Chapter 784
Debra didnโt believe that lie for a second. She didnโt forget how he had disposed of Peter on the ship. But on the surface, she nodded in agreement. โWe share the same goal. Iโm not greedy. Once this is all over, I simply want to restore the Frazier familyโs name and status. That alone will suffice. As for everything here, naturally, itโs all yours. I wonโt covet any of it.โ
โNot covet anything? Do you have any idea how much this project will bring monthly?โ Drake asked, a glimmer of amusement dancing in his eyes. It was likely the first time he had encountered someone faced with a mountain of wealth who claimed to be satisfied with mere scraps.
โAlright, since youโre injured and not thinking straight, Iโll pretend I didnโt hear that nonsense. I brought you here not just to put Kale at ease, but also to make sure you understand that Orkgate is under my thumb. Partnering with me is the best decision youโve ever made.โ
โI understand.โ
โGood. Get in the car.โ
โWhere are you taking me? Canโt I just rest?โ
Drake was still dragging her around when she was so weak. Working for him was beyond frustrating.
โIโm taking you to get revenge.โ
Before Debra could respond, Kale had driven the car over. As she climbed in, unease settled in her stomach. She wondered if Drake was planning to confront Yvonne. That would undoubtedly affect the alliance between their families. Drake must have lost his mind to do that.
As Debra pondered these questions, the car pulled up to the Sharp familyโs villa. The mansion stood proudly in the city center. When the security guard at the entrance saw Drakeโs car, he promptly stepped forward, ready to open the door.
โMr. Sharp went to the office early this morning. If you wish to reach him, we can call him for you right away.โ
โNo need. Iโm here to see Yvonne.โ
The guard signaled to a servant, who swiftly turned to notify Yvonne. Kale immediately grabbed him by the collar. Debra felt a flicker of doubt. The Sharp family was a powerful clan in Orkgate. Yet everyone there seemed to be afraid of Drake. By right, it was Drake seeking an alliance with them; he should be the humble one.
Drake strode into the mansion, with every servant bowing respectfully as they passed.
โWhereโs Yvonne?โ
โMiss Sharp is in her bedroom.โ
Without hesitation, Drake marched toward the bedroom. Debra struggled to keep pace, and noticing her lagging, he slowed down.
โKeep your mouth shut. Donโt speak unless I ask you to.โ
โAnything you say, boss.โ
