From Heartbreak to Happily Ever After Novel

Shelia was gentle, understanding, and always considerate. Debra, on the other hand, had grown increasingly paranoid and suspicious, worn down by the emotional torment day after day.

One evening. Debra made a full dinner, hoping for nothing more than to share a meal with him.

When he saw the burn marks on her hands from cooking, a strange emotion stirred within him.

That night, he ended up in bed with her. He was furious, not expecting her to drug him.

The next morning, after he calmed down, he realized It wasn’t Debra’s doing.

When he figured out Melody was behind it, he chose to stay quiet about it, burying the incident deep inside. But after that night, he grew even colder toward Debra. As someone who never knew how to express his emotions, he avoided her.

Debra faced her darkest hours alone, and he saw the sadness in her eyes. Yet every time she saw him, she forced a smile and asked what he wanted for dinner, as if trying to keep things normal. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

That was when he realized, for four years, he had been running away from their marriage. He had never once sat down with her for a peaceful meal.

He had always assumed she married him for her own gain, so he ignored the love and devotion she had given him all these years.

One day, when she wasn’t looking, he left his wedding ring on her bedside table, hoping she’d understand what it meant.

Not long after, they w

bidding on a crucial piece of land. Shelia was on good terms with the seller’s wife. Because of this connection, he and Shelia had to appear together at events.

Around this time, Debra found out she was pregnant. But instead of sharing her joy with him, she became more withdrawn, hardly speaking to him. He assumed it was because she had heard the rumors about him and Shelia. Back then, he told Shelia to explain the situation to Debra, and she agreed.

Shelia was sponsored by him, and he always trusted her. He believed she would handle the matter properly.

The business deal went through, but he soon realized Shelia had never spoken to Debra. Worse, she had been involved in shady dealings behind his back, entangled with several company shareholders. To his shock, Shelia had even gotten close to Melody.

With those shareholders backing Shelia, he knew he had to handle the situation carefully. He had to distance himself from Debra so Shelia wouldn’t see her as a threat. Otherwise, Shelia might use Melody

to harm Debra.

“She’s still alive? Call me when she’s gone.”

The cold voice sent a shiver down Juan’s spine. He couldn’t believe such words had come out of his own

mouth.

On the other end of the phone was not the doctor, but Shelia. Standing in his office with that same soft smile she always wore, she asked, “Juan, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing. Just another of her endless tantrums,” he said, tossing his phone aside.

For years, Debra had tried to grab his attention, especially after she became pregnant.

He believed she was doing it again and thus didn’t take it seriously.
