Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 105
"See, you guys are my best friends. I messed up last time, so I invited you here to eat, hoping you can forgive me. It was a slip of the tongue. I'm sorry," Shelia said, oblivious to Debra's presence.Debra sat in the corner, quietly listening to Shelia's apology."My boyfriend bought me a house just across from the campus. It's boring to live alone. Why don't you move in with me? You guys are my best friends after all," Shelia said earnestly, holding their hands.Debra almost laughed out loud.'So, Juan was the boyfriend Shelia was talking about.'She understood now. If Shelia really wanted to apologize, she could have done it ages ago. In reality, she was just trying to show off the house Juan had bought for her. That was why she said these things at the most expensive restaurant in Arcane Academy."What are you staring at? Order something," Jordan said.Debra snapped out of her thoughts. "Get me a cup of tea. I suddenly crave it.""Huh?" Jordan was bewildered.Just then,

Carrie couldn't help but scoff, "Who wants to talk with you?""Carrie, I messed up, and I understand your anger. But I sincerely want to apologize to you. Will you forgive me?" Shelia said pitifully, tears streaming down her face.Wendy tugged at Carrie, who reluctantly sat back down."You both know the school revoked my scholarship. Life's been tough, and I can't always rely on my boyfriend. This meal will be paid for with my own money." Shelia bit her lip, looking deeply hurt.Wendy and Carrie had heard about Shelia losing her scholarship, so they softened a little."I'll do anything to get your forgiveness. Carrie, I know you've been through a lot lately. I'm willing to find the Inspection Team and confess. Just please don't ignore me."Carrie turned her head away, swayed by Shelia's words.After all, they had been best friends for three years. If not for Shelia falsely accusing her in front of the Inspection Team, their friendship wouldn't have soured like this."If you con

Erica couldn't help but say, "Marion has a good taste. This dress looks amazing on you."Debra smiled lightly at the compliment.Marion chimed in, "This banquet is not that important. Do you have any plans?"Debra gestured with a hushing motion. "It's a secret."The threshold for the Potter family's banquet was high. Those who attended were all wealthy entrepreneurs in Seamar City.Shelia wore a white dress, looking nervous in the car.She had accompanied Juan to some social events before, but they were trivial compared to this one. The Potter family's status was on par with Juan's.Shelia glanced sideways at Juan, and besides feeling nervous, she also felt joy and excitement. She couldn't believe she was accompanying Juan to such an occasion."Juan, do you really not want Debra to accompany you?" Shelia lowered her voice, showing some hesitation.The mention of Debra made Juan restless.In fact, he had called her, but she hadn't even answered."You don't want to come?" he a

Wendy suspiciously said, "Why didn't you mention the party when you left the dorm today? Usually, if your boyfriend takes you to a banquet, you'd be eager to let us know.""It happened suddenly, and you didn't tell me either," Shelia said with a forced smile. "How come you guys are here?""What, only your boyfriend can attend such occasions, but my parents can't?" Carrie sneered.Their family backgrounds far exceeded Shelia's.Shelia bit her lip. "That's not what I meant."Carrie pressed, "Well then, you've been wanting to introduce your boyfriend to us, right? Since we're all here, why not let us meet him?"Wendy echoed, "Yeah, isn't your boyfriend in business too? He looks like a bigshot. I can ask my parents to invest in his company."Shelia looked troubled. "My boyfriend never lets me get involved in his business.""Come on, your boyfriend sponsors your education, right? And he wants to send you abroad for studies. Every time he goes to a banquet, he takes you along. How co

"Sir, Mrs. Nichols is here," whispered Joe to Juan.Juan wrinkled his brow, having noticed Debra the moment she walked in. Marion was trailing behind, a sight that annoyed him.Debra and Erica walked hand in hand, chatting and laughing. From the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Shelia and the others.Her face bore a playful smile.Jordan had waited inside for a long time. His eyes lit up the moment Debra approached. He abandoned his wine and strode swiftly towards her."What took you so long?" His tone held some impatience but more joy.Debra said, "Allow me introduce my friend, Erica."Jordan froze, while Erica teased, "Well well, the kid from the Potter family has grown up."She moved as if to pinch Jordan's ear, but he quickly blocked her hand. "I'm not a kid anymore."Debra hadn't expected they would know each other.Erica explained, "When we were little, the Potter and Houston families had business dealings. I was the oldest, and Randy was my sidekick. Jordan was t

Shelia just wanted to leave as soon as possible. Carrie grabbed her hand and said teasingly, "What's the rush? Isn't that your boyfriend? He's flirting with another woman right in front of you. As your friends, we'll stand up for you.""Carrie's right. Let's go over there and demand an explanation."Wendy and Carrie exchanged glances, eager to witness the drama between the wife and the mistress.Shelia shook her head desperately.Not far away, the air went oppressive with Juan's approaching. Debra, however, seemed oblivious. "Oh, isn't that Shelia? Why aren't you with Miss Miles? She doesn't look well."Juan's face darkened.He couldn't believe she wanted him to care about Shelia on such an occasion.Erica was full of hostility, and Jordan scoffed, "Just now, Mr. Nichols came in holding another woman's hand. I thought the Nichols family had a new hostess. Mrs. Nichols, why are you here all alone?"His casual words were full of sarcasm.Debra smiled, having no intention of givi

