Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 91
With those words, all three people looked at Debra.She snapped out of her thoughts, touched her flushed cheeks, and said, "Maybe.""A cold shouldn't be taken lightly. I'll have Marion take you to the hospital later."Erica was eager to create opportunities for Debra and Marion to spend time together.Debra shook her head. "It's nothing serious. I'll be fine."Erica led her to sit down. Marion's meal was simple, while the others had more substantial, nutritious food.To relieve a hangover, they needed something rich and spicy. The soup with pepper was quite appetizing.Marion had just a couple of bites before he got up to clear his dishes. Seeing him grab his coat, Randy asked, "Where are you off to this early?""Out for a bit," Marion said, closing the door behind him.Randy mumbled, "Out to the supermarket?"Erica was frustrated. "What a blockhead!"Debra quietly ate her breakfast. About half an hour after Marion left, he returned with a large shopping bag.Randy stared a

Debra said, "You did pick some great fruit. You've done a better job than my housekeeper."Marion smiled. He wouldn't reveal that he had taste-tested each fruit, which was why it took him so long.A faint buzzing sound could be heard coming from the bedroom.Erica said, "Someone's phone is vibrating."Everyone exchanged glances, and Randy said, "I never keep my phone on vibrate."Marion stayed silent, and Erica pulled out her phone. "Mine's here."Debra suddenly remembered that she had set her phone to vibrate after hanging up on Joe yesterday.She quickly pushed back her chair and ran to the bedroom.There, her phone was vibrating on the bedside table. It was Joe calling.Debra answered, "Hello?"Relieved, Joe said, "Madam, you've finally answered."What's up?""Mr. Nichols was looking for you all night. He found out you left with Marion and got so mad that he hung up on me. He didn't go to the office today. Could you please call him and tell him about it? There are import

"Madam! You're finally back!"Debra rarely saw Sophie so emotional. Clearly, she had suffered a lot in the past few days."Sophie, is Juan home?""Yes, Mr. Nichols is home." Sophie hesitated and added, "But that vixen is here too."Mentioning Shelia made Sophie grit her teeth in hatred.Debra was surprised that Shelia could still stay there after Melody stepped in.Juan must really like Shelia, since he even went against his grandmother's wishes for her.Debra tried to use the fingerprint scanner at the front door, but it didn't work."Mr. Nichols changed the lock codes last night," Sophie explained.She entered the new code, allowing Debra to enter the house.Juan was with Shelia in the living room. Shelia was reading under Juan's patient guidance. They were acting like a couple in love.Sophie cleared her throat and announced in a stressed tone, "Sir, Mrs. Nichols is back."Juan glanced at Debra indifferently, as if she were a stranger."Who allowed you to enter my house
Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 94
Debra walked away without looking back. Shelia tugged on Juan's sleeve and said, "Those were just her angry words. Don't be upset."Juan quietly pulled his hand away.Shelia looked at her empty hand, stunned.Juan said flatly, "There are things for me to do at the company. You stay at home and study. Tell Sophie if you need anything.""Juan..." Shelia tried to stop Juan, but he had already left.Sophie, who was cleaning the floor, snorted at Shelia's actions. 'The couple has just had a spat, yet Shelia fancies herself the hostess of this house.'Shelia's pride was injured by Sophie's expression.Debra returned to the apartment opposite the school, where she and Erica had gone that morning. Erica was excited. "You proposed a divorce to Juan? Did he agree?"Debra recalled it and said, "He didn't say anything.""Silence is acquiescence. I'll have my lawyer draft the divorce papers right away. We'll take a chunk of his fortune and kick that scumbag to the curb," Erica said enthu

