Hearing the word "special gift" made everyone present freeze in fear. They knew this meant that there was a high possibility that they would undergo thorough investigations.


    If even Judah, someone with even more influence than Fredric, had fallen, they were next!


    Eamon''s face contorted with fear and his mind raced before he threw himself onto his knees before Wynter.


    "Wynter, it was all Edison''s doing! He threatened me! He said if I didn''t side with him, I''d face the same fate as the Whitman family. I didn''t have a choice!


    "I had such a great rtionship with your uncle and worked so hard for the Whitman Group all these years! Please forgive me! I beg you! I''ll apologize to your uncle! I will call him right now!"


    Hearing his plea, the other Chamber members crowded forward, mimicking his groveling tone.


    "I''ll apologize too, Ms. Quinnell! We were wrong! We''ll return to the Whitman family now!"


    "That''s right! If it weren''t for Edison''s threat, he wouldn''t be able to be the acting chairman!"@@novelbin@@


    Edison''s eyes widened, bloodshot with rage. "You ungrateful traitors! Me, threatening you? Weren''t you justining that the Whitman family was too strict with its rules and were too old-fashioned?


    "Just a few minutes ago, you people were drinking, swearing your loyalty, and saying we''d all live it up together. Now you turn around and y me for a fool!"

    wasn''t it? You want to take over the Whitman family, yet you haven''t got the guts or skills!"
