Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1564

"Miss Trennery, please keep your distance from me. Don't do anything that might make my wife misunderstand," Marion said.

"Why? Why are you listening to her? It's wrong to always give in to her like this," Lexie countered, pointing at Debra. "This woman keeps saying you shouldn't be in touch with me, but everyone here knows better. She's been fooling around these past few days. She's not faithful to your marriage, and you should have divorced her."

She stood on the high ground of morality, eager to expose Debra's hypocrisy.

Debra only found it laughable. "That's right. We should get a divorce, but Marion doesn't agree. Try convincing him."

Lexie quickly came over to help Marion out of the fountain. However, he didn't appreciate it and wouldn't even let her touch his clothes.

Lexie was stunned that someone like Marion chose to be humiliated like that.

"Mr. Houston, I've always liked you," she confessed earnestly. "If you accept me, I'll do anything for you."

Debra's smirk only deepened. "Mr. Trennery, you made a mistake. Why would I argue with a young girl like Miss Trennery? I'm just punishing my husband, which is fair and reasonable. Besides, he doesn't like her. Yet she confessed her love right in front of me and tried to wreck my marriage. I've been waiting for you to set her straight."

Grover blushed with embracement. "Why are you so mean? Lexie just..."

"I know," Debra interrupted him, "she admires Marion, right? She was just trying to convince Marion to divorce me. You heard that too, right?"