Seamar City's sanitation workers quickly mobilized, and the sewage area Debra had bought started its cleanup and renovation. In a few months, it would be completely transformed. To save time, Debra had already begun other projects.Following the municipal statement, many entrepreneurs started investing in her project, ensuring ample funds and even a surplus.In the evening, Debra hosted a dinner at home. Randy placed a folder on the table and whistled, "In half a month, you've secured billions in funding. This is incredible!"Marion chimed in, "With extra money, we can start other businesses before this project finishes."Debra nodded. "I know. That's why I diverted some funds for a small investment.""Small investment?" Marion raised an eyebrow. "You spent hundreds of millions. That's not small."Debra didn't expect Marion to find out so quickly.But she hadn't intended to hide it from him. Recently, with her busy dealing with Juan, Marion had been handling many matters, making

As soon as Debra got into the car, Joe pleaded, "Madam, please go easy on Mr. Nichols. He won't divorce you."Debra closed her eyes. "When did the old lady arrive?""This afternoon," Joe replied.It was just as she had guessed.Melody must have caused a scene. Once things calmed down, they called her back.Melody was always domineering and wouldn't tolerate any disobedience.By now, Shelia should have been sent away.The car stopped outside the Nichols family's house, and the gate was open. Debra walked in, seeing Sophie standing by respectfully. Melody was sitting on the sofa.Juan was kneeling on the floor, while Shelia was nowhere to be seen.Melody asked, "Is everything packed?""Yes, Mrs. Nichols Sr." Sophie pushed out a suitcase. "These are all Miss Miles's belongings."Melody turned to Joe and asked, "How much of this was bought with Juan's money?"Joe nervously stepped forward. "Miss Miles's living expenses have always been covered by Mr. Nichols, so..."Melody sne

The Nichols family had always upheld strict discipline, and Juan was raised by Melody. He didn't even dare to dodge now. Melody's strikes were fierce, and Juan's body was soon covered in bruises.Debra watched impassively as Juan gritted his teeth and silently endured it.Melody didn't stop until the cane broke. "Will you apologize now?"Juan remained silent.Debra knew his stubborn nature. If he was still holding out after being beaten this badly, it meant he had no intention of apologizing.She intervened, saying, "Grandma, please take it easy. I don't blame Juan. Let's call a doctor to check on him."Debra put on a gracious act, which cooled Melody's temper somewhat.Melody knew Juan's personality too well.Getting him to apologize was mission impossible.Melody had just put on a show to make Debra feel better.She patted Debra's hand and said, "Don't worry. I'll keep him in check, and I promise you, that woman will never set foot in our house again. You're the only host
Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right Chapter 98
"And don't try to threaten me with my time at Arcane Academy. Worst case, we get a divorce and both lose," Debra said, not worried Juan would tell Melody.On the contrary, he would keep this secret, at least until he'd extracted enough benefits from the Frazier family.Juan took a deep breath. "What do you want?""A deal. I'll speak well of you in front of Grandma, but you have to play along with my act.""Play along with your act?" Juan looked at her skeptically. "Is it that simple?""In front of others, you must act like the perfect husband. Accommodate me, back me up in front of my family, and stand up for me when needed. This is a small effort for you, and you won't lose anything," Debra said, cutting to the chase.She still needed Juan's help to deal with Ralph. However, since the recent scene caused by Melody, Juan had been giving her the cold shoulder.After a moment of thought, Juan agreed, "Alright, you have the deal.""Good." Debra set down her tablet, dusted off her

Everyone snapped to attention, flipping through the records. But the entries were pretty much the same—lists of expenses for rice, oil, flour, and other mundane supplies."Any maps or codes?" Randy scratched his head.Erica smacked the ledger. "Nothing. Just numbers and grocery lists."Debra traced a column of figures. "Right, numbers!"Erica was puzzled. "Numbers? How's that a treasure map?"Randy muttered, "Could it be that we've been thinking in the wrong direction? Maybe this isn't a treasure map after all?"Erica echoed, "Could it really be, like the elders said, just an account book that we've somehow turned into a myth?"As the group agonized, Drake finally snapped. "Debra, we need to talk.""Hm? About what?""Let's talk outside.""Can't say it here?""Outside." Drake stormed out. Debra sighed, turning to Marion. "Can I?"Erica and Randy glanced at him nervously.Marion nodded. "Go ahead."Erica and Randy gaped. 'No jealousy?' The second Debra left, Erica hiss

