Chapter 1466

Penulis: Cozy Season
The footage stopped at this point because the surveillance cameras outside had been tampered with at some point.

That black sedan was captured by a street camera a kilometer away. It was clearly headed toward the villa area, but the cameras within the area didn't catch any sign of it.

"I haven't seen this car before," Kale replied with a frown. "Doesn't look like one from this neighborhood."

"Check the license plate."

"Got it."

Kale quickly recorded the plate number and began the investigation. In less than ten minutes, the results came back.

"The car is registered to Jeffrey," he said.

Debra's mind reeled at the name. Even though she hadn't seen the body, many others had when Jeffrey was pushed out.

The Nichols family had already prepared for the funeral. He couldn't be back from the dead again.

Juan's earlier words sounded in her mind. "Things are not over yet."

She quickly pulled out her phone and called Juan.

The line went through quickly, and his voice came through, "Wh

    Pedro waited outside the police station.As soon as Debra and Marion stepped out of the car, he approached them."Everything's ready. You can go ahead and begin the interrogation.""Thank you, Mr. Hardy.""No worries. Please, this way."Pedro led them to the interrogation room where Joe sat handcuffed. After the recent incident, Juan sent him to the police.He had been working with Jeffrey all these years, either knowing or participating in all those schemes. His arrest was far from unjust.Debra got straight to the point. "Who's behind Jeffrey?""I don't understand," he replied.Debra picked up a stack of documents. "Based on the evidence Jeffrey left behind, we've found clues pointing to someone else behind the scenes. You were Jeffrey's right-hand man. How could you not know?""I really don't know," Joe smirked. "I'm already in this place. Why would I lie?""You see, we've known each other for a while," Debra said. "If you tell me the truth, I can bail you out."Joe rema

    Debra said, "Joe isn't afraid of death or jail. He is loyal to Jeffrey and committed to the Nichols family. The composure he demonstrated tells me something. Either he knows someone's coming to get him out, or he's just a die-hard follower.""What if it's the latter?" Marion asked."Then we have to gamble. I need your help to prepare a backup.""Got it."Debra and Marion walked out of the police station together.Pedro froze, then hurried up to their side. "Is it done? That was fast."Debra said, "Mr. Hardy, I'll need your help tonight."Pedro straightened up. "Just say the word. I'll do my best.""Someone is coming tonight. Aside from a police uniform, I'll need you to work with me and put on a show.""Sure thing. Let's do it.""Thanks, Mr. Hardy.""No problem. I'll get everything ready."...Soon, it was evening.Outside the police station, it was eerily quiet. Not a soul was in sight.Two officers escorted Joe into the interrogation room. Across from him sat Pedro."

    Pedro was watching the interrogation room when, suddenly, gunshots rang out.He jumped up. "What is going on?"There was no response.He was alarmed, and the officer inside the interrogation room stopped punching.Lying on the ground, Joe turned his head and looked over.The door burst open, revealing a masked man holding a gun.Pedro instinctively reached for his pistol, but the masked man was faster. One shot, and Pedro dropped.The masked man stepped forward and pushed open the door to the holding area.The officer who had been roughing up Joe froze in fear, but the intruder had no intention of sparing his life. Without hesitation, he raised his gun and fired a shot straight into the officer's chest.Joe pushed himself up from the floor. His voice trembled with hope. "Did our master send you to save me?"The masked man didn't answer. He simply grabbed Joe and turned to leave.Joe whispered, "Why did you kill them? What if this causes an uproar?""Mere cops don't matter,"

  • Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right   Chapter 1470

    Joe was dumbfounded.Debra continued, "Too bad, your master never planned to save you."Joe's head throbbed. He stepped back, ready to run. But as his head turned, he saw Pedro and that police officer, who were supposed to be both dead.They quickly came up to restrain him."You tricked me!" Joe growled, realizing it was all a trap to get information from him."Blame it on your foolishness." Debra shrugged. "Spill what you know, and I'll let you go. Otherwise..."Seeing his reluctance, she stepped closer. "Trust me. Your master won't save you. And the afterlife is far ahead. Why not treasure this one?""Are you really letting me go?""I'm a woman of my word. Tell me, and you're free.""Alright. I'll tell you."Joe leaned in and whispered something to Debra, who then arched an eyebrow."Where do you think he keeps Drake?""Orkgate.""Alright, you're free to go."Pedro was surprised. "Are you sure about this?""Let him go," Debra insisted. "He's of no use to us now."The

    Joe pushed the door open, and the cold wind blew in.Everyone turned their heads, except for one person standing in the middle of the hallway."Master..." Joe staggered inside.The person slowly turned around, unfazed by the sight of Joe's bad injuries.Not far away from the church, a guard from the Houston family held his breath, watching the situation in the chapel.He quickly sent the location to Marion, but a sharp knife was suddenly thrust into his neck.The phone slipped from his hand and fell to the ground. His body then collapsed into a pool of blood.The killer, wearing a white mask, entered the church and reported, "Master, there was a tail outside."His words caused an uproar in the crowd. The believers shot up from their seats."What?" "How is that possible?"...The bishop turned to look at them, and the noises died out immediately.His gaze fell on Joe, who panicked. "It wasn't me, Master. I swear."That killer stepped forward and sliced his throat.Joe pr

