Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1940

Randy stuck close to Erica, always trailing her.

They ate and sparred together. He'd hide behind her, acting weak, so she'd step in to protect him.

Each time Erica shielded him, she would frown. "Why are you so weak? Don't call yourself a man."

Randy would grin. "I'm just too lazy to deal with them. They wouldn't stand a chance otherwise."

In high school, Erica opened up. She loved standing up for the underdog and taking down bullies.

Her bold, confident vibe made her a hero among the girls. Guys, though, were intimidated and kept their distance.

Randy was the only guy stuck by her, like a loyal sidekick.

It was a bit embarrassing, but chasing the girl he liked was worth it.

Erica treated him like a little brother, always protecting him. But he didn't want to be her brother.

Whenever he saw her chummy with other guys, he wanted to punch them.

They didn't get Erica. They didn't know what she liked. They just wanted the connections of her family and the Houston family.

Randy remembered her first boyfriend. It was a kid from a rich family.

To Erica, dating was just a way to kill time. That guy was just a fling.

She needed his family's influence to take down her dad. But the guy was a jerk, messing around behind her back.
