Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1423
Fermin's smirk faded, replaced by a cold expression."You think I won't kill you?" he hissed, twisting the knife.Debra grimaced in pain, sweat beading on her forehead, but she didn't give in.Jordan pushed through the pain from his injuries and charged forward.Fermin let go of the knife and kicked him in the chest. Jordan felt a tremendous force hit him, as though a truck had run over him. The feeling was far from pleasant, but seeing Debra, who was barely holding on and losing consciousness, he pushed through the pain.If things went on like this, all of them would be dead.Debra's blood dripped onto the gemstones in her hand, triggering a reaction. The stones began to shimmer with a red light."It's working," Jeffrey exclaimed, ignoring the guns pointed at him.He cut his hand and let the blood drip onto his gemstone. It began to glow red, too. The four gemstones seemed to be drawn to each other, pulsing with energy."Juan, see that?" he shouted. "Your mother can be brough

Debra groggily opened her eyes, realizing it was a summer afternoon.She jumped up from the rocking chair, her gaze fixed on the swing set not far away.It felt like a dream."Ms. Frazier," Barton called out. "Mr. Andrew Potter sent me to ask why you haven't changed yet. It's your 18th birthday today. It's a big deal."Debra panicked. "Oh no, I've slept in. Andrew's gonna lecture me again."As she rushed away, Barton called after her, "Ms. Frazier, be careful. Don't trip.""I know." Debra lifted the hem of her dress and sneaked through the back gate.The maids were surprised to see her there.Debra shushed them with a gesture and put her hands together. "Ladies, do me a favor. Don't make a sound."The maids giggled and kept quiet. They all looked away, as if they hadn't seen her.Just as Debra was about to sneak upstairs, someone suddenly grabbed her ear."Gotcha!""Knock it off, Jordan.""Andrew won't be able to protect you this time. Now you're coming upstairs with me."

"Randy?" Debra repeated. "Sounds familiar.""He visited a few times when we were kids," Erica replied."Oh, really?" Debra tried on a red dress in front of the mirror. "What do you think of this one?"Erica smacked her lips. "Well, it's nice, but you already have a bunch of red dresses.""I love red," Debra replied. "It's bold and beautiful, just like the red flowers in Andrew's garden.""How about this one?" Erica picked up a white gown.Debra blurted, "I hate white.""But you have a few white dresses too. White looks so good on you. It makes your skin look like porcelain." Erica was puzzled.Debra pouted. "Nah, white is for dead people.""Oh, come on. It's a happy day. Can't you say something nice?"Erica tossed the red dress back to Debra. "Wear your red dress.""I knew this one was the best." Debra held the dress up to herself, and the stylist giggled.Debra looked confused. "What's wrong? Doesn't this one look good?""Not really," the stylist replied. "It's just as Mr

Jordan came downstairs. "Mr. and Mrs. Frazier, I need to report something. Debra slacked off this afternoon. She just woke up."Debra shot him a glare. "Whose side are you on?""Not yours," he grinned.Jordan's mother intervened, "Alright, don't bicker like kids. You're grown-ups now.""She's just dumb. Mr. and Mrs. Frazier are so smart, but she didn't inherit any of it.""What did you say? You're the dumb one.""You're dumb.""I'm not. You are dumb."...The four seniors listened to their back-and-forth and laughed.Dylan Potter said, "Once Debra's coming-of-age ceremony is done today, let her stay at our house for a few days. Now that they both have been admitted to Arcane Academy, it's time they get some good training."Gael nodded. "Good idea. I'm sure they'll learn a lot under your guidance.""I don't want to," Debra and Jordan objected in unison.They would rather do military training than end up under Dylan's strict control.Gael sighed, "You'll learn something use

"Debra! You came to tattle on me, didn't you?" Jordan shouted, storming into the room.Barton appeared in the doorway soon after, panting, "I'm sorry, sir. I couldn't stop him.""Don't listen to her," Jordan said. "She fell asleep in the backyard."He pointed at Debra. "Admit it. You were slacking off."Debra felt wronged, looking at Andrew with puppy eyes. "I was just too tired, so...""So, you fell asleep." Jordan smugly crossed his arms. "I went through all that trouble to organize your birthday. I picked the cake and managed the kitchen, and you? You slacked off in the backyard. Do you even know how many people are coming today? There are no excuses. Andrew won't back you up on this.""Andrew..." Debra pouted, tugging at Andrew's sleeve.Andrew smiled and winked at Barton, who took the hint and grabbed Jordan by the ear."Sorry, Mr. Jordan Potter, please come with me," he said.Jordan was taken aback. "What are you doing? You've got the wrong person. Debra is the one at fa

Debra perked up. "You can't take back a gift. Wait and see. I'll find you."She rushed back to her room.Jordan was supervising the cleaning. "Hey, we just mopped the floor. Are you doing this on purpose?"Debra ignored him. Finding the gift was her top priority.Erica, who had been looking for Debra, came to the third floor. Debra was on the floor, using her phone's flashlight to look under the bed."What are you looking for?" Erica asked. "We have less than two hours before the guests arrive. Come on, let's get you ready.""An hour is enough," Debra replied. "I'm looking for the gift Andrew prepared for me.""What gift? You've got enough already.""Andrew said a girl's coming-of-age gift has to be special and luxurious.""But everything he gives you is luxurious.""Andrew said as long as I'm happy, he'll give me anything.""Damn rich people."Debra had searched every nook and cranny, but there was no sign of the gift.Erica helped but gave up quickly.Half an hour later