    "Let's go." Marion led Debra out of the church.The street outside was empty, with only their people searching for clues."This church has been here for over a hundred years. It's right in the city center, and during the day, it's a busy spot and a cultural landmark," Debra mused. "I remember a few missing cases here. It caused quite a stir. Some people said this church was haunted by ghosts of those dead during the wars. Many paranormal investigators came for clues but left with nothing. Because it caused panic, they started locking down this street at night, and no vehicles were allowed in.""My people won't make a mistake," Marion muttered. "This church has to be one of their hideouts. I don't know how many more are there across the country."Debra started to think of those people at the Jovial Hotel. Their eyes were as cold as ice. The thought of them alone made her shiver."I have an idea. Do you remember the hunter game I went through with Liza at the Jovial Hotel?""I do."

    "Mr. and Mrs. Houston," Lara greeted, inviting them to take seats. "I know you two rushed here by plane. The food is ready. Let's eat and talk.""Sounds good," they replied.A maid came downstairs and handed a file to Lara. "Miss, here are the files you asked for."Lara nodded and handed the file to Debra."This is the batch of files you mentioned on the phone. I picked out what I thought you'd need.""Thanks.""No worries. If it weren't for you, I'd still be a maid in the Lowe family. You taught me how to take control of my destiny. I'll always remember that.""You made your own choices.""True, but without you, I wouldn't be the head of the Sharp family now."Lara had learned a lot from Drake, which helped her manage the Sharp family so well. Now that Drake was in trouble, she couldn't just sit by.Debra opened the file. It contained records of the Sharp family's financial dealings over the years, including some shady businesses and the favors they had done for the Lowe fam

    "You don't know?" Lara was surprised. "Mr. Lowe came back a while ago but only stayed for two days. He left with a lot of documents. If it weren't for him to step in and clean up the mess, the city would still be chaotic."Debra chewed over her words, figuring Drake must have already realized something was off. His vigilance was impressive, and his intelligence had improved."Would you like to rest here for a couple of days?" Lara asked. "A lot of things have happened recently, but my place is safe enough. And there are other files you might want to check.""Thanks for your kindness, but we can't stay long," Debra declined.With Drake still missing, they couldn't afford any delay. His life might be hanging by a thread now.Lara didn't insist. "I understand. I'll have the files copied and sent to your phone.""Alright.""But there's a lot of material. It might take a while to review them.""It's fine."Before leaving, Debra suddenly turned back. "By the way, have you ever heard

    The Illuminati was so eager to take back the Jovial Hotel. Its significance to them was plain to see.Just then, a round of gasps interrupted her thoughts.Debra looked up and saw a woman in an elegant outfit descending from the second floor. Her beauty was undeniable, drawing the attention of many people."That's Mr. Trennery's goddaughter," Lara snorted.Grover was doing the same thing Conrad had done before, using his so-called goddaughter to lure in wealthy businessmen. It was disgusting.Yvonne had ended up jumping to her death. It was unknown how long this woman could hold up."Lexie, come here," Grover called out warmly.Lexie Trennery beamed. Her elegance was ethereal, and her pure innocence far exceeded Shelia's back in the day.The wealthy businessmen stared at her as if she were a perfect commodity on display.Lara frowned. "That bastard is planning to make a fortune off her tonight. Or maybe he wants to use her to gain power and influence."But then, the crowd's a

    Lara also had a dark memory of the Jovial Hotel.That was where she had overthrown Conrad, but she managed to keep her composure on the surface.The hotel was still bustling with people coming and going. Debra held Lara's hand as they walked into the hotel.The pale moonlight cast a cool glow on Debra's face. People around them couldn't help but stare. Everyone knew about the troubles in Debra and Marion's marriage.Debra noticed the looks but kept a faint smile on her face. She knew too well these people were judging her, wondering how she would react to seeing Marion later.Grover stood at the hotel entrance, welcoming the guests. When he saw Debra and Lara, a smug look crossed his face.The last time they met, he wasn't important enough to stand with them. But now, he was the host of this grand banquet."Mrs. Houston, Ms. Sharp, long time no see. How have you been?" he greeted.Most of the other guests were to watch the fun. In the past, Debra would have been the center of a

    Debra instinctively tried to open the bag, but Drake stopped her. "Open it when you get to Orkgate."Debra paused at his serious expression. "Alright."She took the bag and went upstairs.The trip didn't need much packing. The last time she had gone there, she had been with Marion.She quickly shook her head, trying to push him out of her mind, but the longing wouldn't go away. Back then, Marion had taken care of everything. All she had to do was trust him.By evening, she landed in Orkgate.A car was already waiting for her at the airport.Inside, Lara sat elegantly in a purple dress, looking even more refined than before."I've already arranged your accommodations. The Sharp family may not be as powerful as the Lowe family, but at least we can offer a decent place to stay.""I already spoke to Drake. I'll be staying at the Lowe Mansion tonight.""That's fine. But no one's been living there for a while. It hasn't been cleaned. I can send someone over now to take care of it b

