Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 670
"I've been removed from all my duties at the McKinney Group by your boss. I have to explain things to my boss, don't I? And who else would compensate for my loss?" Debra explained.Not buying it, Kale extended his hand and demanded, "Give me the phone.""Alright." Debra complied.Kale spoke into the phone. "Who's this?""Hello, this is the secretary office of the McKinney Group. Is Ms. Frazier doing alright?" Marion replied.Kale frowned and handed the phone back to Debra. "Mr. Lowe forbids you to contact anyone outside."Debra hung up the phone. "Alright. In that case, tell Mr. Lowe that he owes me 30 thousand dollars in lost wages. If I don't see that money in my account soon, I'll make sure to make things very difficult for you."Kale's frown deepened. "Do you really need that money?""You can figure that out," Debra said. "You know, someone lured Ralph into gambling, which caused my family to go broke. I've just finished paying off my debts thanks to my divorce settlement w

As Debra thought about the pack of birth control pills from earlier that day, she forced a smile and said, "Mr. Lowe, I'm not that hungry.""I know. You didn't like what the hotel served yesterday," Drake responded."No, I'm really not hungry," Debra said.She was eager to excuse herself and prayed that Marion would arrive soon.Drake started eating. As if engaging in casual conversation, he asked, "Kale said you contacted someone from the McKinney Group today.""It was an old colleague," Debra quickly explained. "I had some paid leave to record that show, and they still owe me 30 thousand dollars. I thought I'd ask about it when you submitted my resignation. After all, jobs with salaries like that aren't easy to find."She picked up her fork and knife, trying to mask her nervousness with action. But then she thought about the possibility of Drake drugging the food, so she put the tableware back down.Drake chuckled, "What's the matter? Afraid I drugged the food?"Debra stiffen

Without a glance at the box, Drake handed it to Debra. "Take it.""I won't," she blurted out.Drake frowned. "You're sick. Do you want to end up in the hospital?""Who's sick? Who takes birth control pills randomly?" Debra countered.Drake froze. "Birth control pills?"Kale was just as confused.Debra held up the box. "These are birth control pills. Don't tell me you don't know."Drake stared at the box. The label didn't mention anything about contraception."It's norgestrel," he read aloud. "Where does it say birth control?"Debra was speechless. It was almost unbelievable that a man like Drake, with all his power, had no idea what birth control pills looked like."If they're not birth control pills, why are you making me take them?" she asked."You said your belly hurt. I asked the staff, and they recommended this for pain relief. Don't be ungrateful," Drake huffed.The waitress came up to explain, "Mr. Lowe said you had a tummy ache. I take this for my period cramps, so

"Your men have been held down. There is no escape," Marion said.Drake turned to look at Debra with a cold smile. "Ms. Frazier, you've really surprised me."Debra tried to stand and run to Marion, but as soon as she got up, a wave of dizziness washed over her.She glanced at the wine glass on the table, quickly realizing that the wine had been drugged. Drake had been prepared all along.Before she could steady herself, Kale pressed a blade against her throat.Debra's body went limp, her strength fading fast. Through blurry vision, she could see Marion's panicked face as he rushed toward her, but her consciousness was slipping away bit by bit."I thought the person she contacted this morning was Juan, but it turns out to be you," Drake said calmly as he dusted off his suit. "You know how skilled Kale is. I'll give you two choices: take Kale and me to the airport or watch her die."Neither of those choices was what Marion desired.Debra tried to speak, but before she could, Mar

Marion quickly explained, "That was because..."Debra cut him off. "And you pointed a gun at me. Were you trying to kill me?""No. Kale's reflexes are top-notch. He would never let you die.""So, you were just gambling with my life, trusting a stranger to protect me? What if he hadn't reacted fast enough?""I raised the gun one centimeter higher. Even if he failed to react, the bullet wouldn't hit you."Overcome with sadness, Debra threw herself into his arms, finally letting out all the frustration, fear, and anger she'd been holding in for days."Do you even know what Drake is like? He is a monster," she sobbed, burying her face in Marion's chest.Randy made a quick gesture to the others in the room, signaling them to stay quiet and move carefully. One by one, they slipped out of the room. On his way out, Randy closed the door behind him, giving the two some privacy."I know," Marion whispered, stroking her back. "You're safe now. I'm here with you."Debra gradually calmed d

"Why did you go so hard on yourself?" Marion sighed.He stood up, walking over to the kitchen to soak a towel in warm water.Debra huffed, "It's because of you. What else was I supposed to do when you had a gun pointed at my head?"Marion came back, crouching beside her. He gently pressed the damp towel against the wound on her thigh."My gun will never be aimed at you," he said in a hoarse voice.Debra sensed his exhaustion, reaching out to cup his face. Only then did she notice the circles under his eyes.His exhaustion was barely hidden, and no amount of bravado could disguise the toll the last few days had taken on him.She knew Marion must have gone through hell trying to find her. He probably hadn't slept properly since she'd gone missing.Feeling touched, she leaned forward and kissed him. At first, it was a quick, gentle kiss, but Marion deepened it, pulling her close as if afraid she might vanish again."Debra..." he whispered her name between kisses, his voice thick

