Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 611

The bodyguards wisely retreated, seeing Juan's cold expression.

Debra finally relaxed. Juan stepped closer, his hand brushing lightly against her forehead.

"You're burning up. What happened?"

"Why don't you ask your dear aunt? She stirred up quite the storm here."

The house was in disarray, and Debra felt helpless about the disturbance.

"I'll take care of it."

"I know. I wasn't planning to get involved."

She tried to stand up, but the moment she rose, a wave of dizziness hit her.

In that haze, she thought she heard someone calling out to her. Juan rushed forward and caught her just before she collapsed, but the next second, she was lifted into another set of arms.

"No need to trouble yourself, Mr. Nichols. I've got a girlfriend."

Marion's voice was steady as he cradled Debra close, not even sparing Juan a glance.

"Stop!"

Juan blocked Marion's path. His gaze lingered on the unconscious Debra, now safely held by Marion.

With a mocking smile, he said, "Your girlfriend? Is this how you protect her? By letting her get bullied while you stand by and do nothing?"

"She'll never be bullied by anyone," Marion retorted. "And if I'm not mistaken, the ones causing her trouble were from your family."

Juan clenched his jaw, left with nothing to say.
