Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1584
Andrew's study always had a faint scent of medicine, which had a calming effect.Debra never enjoyed lectures, but Andrew insisted.One afternoon, as she was feeling drowsy, Andrew's sharp answer jolted her awake."The usual way is to find a way out. But if your enemy sets a deadly trap, you need to think outside the box. Lure them in and create an opening for yourself.""Like a diversion?"...Debra's thoughts drifted back to the present.The Illuminati wanted Drake's raw gemstones, but Fermin might not be after the same thing.They were targeting Marion, aiming to destroy him through his marriage to Debra.She just didn't know their ultimate goal. To break up the Four Great Families was just the surface.Even if the four families were declining, the Illuminati couldn't even breach the Potter Mansion, so they must be after Marion's overseas assets. With those resources, they could expand their influence.Fermin, on the other hand, wasn't truly loyal to the Illuminati. They

"What the hell are you doing? Do you know who I am? I need to meet your boss," shouted those wealthy businessmen.Debra's car pulled up outside the club.Josh walked up to her and handed her a piece of clean cloth.She took it, then casually stuffed it into one of the businessman's mouths. A faint smile played on her lips as she said, "Mr. Pearson, long time no see."Harvey broke out in a cold sweat. Soon, more people were brought into the room.Debra took a seat on the sofa and said, "You're all members of the Illuminati, right?""What Illuminati? Never heard of it," they quickly denied it.Debra nodded. "Over the past few days, all your expenses here at the club, including your 'extra-curricular' activities, should be enough to get you locked up for a while. And those shady assets hidden in your companies? Under the local law, that counts as financial crime, doesn't it? The amount involved is massive. Also, bribery, sex-for-power deals... I'm guessing that's a death sentence?"

"Where's Marion?" Fermin demanded.His subordinate kept his head down. "Sir, Marion is in Seamar City under the watch of our people. He couldn't have gone overseas.""Then who was leading these actions?""It's the Houston family's army."Fermin's face twisted into a cruel smile.The Houston family's army only took orders from Marion, but that man was wasting away in Seamar City. Yet his men were active overseas."Sir, should we go back and handle the situation?""Not until we find Liza. I can't leave without her.""But...""No buts. Send someone to find out who's in charge overseas. The rest of you stay in Orkgate and find Liza.""Yes, sir."The subordinate hurried off to relay the orders.Fermin stood in the largest casino in Orkgate. His men had searched every corner but found nothing."Where could she be?" he muttered.In any other city, he wouldn't be this worried. But Orkgate was chaotic, with black markets, casinos, and human trafficking. Many had tried to clean it

Lara pushed the bowl toward Liza. "I heard you liked these kinds of desserts, so I had someone make it for you. I hope it's to your taste."Liza indeed craved dessert, but when it came from Lara, she held back."I just had dinner. Just leave it there. I'll have it later.""Alright, I'll leave you to it."Once Lara was gone, Liza studied the dessert and hesitated.Ultimately, she decided not to eat it. After all, it was still uncertain if Lara was a friend or a foe. There might be poison in it....Debra had wrapped everything up.Fermin's influence in the area had been systematically dismantled. It was difficult to wipe them out, but his key partners had switched to her side.Once everything was set, she anonymously sent a pre-recorded video to Fermin's email.The footage showed how Liza was kidnapped and taken from the Jovial Hotel to the Sharp Mansion. The video cut off abruptly right at that moment.Debra leaned back in her chair, curious about Fermin's reaction. More tha

"Master? Only fools like you believe him," Fermin snorted. "Since you worship him so much, you can meet him in hell."His men began their assault on the Illuminati members. In moments, the scene was a bloodbath.Fermin remained impassive until a subordinate reported, "Sir, everyone is down.""We're going to the Sharp Mansion," Fermin ordered.His men quickly cleaned up the scene and got into a convoy of luxury cars.That day, the streets of Orkgate were filled with the blaring of horns. People were confused, but such scenes were common in the city. To avoid trouble, everyone cleared a path.The entrance to the Sharp Mansion was surrounded. Liza, who was about to go to bed, heard the commotion and tensed up.Lara quickly entered her room, and she asked, "What's going on?""Fermin's men are here. You need to come with me," Lara said urgently.Her mind was blank as she followed Lara to a wine cellar in the basement. Lara straightened her nightgown and headed upstairs.Outside,

Fermin stepped in front of Lara, pressing the barrel of his gun under her chin."Do I need to spell it out for you? Conrad is not a core member of the Illuminati. You are."She might have fooled the world with her perfect disguise, but she couldn't fool him, who was also deeply entrenched in the Illuminati."I remember seeing you about ten years ago," Fermin said, tapping the side of her face with the gun. "I never forget a face. You're that old man's goddaughter, known as an expert in disguise. Now that your cover's blown, take a guess. What will happen next?"Lara's innocent look disappeared, replaced by an insidious smirk."You're making a grave mistake by messing with me," she murmured.Fermin didn't flinch. He pressed the gun against her chest. "Don't test my patience here. I've already killed plenty of people today. One more won't make a difference.""If you kill me, the Illuminati won't let you go. You know what happens to people on their hit list," Lara sneered. "Your fa

Liza was alone in the pitch-black wine cellar. Gunshots echoed from upstairs.She desperately wanted to see what was happening, but the door had been locked.Finally, the noise stopped. But the silence was even more unsettling.Suddenly, the iron door creaked open. Liza hid in a corner, fearing the worst.Then she heard Lara's voice. "Miss Eaton, it's me."Liza peeked out from her hiding spot. Her voice shook as she asked, "What's going on out there?"Lara rushed in and helped her up. "Fermin... He killed everyone in the house."Liza was stunned by the news."But don't worry, his men didn't find this place," Lara reassured her, holding her hand tightly. "But you can't stay here anymore. Fermin is worried about you. If he doesn't find you, he might kill more people. If you go back to him and say you got lost, he won't blame you."Liza was still reeling from the shock. Fermin had always been kind to her, never showing his ruthless side. But those gunshots..."Are you okay?" she

A heavy weight settled in Liza's chest. If it weren't for her, those servants wouldn't have died."I've arranged a car outside," Lara said. "The driver will take you to Fermin. Just make sure he never finds out I sheltered you. Otherwise, Mrs. Houston and I will both be in trouble."Liza didn't want to cause Debra any more problems. She agreed without hesitation.Outside, the driver was already waiting.Lara stood at the doorway, watching as Liza left. The worried expression on her face slowly faded.Stepping back into the house, she surveyed the wreckage around her. The thick, metallic scent of blood filled the air, but she didn't seem to mind. Instead, she casually sank onto the couch, picking up a glass of wine.After a moment, she stood up and walked over to a vintage record player. She placed a new record onto the turntable, letting elegant music flow through the room.She hummed along and began to waltz. Her arms moved as if she were holding someone close, her steps light

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
