“Have you ever stopped to think about what would happen if you left evidence behind? You promised me you wouldn’t take these risks again,” Debra said.

Today, Marion had shown up with a motley crew of hardened men she’d never seen before.
But she knew from her past life that Marion had an ulterior motive for coming to Seamar City. His sights were set on Juan, the biggest obstacle standing between him and total control of the city.
She just hadn’t expected so many twists and turns this time around, but Marion’s goal remained steadfast, and his forces were more formidable than ever.
If any of these men were caught, Marion could be doomed. She couldn’t bear the thought.
She looked at Marion, waiting for an explanation, but he remained silent as a statue.
“You have other business in Seamar City, don’t you?” she pressed.
Marion finally nodded. “Yes.”
Debra’s voice grew colder, her frustration bubbling to the surface.
“You’ve already conquered overseas, yet you’re still here, vying for Seamar City. Edgar controls everything in Booton, but he’s been eyeing Seamar City for years. What’s so special about this place? Is it about wealth or status?” NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
Marion stayed silent. Debra sighed, her voice tinged with resignation.
“Fine. If you won’t tell me, I won’t pry. I don’t have ambitions to rule Seamar City. I just want to keep my family safe and preserve my father’s legacy.” Her voice grew firmer, her resolve unshakable. “But there are too many unknown dangers surrounding you. I think it’s time we end this.”

Debra shook her head. “I’ve given you enough time. You promised me a stable future, remember? You said you’d cut ties with your past, but you broke that promise.”
Having lived a second life, she knew what she wanted. It was something Marion couldn’t provide.
She stepped into the elevator, her heart heavy with the weight of her decision. Just then, her phone rang. An unknown number flashed on the screen. She hesitated before answering, only to hear Andrew’s voice
on the other end.
“When you exit the hospital, look to your left.”
Confused, she stepped out of the elevator and made her way to the hospital entrance. True enough, a sleek black Maybach was parked to her left, the rear window rolling down to reveal Andrew’s pale face.
“Mr. Andrew Potter, how many phone numbers do you have?”
She’d lost count of how many she’d saved in her contacts. Andrew smiled faintly, his voice as gentle and refined as ever.
“Get in.”
She took a deep breath and slid into the backseat. The late–night streets were quiet.
She looked out the window and said, “Just drop me off at the apartment.”
“I never said I was taking you home.”
“What?”
Debra turned to him, her eyes wide with realization. She’d gotten into the car without asking any questions, and now she was at Andrew’s mercy.
Andrew instructed the driver, “David, pull over.”
“Yes, sir.”
The car glided to a stop at the side of the road. The night wind was chilly, and Debra shivered as she stepped out of the car.
Andrew took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.
“Come with me.”
