“Contact Edgar. Tell him that I’ll meet him at 8 PM at the Royal Grand Hotel.”
“Yes, ma’am”
Later that evening, the Royal Grand Hotel had been set up with an elaborate feast. Debra arrived, dressed in a black gown. Silver tassel earrings glittered by her ears, accentuating her long hair, which tumbled down her back like a river of night.
She was a vision, mesmerizing enough to make anyone stop in their tracks. Even Edgar, who had arrived earlier, found himself momentarily lost when she walked in.
He had seen plenty of beautiful women in Booton and even more
Is circle, but none of them were like Debra. There was something about her, especially those eyes, which seemed to hold an almost hypnotic allure.
By the time Edgar snapped out of it, Debra had already seated herself across from him. Her smile was polite but carried an edge. Edgar finally remembered the goal of this meeting.
“Mr. Odom, you’ve been in Seamar City for a while now. How are you replaceing it? Settling in alright?”
“Everything’s fine, but the people here are not easy to deal with.”
There was an unspoken jab in his words, but Debra merely smiled.
“I replace most people here are easy enough to get along with. It just depends on who you’re dealing with.”
“You’re a smart woman, so I will just get to the point.”
“Oh? I’m listening.”
“We’re both business people, so let’s make a deal.”
“A deal?” Debra said thoughtfully. “I’m just an employee. My boss is Mr. McKinney. If you have any business to discuss, it would be better to talk to him.”
“If he could be reached, I wouldn’t have bothered you, Ms. Frazier,” explained Edgar.
He generally didn’t take businesswomen seriously, but Debra was an exception. It wasn’t so much that she was powerful; rather, it was the men around her who made him wary.
“Alright, then, you can briefly outline the details of the deal, so I can ask Mr. McKinney for his thoughts
later.”
“I want Oscar gone. Out of the picture.”
Debra swirled the red liquid in her glass. “Oscar is our next big star, and you want us to make him disappear. That’s asking a lot.”
Edgar’s voice carried undeniable arrogance. “Everything has a price. No amount is too high.
Given the Odom family’s wealth, that wasn’t just an empty boast.
Debra said, “If you’re truly a businessperson, then you should understand that some things are beyond price. We’ve already invested a lot in Oscar, and the returns we expect from him are immeasurable. Even

if I were to ask for one trillion, would you be willing to bankrupt your family?”
Edgar frowned. Handing over that kind of money just to eliminate Oscar was clearly not wise.
“Well, you
should seriously reconsider the value of the person you’re protecting Oscar isn’t worth that much.” He leaned back, his posture relaxed but his words heavy with threat.
“Besides, my family didn’t rise to the top for no reason Even if we can’t come to an agreement tonight, I can prevent him from rising to fame. I’ll use every resource I have to crush him. The McKinney Group won’t see a dime, and you’ll be left with nothing but a heap of trouble.”
