Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 820

The car accident staged by Yvonne had harmed Debra badly. As Marion helped her into the bath, his eyes darkened, taking in the bruises and cuts that painted her skin.

Debra cupped his face. "What's that look? Feeling sorry for me?"

Marion's anger dissipated like smoke in the wind. He gently flicked her forehead. "I won't get you into trouble ever again."

"This was a special case," Debra replied, rubbing her forehead. "I promise it won't happen again."

She hadn't expected Yvonne to be so unhinged. But ironically, it was thanks to Yvonne that she had gained even more of Drake's trust.

She pinched his serious face. "You have no idea how much valuable information I got from this close call."

"Should I be thrilled about that?"

"Of course. I struck gold."

Marion flicked her forehead again, a little harder this time. "If you weren't already banged up, I'd bend you over my knee."

Debra pouted. "You'd hit a wounded woman?"

Marion's resolve crumbled. He sighed, his voice softening. "How could I ever lay a hand on you? If anything, I should be kicking myself. If I'd been more on the ball, you wouldn't have been in harm's way."

Debra covered his mouth. "Don't beat yourself up."

Marion's eyes softened as he held her hand. "Alright, I won't say it again."

A knock echoed through the door. Barton's voice filtered in. "Mr. Andrew Potter is waiting in the study. He'd like to know when you'll be joining him."
