Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1596
"Maybe you never truly understood him," Debra disagreed. "He genuinely cares for Liza. He might have his reasons.""I hope so," Bert said tiredly. "I will do my part against the Illuminati. You young folks are more capable than us. Just promise me you'll take care of Liza. She's been spoiled her whole life and doesn't know the world's dangers."He paused, then continued, "But since she made friends with you, she has matured a lot. I've lived long enough to know that money isn't everything. Staying alive is what matters. Please look after her. She truly values your friendship, and I believe you do too."Debra nodded. "I promise, I'll take care of her.""There's nothing more I need to say," Bert said, handing Debra a badge. "Please keep this."The badge was different from the others they had recently seized. It had a phoenix emblem. It was the most complete badge Debra had ever seen."This belongs to the core members of the Illuminati," Bert explained. "Their goal is to create a pe

Debra found it laughable.They called themselves the great minds of this era after committing all those vile acts. They were no heroes of humanity.They weren't saving the world. They were just securing their wealth and power."By the way, how is Michael doing?" she asked, changing the subject."His injuries aren't too bad. With some rest, he'll recover in a few days. I'll have the butler take you to him," Bert replied.With many questions to ask Michael, she followed the butler to a corner room on the second floor. She pushed open the door and saw Michael lying in bed."Knew you'd come today," he smiled."And you're still laughing? You look like hell." Debra sat down beside him. "How are you feeling?""I'll live.""Who attacked you?""A man in a black cloak and a mask.""The Illuminati?""Given your descriptions, I believe he's one of them.""Why did he attack you?""I turned him down." He placed a black envelope in her hand. "They left this at my hotel room door. Matche

"I feel the same way. But with friends like you, I'm not afraid," Debra said."Do you?" Michael laughed. "You pushed everyone away to face the Illuminati alone.""I still have you," she said."So, I'm important to you?" he asked, looking at her intently."You were the first to believe in me when I had nothing," she replied. "You've been by my side all these years. Of course, you're important."In her past life, she had failed him. In this life, she wanted to elevate him to the top.And he was willing to do anything to support her.Michael looked at her for a long time. "Good to know.""Don't go out or investigate the Illuminati for now. You'll be safe here," Debra said, placing a bag of chocolates on the bed. "I got these from that shop you love. Your manager said you always go there. Get better and don't worry about anything else."Michael stared at the chocolates. After Debra left, he picked up the bag.The chocolates were beautifully arranged in a nine-slot box. He picked

In the past hour, Lara had called her countless times.Debra wasn't surprised. Instead, she calmly called back. Lara picked up quickly. Her voice carried a hint of apology."Fermin came and killed all the servants. I didn't expose Miss Eaton, but I had to send her back. I'm really sorry.""You don't need to apologize. Fermin's a tough one. It's good enough that you kept yourself and me out of it.""Still, I feel bad about screwing up the task.""By the way, why did he kill everyone and spare you?" Debra's question cut sharply.Lara seemed ready for it. "Maybe because I'm the head of the Sharp family. That's what I think."Debra wasn't sold on that answer. "How did he track her down so fast?"Lara's eyes flickered, but Debra didn't press. Instead, she said, "I've got some business back in Seamar City. I'm sorry for the trouble."After the call ended, Lara stared at the screen, wondering if Debra had found out the truth. The question lingered in her mind for only a moment. Then

