Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 376

Joe nodded and shouted toward the door, "Bring him in."

Edgar's frown deepened as a man was brought in by two bodyguards. The fight in the room immediately ceased.

The man was forced to his knees, his hands bound behind his back. His face was bruised and swollen.

Juan, his voice as cold as ice, issued a chilling command. "Cut off the hand that did the hitting."

The man struggled frantically, his eyes wide with terror. Edgar remained silent, his gaze fixed on the unfolding scene.

One of Juan's bodyguards grasped the man's wrist and, with a swift and brutal motion, brought a heavy object crashing down. A scream echoed through the room before he slumped to the floor, unconscious.

Edgar's gaze was icy, but he knew better than to intervene. Seamar City was Juan's territory, and picking a fight here would not end in his favor. Moreover, Marion's men had come to warn him earlier that day.

"This is settled." Juan stood up, his eyes locked onto Edgar. "Mr. Odom, if you want to settle accounts with Shelia, I'm always here. Show me what you've got."

With that, he left the nightclub, his men following closely behind.

Edgar's secretary, standing beside them, wore a deep frown. "Sir, are we just going to let this go?"

The Odom family's influence in Booton was not something to be taken lightly, yet Juan dared to challenge them like this.

"I'm not afraid of Juan."

"Then who, sir?"

"Marion."

Edgar's brows knitted together. He hadn't anticipated that Debra would cause such significant moves from Marion and Juan. If he had known, he wouldn't have acted so impulsively.

Rubbing his temples, Edgar asked, "Where is Shelia?"

"She should be at home waiting for you, sir," replied Chace.

"Sort of."

"How did you resolve it?"

She was intrigued by what Marion could have done to make Edgar back down, knowing full well the Odom family's power.

Marion pulled out a bank card and placed it in her hand. "Here is five billion."

Debra's eyes widened in shock. "Five billion?"

She couldn't believe that Edgar had given up five billion dollars for that slap.

"What's this? Economic compensation?"

"I made him pay five billion dollars, but I didn't say I'd stop at that."
