Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1225

Robert didn't dodge, but the bullet didn't hit him.

It grazed past his ear, drawing blood.

But through that action, Robert figured out something. "You didn't tell her, did you? You're such a coward. If Debra found out that your love for her isn't what she imagines, would she still love you?"

With every word Robert uttered, Marion's gaze grew colder.

Unfazed, Robert pressed on, "I heard Mrs. Houston is picky when it comes to relationships. If she knew that the love between you two over the past year was nothing but a joke, do you think she'd kick you out of her world and hate you for the rest of her life?"

"You really have a death wish." Marion's face lost every trace of humor.

One of the men nearby quickly stepped forward, grabbing Marion's arm. "Sir, don't fall for it. He's trying to provoke you. If he dies, we'll never find out who's behind all this."

Marion's face was icy. Robert knew that was his true nature. He was born without emotions, sympathy, and empathy.

The glass tipped over, shattering on the floor. Bending down to pick up the pieces, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her finger. Looking down, she saw blood.
