Chapter 1191

Downstairs, the quartet was playing poker.Ivan came out of the kitchen, and Debra called him over.When Marion came down, Randy randomly placed a card on the table and said, "What did you guys talk about? Why is it that even Debra can't listen?""Private matter," Marion replied, noticing their signals under the table.They were teaming up against Ivan. Marion pretended he hadn't seen anything, but Debra winked at him.Taking the hint, he walked behind Ivan and signaled to Debra.Ivan tossed out a card, and Debra exclaimed, "Gotcha!"Ivan was dumbfounded, and Randy laughed, "Kid, you're still too young. Pay up."Ivan took a deep breath and handed Debra a green note.In just a few rounds, Ivan had already lost over a thousand dollars.Erica deliberately spoke. "I hear that Theda has been throwing her weight about lately. Financial magazines are lining up to feature her on their covers. They say she's going to be the next big shot after Juan.""So what if she becomes the Nicho

Marion dragged Ivan to the living room.Seeing his eyes darting around, Debra demanded, "Spill it. Who are you sending this message to?""No one," Ivan stammered."Stop lying," Randy snorted. "You think only young people can use this stuff? I've been at it longer than you have."In no time, he cracked the code and projected the content onto the TV. The screen showed an email address, and the subject of the email hadn't been edited yet.Debra said, "Look into the email address.""It's from overseas," Randy replied. "Give me two hours, and I'll have the registration details.""You can save the trouble," Ivan chimed in. "That's my account."Debra frowned. "What do you mean?""I don't want to investigate you guys, but the person behind all this has been threatening my family. I have to follow their orders, or we won't survive in Orkgate," Ivan explained.Debra raised an eyebrow. "So, did you meet them before?"Ivan hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "I did."Debra pressed, "W

Facing their doubt, Ivan explained, "They sent me to kill you, but things were exposed. They showed up again the night you took me and threatened me with my parents' lives. They asked me to stay close to you and deliver information. I had no choice.""Sounds reasonable." Debra nodded, then asked, "But I need a reason to keep you alive. You haven't given me one.""I..." Ivan faltered, hanging his head. "I can't give you a reason."Randy laughed, "You blabbered on for so long, and in the end, you don't have any evidence to make us believe you?""If I wanted to kill Mrs. Houston, I wouldn't have hinted to Mr. Houston to save her," Ivan replied, looking at Debra. "I owe Mrs. Houston. If there's danger, I'm willing to sacrifice my life to save her.""That sounds touching," Debra said, "but empty promises mean nothing. If you want to stand on our side, you have to pledge loyalty. Here is your chance."Debra picked up the small computer and handed it to him. "Now, message your people an

Debra smiled, "Well, this is a chance to verify his statements."Erica was against it. "He may be telling a lie.""I'm always a gambler on fate," Debra replied casually.At those words, Andrew's expression suddenly relaxed.He shook his head and said, "Well then, let's do it your way. Just be careful.""Andrew, how could you agree?" Erica argued.But then, Marion also changed his mind. He said, "Let her go. I'll make sure nothing happens to her."Randy was stunned by the twists. He warned, "If anything happens, you'll be a widower.""Alright, stop talking," Erica said, nudging him.Debra turned to Ivan and said, "You can send the message now. I'll be leaving at eight tomorrow morning with the share transfer agreement."Ivan's mind raced. He didn't know what Debra was thinking, but this worked just fine. He'd be by her side tomorrow, and these people wouldn't be able to save her."I'll do it," he agreed, quickly typing on his computer."Alright, let's all rest early," Debra

Ivan and Debra got into the car.Randy and Erica stood at the door, looking worried.Marion took out his pistol and loaded it with bullets."Stop looking," he said. "The game is on.""Huh? What game?" Randy was confused.But before he could process it, Marion threw a set of clothes at him. "Put these on. We're getting ready to move."Randy had no idea what was going on....Debra's car was running steadily on the road."What should we do if there is an ambush? Should I help you or them?" Ivan asked."Depends on the situation," Debra replied, taking out a file.Ivan glanced at it, guessing it was the stock transfer agreement.Debra continued, "They're after this document, not my life, right?""It's hard to say," replied Ivan.Debra tried again, "If I give them this agreement, won't they let me go?""Not necessarily.""Why?""Your existence is a threat to them. They won't let you live."Suddenly, the driver slammed on the brakes.A bullet darted over and shattered the

