Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1540

It was late into the night when Debra got off the plane.

Jordan's car was already parked by the airport. It felt empty with few passengers at that hour.

She spotted him at a glance and threw a package at him. He tossed his cigarette aside and caught the package.

Debra said, "Kid, you've learned to smoke now?"

Jordan protested, "We are the same age. Don't talk like a senior."

"Force of habit," Debra smiled. "I thought you were still that red-haired guy who'd always stick up for me back in school. But just two years later, you've grown up."

"Debra."

"Sorry. It's kind of ingrained."

Having lived through a life, she couldn't help but speak to him like an elder.

"Aren't you going to explain it?"

"There's nothing to explain. I just came back alone."

"Is that all you're going to say?"

Together, they walked out of the airport, and he opened the car door for her.

Jordan followed her to get into the car, and she finally said, "The news is all true."

Jordan froze. "A nightclub model? Seriously? Even if Marion lied to you, you shouldn't..."

"He won't. I've already told him that I need time and space."

"Which means you're waiting for his explanation."

"What is there to explain? The truth is right in front of us."

Debra leaned against the car window. Snow had started falling outside.

"For a couple, lies and deceit are unforgivable. Honestly, I don't care about anything else. As long as he doesn't cross the line, I won't worry about it. But this thing? Who could just move on from it that easily?"

Jordan glanced at her, taking in her exhaustion. "Marion loves you. No one in this world loves you more than he does."

Debra didn't respond.
