Chapter 677
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 planning, 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 want to destroy the Odom family.”
Chace was surprised. Debra had all but won, and even if he laid out all the risks to Edgar, the latter wouldn’t listen.

“Ten billion?”
“If I’m not mistaken, the Odom Group is short by about that much. When Edgar falls, my investment will keep the family afloat, allowing them to start over.”
“But if Edgar is gone, won’t the company 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 a company?”
“I wouldn’t say that. Oscar was groomed by his mother she gave her son a similar name. Before he debuted, O the McKinney Group, I’ve had people tutoring him priva
“So, you’ve been planning this all along?”
“Well, I’ve laid everything out for you. Are you still going
