Chapter 551 Debra remained silent, which made Edgar believe his threats were arting to take effect.

"You won't dare." Edgar paused mid-motion, his eyes narrowing dangerously.

"What did you just say?" His gaze grew darker, a silent promise of consequences lingering e air, but Debra didn't waver.

"I said, you won't dare," she repeated, tilting her head slightly. "Otherwise, you would've made your move already instead of negotiating withhere. If you make a move, it won't just be the McKinney Group you're fighting." "Is that so?" I'm one of the McKinney Group's shareholders and, as you know, the legal wife of Juan. Opposingmeans opposing the Nichols family. But that's just the beginning," Debra continued, her voice steady and measured. "The McKinney Group's biggest strategic partner is the Potter Group. I have ties with Marion, and he's a key player there. Not to mention, the Houston family is closely linked with the Osborne family. Oh, and the Mathis family? They're Marion's relatives. So, by targeting me, you're picking a fight with every major family in Seamar City." Edgar's grip on his wine glass tightened, his knuckles turning white.

He knew full well what going up against the McKinney Group would entail. But he couldn't let Oscar rise to stardom and steal the spotlight "Ms. Frazier, leave it or take it," he said finally.

Debra didn't even bat an eyelid. "No." Edgar's patience was thinning, but Debra remained composed. "But since you're a guest in our city, this meal is on me. Please don't refuse." Without waiting for a response, she downed the rest of her wine in one graceful motion. "If you're not satisfied with how things went today, you're welcto try elsewhere. I doubt you'll have any more success, though. The only person who stands to benefit at this point is the owner of this restaurant." Her words, dripping with sarcasm, were a deliberate slap in the face. The loss to a woman gravely injured This pride.

"Looks like we're done here. Have the waitstaff box up the leftovers. A think Mr. Qdom likes the food here." "Yes, ma'am."

Debra turned back to Edgar, a playful smile tugging at her lips as she m observed his strained composure The Sound of dishes shattering soon echoed from inside the private room. Ben intended to say something, but Debra stopped him with a gesture.
