Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1157

With his guilt over Marion's injury, Drake would ensure Debra's safety.

Marion smiled, "Yeah. You're right."

Debra nestled against his chest. "When do you think we'll live a peaceful life?"

Every day was a constant battle. It was exhausting. She could only find a moment of peace when she was with Marion.

She added, "I've been thinking a lot lately. If we were just ordinary kids, with our parents still around, friends by our side, and no backstabbing or life-and-death struggles, life would be so much easier."

Marion reassured her, "Trust me, it won't be far ahead."

Debra gave a small smile. "But deep down, you know as well as I do. If the mastermind stays hidden in the shadows, we'll never get close enough to them. Even if we don't provoke him, they'll come after us."

Her voice dropped lower. "And when that happens, none of us—Randy, Erica, Andrew, and Drake—will come out unscathed."

Clearly, whoever was behind all this was powerful. They were the cause of Marion's and her parents' deaths. Their goal was to get the ultimate treasure in Seamar City.

Debra didn't get it. 'How much money is enough? What makes the treasure so tempting? They're willing to sacrifice so many lives just to claim it.'

Marion turned serious. "We must avenge our parents. Even if we let it go, they will come after us."