Erica pulled Debra out of the room. "Alright, my lady, it's time to get all dolled up. After today, you'll officially be an adult. Enjoy your last bit of childhood while you can."Debra had been looking forward to this day, but when it finally came, she felt a little melancholic.After this, she would become an adult, which meant no more being spoiled or throwing tantrums.Several big shots arrived for the party. Since the Frazier family's place wasn't as big as the Potter family's, they had decided to host the dinner at the Potter Mansion.The Potter Mansion had never been open to the public before, let alone hosting guests. It showed how much importance both families attached to Debra.A sleek car pulled up in front of the mansion. Jeffrey stepped out first and opened the car door for Claudia.In an aqua dress, the international film star grabbed everyone's attention as soon as she made her entrance.Jeffrey offered her his arm. Claudia smiled sweetly and linked her arm with h

Fermin looked away, his ears turning red. "You look better than before.""What do you mean by that?" Debra huffed."Keep your voice down.""No way.""I'm out of here."Jordan quickly left the room.Erica patted her shoulder. "Alright, it's about time. Let's head downstairs."Debra pouted but soon realized she had a bigger problem."I can't walk.""Huh? You've never worn heels before?"Debra shook her head. She had focused on her studies and had no time for high heels."What should I do?""Just don't run around like you're wearing sneakers, okay?"...Downstairs, Juan arrived right on time.Most of the important guests were already there, including his parents, who were chatting with Gael."Juan, come here," Claudia called, waving him over.She said, "This is my son, Juan, and this is Mr. Frazier, the CEO of the Frazier Group.""Nice to meet you, Mr. Fraizer," Juan said, shaking hands with him."Likewise," Gael replied, impressed. "I've heard things about you. Your fa

Everyone nodded at Marion's call. They split tasks fast.Randy drove Erica toward the Osborne Mansion, speeding through the dark.When they parked, he didn't budge from the driver's seat."Don't stress. I'm here with you," Erica said, squeezing his hand.She knew what ate at him. If Enoch was really the Illuminati's head, it would spark a war. His relationship with Enoch would be unmendable."I never saw this coming," Randy said, his face shadowed with a rare gloom.He had always known Enoch didn't care about him, Yvette, or their family.In fact, he had never known much about Enoch. Without Theda's hunch today, he'd never have linked Enoch to the Illuminati."If Enoch is tied to them, what will you do?" Erica asked, watching him closely.She knew that blood was thicker than water."I don't know." Randy shook his head.Being the heir to the Osborne family never mattered to him, but he could not deny his bloodline.If it came to picking sides, he didn't know if he'd back Mar

His teacher had been worried about that.Randy had racked his brain, wondering what a dad should be like. He'd wanted to roughhouse like other kids, only to receive cold stares.His mother always brushed it off, telling him not to chase fatherly love."Randy?" Erica's voice yanked him back."Huh?" He blinked, seeing everyone's concerned stares."I called you a dozen times. Why were you zoning out?" Erica frowned.Randy grinned weakly. "Well, Theda's got a point. Now I'm kind of suspecting him too.""She left a minute ago," Erica pointed out, squinting at him."I'm not covering for my dad," Randy said. "She made sense. Maybe I'll swing at home. If he's the Illuminati's head, he will be in the valley.""You were absent-minded while we hashed out the plan. Now you're playing seriously?" Erica teased. "We're not pointing fingers at your dad, just saying Theda's theory holds water. If you want to check, I'll go with you. We'll watch each other's backs."She didn't say it out loud,

Theda added, "When Jeffery ditched the Nichols family, even with his smarts, he couldn't build up enough money and power to challenge the four families that fast. Someone had his back. He once told me not to judge a book by its cover. You never know who's laughing last."Her cryptic words left them puzzled.Debra asked, "So, who do you suspect?""I'd say Enoch Osborne," Theda replied.The name dropped like a bomb. Everyone froze and then swung their eyes to Randy.Randy gaped. "My dad? No way. He's a stiff old fart, decent at business but the weakest of the four families. Calling him lazy is generous. He's a stubborn rock. How could he be the head of the Illuminati?""Don't sell your old man short," Theda said. "The last generation of the four families got hit hard. But your family? Only your mother lost it. Your father has played it safe, staying low-key and outlasting them all. I bet he's the one Jeffery meant."She shrugged. "Could be wrong. But if it's him, you're in deeper

It wasn't that Debra's crew was weak, but the Illuminati was too strong.The room fell silent.Theda continued, "Everyone here is riding your call. You know what happens when you throw pebbles at a tank, right?""I'm not backing off. We've got our reasons," Debra replied."I'm not here to talk you out of it," Theda said. "I'm saying if you need me, I'm in."Everyone blinked, caught off guard. She smiled, "What? Surprised I'd join? Or wondering why? Forget Robert's ties to you. You've already done me solids in Seamar City. I can't pay you back much, but I can pitch in here.""How do you plan to help?" Erica asked."Inside job. Boosts our odds," Theda replied. "I worked with Jeffery before. Being a Buchan, he cut me slack. With his Illuminati ties, they might trust me too. Need a message slipped in or intel dug out? I've got you.""You don't have to..." Debra started."No convincing me otherwise," Theda cut in. "It's not just for you. Juan's blood to me. Call it a favor he owes.