"Damn!" Randy ripped off the broken mask from his face and yanked the voice changer off his neck. "Who the hell told you to shoot at me? Do you know how much my suit costs?"Ivan glanced down at the gun in his hand and then at the driver, who crawled out of the car.The whole thing was just an act.Debra stood up and dusted off her clothes. "Pardon us. We had to be cautious."Those masked men were disguised by the Potter family's bodyguards.Ivan furrowed his brow. "Why? Were you testing me?""You must be new to Seamar City," Debra said. "This road doesn't lead to the Nichols Group. It's the opposite. If you'd paid attention, you would've noticed it earlier.""So, last night, the message you made me send was also part of the test," Ivan said, realization dawning on him.Randy patted him on the shoulder. "Not just testing you. We're going to round up all those people. Congrats, kid. You passed the test."Ivan was stunned. Sure enough, Debra was as cunning as their boss had said

Debra took a detour and headed to the Nichols Group.Seemingly in a good mood, she hummed a tune in the car. Her easy air drew a glance from Ivan.He had reason to believe she was either careless or reckless. Even though Marion was sort of a legend, he couldn't just fend off those skilled fighters of their boss.It was a dead end, and yet Debra didn't look worried at all.In the passenger seat, Randy spoke up, "Don't worry, Ivan. Your family is now under Drake's protection. Even if you're exposed, nothing will happen to your family."Ivan didn't reply. He wasn't worried about his family at all. What worried him was the failure of this mission.If Debra succeeded in taking over the Nichols Group, they would be facing a serious problem....At the entrance to the Nichols Group Headquarters, Theda glanced at her watch.Joe reminded her, "Ms. Buchan, the meeting starts in ten minutes. Please head upstairs to prepare.""I'll just wait here," Theda replied.Joe tried again, "Mrs.

Theda took her seat and continued, "I didn't come right away because I was waiting for someone. As everyone knows, Mr. Nichols' shares are not in my hands. So, I was waiting for the share transfer agreement to be handed over to me. Only then can the ceremony be perfect, right?"Just then, someone knocked on the door.Theda said, "Come in."Robert entered and handed a folder to her."What took you so long?""Sorry.""Never mind."What mattered was that the agreement was now in her hands.She opened the folder, and inside was a thick stack of papers.The first page was blank. She frowned and flipped it over until she saw a big, glaring turtle drawn on it.Her face turned dark. She continued to flip through the papers quickly, surprised to find that the turtle had transformed into an animated gif. Then a fist appeared next to the turtle, and the middle finger was slowly raised toward it."What's this? Where did you get this file?" she huffed.Melody gave no heed to Theda's com

The shareholders exchanged uneasy glances.If it had been anyone else, they might have brushed it off.But this was Drake.They all thought back to the extravagant banquets he had hosted in Seamar City. Many of them had attended, leaving evidence in Drake's hands.If they offended him, he might leak those videos online. Their reputation would be ruined.Melody sneered, "Debra, have you lost your mind? He's just someone from Orkgate. How far could his influence reach? We have appointed Theda as the next CEO. What's your game to stir up trouble here?""That's just a decision. If everyone agrees, we can still revoke it. Isn't that right, everyone?" Debra argued, sweeping her gaze over the room.Those shareholders were as silent as the grave.Melody laughed sarcastically, "Debra, are you crazy? Theda's appointment has already been finalized. Why would we revoke it? Even if Drake holds 45% shares, so what? Without more than 50%, he has no right to remove the CEO.""Don't be so quic

"Well, that's thanks to you, Ms. Buchan," Debra grinned. "If you hadn't given me the agreement, things wouldn't have been so smooth.""What?" Melody caught the keyword and questioned Theda, "You gave her the share transfer agreement? What were you thinking?"She tried to hit Theda, but Robert rushed inside the room and blocked her.Theda looked her in the eye. "Melody, I still hold 10% shares. You better think twice before laying a hand on me.""Ingrate!" Melody spat. "If I hadn't transferred those shares to you, you wouldn't even be standing in this room. You traitor!"Theda was in no mood to argue with her. "Robert, escort Mrs. Nichols Sr. out. She no longer has a place in this company. Send her back to enjoy her retirement.""Yes, ma'am," Robert responded, dragging Melody out of the room.Theda turned to face Debra. "Mrs. Houston, that was a clever move, giving away your stocks just like that. You won, but don't celebrate too early. Trusting others like this isn't always a go
