Debra furrowed her brow. "You know Edgar killed Kolton, yet you''re still going to protect him?" Chace sighed, "I''m protecting Kolton''s legacy. I can''t just stand by and watch it crumble."


    He knew very well that if he helped Debra, the Odom family would be pushed to the brink.


    Debra chuckled, "Who said Kolton''s legacy would crumble?"


    Chace scoffed, "You''ve spent all this time nning, haven''t you? All to bring down Edgar and wipe out the Odom family."


    "You''re half right."


    "What do you mean?"


    "I do want to bring Edgar down, but that doesn''t mean I want to destroy the Odom family."


    Chace was surprised. Debra had all but won, and even if heid out all the risks to Edgar, thetter wouldn''t listen.


    Debra had the power to crush the Odom family''s financial backing with a singlemand. Bankruptcy was just a matter of time now.This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    "I have my principles. My beef is with Edgar. All of this is just to take him down. I have no intention of wiping out the Odom Group."


    "Who would believe that? With everything in ce, are you just going to give up all the benefits?" Chace said.


    "Who said I was giving up?"


    "I knew you had no good intentions."


    "Don''t jump to conclusions. Hear me out first. You''re worried that once Edgar falls, the Odom family will be left with no one to inherit its assets, right? The Odom Group will falkinto chaos, and I''ll swoop in and take over, right?"


    "Obviously."


    "Well, let me tell you this. Once Edgar is out of the picture, I won''t acquire the Odom Group outright. But I will buy its shares for ten billion dors." "Ten billion?"


    "If I''m not mistaken, the Odom


    Group is short by about that much. When Edgar falls, my investment will the


    Kamily afloat, allowing them


    over."


    "But if Edgar is gone, won''t thepany fall into someone else''s hands?"


    "Edgar is not the only heir. Oscar is one too."


    "Oscar? He''s just an idol trainee who doesn''t know the first thing about finance. How could he run apany?"


    "I wouldn''t say that. Oscar was groomed by his mother to take on the Odom name. She envied Edgar so she gave her son a simr name. Before he debuted, Oscar majored in finance. Plus, ever since he joined the McKinney Group, I''ve had people tutoring him privately."


    "So, you''ve been nning this all along?"


    "Well, I''veid everything out for you. Are you still going to side with Edgar?"
