Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right

Robert didn't dodge, but the bullet didn't hit him.

It grazed past his ear, drawing blood.

But through that action, Robert figured out something. "You didn't tell her, did you? You're such a coward. If Debra found out that your love for her isn't what she imagines, would she still love you?"

With every word Robert uttered, Marion's gaze grew colder.

Unfazed, Robert pressed on, "I heard Mrs. Houston is picky when it comes to relationships. If she knew that the love between you two over the past year was nothing but a joke, do you think she'd kick you out of her world and hate you for the rest of her life?"

"You really have a death wish." Marion's face lost every trace of humor.

One of the men nearby quickly stepped forward, grabbing Marion's arm. "Sir, don't fall for it. He's trying to provoke you. If he dies, we'll never find out who's behind all this."

Marion's face was icy. Robert knew that was his true nature. He was born without emotions, sympathy, and empathy.

Medically speaking, people like him suffered from emotional detachment

syndrome, a condition where they lacked feelings and couldn't form emotional connections. They didn't have the capacity for love.

"Marion?" she called out.

There was no response.

She got out of bed and turned on the lamp, accidentally knocking over a glass on the table.

The glass tipped over, shattering on the floor. Bending down to pick up the pieces, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her finger. Looking down, she saw blood.

When she went to find a first-aid kit, she noticed the lamp in the living room was

on.

Descending the steps, she found the living room bathed in a dim, warm light, but no one was there.

She wondered if she hadn't turned it off earlier, but she decided not to dwell on it.

She remembered Barton mentioning that the first-aid kit was kept in the living

room.

"What are you looking for?" A voice suddenly sounded behind her.

Debra spun around and saw Andrew

"What's wrong?" Andrew asked, amused by her astonishment.

He was dressed in his usual white shirt, looking like he hadn't gone to bed yet.

"It's just rare to see you walking around," she replied.

Debra glanced at the coffee cup in his hand and asked, "You're still up at this hour?"

Andrew didn't answer, his keen eyes catching something. Her hand got The cut wasn't deep,↓

He opened a drawer of the cabinet and took out a bandage and some medicine.

"There's a first-aid kit in every room. Didn't Barton tell you?"

"I don't really remember things like that."

Usually, Marion took care of such details for her.noveldrama