Jordan was hot-tempered. When he heard this, he exploded, "What the hell did you say?"His fierce expression daunted Carrie, who quickly tried to reason with him, "Mr. Jordan Potter, this is for your good. Do you know this woman tried to seduce Shelia's boyfriend? She even went to school to pursue him. Why are you still speaking up for her?"Erica chuckled, "Shelia's boyfriend? Where did she get a boyfriend?"Carrie scoffed, "You're no better, just another escort like this woman. You're not qualified to question me!""Damn!" Erica was infuriated.But before she could take any action, Randy cut in sharply, "Who are you calling an escort?"His loud voice caught the attention of Carrie's parents.When they realized it was Randy speaking and standing beside their daughter, they informed Wendy's parents and hurried over."What's going on?" Carrie's father assumed an elder's posture, clearly protective of his daughter."Dad! They're bullying me!" Carrie complained.Her father sized

Carrie was daunted, hiding behind her father.It was the first time he had seen his daughter so aggrieved. He immediately spoke up, "Mr. Jordan Potter! Carrie is just a kid. Can't you just accommodate yourself to her a little? How could you..."Jordan cut him off, sneering, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"Everyone around wore expressions of anticipation.They all knew Jordan's character.Since he was born, only Andrew could manage him. No one else had dared to lecture him.Carrie's father was displeased. "Regardless, I am a senior.""Oh really?" Jordan snorted with disdain.In this circle, seniority always deferred to those more powerful. Carrie's father was just a minor business owner. Without Debra's invitation, he wouldn't have even been able to set foot here."Mr. Jordan Potter, this woman is just an escort. How can you humiliate my father and me for her? At least we run a business, while she has nothing," Carrie said tearfully.Jordan's gaze became sharper. "Say

"See you around," Michael said, smiling at Marion.His action got under Marion's skin. Taking a deep breath, Marion turned off the stove and took the eggs out.Debra glanced at him. "You seem hostile to Michael.""He's not worth my time," Marion replied flatly, peeling the eggs.Then he walked over to her and gently pressed the egg against her injured spot."This will help reduce the swelling. You went too hard on yourself. It's gonna hurt tomorrow.""Michael was just messing around. Don't be fooled by his innocent look. He's got a mischievous side. I think he just wanted to see if you cared about me. He wasn't trying to provoke you."Marion hummed in response, seemingly unbothered by it.He looked down at the bruise and sighed, "He wasn't wrong about one thing.""What is it?""I failed to take good care of you.""That was my doing. It wasn't your fault.""My job is to protect you. I can't let you get hurt even in the slightest." Marion pinched her nose. "I'll carry you to

When Debra and Marion came back, Michael quickly ended the call."You didn't check in with Hannah before leaving?" Debra asked."This trip is for work," Michael replied, closing his laptop. "Hannah was just briefing me on tomorrow's schedule."He noticed her disheveled appearance. "You guys came back so early. Guess the investigation didn't go as smoothly?""Let's just say it was a bit intense. Marion can tell you about the details," Debra said, sitting down on the couch.Marion habitually warmed up some milk for her and grabbed some pre-sliced cake from the fridge.He didn't stick around in the living room but went straight to the kitchen to boil eggs.Michael raised an eyebrow. "Feels like he doesn't quite like me."Marion heard it, his grip tightening around an egg. Then there was a cracking sound.Michael added, "My visit seems untimely. Should I move out?"But he made no move to get up.Debra took a sip of milk. "No way. I can't let you leave, especially since you're th

God knew how panicked Marion was when that guard raised his gun at Debra."I..." Debra murmured, "I couldn't find you.""That's not an excuse." Marion frowned. "Do you not trust me, or are you just used to handling everything yourself? Even if you stood there doing nothing, I could find you in a second. You shouldn't have rushed it like that.""The doors were closing, and I was worried that the guy would get away, so..." she explained."I don't care about the Illuminati. I care about you." Marion cupped her face, his tone serious. "You can't go solo like that again.""What if I do that again?" Debra looked at him.Marion pinched her cheek and muttered, "I'll break your legs so that you can't run off again."Debra slapped his hand away. "It was a special case today. I won't do it again.""Remember what you said. Don't make me worry," Marion relented, pinching her nose."By the way, what's the situation now?""I've handled it.""How?"He fell silent, but she didn't press furt

