Debra was surprised by Oscar''s words.


    His ears were tinged with red, a sign of his nervousness. It was clear that he was not ustomed to showing concern for others. "Are you concerned about me?"


    "Looks like you''re fine. I''ll head off."Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org.


    "Wait."


    "Anything else?" Oscar stopped in his tracks.


    "This is a good chance. Have all the trainees terminate their contracts," she said, holding out a bundle towards him.


    Oscar''s eyes widened as he took the bundle and realized it contained twenty bank cards.


    "What''s wrong?"


    "Is the money enough?"


    "It''s just right. Have them sign the termination papers, and I''ll take care of the rest."


    "Alright."


    Oscar left, and Debra smiled.


    Oscar''s behavior reminded her of the first time she met Michael. But unlike Michael, who was always full of schemes, Oscar was a clear-eyed college student, straightforward and honest. Meanwhile, Henry was in a state of panic. In front of him were the termination contracts from all the male trainees.


    "Mr. Cameron, we have more terminationsing in."


    His secretary handed him another stack of contracts. This time, the female trainees wanted to terminate their contracts.


    Henry was distressed. "Everyone''s leaving? What''s going on? Where''s Hannah?"


    He had thought that the high termination fees would deter the trainees, but they seemed determined, all opting to terminate their contracts today.


    They had contracts with the production team for recording shows, and now with both male and female trainees leaving, they could not find recements. Failure to do so would mean substantialpensation to the production team.


    Hannah knocked on the door and came in.


    Henry felt a glimmer of hope and rushed over. "Hannah, go check what''s happening with the female trainees. They''re all leaving. This..."


    Hannah pulled out a document and


    said calmly, ording to Mr.


    Andrew Potter, the program is on


    hold. The breach penalties will be


    yel


    deducted from the previous investments. Also, he wants all


    those bank cards."


    Henry''s face paled even further. "But Mr. Nichols withdrew his investment yesterday. Now only Mr. Odom''s investment remains."


    "Don''t you understand Mr. Andrew Potter''s instructions?"


    Henry was left speechless. Hannah took all the bank cards and said, "Have the contracts processed by the legal team as soon as possible. If they want to leave, let them." With that, she turned and left the room.


    As evening approached, Hannah


    drove Debra to the Potter Mansion. It had been a while since Debra had seen Andrew. When she entered the study she saw dozens of bank cards neatly arranged on the desk.


    Andrew picked up a card casually. "Ms. Frazier, is it a bit greedy to use so many empty cards to take away all my trainees?"


    Debra met his gaze, her expression


    earnest. "It''s not greed. The


    McKinney Group and the Potter Group are connected. If they go to the McKinney Group, the money eventually ends up in your pocket. It''s just a sleight of hand."
