Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1453

When Debra and Michael returned to the room, everyone was chatting happily around the table.

Marion was the quiet type, not really engaging in the conversation. He would only speak up occasionally.

When Debra came back, he relaxed and smiled.

Debra didn't smile back this time. She just walked over and sat down beside him.

Marion had peeled shrimp for her because she never liked to eat anything with shells.

She casually picked up one and popped it in her mouth. Soon, the next one was ready.

"What's wrong?" he asked, looking up. "Don't you like the food today?"

"Juan called me," Debra said quietly.

"I know."

"Aren't you going to ask what he said?"

"Other than congratulating you on being discharged, I can't think of anything else."

His tone was thick with jealousy. In the past, Debra would've laughed and reassured him that she only loved him. But now, a million questions flooded her mind.

When Marion first started pursuing her, he didn't message her that often. He would ghost her occasionally. It hadn't bothered her back then, since their bond was still weak.

She couldn't comprehend it back then or understand why Andrew had suddenly brought that up.

"Debra?" Marion called out.

She snapped out of it and saw another shrimp on her plate.

Theda watched their interaction, then put down her fork and knife.

"It's getting late. We should head back now," she said.

Robert helped grab her bag.
