Chapter 1123
“What do you mean my chef can’t make fish soup?” Drake was confused. noveldrama
Then he realized that Kale must be behind this. His face darkened as he called out, “Kale, come in.” Kale knew he couldn’t keep this a secret for long, but he hadn’t expected it to be exposed so quickly.
With his head down, he entered the room. “Boss.”
“What’s going on with this fish soup?” Drake demanded.
“I saw how you craved the soup, so I asked Mrs. Houston to make it.”
“And you used my name?”
“Yes.”
Drake wanted to curse, but with Debra still around, he held back.
“Get out.”
Kale turned to leave when Drake called out again, “You too.”
Debra was speechless, but she hadn’t planned to stay anyway.
Watching her go, Drake felt a heaviness in his chest. Kale, already at the door, tried to reason, “Boss, actually…”
“Shut
up and
get out!”
Kale quietly closed the study door behind him.
Suddenly, an angry voice rang out. “Where is he? Drake, show yourself!”
Liza stormed in, followed by Garland, who cautiously glanced back every few steps.
Liza’s shouting freaked him out, and he hurriedly covered her mouth. “For heaven’s sake, keep it down.
This was Drake’s territory. If he got angry, they could be in serious trouble.
Liza pushed his hand away. “What are you doing? If we don’t make some noise, how will Drake come out?”
Before Garland could respond, Drake appeared on the second floor, his gaze cold and piercing.
He sensed trouble and demanded, “What brings you two here?”
Garland was frightened, but Liza raised her chin. “Where are you hiding Debra and Marion? Hand them over!”
Garland gasped, regretting ever coming with her. If they died here, there would be no one to claim their bodies.
“They are here,” Drake admitted, “but they came of their own will. If you want them to leave with you,
you’ll have to convince them first.”
“Free will?” Liza was taken aback.
She had assumed they were being held against their will.

“Um, I don’t think Debra and Marion were forced,” Garland interjected nervously. “Maybe we made a mistake. You see, we’ve been in Orkgate for so long. Even Randy and Erica have returned to Seamar City. Maybe it’s time for us to go too.”
What do you think?
