Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1883
"What kind of rumors?" Lillian asked."He ran the show overseas. The police and the crooks all gave him respect. That was before he met your mom," Jordan replied. "To win her heart, he scrubbed his dark past clean. But his legend of wiping out the docks still floats around. Your mom never knew how ruthless he was. He set a good example for all men."Lillian pondered. "I've never seen him throw a punch.""Seamar City's calm now. He has got no chance, Jordan said, ruffling her hair. "Want the real scoop? Ask Juan.""Why him?" Lillian frowned."These two were rivals in love. I bet he did enough investigations."Lillian's eyes lit up, and she headed toward Juan, who was drinking nearby.Solomon grabbed her. "What are you up to again?""I want my dad's stories." She swatted his hand. "Don't you?"Of course, he wanted that. He had idolized Marion forever, but he was born 20 years too late, missing Marion's overseas glory days.Juan checked his watch, stubbed out his cigarette, and
Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 1882
Drake didn't take Robert's words seriously, but soon, people in the other teams started killing each other.He finally saw the gravity of the situation. They were sworn brothers, but survival meant fighting for the top spot.Marion shone, his brains and brawn far beyond that of the slum roots. Sometimes, Drake wondered about his past.Marion didn't seem like a street kid. He knew high-society manners and played their games better than the slickest crooks. In six months, he became Shawn's top pick for heir. Lillian asked curiously, "What happened next?"Drake blew a smoke ring and winced. "He screwed over Robert and me."Lillian's eyes widened. "How?""Ask your dad," Drake said, leaning back.Even after 20 years, he couldn't forgive Marion for that. The betrayal still cut.If Marion had just been just another rival, they wouldn't have held the grudge. But he was their sworn brother.Theda, flushed from drinking, slumped into Robert's arms. "In drinks, they can't beat me."Ro

Robert shrugged.People like them didn't care about holidays.Cathryn waited, but Marion stood there like a wall, silent."I... I've got a class. Gotta go," she stammered, taking off.Drake asked, "You into her?""Nope," Marion said."Why took her gift then?" Drake pressed."It's yours now." Marion tossed the chocolates to him, heading to the dorm.Drake didn't read the foreign text, but the fancy package said it all."What does Miss Bernard like about you?" he muttered. "You should ditch this and be a gigolo. You'd make bank."He finished the entire bar in a minute.Robert frowned. "Too many sweets give you cavities.""Never heard of it." Drake shrugged.He had never had a cavity. He only knew if Cathryn sent Marion chocolates daily, he'd be set.Marion lay down on his bed and started reading.Lights went out, and all went quiet. He dreamt of the car crash again. The dark earth turned bloody.His eyes snapped open, and Caleb's words echoed in his mind. "If you can't fi

"No way," Drake said, shrugging. "I've got you guys. If I get canned, I'll open a shop with my savings. With you watching my back, it'll be fine."Robert smacked his head. "Dream on. You know what happens to those who leave the Bernard family or get eliminated."He paused and added, "Think about our old crew. What happened to them? As long as Shawn sees value in us, he won't let us go. Want to end up begging on the streets? I'll toss you some cash."Drake went quiet. He was just joking.Deep down, he knew once one was in this muck, getting out was almost impossible. They might be stuck with the Bernards forever, always a bodyguard ready to take a bullet."Marion, what's your take?" he asked.Seven years had passed since they met. They had a bond now, with Marion as their brain. In danger, they trusted his judgment."I'm staying," Marion replied blandly.Drake frowned. "You never thought about leaving?"With his ability, Marion could have thrived anywhere else. He didn't have t

Waiting in the car, Marion sensed something was off.He posed as a customer, slipped inside, and drove a razor blade into the guy's throat. Meanwhile, ten others stormed the warehouse and got Drake out.Looking back, Drake didn't know what had fueled their fire. Because of just an order, they had thrown their lives on the line.He took a deep drag on his cigarette, exhaling a slow smoke ring. "Man, we were so young back then."He still remembered that winter when the three of them were pinned down in a dark alley.In those chaotic gang days, the streets crawled with desperate outlaws. They fought hand-to-hand for two hours."You idiot!" Drake growled at Marion. "We're screwed because of you."Robert frowned. "Weren't you the one running off? If not for you, we wouldn't be in this mess." "Who asked you to show up? I could've handled them solo," Drake snorted."Big talk," Robert sneered. "Brag after we get out."The alley echoed with the clink of iron bars. If the gang caught

With Stanley's issue resolved, Randy and Erica returned to the country and threw a celebration bash.It was less a victory party and more a chance to catch up and gossip.Lillian and Solomon sat bored at the table, listening to the adults' bragging."Back in the day, Marion was a legend. Now? Total letdown," Randy sighed. "No joke, when Marion showed up overseas, the whole scene shook. Who would guess 20 years later, he's a stay-at-home dad?"He shook his head. "Time's a cruel thing."Lillian leaned toward Solomon. "When's your dad gonna stop blowing hot air?"Solomon, piling her plate. "He's old and loves spinning tall tales. Eat your food.""Uncle Robert never brags.""He barely talks."Nearby, Robert and Drake sipped drinks, overhearing the kids.They exchanged amused looks. Kids today had no clue what they'd been through. They wouldn't talk like that if they did."Lillian, come here," Drake called.Lillian went over. "What gift for me today?""Want a smack instead?" Dr