"No biggie. I'm just that sharp," Randy grinned."Don't flatter yourself." Erica smacked his arm, turning to Debra. "If that's the play, we'll set up around the valley early.""We scoped it out last time. Here's the terrain map Marion roughed out. Memorize the basics, just in case," Debra said.Jordan spoke up. "I'll plant people inside to learn the lay. If things go down, we'll back each other up."He paused, frowning. "But we've only got one path. Without the full picture, it's still risky.""Got it here," a voice called from the door.Everyone turned to see Theda walking in with Robert. A map was in her hand."It's you guys." Debra was surprised.Theda had been busy with her business. She barely had time to breathe, not to mention show up there."This mess is huge. If the Illuminati takes Seamar City, my business is done," Theda said.She'd seen Jeffery's crazy side. The Illuminati couldn't be anything good.She unrolled the map and stuck it on the board. "This is the val

Liza eased up, knowing Debra was always faithful.She would help if she said so."Is the Illuminati really that bad?" Liza asked, having never seen Fermin cornered like that."Yeah," Debra said flat-out.Liza fought back her tears. "I'm not as smart as you guys, but if I can help...""You've done plenty," Debra said, patting her head.The once-bratty lady had grown into someone brave and kind. They'd all seen her change.But this was too risky. They couldn't bet on her life."Everything's set," Marion said, striding in with Jordan.Liza blinked at their suits. They looked solemn, as if ready for a last stand.Debra nodded. "Alright, let's go over everyone's setup and run through the plan."Randy wheeled in a blackboard that showed the outskirts map.The Four Great Families had owned Seamar City for ages. Their eyes and ears were on every corner.They'd linked up north, south, east, and west, with Juan's lines tied in.According to intel, the Illuminati hadn't sunk deep ro

"Just listen to me and go," Fermin said, pulling his hand free.The next thing she knew, he yanked her toward the emergency exit."Fermin!" she yelped.The restaurant staff, loyal to Fermin, hustled her into the stairwell. By the time the guards outside caught on, she was gone."Get her," the guards barked.If Liza slipped away, Michael would have their heads. But before they could chase, Fermin's crew boxed them in."You know what this means?" one guard spat, dropping all politeness.They knew he was just a puppet. If he broke free, Bert's life would be done."Kill them," Fermin ordered, turning back to the restaurant.A waiter dropped a tray, the crash drowning out muffled screams from the stairwell.Liza was already in a cab. She tried to turn back, but a staffer blocked her. "Miss, you can't go anywhere but Seamar City. The Potter Mansion is your safest bet. Think of what Mr. Eaton's doing for you."Her stay overseas made her a hostage. While she was here, Fermin was lea

The driver hesitated but complied. "Sure, Mr. Eaton. How long do you plan to stay? There's a meeting this afternoon.""An hour," Fermin replied.From their conversation, Liza caught on that their family was under the Illuminati's thumb. The driver would not grill Fermin about his schedule otherwise."Who're you to butt in? He'll hang out with me for as long as he wants," she snapped.The driver bit back his gripes. "My bad. Sorry."Liza clung to Fermin's arm, heart pounding. She had been pampered her whole life, and her family had always been untouchable. She never imagined they'd be under someone else's boot.The car stopped by the mall. Liza and Fermin got out.When the guards tried to follow, she whirled. "My brother and I are going shopping. What're you tagging along for?""Protecting you and Mr. Eaton," one said.She opened her mouth to argue, but Fermin cut in. "They can carry bags for you."She hesitated. With these guards tagging along, they couldn't talk about the si

"Dad." Liza rushed to the bed, grabbing Bert's hand.In her mind, Bert was a stern old grump. He was always tough and sharp.But now, the illness had taken a toll on him. He had shrunk, and his hair had gone gray overnight.Fermin stood behind her, watching with pain.In fact, Bert had been ill for a while now. He had been grooming Fermin for years.But once he'd caught wind of Fermin's plans, Bert would rather kill him and trash their legacy than let him join the Illuminati.Fermin knew this day was coming. Liza didn't. Bert never wanted her to.She froze, feeling like his hand had twitched. She stopped crying and spun to Fermin."Did you see it? Dad moved..." she exclaimed.Fermin clapped a hand over her mouth, a move that confused her.He shook his head, warning her off. She nodded fast, signaling she'd keep quiet.Fermin checked the door and eased his hand off. "Dad's fine. Let's head home, alright?"Liza glanced at Bert with reluctance but wiped her tears. "Okay.""Co
