Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 1934

In the photo, Debra's smile was as bright as ever, while Jordan stood awkwardly on the side, his eyes drifting toward her.

He didn't hate Debra. He might even like her. But that liking was starting to mess with his head.

"Why's it gotta be you?" he muttered.

He liked Debra, but he loved Andrew more.

Jordan set the photo down and headed out.

Debra was outside, her hand raised to knock.

"Ready to eat? I was just coming to get you," she said.

It was her way of making nice after a fight, waiting for him to cool off before teasing him again, and that was what he liked about her.

"Not eating. You go ahead," Jordan said, brushing past her.

He knew better than anyone that he wasn't as important to Debra as Andrew was. To her, he was just family, not someone she'd ever like that way.

Jordan hesitated but made his way to Andrew's study. The door was closed. He paused, then pushed it open.

Andrew was waiting, like he'd known Jordan would show up.

After a moment of silence, Jordan spoke. "I like Debra."

"And?" Andrew asked with a knowing smile. "You see, if you want something, you fight for it. You don't just give up like this. But I think you've figured out what you want."

Jordan nodded. "I like her, but she just sees me as family. And to me, you're the most important person in the world."

Andrew didn't say anything else, just shared a smile with Jordan.
