Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1305

Before Garland could voice the question in his mind, heavy footsteps echoed from outside the door.

Moments later, Marion came in. His clothes were covered in dirt, and his face was etched with exhaustion.

Debra rushed over, her concern evident. "What happened?"

"It's nothing," Marion replied, shaking his head.

"Nothing?" Randy interjected. "Look at yourself. And you've been out of contact all night."

Marion looked up and saw Barton coming down the stairs. "I got ambushed on my way back from the office."

"It must have taken quite a few people to stall you," Randy mused.

Marion's gaze remained fixed on Barton. "Four vans. About 100 men."

Randy gasped, "Crazy! Luckily, you managed to fight your way out of that."

Marion didn't respond, but Debra frowned. "They came after us not long ago, and the second wave came so fast. How did you get out of there?"

She wasn't surprised that Marion could handle a dozen people, but 100? That seemed impossible.

"I'm tired," Marion said quietly. "I'll explain upstairs."

"I'll help you up," Debra said, supporting him as they headed to the second floor.

"Hey, we'd like to hear it too," Randy called after them.