"Put me down."Debra panicked, thinking he was about to start something again. She wasn't sure she could handle another round of his endless energy."Scared?""I am. If we stay apart for too long again, I might die in your bed."Marion bent down and silenced her with a kiss."Don't ever say something so unlucky again.""Alright."It had been a close call. If fate hadn't played out the way it did, they might never have seen each other again.A knock at the door interrupted their moment."Guys, are you up yet?" Randy's voice came from the hallway.Debra quickly wriggled free from Marion's embrace."Yeah, what's up?""Edgar's secretary is waiting for you in the lobby. He mentioned an appointment.""Alright, I'll be down in a minute."She hadn't expected Chace to find her so soon.Standing on tiptoe, she playfully pinched Marion's cheek. "Go get me some toothpaste. I've got work to do."Marion smiled indulgently, "Sure thing."In the lobby, Chace glanced around and noticed

Debra furrowed her brow. "You know Edgar killed Kolton, yet you're still going to protect him?"Chace sighed, "I'm protecting Kolton's legacy. I can't just stand by and watch it crumble."He knew very well that if he helped Debra, the Odom family would be pushed to the brink.Debra chuckled, "Who said Kolton's legacy would crumble?"Chace scoffed, "You've spent all this time planning, haven't you? All to bring down Edgar and wipe out the Odom family.""You're half right.""What do you mean?""I do want to bring Edgar down, but that doesn't mean I want to destroy the Odom family."Chace was surprised. Debra had all but won, and even if he laid out all the risks to Edgar, the latter wouldn't listen.Debra had the power to crush the Odom family's financial backing with a single command. Bankruptcy was just a matter of time now."I have my principles. My beef is with Edgar. All of this is just to take him down. I have no intention of wiping out the Odom Group.""Who would believ

Suddenly, Debra remembered something Drake had told her the other day."What would a rich lady like you understand? You value pride over survival. But for small-timers like them? Pride means nothing. Staying alive is all that matters."She frowned. "Theda was abandoned in the countryside when she was little and lived a tough life for over ten years, right?""Exactly.""Then how could she not understand how hard it is for small-timers to survive?"Just then, Theda and Melody took the stage. The purple satin gown on Theda seemed a bit too bold for the occasion.She started, "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for attending the cooperation banquet between the Buchan Group and the Nichols Group. It also marks my new journey as the new president of the Nichols Group. I will lead the company toward an even brighter future."Her speech shocked everyone in the hall.After all, Juan hadn't made an appearance in days. Even if he were stepping down, he should have faced and addressed the

As Erica, Randy, Marion, and Debra entered the banquet hall, they immediately drew everyone's attention. Many people approached them to say hello.Liza tugged at Garland's arm, looking displeased. "These people are shallow. Doesn't anyone recognize us?"As the daughter of the Eaton family, she was usually surrounded by flattering people. But in Seamar City, she was reduced to second fiddle."Calm down. At our place, Debra was treated the same way. It's just home-court advantage," Garland soothed her.Liza pouted. "True. But I should get the respect I deserve. Just open a branch here and make it better than the McKinney Group."Garland smiled wryly. 'That's a fool' talk. The McKinney Group is backed by the Four Great Families. Any one of them is no small matter. It will take our entire family to compete with them.'"I'll try," he said, glancing at "Just work harder," Liza muttered, glancing at Theda, who was walking toward Debra.Theda wore a polite smile, but there was undenia

Even though Liza didn't fully grasp the tangled web of rivalries among elite families in Seamar City, she knew that Theda had been targeting Debra relentlessly.The impromptu trip overseas was all thanks to Theda.Debra stepped forward and took the invitation. "Since they have struck a deal, we might as well see what this is about."By evening, the Royal Hotel was buzzing with activity.Everyone was aware of the Buchan Group's rise in Seamar City. On top of that, the rumors about Theda taking over the Nichols Group were everywhere.Even though the Buchan Group had suffered a setback with Lester's recent scandal, the problems would be nothing if they secured a partnership with the Nichols Group.Erica stepped out of the car, her eyes taking in the extravagant scene outside the hotel.She clicked her tongue. "Wow. Theda knows how to put on a show. I've never seen a banquet this fancy here before."Seamar City didn't have many hotels of this caliber, and few people had the clout t