The dust on the lock was uneven. Clearly, someone had opened it recently.Marion pulled out an old key. "These locks are century-old designs. No key, no entry."He clicked it open, revealing rows of tablets. The hall was wider than that of the Fraziers.Debra hesitated. She'd never properly paid respects here since marrying Marion."Mom, Dad, Grandpa, and Grandma," Marion said softly, squeezing her hand. "I'm here with Debra."Debra tightened her grip. "We're here to visit you guys. Please watch over us. Help us find who's targeting the four families.""They will." Marion nodded. "Let's find the ledger."To her surprise, it sat under a pillar, barely hidden. "This isn't exactly hard to find.""Getting in is the challenge." Marion checked the ledger's age. "Let's head back. See if combining all four families' records reveals anything."If the ledgers combined meant a map, they'd be one step closer to the treasure.At Potter Mansion, Erica glanced at her watch and gaped. "Back

Drake's face darkened. "What nonsense are you spouting?""If you're not a spy, why stare at Mrs. Houston? I stare because I like her. You too?"Garland's words made Drake bark a laugh. "You like Debra?"Though shaky, Garland puffed his chest. "Yeah. I confessed to her right in front of Marion, and she let me look. You? Suspicious."Drake clenched his teeth. "Is Debra out of her mind?""See? You're the shady one." Garland jabbed a finger. "Admit it. You've got a crush.""Kale." Drake yanked open the locked door and shoved Garland out. "Get him out of my face.""Yes, boss.""Hey. Don't get mad just because I called you out. Drake, you're just..." "Gag him." When Kale returned, Drake paced angrily."This guy's identity is questionable. Should I...""He is not Fermin, but why is Debra keeping him around?""But Miss Eaton calls him brother. Maybe they're twins?""Twins?""Explains the mismatch. The other one is a genius, and this one a clueless idiot.""Clueless and blin

Before Garland could react, Drake had already shoved him into the room and pinned him against the door.Garland gulped nervously. 'What the hell? I'm not into guys.'"What's this about? This closeness is a bit much," Garland laughed awkwardly, trying to duck.But Drake flipped the lock with one hand and blocked his escape with the other.Garland's heart dropped. 'Gosh! Is Drake really gay?'"Back off! I'm straight.""What the hell are you babbling about?""You dragged me here alone. Isn't it obvious you want to..." Realization hit Drake. His face darkened, and he smacked Garland's head. "You think I'd hit on you? I'd need brain damage first.""Then why the sneaky moves? And why'd you hit me?" Garland hopped back, indignant."Cut the act. You're not Fermin." Drake got straight to the point.Garland stiffened but doubled down. "Of course, I am. We've fought before. You know my face.""I don't know what game you're playing, but Juan is in it with you," Drake hissed."Juan?

Edgar's face twisted like Randy had hit a nerve.Randy smirked, "Know your place, Edgar. We're being nice by chatting. Push us, and we'll demand repayment. You'd be jumping off a building by noon.""Why are you rapping so much?" Erica sulked.Randy mimed zipping his lips.Debra turned to Ivan, who'd been hovering near the kitchen. "Escort Mr. Odom to the guest room upstairs. The one at the end. He prefers privacy."As Ivan approached, the bruises on his neck from Debra's strike were still visible.Drake narrowed his eyes, figuring out her plan to isolate the two.Once they were gone, Debra tapped the table. "The ledger."Randy shrugged silently.Erica kicked his shin. "The ledger." "You told me to shut up.""Want another kick?""It's in your bag. You forgot."Erica blinked, then dug through her bag. "Got too intrigued by the story."She then placed the Osborne family's ledger on the table.Debra compared it to the Fraizer and Potter records. "Only the Houston family le

