Debra paused for a moment before opening the door.
Inside, Drake was still lying on the bed, but his complexion had improved a lot.
In black pajamas, he threw a dart at the TV. The screen shattered beyond repair.
"Looks like someone's in a bad mood," Debra said.
Drake glanced at her and remained unhappy.
"Was faking my critical illness Marion's idea?"
"Yes."
"Have you caught the person behind it?"
"Not yet."
"My company was taken. It was all Marion's fault."
