Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 818

Outside the villa, Erica strode toward her car. She paused, her sharp gaze flicking to the side.

"Randy. Stop hiding and get over here."

From the shadows, Randy sheepishly emerged, rubbing the back of his neck. "Erica..."

She grunted, "Why were you skulking around back there?"

Randy offered a lopsided grin. "I'm a guy. It didn't feel right to go in there and scare off two women like that. But you were amazing. That roar of yours could be heard from outside."

Erica rolled her eyes. "You're useless."

"Yes, I am," Randy laughed.

She waved him off. "Where's Debra? She's back safe now, right? You promised you'd take me to see her. Hurry up."

"We'll go tomorrow," Randy replied mysteriously.

"Why?" Erica asked suspiciously.

Randy explained, "You know, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Why interrupt their time together? We'd just be third wheels."

Realization dawned on Erica. "What about Marion? Is he at the Potter Mansion?"

Randy sighed. "Don't even remind me. He flew straight there the moment he touched down. He didn't even check on me."

For days, he had been running himself ragged, managing affairs for the Houston family, the McKinney Group, and his own business, on top of keeping tabs on Orkgate.
