Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1283

After hearing Drake's recount of his experiences in Orkgate, Debra frowned and said, "Great wisdom behind a dumb appearance, right?"

"Come on. Were you even listening to me? And do I look dumb to you?" Drake huffed.

"That was a compliment."

"Ugh."

"Alright. Leave this newcomer to us. You just focus on recovering. Once you're better, we'll need you to take back the Lowe Group."

Debra stood up, ready to leave.

"Debra."

"Anything else?"

"If you must suspect someone, then suspect Juan."

"Juan?"

Debra was surprised at first and then remembered a deal Drake had once made with Juan.

Juan had stepped in, claiming to collaborate with the Lowe Group, but that was a one-time thing.

"Didn't you work with him?"

"Not me. It was a deal between the Lowe Group and him. On the night he saved you, he came to me with a proposal."

"What did he promise you?"

When she grew older, she met Juan again and could not hide her feelings.

She was full of hope at first and disillusioned in the end. It had taken the entire time of her last time to see the truth.

When she thought she had finally understood him, he was hidden more beneath the surface.

"Could it really be him?" she muttered to herself.

There was no answer.

She looked up, her gaze landing on a swing ahead. For some reason, the sight made her heart skip.

She walked over and pushed the swing. Something about it felt so familiar.
