Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1033

"Says who? Marion can do it," Debra retorted.

Drake sneered at her proud expression. "You'd let him take the risk?"

"No. You're the best candidate."

Drake felt bitter. "When would you get good things for me?"

"This is a good thing. I've helped find a..." She paused, noticing his cold gaze. "A clue to who's been framing you."

Drake scoffed, "Weren't you so capable before? In the end, you've only found a tiny clue."

"Well, I'm better than someone who hasn't found anything."

"What the..."

"Alright, I've found a lead for you. You just need to catch and interrogate them. Marion can't handle such concrete work where you excel in."

Drake nodded reluctantly. "But I have a condition."

"Go ahead."

"If the police catch me again at the docks, I'll be kissing Seamar City goodbye. Forget the bet and consider me lost. I can afford ten million dollars."

"Leave as you like. It's your reputation on the line, not mine," Debra said, waving to Liza. "Miss Eaton, let's go."

Liza stuck her tongue out at Drake, unwilling to stay there for another second.