Debra almost rolled her eyes at that.Drake's smarts came and went. Sometimes he was sharp; other times, she wondered if he was just faking it.Marion had been right about one thing. Drake's reign over Orkgate owed a lot to luck."When you got hit, the Lowe Group went to Jordan," she explained. "But we know Jordan's one of us. After Jeffery died, he handed power back to you. Then you got nabbed by the Illuminati. Orkgate turned into a mess. Sure, the Trennery family looked like they were thriving, but the Sharp family, supposedly under your thumb, didn't take a single hit. Isn't that weird?""You've got a point," Drake muttered, leaning against the headboard. "But the Sharp family has always had clout in Orkgate.""The Illuminati's whole deal is sucking big companies dry to feed their members," Debra countered. "The Sharp family's a juicy target. Why would the Illuminati pass up such a fat duck?"She paused, letting the information sink in. "When Marion and I went to Orkgate to f
Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1601
"What are you doing?" Debra shot to her feet. I'm telling you this so that you can get ready. I'm not sending you to Orkgate and take her head off.""Doesn't she deserve it?" Drake fumed, shoving Kale aside. "I can handle being played by you, but who the hell is she to mess with me?"Debra ignored the rant. "Chill out. This is no rushed work.""How am I supposed to chill?" he snapped. "Orkgate's my turf."He'd just visited Seamar City, and now his home base was slipping away. Anyone would lose it over that."You going back now won't help," Debra said. "The Lowe Group's a tangled mess. You're the boss, sure, but you can't take on the Illuminati behind it. What's confronting Lara gonna do? You'd stand there, powerless to even touch her. That'd just piss you off more.""Mrs. Houston has a point, sir," Kale chimed in. "Better to heal up first."Drake shot him a glare, and Kale shut up fast.Debra went on, "I faked some security footage and gave it to Fermin. Made him think the Illu
Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1602
"Who are you so jumpy?" Debra stared at him, puzzled.Every time Andrew came up, Drake would clam up."I'm injured here," he sulked. "Stop bothering me. You can go if you're done"He turned to Kale. "Escort Mrs. Houston out. Do I have to spell it out?""Yes, boss," Kale said, stepping toward with a polite gesture."Rest up then," Debra said. "I won't have time to chat with you anyway."She glanced at Kale. "Keep an eye on him. Don't let him run around. The Illuminati wants his head. I'm not sure I can save him again.""Understood," Kale replied smoothly.Drake's frown deepened. "Who's your boss here, her or me?"Kale glanced between them, stammering, "You are, Boss.""Then get back here. Since when do you take orders from someone else?" Drake huffed.Debra smirked at his childish outburst. "I'm out."Jordan rushed home when he heard Debra was back."Something up? Why the hurry?" she asked."You're all relaxed, huh?" Jordan joked, dodging work talk. "While I've got a pile
Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1603
"I don't want to drag them into this." Debra shook her head. "The Illuminati's got Drake in their sights. If he weren't at the Potter Mansion, they'd have nabbed him by now. Erica and Randy are too restless to stay cooped up here. Best to keep them out of it for now. I'll explain when things cool off."She noticed Jordan's face turn serious as he stared at the screen. "What's up? Found something?""Not exactly. This address looks like one my..." He caught himself. "Like an investigation I shelved.""What investigation?" she pressed."I was looking into the dark web," he said. "Black market trades. It started overseas, but it's crept into Seamar City. The prefix matches that of the black market."Debra glanced at it. "Don't tell me you didn't notice until now. It's screaming Illuminati.""Knowing that doesn't help," Jordan explained. "I don't know how big it is, who built it, or where their HQ is. Without that, it's all hot air. See why I dropped it?""Fair," Debra said, scrollin

Night settled in deep.Debra and the crew were still waiting for Michael's reply."Still nothing? They don't buy it, do they?" Erica paced, antsy."Give it time. They'll bite," Debra said, clutching her phone.She had promised Kale she would bring Drake back. No breaking that.A text finally pinged her phone. It was Michael.Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Like Debra said, the Illuminati couldn't rule out her having the real stone.If theirs was fake, Michael and his crew couldn't afford the fallout."Marion, it's on you now," Debra said.The Houston family had military muscle on tap. The Potter family owned elite guards and intel. Erica and Randy were solid backups.But this meeting? Debra had to go herself."Does it have to be now? Maybe wait till you're healed?" Erica said.Debra shook her head. "Drake is at risk every day he's with them. I can't take that chance. Just like they can't risk us holding the stone.""She's right," Randy jumped in. "Drag this out, and who

"What're you looking at?" Lara asked, stepping out and spotting Michael by the window."Debra says the stone Drake gave us is fake," he replied."What? No way." Drake shot up from his seat."Are you messing with us?" Lara's sharp gaze landed on him."No. Debra's talking nonsense," Drake insisted."We'll see," Michael said, unruffled.Debra was offering the stone on the condition of meeting with their leader. It fit her style."She thinks she can just waltz in and see our master?" Lara sneered."The stone's a big deal to him. I bet he'll agree," Michael replied, shutting his phone."Don't tell me you're sweet on Debra," she hissed. "You keep letting her off. Don't wanna kill her, huh?""Unlike you, I don't get off on killing," he countered. "If she's not in my way, why bother? You're out there slaughtering, just making enemies for the Illuminati. You're venting rather than serving.""You don't get it. I'm building fear for the Illuminati," she justified herself. "They need to

Oscar set down the receiver and threw his hands up. "I'm not resisting. Don't spook my staff," he said.Chace tried to step in, but Oscar's look stopped him.This incident was major. Almost half of Flesta's people had fallen victim.Everyone at the company, Chace included, got hauled in for questioning. As the head, Oscar was the main target.The line went dead, and Debra's heart sank."Those bastards," Randy cursed, "hitting us on both sides. No wonder the Illuminati has been quiet. They have been gunning for our partners.""They're smart," Debra said. "Can't take us head-on, so they go after our allies. They want everyone to see partnering with us as a dead end. If we let this slide, we're doomed eventually.""What should we do?" Erica stomped, fuming. "We just sit here and watch them pick off our friends one by one?""They're showing us what happens if we cross them. They want us to bow. The only way out is to flip the script and strike first.""Strike first? What does th

