Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1141

Faced with the threat, Juan remained composed. "I didn't tamper with the car."

Drake was unimpressed. "Then how did you know this?"

"I saw it," Juan replied.

"You expect me to believe that?" Drake scoffed. "Debra is your ex-wife. You're telling me you just stood by when someone tampered with her car?"

Juan explained, "I couldn't show up in front of her. I could only give her a hint."

Drake was swayed, and he continued, "I could have just left, but I chose to warn her. You can ask her for confirmation. If she hadn't seen me, she wouldn't have checked the car."

Drake paused. "Fine, let's say you're telling the truth. But I didn't invite you to Orkgate. You're not the CEO of the Nichols Group anymore, which means you can no longer fulfill what you promised me. Our deal is off the table. What are you doing here now on my turf?"

Back when Juan rescued Debra, Drake could have finished him off. He hadn't done so only because Juan had proposed working with him to deal with Marion. The stake was the shares of the Nichols Group, but now the shares had ended up in the hands of the Buchan family.

"I came here to discuss something with you."

"Oh really? And what makes you think you have any leverage left?"

"Tonight, Theda transferred the shares to Debra. If you want them, now's your chance."

Drake's eyebrows shot up. "What do you mean?"

Juan replied coolly, "You can have those shares as long as you tear up the stock transfer agreement Debra has."