    Even though Jordan had put it mildly, Drake's pride was still injured.His name alone used to instill fear. The other big shots in Orkgate had to yield to him.But with Fermin's interference, the power dynamics had shifted. Although Drake had regained control of the Lowe family, they were facing reforms.Orkgate was now more chaotic than ever. On the surface, everything looked calm, but behind the scenes, there was a storm brewing. Everyone was eying the throne."I'll go back now," Drake said suddenly.Debra frowned. "Kale, stop him."Kale immediately stepped in to block him.Drake's expression darkened. "Your boss is me, not her.""Boss, you can't go out now," Kale said.The people from the Illuminati were probably waiting outside the villa for Drake to come out and step into their trap."Lara is still there," Debra chimed in. "The Sharp family has some influence in Orkgate now, and the Trennery family wouldn't dare to act recklessly. They couldn't be so stupid as to attack

    In just three days, D&M had booked out all its spots for the next month.Even though it covered more than ten thousand square meters, it was still packed to the brim.A knock sounded at the door.Debra was in a good mood. "Come in."The door opened, and it was Jordan with a hesitant look.She realized that he'd seen the news. "Are you upset that I didn't tell you in advance?""You must have your reasons. I won't ask, and you don't have to say anything. But don't you think the club's name is a bit too obvious?" he replied. "Anyone could guess that it's related to you and Marion. If the Illuminati finds out, wouldn't everything you've done be for nothing?"Debra brushed it off. "It could be Drake and Marion."Right now, the news about her only focused on her romance with Jordan. Their cohabitation had been exposed, but neither of them had clarified anything.Jordan had thought she didn't care about the rumors. But now, it was clear that he had misjudged. Debra was dropping smoke

    Drake turned and left the room, closing the door behind him.Debra then heard him locking the door. Her face darkened instantly.Clearly, that made her escape impossible.Kale stepped forward to support him. "Boss, what's the plan?""Debra wants to open a nightclub to go up against the Illuminati. She plans to gather customers and get more intel on the Illuminati," Drake replied. "It's a good idea, but she's never run a nightclub before and doesn't know the ins and outs. A new club can be easily targeted, and fights are constant, especially in chaotic places. She and Marion are in a cold war. He can't help her clean up the mess. We'll have to take care of it for her." Kale nodded. Though he hadn't liked Debra at first, after spending some time with her, he realized she was a righteous person.Drake continued, "I remember that some of our employees used to work in this line of business. Get them here and sort through them carefully. They have to be our people with decent looks."

    "Take a guess," Debra grinned.Jordan sighed, "If you're just looking for some fun, I won't stop you. But you can't go overboard, alright?"Debra laughed, seeing that he was taking it seriously.It seemed that in just seven days, her reputation in Seamar City had become quite something. Word had spread that she was a flirt and was slowly letting herself go.Several partners were even trying to push male artists into her arms.She didn't see this as a bad thing. No one could resist handsome boys. That was right up her alley.After Jordan left, Ben called."Madam, we need to transfer another sum of money overseas today, about 30 million dollars.""Send it.""But in just seven days, we've already transferred 70 million dollars."Though it was Debra's decision, 100 million was no small amount for the company."Do as I say. Don't tell anyone about it. If we can't pay it back by the end of the year, I'll cover it myself.""Yes, ma'am."Debra hung up the phone and pulled out the

    "Pacemaker. Increase the voltage." The sound of the doctor's urgent voice echoed in her ears.There was a lot of blood. She could feel it, and the sharp pain was attacking her mind.Debra felt disoriented. She thought she saw the operating room ceiling, bright lights blinding her eyes.Everything in front of her was blurry, like something that had happened in a past life.Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her arm.A cold sweat ran down her back. When she opened her eyes, she saw Jordan sitting beside her.The house was calm and peaceful. Everything that had happened was just a dream.It had been a long time since she had such a nightmare. She didn't know if it was because Marion hadn't been by her side lately, but she couldn't shake the sense of unease.Jordan had soaked a towel in warm water and placed it on her forehead."Without Marion around, you just can't take care of yourself, can you?" he said."What's wrong with me?" Her voice was hoarse."You've got a fever, and y

    "Debra, I can explain," Marion started.Debra cut him off. "There's nothing to explain between us. I know what you're about to say, but I don't want to hear it."She paused deliberately before adding, "You should know why I divorced Juan. I've told you before. If you ever betray or deceive me, I will turn around and walk away without a second thought."Marion didn't know how much of this he was taking in, but he didn't interrupt her.She continued, "From today on, we're done. I don't want to have anything to do with an emotionless killer. Don't waste my time. I just want to find someone who loves me, while you don't even have the capacity to love."Her words were harsh, and the people around them sighed.They didn't know the full story, but they saw everything Marion had done for Debra. No other man in the world would do the same.For her, he could even give up his life. If that wasn't love, then what was?"Alright, I understand," Marion choked a little, looking sad.From his
