Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1487

Once Drake was taken away, Marion asked, "You really figured it out?"

"Nope. I was bluffing." Debra shook her head. "Drake hid it so well that even the Illuminati couldn't find it. That's why they grabbed him. They had no other choice. Honestly, the safest thing for us is not to know where it is. Otherwise, we might be next on their hit list."

"That's why he wouldn't talk."

"I know. He's afraid that if we find out, the Illuminati will come after us, too."

"But you told him you figured it out."

"I was just messing with him. If I could do that, that'd mean I'm smarter than the entire Illuminati."

"You're smarter."

Marion reached out and ruffled her hair.

Debra got serious. "Now we can't go back to Seamar City yet. If the Illuminati has people here, they must have a base there too. Instead, we should dig a little deeper. Maybe their leader is hiding out here in Orkgate."

"Right." Marion nodded.

Drake was still pissed at Debra. "Oh, so now you're just doing whatever she says?"
