Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1143

Kale made way for her, and the guards pushed open the door.

The room was empty, and only the sound of water running came from the bathroom.

Kale got out and closed the door behind him. Debra wanted to leave, but two steaming cups of tea on the table caught her attention. It meant someone else had just been there.

The room was thick with the smell of tobacco. It was Drake's signature cigar, but the other ashtray was clean, meaning the other person didn't smoke.

She wondered who it could be when the bathroom door suddenly swung open.

Drake appeared, his neck draped in a towel. A bathrobe hung loosely over his frame.

Debra gave him a once-over instead of looking away.

Having planned to intimidate her, Drake now shifted under her gaze. Any other woman would have shyly turned away.

He remembered the last time he had been in the shower. She had walked in and stared at him the same way.

This woman had no sense of modesty whatsoever.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a man before?" he grumbled.

Debra didn't flinch. "You're dressed. What's there to see? You have a chest, but if it's just a few pounds of muscle."

Drake was speechless. Her words were crude, but she wasn't wrong.

A sneer tugged at her mouth. "It's just a hypothesis. I was following you out of curiosity. But now, I can't rule out this possibility. After all, Marion and you have never gotten along, and you used to hate me. What if..."

"What? No. I'm only here to meet..." Drake blurted, but a click from the door interrupted him.

Kale entered the room and said, "Boss, it's getting late. Shouldn't we be heading back?"

He had heard the heated exchange from outside, knowing Debra was trying to obtain information.

Drake calmed down, considering the situation. 'Maybe because I've just gotten out of a shower, my mind isn't working straight. I almost fell for her crude trick.'

He chuckled darkly, "You want to provoke me into revealing who I met? Nice try."
