Goodbye Mr Ex I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 425

Chapter 425 

As the tension in the room thickened, Debra suddenly piped up. 

“It seems Mr. Odom has a particular fondness for male trainees. I suppose that means us ladies are out of luck when it comes to investments.” 

The implication hung in the air like a thick fog, and Edgar’s frown deepened. He withdrew his hand from Oscar’s shoulder as if it were on fire. 

Henry began to sweat bullets, not expecting Debra to be so blunt. 

In a bid to smooth things over, he interjected, “Haha, you’re joking, Debra. Mr. Odom will invest in the whole program. All of you will be funded. Mr. Odom is a real man.” 

But his effort only made things worse as everyone struggled to stifle their laughter. 

Edgar’s voice turned silky, a mocking undertone barely concealed. “Mrs. Nichols, it seems I must have offended you in the past. Why else would you be so keen on targeting me now?” 

Debra shrugged. “Mr. Odom, you’re joking. There is no such thing.” 

Edgar leaned in, his voice a low whisper meant only for her ears. “The news reports. Was that your doing?” 

The trainees whispered among themselves in disgust.

“Figured Debra had her agenda. Didn’t expect her to use this trick to entice Mr. Odom. 

“She is shameless, flaunting like that in front of so many people.” 

Oscar stepped forward and pushed Edgar away from Debra. “Mr. Odom, social distance, please.” 

-Freya, observing from a distance, bit her lip, her displeasure written all over her face. 

Debra, however, maintained an air of innocence. 

“Mr. Odom, I had nothing to do with those rumors. I’m as baffled as you are.” 

“Let’s hope so, Edgar said, arching his eyebrows. “I wouldn’t want to think you lack credibility, Mrs. Nichols.”

Debra merely smiled, her eyes giving nothing away. 

Edgar straightened, addressing the room. “I need to review a few things. If everything checks out, we’ll sign the contract. I’ll fund both groups of trainees.” 

“Sure!” Henry said happily. 

Oscar, however, frowned at the news. As Edgar turned to leave, he shot Oscar a look. loaded with meaning. 

Tomas was puzzled. “What was that about? Did he take a liking to you?” 

Debra shrugged, chiming in, “I had no idea the Odom family was so progressive. Putting on a show of devotion for the public while playing a different game behind the scenes.”