As Debra and Marion were chatting up ahead, Garland squeezed his way out of the crowd.It was his first time experiencing such fan enthusiasm, and he couldn't handle it. "No, I'm not your idol, just a passerby."But no matter how hard he tried to explain, the fans weren't letting him go.Garland was cute and sunny. Anyone would assume he was a celebrity.Erica and Randy were having an even worse time. Erica's mature, confident vibe attracted a lot of male fans, while Randy's handsome face and playboy look did their part in attracting attention.It took the entourage a full 20 minutes to leave the airport."My God, I've never seen anything like this. These female fans are crazy," Garland muttered, wiping the lipstick off his face."The male fans are no better. They called me Wifey.""They called you what?" Randy got worked up. "Which bastard did that?""Get lost. Stop hovering around me," Erica grumbled, pushing him away.With so many people crowding the airport, Randy had bee

Robert glanced at everyone in the room and turned to leave.For three straight days, Lester was frozen out, while operations continued as usual.Far away on a beach, Debra took off her sunglasses and stood up from her lounge chair.Garland, who had been playing on the sand, looked up and asked, "Are you heading back already?""Yeah, it's time to go." Debra casually tossed her sunglasses aside.In the distance, Marion pulled up in a car. He walked over to Debra, draped a jacket over her shoulders, and said, "I've booked the tickets. Mrs. Houston, your vacation's over.""Are you going back to Seamar City? Wonderful!" Garland jumped up for joy.He'd been stuck here, dealing with all the expenses while the artists and staff lived it up.Finally, he could go back and continue to slack off at the Potter Mansion.Debra scanned the staff, who were still goofing around. "Guys, it's time to head back. There's a ton of work waiting for us. Let's get back on track and stay focused."The

Robert watched Lester leave. "Ma'am, should I stop him?""Let him go," Theda said, leaning back in her swivel chair and closing her eyes. "The penalty fees alone are more than he can afford. He'll have no choice but to come crawling back."She hadn't expected Lester to mess up at such a critical time. Back then, he had promised her that he would rise to the top of the industry. But now, just as things were getting started, he caved under pressure."What's the plan now?" Robert asked."There are plenty of other artists," Theda replied, stretching her arms. "Split Lester's resources among them. If he doesn't want wealth, there are plenty of others who do."She stood up and added, "I'm feeling a bit tired. Go tell them to get ready for an all-out fight. If they pull this off, I'll make sure they're well rewarded.""Understood." Robert left the office and headed to the lounge.Inside, a group of exhausted artists slumped over the tables. When Robert walked in, one of them asked eage

Randy was amazed. "It hasn't even been a few days. Debra's plan works fast.""It's a mind game. They were nobodies, and in less than a month, they rose to stardom. Naturally, their egos are inflated. With all that pressure, it's no surprise they'd lose control of their emotions," Debra explained, hooking her arm around Marion's and leaning her head on his shoulder. "Marion taught me all this. Pretty impressive, right?"Both Erica and Randy were speechless.Garland came downstairs and greeted them. "What's the occasion today? You've prepared so much food."Erica replied, "We're celebrating our first victory. Buchan Group is going down.""Really?" Garland raised an eyebrow.Debra smiled, "It's just the start. There's more fun ahead."Far away at the Buchan Group Headquarters, Robert reported, "Today, the 17th advertiser has pulled out. Even the previous endorsers are terminating their contracts with Lester. We can afford the penalties, but it means all the money we made before is

Marion leaned down to kiss Debra. Suddenly, the bedroom door burst open, taking them aback.They turned to see Randy standing in the doorway.Realizing what he'd walked in on, Randy awkwardly cleared his throat and glanced upward. "Weird, huh? Where'd everyone go in the middle of the day? Guess I'll check downstairs."Before leaving, he added, "Oh, by the way, top trending news. Buchan Entertainment's A-lister Lester Ashford just assaulted a fan."Debra immediately grabbed her phone. Sure enough, the top trending topic was #LesterHitsFan, and the story had gone viral across the internet.She tapped into the headline and saw a video shot by a fan.In the video, fans greeted Lester at the airport as he got off the plane. A group of female fans held banners and chanted, "Lester, we love you."The airport wasn't overcrowded, and everything seemed orderly.But as soon as Lester heard the chant, he smashed his water bottle to the ground and yelled, "Idiots! Does no one want you at ho

Liza grinned cheekily, "My allowance has gone up every year, but don't lose heart. I'll tell Dad to raise your allowance too."She looked at Garland's sullen face and patted his shoulder. "Cheer up. I'm off shopping."She leisurely hummed a song and skipped away.Far away in Seamar City, Robert was reporting his duties to Theda."These past few days, most of the McKinney Group's clients have jumped ship and joined us. Now that their artists are on hiatus, we can grab their endorsement deals. Within a month, we'll swallow up all the resources they're holding onto," he said."Is Debra doing nothing about this?" Theda asked."She did," Robert replied. "Michael has been working around the clock. Debra's trying to use him to salvage the situation. But it's not working.""Michael may be their ace, and Debra's relying on him to secure only luxury brand endorsements. But if she doesn't care about the smaller deals, we'll take them," Theda said, tapping her chin. "Without clients or reso
