Semua Bab Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right: Bab 1271 - Bab 1280

Everyone was deep in thought when Debra caught sight of Jordan standing a short distance away.She hadn't noticed when he arrived, and neither had anyone else. They were all too absorbed in watching the news to pay attention.Randy followed Debra's gaze and looked over. He jumped. "Jordan, you scared the hell out of me. Why did you walk without a sound?""I've been here for ages," Jordan replied calmly. "You were all so focused on the news that you didn't notice me.""Kid, looks like being in the army really changes a person. I didn't even notice you sneaking up. You've gotten pretty good at hiding your presence," Erica chuckled, patting his shoulder.Jordan frowned. "I'm not a kid anymore. I have a name. Stop calling me that."Erica wasn't bothered. "You'll always be our little brother. Don't forget who taught you how to do a spinning kick when you were little."As the tension eased a little, Debra spoke up. "Let's head to the office. Who knows what kind of chaos is brewing ou

Juan was unperturbed. "Why do you think I'd show her mercy?""Wouldn't you?" Melody asked back, taking a deep breath. "She is nothing but trouble to us. You made foolish choices for her and experienced an exile life. Now you should know how fortunate you are to lead our family."She then handed him a document. "This is the 10% stake I spent my entire savings to buy from Debra. With this, you're the largest shareholder. No one will be able to shake your position again."Juan glanced at it, a self-mocking smile playing on his lips.Melody had held onto these shares all her life, never intending to hand them over to him. Now she was offering them willingly. Clearly, things hadn't been going well for her lately."Don't worry, Grandma. I won't give them a way out. Marion will die, and so will Debra," he replied.Melody was surprised. "What?""Why? Didn't you want her dead too? You even hired someone to kill her, didn't you?" Juan asked, puzzled.Melody forced a smile. "It's true, bu

Andrew was lying on his bed, looking pale.Barton closed the door as Debra and Marion came up."Mr. Andrew Potter's condition has been fluctuating and never seems to improve. This time, it's especially severe. He might not be able to get out of bed for a while," he said.The doctors were holding a meeting in the adjacent room.Debra glanced over at Ivan, who was cleaning the second floor."Can we see him now?""Mr. Andrew Potter needs rest. Only one of you can go in."Barton's gaze shifted to Marion, who asked, "Who does he want to see?"Barton cleared his throat and looked at Debra. "How about Mrs. Houston going in?"Debra was speechless. These people sure had convoluted ways of doing things, even their speech was like a puzzle to figure out."Alright," she finally said.Barton pushed the door open, and Debra walked in.Outside, Marion leaned against the wall and lit a cigarette.Barton said, "Mr. Houston, here is a no-smoking zone.""Will he die because of it?" Marion r

Emotionally, Debra didn't want Marion to hide anything from her.But she wasn't stupid. What Andrew had said earlier was practically a hint.Marion tightened his grip on her hand and murmured, "I love you."Those words came out of his mouth less smoothly than usual.He gently brushed Debra's head and added, "Don't overthink it. Just give me some time, okay?"There was an almost pleading tone in his voice. It was something Debra had never heard from him before.He was definitely hiding something, and it was serious.Debra caught those two pieces of information."Did you cheat on me?""Absolutely not.""Am I not your first woman?""You're the only woman I've ever had.""Have you done anything against your principles?""No."Marion's answers were surprisingly quick, almost anxious.Debra smiled in relief, "Then I'm not worried."Marion seemed taken aback.Debra continued, "What I want is a man who loves me completely. He might not have money or power, but he has to love m

"Randy, get the hammer from the trunk," Erica said. "Let's beat the crap out of them.""Are you serious?" Randy swallowed hard.He didn't think they needed to go that far. Fighting with hammers could kill these people. Giving them a small punishment would be enough."Erica...""Cut the crap, and do as I say. Or I'll beat you up too."Randy shook his head and complied.The thugs quickly rushed up. Erica swiftly raised her leg, her high heel slashing across one face and leaving a deep gash.The thugs kept charging, thinking they could crush her with their number.Through their moves, Erica sensed their desperation to kill Randy and her.It prompted her to launch even fiercer attacks. Every move she made was aimed at a vital spot.Randy watched in awe, tossing the hammer to her. Once armed, Erica was almost unstoppable.Caleb had trained her at a young age and taught her how to use agility and speed to her advantage. With these skills, she could beat people with greater strengt
