Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right

Debra pondered for a moment before replying, "Technically, we're enemies."

Oscar fell silent, seemingly weighing whether she was telling the truth.

Debra continued, "I've been straight with you about my relationship with Edgar. It's only fair you do the same."

She could see Edgar was gunning for Oscar, just like a predator stalking its prey.

The murderous intent in Edgar's eyes had been unmistakable.

"No comment."

He turned to leave, but Debra's next words stopped him cold.

"Is he your brother?"

Oscar whirled around, his hand shooting out to grasp Debra's neck, not tightly, but firmly enough to send a clear message. "How do you know that? Who are you?" Debra remained composed. "Your reaction just confirmed it."

Oscar was taken aback, his grip loosening. Debra vaguely remembered some rumors about the Odom family from her previous life. Although the Odom family had dealt with them, I was better to believe in their existence than to dismiss them. Given the resemblance between Oscar and Edgar, along with the similarity in their names, Debra had a certain guess, but she wasn't entirely sure. That question had finally confirmed her suspicion.

Oscar was indeed inexperienced and easily fooled.

Oscar's face darkened. "You tricked me."

Debra shrugged dismissively. "With your naivety, you don't stand a chance against Edgar. My advice? Terminate your contract with Potter Entertainment and get out while you can." "I can't leave."

"If you don't leave, you'll face the end

of your career. Even though the investment in this program might not be a loss, there's no need for Edgar's personal visit. He's just here to confirm your existence, knowing that the investment will make h him a shareholder. That gives him the right to torment and ruin you. Don't you get it?"

Oscar pressed his lips together. He understood, but he had no choice. He could only stay there.

Debra's eyes narrowed as she

studied him. She suddenly

remembered the breach of contract mentioned by Ashley and others, and it clicked. "You can't afford the breach of contract penalties can you?"

Oscar's ears turned red, confirming her suspicion. Debra laughed drily, not expecting him to be so poor.

Oscar's voice was barely audible. "I'm an illegitimate child. I don't have money."

He had joined the program on his merits, hoping to make a name for himself. This was his only chance.

"Then what's your plan? Are you going to fight Edgar?"

"No."

"Then you're just going to roll over and admit defeat?"

"I just want to stay out of his way."Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

"Fat chance. Edgar sees you as a threat to his inheritance."

Debra knew Edgar's thoughts too well. She had once wondered why Edgar went to so much trouble to come from Booton to Seamar City just for Jade. It turned out there was this crucial matter.

"He won't rest until you're eliminated," she said, patting Oscar's shoulder, "Be careful. He won't make it easy for you."
