Penulis: Cozy Season
"Really?"

"Yeah. Spitting it out would be uncivilized."

"Good to hear."

"Is there anything else?"

"Not really."

"Uh..."

"Has he had dinner yet?"

The sudden question puzzled Barton. "Not yet."

"Perfect. None of us have eaten yet. I'll invite him to join us in the dining hall."

"Er..."

"I'll cook."

An apology should come with sincerity. Besides, Erica had told her earlier that Andrew was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. Persistence was the key.

"You don't have to trouble yourself."

"It's no trouble. None of us have eaten anyway." Debra dismissed him with a wave and hurried downstairs.

Randy and Erica came back from their candlelight dinner. Debra grabbed them and sat them down in the living room.

"What's going on?" Randy asked, confused. "Isn't your wedding banquet still a few days away? Are you throwing a feast early?"

"Something like that. I'll cook for us."

Erica chimed in, "But we already ate."

"One more meal won't hurt." Debra dashed off toward the kitc

  • Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right   Chapter 1848

    The secretary smiled without explaining.Orders were orders. No questions asked.Stuck in the lounge, Debra pulled out homework she hadn't touched in three days. Staring at the pile, she felt her head spin.Getting nagged by teachers at school was bad enough, and now Juan was bossing her around. It made her fume.An hour later, she finished one test paper, but Juan was still in his meeting.She checked the time. It was already 8 p.m. and pitch dark outside."When's your boss gonna wrap up? I need to get home," she said."Mr. Nichols got you some food. Eat if you're hungry," the secretary replied, placing a takeout bag in front of her.She opened it and saw all her favorites. She blinked. "Your boss picked this?""Yes, Miss Frazier," the secretary confirmed."How did he know what I liked?" Debra asked, suspicious. "He's been digging into me?"Realizing the truth, she shot up from the couch. The secretary failed to stop her as she stormed into the conference room.The manager

    Debra snapped back to reality. "I don't know him.""I'm her fiancé," he said blandly.The class teacher blinked. In all her years, she had never had a fiancé show up as a parent. Clearing her throat, she said, "Well, Debra has been smoking at school. It's severe misconduct. As her guardian, I hope you can rein her in."Juan's gaze landed on Debra. "Smoking?""I was just messing around," she muttered, sounding scared but showing no fear.Fiancé or not, he had no right to control her.He turned back to the teacher. "I'm sorry for what happened. I'll give her a good talking-to."He glanced at his secretary and ordered, "Pack her bag and have the driver ready.""Yes, sir." The secretary nodded, heading to grab Debra's things."I've got plans after school to hit the arc..." she grumbled.Juan's sharp glance cut her off. She clammed up and followed behind him.As a bodyguard opened the car door, she asked warily, "Where are you taking me?""Mr. Nichols has an important meeting,

    The world was full of mysteries and miracles."Sometimes I wonder if we could really start over," Juan mused.If the world reset, everything could be rewritten. Time could roll back to when Debra was 17."You're a girl. How can you pick up smoking?" the class teacher chided her.Debra wore a modified school uniform, her long hair loosely clipped. At 17, she was already striking."Why can't girls smoke? Tons of guys do." She shrugged."That's not the point. Students shouldn't smoke," the class teacher snapped, tossing a pack of cigarettes on the desk. "Call your parents after school.""I don't have parents," she said without looking up. "They're dead.""Then get your uncle and aunt here.""Fine."She pulled out a phone, and the class teacher gaped. "You're hiding a phone too?""You told me to call them," Debra said, dialing. "Yeah, they need a parent. Come quickly. I'm hitting the arcade tonight."She hung up, and the class teacher was floored by her bluntness."You're hope

    Drake laughed at her question.Debra frowned. "What's so funny? I'm being serious.""You actually bought that?""You lied?""Yup.""You're not a good guy.""Never said I was."The beach stretched on, but he wasn't feeling tired at all.Back at campus, Debra hopped off the bike and handed him the helmet."Thanks for today. It was a big deal for me," she said, beaming.Drake leaned on the bike, watching her glow over one day of skipping class."What kind of life do you live? One day out and you're this hyped?""You know, class, food, and sleep. Sometimes I play piano, paint, or lately, I'm into flower arranging."Drake could picture her at a window, playing piano. She had once done it with him in the real world.She was a good girl, but they were from different worlds."Alright, princess, go arrange your flowers. Stop following me," he said, patting her head. "See you, shorty."Debra blinked. "I'm not short. And you're going the wrong way."Drake was already too far to h

    The sea breeze at the docks was strong.Debra didn't care. She sat casually on the beach. While grabbing a drink, Drake got her an orange soda.The wind messed up her hair. Her profile was perfect. No wonder Marion Houston fell for her at first sight.Drake chugged his beer. Debra eyed his can, curious and eager."Wanna try?" He held it out, only to yank it back as she reached for it. "Girls shouldn't drink."She pouted. "I've never had alcohol.""Andrew doesn't let you?""Yeah.""Control freak.""Not really. He just cares about my health. My parents and he dote on me, but they treat me like a kid. I'm in college now. I can take care of myself, and I wanna do grown-up stuff.""Grown-up stuff? Didn't peg you for a rebel.""It's not that wild. Just like traveling alone, trying beer, hitting a club, or singing all night.""Oh.""What did you think?""That's nothing. If you want, I can take you now.""But those places are sketchy, aren't they?""Scared? And you wanna be a

    "You know it's nonsense?" Drake asked back."It's just that no one's listened to me ramble in a while," Debra said. "It feels not bad."Drake's long strides forced her to speed up to keep pace. Noticing, he slowed down. "Where's the classroom building?""Huh?""Aren't we going to class?""Didn't you go to the classroom building yesterday?""I forgot the way, okay?""Oh."She took the lead to guide him. Drake followed.The campus was huge, and the path seemed to never end.As they neared the classroom building, Debra said shyly, "I don't really like class either, but I've never skipped."Drake stopped. "If you want me to ditch with you, just say it. No need to beat around the bush.""That's not a good idea, right?" she said, sneaking glances at him. "Can we?"Just then, a motorcycle zoomed by. Without looking, Drake grabbed the handlebar."Whoa, you nuts?" the rider yelled."Give me your bike," Drake said.The delivery guy was stunned by the robbery in broad daylight. Be