Seeing Debra's worried look, Marion said, "You should just focus on healing and leave the rest to us. We might not match the Illuminati, but they won't mess with us randomly here in Seamar City."The Four Great Families had ruled Seamar City for a century. Although the former heads had faded, the new generation was sharper and stronger. They could hold off the Illuminati's push.Debra's phone rang. It was Oscar calling."You free? I've got something to tell you," he said.Debra put it on the speaker. No one could guess the aim of his call.In Flesta, the Odom family's business was booming again. He should have been busy with work."What's up?" she asked."There's big trouble in Flesta," he replied. "We didn't want to bug you, but it's spiraling out of control. We're out of moves.""What happened?" She had a bad feeling.Oscar paused. "A new drug has popped up in Flesta. Tons of our staff got hooked, just like regular folks. The police are on it now. We checked our products and

Debra stared at the pendant.What had happened yesterday came flooding back.Kale was gone, and the fact hit her hard."It's my fault," she said in agony. "If he hadn't gone with me, he would have been alive.""Everyone makes their calls," Marion soothed her. "If there's blame, it's on the Illuminati. I was terrified, almost losing you.""I felt like you were nearby, so I wasn't afraid," she said, leaning into him. "They'll pay for hurting Drake and killing Kale. I'll make sure of it.""No matter what happens, we're in this together," he said.Exhaustion took over. She closed her eyes and drifted off.When she woke up, it was already noon the next day. Her injury kept her from moving much.Everyone gathered outside her bedroom. William came in to check on her."You're fine. Just change the dressings on time," he said, packing up his kit. "You guys can come in now."Debra adjusted her clothes and leaned against the headboard. "Sorry to trouble you.""We're in this together,"
Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1661
William left quickly.Marion got up to lock the door and returned to the bedside.Sitting back into the chair, he switched on a dim lamp, making sure Debra would see him first thing if she woke up."Brother..." Debra mumbled.Marion leaned in. "I'm here."Her murmurs stopped, but her hands shot up, grasping at the air. "It's so dark. Save me."He grabbed her flailing hands right away. "Don't be scared. I'm right here."But she didn't calm down. She clutched his hand, her nails scratching at his skin. "Brother, save me," she murmured, feeling like she was trapped in a pitch-black hold.Cold seawater seemed to swallow her whole. The biting chill seeped into every crack of her body. The stench of the ocean made her gag.The water was up to her chin. She stood on tiptoes, desperate for a breath in that tiny space."Save me." Her eyes flew open.Familiar surroundings came into view. Her pupils darted until they landed on Marion. Her racing heart finally slowed."Marion?" Her v

Not long after, Marion came out with Debra.William nudged Erica and Randy. "Told you it would be soon.""How's she out here fresh after surgery?" Erica gawked.Debra was supposed to recover in the hospital, but seeing her unconscious form on the stretcher, Erica figured he had his reasons."Let's go back," Jordan chimed in. "The Potter Mansion's got a top-notch medical team. If we need gear, I'll grab it.""Yeah, hospitals suck anyway," Randy said. "Let's head back. It's freezing out here."They'd planned to grab food and head in, but Erica had made them wait so Marion could have more time with Debra. Now they were all sniffling."I'm... Achoo." William sneezed again, then bolted for the car. "I'm out of there. It's freaking cold."He had treated so many patients, but this was the first time he had fallen ill.Debra, still out cold, was loaded into the back. Marion stayed close, tending to her.By the time they reached the Potter Mansion, it was the middle of the night.Wil

William rubbed his eyes in disbelief.They had taken the emergency lane to the hospital, but Marion and the others arrived right behind their heels after going through a battle."We floored it. That's not the point," Erica replied.Marion and Jordan were already striding into the hospital.Randy grabbed Erica's arm. "Come on. Let's go.""Huh? William is still here." She was puzzled.Inside, the operating room's red light glowed.Marion arrived first. The hospital director greeted him, saying, "Mrs. Houston is in surgery now. Our top doctors have assessed her. The wound's been handled perfectly, and she is out of danger."Marion's face softened a bit. Erica heaved a sigh of relief. "Thank God. She's fine now."They'd been terrified seeing Debra collapse in a pool of blood."You're wiped out. Why don't you rest a bit?" Erica said, turning to Marion."I'll wait here," he replied, his eyes glued to the red light.Until it turned green, he couldn't rest his mind at ease."Well
Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1658
Michael raised an eyebrow. "My plan never included you. Does our master know you snuck here from Orkgate? And you've got the nerve to question me?"Lara glared at him, her body aching from the burns. Her face twisted with anger."Take Miss Sharp back for treatment. It will take two hours to get back, so she'll have to tough it out," Michael ordered, unfazed.Before leaving with his crew, he lamented sanctimoniously, "Such a shame, ruining a pretty face like that."Lara clenched her fists, incandescent with rage....In the ambulance, Debra coughed up another mouthful of blood. It splattered right onto William's white coat."Aw." William almost griped about the mess, holding back only at the sight of her bad condition.He had to save her, no matter what. It was a promise he'd made to Andrew.He didn't even want to think about what would happen to him if Debra didn't make it today."Maybe another shot of painkiller? We've gotta get that bullet out fast," a medic suggested."Yo