The man trembled and spilled every bit of information he knew about the Illuminati."Sounds like you're not so useful," Marion said, watching the man shiver in fear. "Everyone here is guilty. To redeem yourselves, your souls will stay in this castle."Before anyone could process his words, gunshots erupted around them. Screams filled the air. In just moments, the castle was thick with the smell of blood."You're out of your mind!" shouted the man, rushing toward the exit.But before he could get close, he was shot dead."Sir, we'll take care of the rest," said a guard."Make sure to clear all the traces," Marion ordered before leaving the castle alone.His eyes reflected the cold light of the moon. The air around him was chilling.Since the day he arrived overseas, everyone was nothing more than a dead man to him....Debra had a dream of her coming-of-age ceremony.Everyone was smiling, and everything was perfect.Suddenly, a gunshot shattered everything. The world went bl

For a moment, the castle fell silent after the gunshot. Then, more shots rang out, each one chipping away at the crowd's composure.A man, trembling, slowly raised his hands and stood up. "I'm a member of the Illuminati."Others scrambled to follow. "Me too."Within moments, nearly 70 to 80 percent of the people in the room were on their feet.The ones who stayed seated were mostly the "merchandise"—people the Illuminati had prepared. They quickly stood as well."Mr. Houston, have mercy," one of them begged. "We were just hired. We don't even know who's in charge."The men and women, who had been laughing and flirting with the wealthy elites, were now shaking in fear.Barely covered, they huddled together, terrified that Marion would kill them.Marion leaned back in his chair, glancing at the crowd. "Words don't count. Prove it."His men raised their rifles, aiming at the heads of the so-called members."I have proof," said one of them, pulling out a badge. "Here. Look. This

The Illuminati lackeys, totaling 30, were all dead now.Their bodies lined up neatly in a row.Marion took off his mask and casually tossed it into the corner. The guests recognized him and froze in place.Everyone there had heard of his infamous name. But they never thought he'd be bold enough to do a massacre.One of his men placed a chair behind him, but Marion didn't sit. Instead, he slowly stepped forward and casually removed the mask of a plump man.He smirked, When he saw the man's face, Marion smiled in a way that was hard to describe. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Pearson.""M-Mr. Houston..." Harvey Pearson sweated nervously.Marion casually asked, "Does your wife know you're here?" "We're just here to have some fun, Mr. Houston. We haven't done anything to offend you. We wouldn't dare."Marion ignored him, turning to rip off more masks."Mr. Glenn, Mr. Stokes, Mr. Salazar..." he muttered, raising his hand.At the signal, his men removed the masks of the remaining guest

The moment the gunshot rang out, Debra felt a gust of wind rush past her ear, followed by a ringing in her ears. It felt like the whole world went silent.In the nick of time, Marion had appeared and twisted the guard's neck. Then the bullet missed its target.Marion was dressed in a suit and a black mask, like many others did. Still, Debra recognized him at a glance."Let's go," he urged.With the alarm set off, all the guards would be gathering on the second floor in less than two minutes.The two of them rushed downstairs and quickly blended in with the chaotic guests.Unfortunately, the exit had been shut, and guards were closing in on them from every direction.Debra, who had inhaled too much of the gas, was already delirious.Her mind was foggy, and her legs felt as though they were floating. She focused on Marion's hand gripping hers, and memories of someone else holding her hand flooded her mind.The memory was blurry, like a dream, and the figure of the young man in t

It was the symbol of the Illuminati.A man's voice echoed through the castle."Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Kingdom Come. Here, you can fulfill your every craving."The atmosphere in the room seemed to get even hotter because of it, but the voice rang a bell to Debra, whose cheeks were starting to burn.Back in Orkgate, the scent released by Drake's men wasn't this strong.The people around her seemed hypnotized. Many had abandoned their dignity and danced wildly in the ballroom.The gamblers were all in deep, their faces flushed with excitement. Meanwhile, the women on sale started using every trick they could to satisfy the buyers.The male pets were even openly draped around the rich women, their hands roaming all over their bodies.Debra felt sick just watching it from the corner. She looked around, trying to find Marion.Without success, she focused on tracing the source of that earlier voice. She looked up at the second floor, but there wasn't a single soul.She was

The bodyguards at the entrance were intimidating.When Debra handed over her invitation, she worried there might be fingerprint scans or facial recognition. That would make things tricky.But the guards barely glanced at it before waving her through. Debra was surprised by how smoothly things went.This castle was one of the top three landmarks overseas, and it had never been open to the public. During the day, it was a tourist attraction. But now, someone managed to host a private banquet right there.Once inside, she was faced with one more hurdle. Rows of scanners stood ahead, all meant to detect any restricted items.Debra was carrying no gun, but Marion had given her a Bluetooth earpiece to stay in contact.To minimize suspicion, they decided to enter separately. She would go in first, and he'd follow shortly after.She hesitated for a moment before taking off the earpiece and tossing it into a shadowed corner.Just as she stepped forward, someone in front of her triggered
