When Debra heard the valuable gift, everything clicked into place.
She understood Melody's motivations perfectly. Given Melody's obsession with reputation and status, there was no way she would reject Declan's personal negotiation and generous offer, especially since Shelia was carrying the Nichols family's heir.

"With the future Mrs. Nichols present, where is Mr. Nichols?" "Madam." Ben leaned in, whispering something in Debra's ear.
Debra paused for a moment before saying, "I see." "Debra, what's wrong?" Leah asked, noticing Debra's preoccupied expression.
"I need to go upstairs for a bit. I'll be down soon," Debra replied with a polite smile.
Leah nodded gently. "Alright." Debra lifted the hem of her dress and instructed Ben, "Wait here. Don't let anyone up to the second floor." "Understood." Debra ascended the grand staircase, her steps echoing through the empty second floor. Shelia emerged from around the corner, dressed in a luxurious white gown that belied the pitifu expression on her face "Debra," Shelia began, her voice soft and pleading.
QUMS Debra's tone was cold and unyielding. "I expected to see Juan. Miss Blair, why did you callup here in his name? What is it you want to discuss?" Shelia moved closer, her eyes wide and innocent. "Debra, I know you're upset about this. I called you here to tell you..." Shelia paused, her expression suddenly twisting into a sneer. "I wanted to tell you to die." Before Debra could react, Shelia lunged at her, grabbing her wrist and pulling her toward the edge of the stairs.

all eyes turned to the horrifying spectacle. Shelia lay at the bottom of the stairs, pool of blood spreading ominously across the floor. "Help! Miss Blair fell from the stairs." "Jade!" an elderly voice rang out.
Declan had just arrived and witnessed the scene. Edgar om accompanying bir rushed to Shelia's side, his face etched with concern.
Declan helped Shelia up, cradling her limp body in his arms. Edgar turned to the maid, his voice urgent and n commanding "Call an ambulance!" The maid, momentarily stunned, quickly snapped into action and dialed for emergency services. Declan raised his head and glared at Debra, who was standing at the top of the stairs.
