleen left without saying anything. Now it was just Debra and Jordan in the room.
“Mr. Jordan Potter, is it necessary to meet me here?” Debra turned to leave, but the door had been locked.
It didn’t scare her, though. Since she was Juan’s wife, Jordan wouldn’t dare to do anything to her, which was why she had come alone in the first place.

“I’m Juan’s wife, a fact known throughout Seamar City. Perhaps you’re the only one unaware,‘ Debra replied.
Jordan frowned.
He had just returned from abroad and wasn’t well–informed about domestic affairs in the past year.
He wasn’t interested in the socialite circle either, hence unfamiliar with Debra’s name.
“Alright, Mr. Jordan Potter, stop your fantasies. I have no ulterior motives towards you. Even if I do, it would be towards your brother.”
Everyone knew that Andrew held absolute power in the Potter family, while Jordan was merely a frivolous

playboy.
“Stop!” Jordan gripped her wrist.
Debra’s casual remark had triggered Jordan’s temper.
“You mean I’m not as good as Andrew?” he asked.
“What do you think?” Debra asked back.
His grip tightened, but he knew she was speaking the truth.

Suddenly, he derisively. “Juan and my family have always been at odds. If I did something to you
