Chapter 649 One Condition

Triston and Aidan, upon learning that their efforts to mobilize funds had been intercepted, tried everything but didn’t achieve much.

They hadn’t expected the Breens to infiltrate so thoroughly, completely cutting off their retreat and leaving them with no chance to prepare.

After receiving the news, Branden comforted them, telling them not to worry.

This only deepened their sense of guilt. They had hoped for a chance to help Branden, but now their once- prosperous family seemed so vulnerable.

Soon, news circulated within their circle that the Lamberts and the Lanes were facing financial problems, unable to support the Duncans.

That afternoon, the rising stock prices of the Duncan Corporation plummeted, significantly affecting its business. Rumors spread that this time, the Duncan Corporation was against the notorious Breens, destined for failure.

Edson sat in front of his computer, watching the brilliant scene he had set up. A satisfied expression appeared on his chiseled face when he saw the Duncan Corporation’s stock price plummeting.

He had said it before-opposing him meant a dead end. Branden dared to offend him, so he shouldn’t be surprised if Edson struck mercilessly.

Edson stood up in triumph, whistling as he left the office. He needed to savor this spectacular moment.

When Catherine emerged from the school building, she spotted Edson in front of her in a fancy outfit. Her eyebrows immediately furrowed, a hint of displeasure evident in her eyes.

Amelia noticed her change in mood and recognized Edson. She whispered a suggestion to Catherine, “Super Catherine, there’s another door at the other end of the classroom. Shall we go that way to avoid him?”

“He’s not worth it.” Catherine walked straight ahead. She was accustomed to others avoiding her and had never avoided anyone.

Amelia watched Catherine’s cool back and couldn’t help applauding. “She is truly extraordinary. Her aura is so powerful and impressive,” she exclaimed inwardly.

Edson noticed Catherine coming out and immédiately stopped charming the nearby female students, heading straight toward Catherine. “Hey, Cassie!”

Catherine acted as if she hadn’t heard and walked forward without glancing at him. Her face was cold and indifferent.

Edson was accustomed to being rejected by Catherine and did not give up. He increased his pace, blocking Catherine’s path.

Catherine narrowed her eyes, her low voice carrying a strong warning. “Get out of my way. Understand?”

Edson suppressed his anger, maintaining his last smile in an attempt to please Catherine. “Cassie, don’t be like this; we’re friends, aren’t we? Since we have time today, let’s have a meal together.”

Catherine had no intention of entangling with Edson and tried to walk around him to leave. After being rejected multiple times, Edson was a bit furious. His eyes now held a thick anger. “Catherine, stop!”

Catherine continued walking without turning her head. Edson could only play his trump card. “Don’t you care about Branden? Do you want to witness the bankruptcy of the Duncan Corporation?

Edson’s inner anger intensified when he saw Catherine stop. This was the jealousy of a man. He could not figure out where he had lost to that loser, Branden.

Catherine turned around, disdainful eyes locking onto Edson. “Speak if you have something to say.” Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Catherine’s indifferent attitude completely angered Edson. No longer feigning affection, he revealed his true, sinister face.

“Cassie, the Duncan Corporation is finished. If you agree to marry me and return to the Breens, I can promise you one condition. For example, spare the Duncan Corporation.” Edson’s eyes exuded confidence; he was confident Catherine would agree.
