Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1543
Back then, Debra had been too weak, relying on tricks to survive in the cracks of Seamar City.Now her gaze was determined. She had strong backing and could be herself.For his part, Jordan had made the most important decision of his life because of her.The two cars pulled up at the Potter Mansion. The three of them headed upstairs to see Drake.But as soon as Jordan opened the door, a vase was thrown straight at Debra.Debra froze, and so did Drake on the bed.Jordan kicked the vase away just in time, preventing it from hitting Debra."What's your problem?" Jordan frowned.Drake's face darkened. "Spending a million in a nightclub and booking a hotel room with a gigolo. Debra, you're something else." "Why is everyone asking me the same thing?" Debra rubbed her brows.Jordan didn't interrupt Drake. Instead, he walked in and poured himself a glass of wine."I'm waiting for her explanation too," he said.Juan followed him inside and sat on a nearby sofa.Debra felt the weig

The three men around Debra froze.They all knew Michael was one of her most trusted people.Since the founding of the McKinney Group, he had been there. He was, without a doubt, the person she relied on the most."At that time, I was in my room trying to piece together the Illuminati's and Fermin's motives. Even if Marion was hiding things from me, it didn't mean our misunderstanding had to keep getting worse," she explained. "We could just talk things out. That wouldn't work for whoever was pulling the strings. They needed someone to step in, pull me away from Marion, and create conflict between us."She paused and added, "Everyone was reaching out to me, trying to figure out what was going on. But Michael? He only called once. The moment I answered, I was hoping he wouldn't ask me to meet him. But he did.""That's it? That's the reason?""Yeah. I started to suspect him, but I couldn't be sure the house wasn't bugged. So, I had to play along and get out of there first. Even in M

"I think the Illuminati is so deeply embedded because their members are everywhere. They first make friends, then trick them into joining, expanding the Illuminati's reach." Debra continued, "But most wealthy business people and well-known figures are just doing work for the core members. They don't get close to the heart of the organization. At most, they're just exchanging favors. Those businessmen want power and money, and the Illuminati needs their connections. If necessary, they'll be used as spears and guns.""So, you suspect this guy, Josh?" Jordan asked.Drake chimed in, "Who's Josh? The pretty boy you were with that night?"Debra shook her head. "Not him."Jordan pressed, "Not him? Then why'd you bring him with you?""The members of the Illuminati aren't fools. I just showed them what they wanted to see," Debra explained. "I went to their nightclub, picked their male model, and took him to the hotel. It's like telling them I was investigating them. Besides, I couldn't tak

From Juan's expression, Debra could tell he couldn't let go either.They needed to avenge their families. At the same time, they couldn't let the Illuminati harm those around them.To do that, they needed to know both themselves and their enemies. That was the key to victory and what Andrew had taught her."If you're scared, I'll handle it," she said. "I never planned to tell you about this. Now I hope you'll respect my choice."Juan pressed his lips together, not saying anything else.Whether it was the past or now, he always loved Debra in his own way. He thought he could protect her, but in the end, he never understood her.Making choices for others, no matter how noble it sounded, would often cause more trouble."Alright, do it your way," he said. "But remember, if something happens to you, the people around you won't be happy.""Don't worry. To survive, I'd let go of my pride rather than be headstrong with those people.""Alright. If you ever need anything, send Ben to fi

Debra shrugged. "The Illuminati is plaguing the world. I got a little bit of a saint complex and wanted to wipe them out. Does that make it easier for you to accept?"Drake scoffed, "Saint complex? You and that word don't go together."Debra laughed, "What's that supposed to mean?"He paused, looking up at her. "Is it because of me?"Debra fell silent, and he continued, "You and Marion didn't need to save me. I went willingly.""To die? If we hadn't come, you'd be dead. Do you really think your life means nothing?"Drake shrugged. "I've done plenty of bad things in my life. Death serves me right. You didn't have to get involved.""Should we just sit by and watch you die? The Illuminati has already targeted the stuff you're hiding. They won't let go. Leaving this place only gets you in trouble," Debra retorted. "Marion sees you as a brother. He'll never just let it slide, and neither will I. They grabbed you, and you went along without a fight? Since when did you get so easy to c

Drake's face darkened. He grabbed the candy wrapper and tossed it into the trash."Marion was talking nonsense," he said.Debra grinned, confirming his love for candy. "Whatever."As she turned to leave, Drake suddenly added, "Thank you.""Huh? For what?" She looked back."Forget it," he said, looking away."Alright, I get it." She turned around and waved her hand. "The candy was swiped from the plane. You can take some next time if you want."He threw a pillow at her, but she had already left. The pillow hit the closed door and fell to the floor....Jordan had already arranged a room for Debra. It wasn't the one she used to share with Marion."Thanks.""What if Marion comes to find you?""We'll deal with it when he does.""Alright, get some rest. If you need anything, just call me.""Alright. I won't be shy."She entered the room and turned on her phone. The notification was full of messages from Erica, mostly asking if she had arrived in Seamar City.[I've arrived. E

Randy frowned. "What do you mean? Jordan doesn't want to see us?""It's Mrs. Houston," replied the guard. "She doesn't receive anyone for now.""I don't buy it. She just messaged me last night." Erica turned to the house and shouted, "Debra, it's me. We've come to see you.""Miss Mathis, please don't make noises here," the guard reminded her.Erica and Randy had stayed at the Potter Mansion before, so they were familiar with the guards."We've met before," she said. "Name the price.""This isn't about money." The guard stood his ground."Do I need to force my way in?" Erica twisted her wrists.The guard took a step back, grabbed his walkie-talkie, and spoke into it.In an instant, the alarms went off, and a group of highly trained bodyguards rushed up.Erica laughed, "Is this what Jordan is up to? Acting like some kind of gangster boss, using top-level security like this. When Andrew was around, we never had to deal with all this.""According to Mr. Jordan Potter, Mrs. Houst
Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1550
Marion returned from overseas seven days later.In those few days, rumors about his and Debra's failing marriage had reached a fever pitch.Some said Debra had become numb to the idea of marriage, spending every day with hot escorts. Others claimed that she had secretly been keeping a toy boy at home and that she had started a romantic relationship with Jordan.All kinds of topics about her flooded the internet.At noon, Debra came downstairs from the second floor, biting into a piece of bread as she looked at her phone, laughing so hard she could hardly stop."Someone calls you a homewrecker. Want to see it?" she said, handing her phone to him.It had to be said, this generation of netizens knew how to dig up dirt.Many claimed to be students from Arcane Academy, fully aware of the relationship between Debra and Jordan. They uncovered old photos from two years ago when the two often hung out together and even that famous picture of Debra coming out of a nightclub, wearing Jorda

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
