Chapter 1745

Itzel turned to Debra, wrapping an arm around her. "Marion just got back from abroad. He didn't mean to pick on you. I'm sorry on his behalf. Let's head in. It's too cold out here. You don't wanna get sick."

Debra nodded and followed her inside.

In the hall, Gael glared at Dwayne. "Did you send your son to bully my girl?"

"No way," Dwayne replied, raising a glass of wine with a gentlemanly smile. "I watched Debra grow up. Chill. I'll give him a talking-to later and make it up to her."

Lori forced a smile.

That would be a sight. Marion looked sturdy, but she wasn't sure if he could take a hit.

Debra showered off. Her perfect makeup was gone, and her dress was soaked.

Jordan waited outside her room. When she stepped out in a dress Itzel lent her, her nose and eyes were red from crying.

She had always been treasured and had never been treated like this.

Jordan sighed, "Stop crying. You look awful."

"I know," Debra wailed, then sniffled. "If I hadn't gone to find you, I wouldn't have run into that psycho. Where's Andrew? Why isn't he here? If he was, I wouldn't have gotten humiliated."

"Please, stop crying. If Andrew finds out, he'll kill me." Jordan tried to soothe her.

Then, from the hall, a bouquet flew at Debra.

She caught it and saw red roses. The scent was rich and heady. The rightful source is Find_Novel(.)net

Marion stood across from her. "My mom told me to give you these."

"Who wants your stupid roses?" Debra chucked them back.

Petals scattered as the bouquet arced through the air. His face burned into her mind.

Suddenly, a weird image flashed. She and Marion were walking down an aisle, his eyes overflowing with affection. He was totally different from this jerk in front of her.

"These are a new breed my grandpa developed," Marion said, picking up the bouquet and holding it out again. "Only my family has them."

He dropped to one knee, causing her heart to skip a beat.

"Miss Frazier, forgive my rudeness earlier," he said slowly. "If you're still mad, we've got plenty of water at home. Splash me back all you want."

"You're nuts." Debra grabbed Jordan and bolted like her life depended on it.

Her heart wouldn't stop racing. She didn't know it was because of Marion or the guy from her vision.

Besides, it was weird for someone to kneel before a stranger.
