Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 775

"Mr. Lowe, calm down and think about it. Why would I drug you? And where would I even get something like that?" Debra reasoned. "Today, you dragged me to buy a piano and new clothes right after I woke up. I barely had time to think before I ended up in that lounge, unconscious. Don't you think it's a bit ridiculous to suspect me?"

His earlier rage had clouded his judgment, but now, Debra's logic gave him a pause.

"Mr. Lowe," she added, "I understand you're upset, but you should calm down and think about everything you've eaten or drunk today."

She knew exactly what she was doing, planting seeds of doubt in his mind. Drake's face darkened as he remembered the tea from the lounge.

"Kale," Drake called sharply. "Give that woman a good beating."

"Yes, boss." Kale disappeared instantly, leaving Debra and Drake alone.

Debra got to her feet. "Well then, I'll take my leave."

"Wait," Drake's voice stopped her cold. "Who gave you permission to come to the third floor?"

Debra's pulse quickened, but she masked her fear with an air of nonchalance. "Someone brought me up here. I was curious, so I followed. How was I supposed to know the third floor was..."

She trailed off, deliberately feigning reluctance. Drake sneered, "Didn't you once say you wanted to stay here and make money? What, are you scared now?"
