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

Juan glanced at the people standing behind Debra, realizing she had secured control over the Potter and Houston families.

What was at stake there wasn't just connections. It was the balance of power in Seamar City.

The united force of the Four Great Families was a formidable entity, and with Fermin's involvement, the situation had become even more precarious.

Juan could only mutter, "Withdraw."noveldrama

Joe hesitated for a moment before raising his hand to signal the retreat.

Before leaving, Juan warned Debra, "You may win today, but this isn't over."

Debra's response was equally cold. "Don't worry. We'll fight this to the end until one side can no longer stand."

With his ally gone, Jordan signaled for his men to retreat as well.

Soon, the hall was empty except for Debra's people. The guards quickly brought Liza out.

"Told you my brother would come to save me," Liza snorted, striding proudly toward Debra.

But as she scanned the room, Garland was nowhere to be seen.

"Where's my brother?" she asked.

Everyone began to glance around, puzzled about the situation. Fermin had been there just moments ago.

Debra recalled the whole event and felt something was amiss. Then her gaze fell on Drake, who was casually slipping the emblem back into his pocket.

She said, "It was Drake who saved you."

"Who?" Liza glanced at Drake. "Him?"

"Yes," Debra confirmed smoothly.

Drake never intended to take all the credit. "Debra..."

Debra interrupted, "He put aside past grievances and came to your rescue despite his injury. After you insulted him earlier, don't you think an

apology is in order? I'm suren &

swnel.n

decent lady like you knows what to say."

Liza recalled what Debra had told her the other day.

To be honest, she didn't hate him that much. Her only grudge came from his engagement to Cathryn

who had betrayed her.

She pressed her lips together and muttered, "Thank you. And I'm sorry. I won't call you a bad guy anymore."

"Am I supposed to care?" Drake scoffed.

If it weren't for Debra's request, he wouldn't have come.

Liza puffed up her cheeks and turned her head away.

If it weren't for Debra, she wouldn't have apologized to Drake in the first place.

"Wait a minute, weren't you critically ill? This is ridiculous," Randy muttered, stepping forward to examine Drake.

Drake knocked off his hand. "Don't touch me."

"What the hell?" Randy rolled up his sleeves.

"Not here," Erica interjected. "Has anyone found Fermin?"

He seemed to have vanished into thin air. It was eerily strange.

At the Potter Mansion, Barton helped Andrew into a wheelchair.

He reported, "Sir, everything is proceeding smoothly. Mrs. Houston is as clever, as ever. Using your sear at this critical moment was a masterstroke Not only did sho

secure Miss Eaton's rescue, but she also managed to sow discord

between the Eaton family and K. And

luring out Fermin was an unexpected bonus. After this, Mr. Jordan Potter must have gained K's trust."
