Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 860

"He injected me with a diluted version?" Debra was surprised.

She hadn't expected Drake to still have a conscience. But then, another question struck her. "How do you know all this?"

Andrew explained, "Marion did a lot for the Bernard family, who had their hands in both legal and illegal businesses. At that lawless place, Marion suffered a lot and even got hooked on drugs. Doctors thought he was a lost cause, but he pulled through with sheer willpower and kicked the habit in a year."

"How could it be? I thought Mr. Bernard was kind to him," Debra said, confused.

"Kindness? For people like us, there's no such thing," Andrew said. "Shawn saw potential in Marion and kept him close. Marion had to take extreme measures to gain his trust. You know, among the four families, the Houston family is the most capable. Marion ending up overseas wasn't an accident; it was part of Caleb's long-term plan. You were probably too young to know, but Marion was the most outstanding and mature among us. When his family targeted the Bernard family, Marion volunteered to go undercover. It takes incredible willpower to do that at such a young age."

Debra fell silent, absorbing the information. In her past life, she didn't know much about Marion, only that he had returned from overseas and quickly became a rival to Juan.

With her rebirth, things in Seamar City had changed drastically. In less than two years, the McKinney Group had risen to challenge the Nichols Group.

If she hadn't bought that land at the auction, the situation might have been different. Marion and Juan were destined to clash, but her involvement had altered the course of events.