"What? You pulled all that heinous crap without even knowing the full story?" Randy nearly spilled his tea.Edgar shot back, "What heinous crap? Compared to you people, especially the one upstairs, I'm a saint."All eyes snapped to the second floor, where Drake leaned against the railing, glaring down.Randy cleared his throat. "Hey, redemption arcs exist. He's one of us now.""Who said I'm redeemed?" Drake strolled downstairs and flopped onto the couch. "I'm just crashing here while my wounds heal. Not joining your club.""Semantics." Randy waved a hand. "To outsiders, you're one of them. Your house has already burned down, and you have nowhere else to go."Kale, who also had been recovering at the Potter Mansion, rarely lumbered down with a glass of water. "Boss, want me to reclaim your company?"Randy choked on his tea. "Come on. It's not like snatching toys. That's an empire.""You talk too much." Drake rubbed his temples. "Marion, control your dog.""He's Erica's problem,

Edgar scoffed, "Who doesn't want more power? My family is influential, but it can't match the Big Four.""Fine," Debra pressed. "Say your family chased the treasure for those reasons. But your partner is after more than that, right? Why else set up this elaborate scheme?"Erica and Randy gaped, while Garland and Liza looked lost.The room fell silent. Those words hung heavy in the air.Edgar stared Debra down. "What nonsense are you spouting?""Think about it," Debra said. "Your base isn't even near Seamar City. How'd you learn about its secret? The Lowes knew too. Coincidence? No. Both your families struck a deal with him years ago. The treasure Intel? A carrot to dangle while he pulled your strings."Randy whistled, "Damn, Edgar. You've been holding out on us."Erica crossed her arms. "Spill it. Who's the puppet master?"Edgar's jaw tightened. "I have never met him, and you're right. He fed my family intel years back.""So, you started plotting over a decade ago?" Debra frow

Garland fidgeted, never expecting Bert to bring over Edgar.Back then, Juan had brought Edgar to him and asked him to interrogate Edgar. Garland had pretended to be Fermin. Now the charade was crumbling.Garland stammered, "What? It has nothing to do with me."Erica jabbed a finger at him. "You knew the secret all along and kept mum?"Randy side-eyed him. "Made us run in circles."Liza, on the other hand, was totally confused.Garland quickly turned to Debra for help. She figured that it must be Fermin.Unwilling to expose anything in front of Edgar, she chimed in, "He already told me, but I need your confirmation. Edgar, what is the secret?"Edgar sneered, "This is pathetic. The Four Great Families don't even know their own treasure."Erica's fists clenched. "Want me to rip that mouth of yours?"Randy tugged her back. "Chill. Beat him up after he talks."Erica held back her temper for the greater picture.Edgar revealed, "Think ordinary stuff lured everyone here? Centuries

Marion raised his hand. "Take them back."The Potter family guards moved forward. The Eaton family's bodyguards stood no chance. Their leader knew better than to fight. Debra had already spared them a bloodbath by handling this quietly.He clenched his teeth. "We'll consult Mr. Eaton Sr. If he insists, we'll come again."Marion shrugged. "Go ahead."He had accomplished his task. The rest wasn't his problem.Back at the Potter Mansion, Garland and Liza huddled together."I thought I'd be stuck eating fancy meals and shopping forever," Liza sobbed. "That life's soul-crushing."Garland sniffled, "Back to being CEO of that boring company? No thanks."Erica and Randy exchanged exhausted glances.Debra ignored the drama, focusing on the man tied up before her. "Mr. Odom, remember us?"Edgar remained silent, wrinkling his brow."We're old friends. Take a seat and relax," Debra added.He sneered, 'Sit? I'm trussed up like a turkey.'"Standing's fine too." Debra shrugged. "Same dif
