Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 900

Juan was surprised by how perceptive Bert was.

Sensing his reluctance to talk, Bert added, "If you don't speak up, you can leave. I'll handle the affairs myself. If you reveal our secrets, my family will be ruined, but your family won't fare any better."

Juan frowned as Bert stepped closer. "Young man, I'm giving you a chance here. I'm helping you, not the other way around."

Realizing Bert was serious, Juan finally spoke. "I want to investigate the secrets of Seamar City and the Four Great Families as well as the truth behind the car accident that killed Debra's parents."

Bert's smile vanished instantly.

Juan continued, "I believe you also want to know these things. Fermin's death was not an accident."

Garland frowned because Bert and he were the only ones who knew the truth.

He stood up and asked, "You know? How do you know?"

"That's not important," Juan replied. "I have my ways."

Garland wanted to say more, but Bert cut in, "Alright. I agree to give you an identity to aid your investigation. Since you know Fermin's death wasn't an accident, you must know as much as I do. Is it Andrew Potter who told you about this?"

Juan was impressed that Bert had guessed correctly but didn't confirm it. "That's not important. What matters is that we have a common enemy to fight. You went as far as marrying off Liza to control the Lowe family, which means you're also after the power that once controlled them."

It turned out that the major families in Seamar City were all Bert's acquaintances. Bert was kind toward them but harsh to him.

At his age, he was still being assigned a mentor. Garland stood up and walked over to Juan.

"If you're going to be my mentor, you'd better be prepared."

"Being my student will be harder than you think. You're the one who should get prepared."

With that, Juan turned and left the Eaton Mansion.
