At the Odom family’s villa, a video interview with Oscar played on the large computer screen.
In just half a month, Oscar had managed to secure the best resources in the industry, and his popularity had skyrocketed. His name had been trending almost daily, and his fanbase had already crossed ten
million.
Chace knocked on the study door.
“Come in.”
Chace stepped inside, noticing Edgar’s agitated expression.
“Sir, the company has been facing significant losses lately. Do you think it might be time to return and address it?”
Ever since Marion conned him out of five billion dollars, and then Debra took another five billion, Edgar’s finances had taken a serious hit. His company was short a total of ten billion dollars, and to make matters worse, the investment in Potter Entertainment had cost him several more billion.
Even though the Odom family was wealthy, they weren’t prepared to move around such a massive amount in such a short time.
“My family’s assets are still worth hundreds of billions. We might not be on the Nichols family’s level, but we’re not in any real danger. Figure out a way to move the money around. It’s not that big of a deal.”
“But…”
Edgar cut him off, sliding the screen over for Chace to see.
“Take a look at this.”
On the screen, Oscar’s fan count hit the ten–million mark. In less than a month, the newcomer had already. made waves, becoming the first trainee to reach such heights since Michael, who had been made famous by Frazier Entertainment.
Chace was silent for a moment before he spoke hesitantly. “Oscar is a public figure now. We can’t openly work against him, not with Juan still holding influence here. And Ms. Frazier…”
The mere mention of Debra gave Edgar a headache. Why is she always involved whenever things go wrong?‘
He took a deep breath, holding back his frustration.
“Set up a meeting. I need to talk to Debra.”
“Sir, you may want to think this through. Right now, Debra and Juan…”
Edgar’s eyes darkened as he glanced back at the screen, where Oscar’s details flashed. He let out a cold laugh.
Juan abandoned the alliance with the Blair family only for her sake, and Marion would rather die than let anything happen to her. The two most powerful men in Seamar City are practically willing to go to war for her. I need to replace out why. In the end, she’s just a woman. Whatever she wants, I can offer too.”

Chapter Say
He could overlook many things, but not Oscar. He would never let the son of that woman become a beloved superstar.
Later that afternoon, Debra received a message from Edgar, requesting a meeting. Ben had initially thought Debra’s promise to deliver a surprise to Edgar had been a joke. But now, less than two weeks later, Edgar reached out.
“Madam, we’ve already followed your instructions and purchased several plots of land in Booton as part of the new development project. The word should’ve reached the Odoms by now, and yet Edgar seems determined to stay in Seamar City. Why hasn’t he reacted?”
“Edgar is focused on Oscar and expanding his influence in Seamar ty He’s not going to waste his energy on something so small.”
Debra smiled slyly and muttered to herself, The Odom family has reigned supreme in Booton for so long that they have grown complacent.
Edgar was so intent on claiming Seamar City that he hadn’t realized she was making moves in Booton,
the place he thought he controlled. By the time he noticed, it would be too late.
But until then, she needed to keep Edgar distracted and play along.
