“You know how I am,” Edwin lamented, hanging his head. “After taking over the company, I finally understood the struggles Jalen faced when our grandfather was ill.”

He looked up at Hannah with genuine admiration. “And I finally realized your decisive actions during that time were truly remarkable! ALL those old shareholders in the company are so crafty.” A hint of frustration crept into his voice. “I feel powerless against them.”
Hannah raised her eyebrows, recalling Edwin’s initial complaints about the company when she first went abroad.
“Have you dealt with Dexter yet?” she asked.
Edwin grimaced. “Don’t mention him. He’s in league with those old shareholders. It takes serious skill to maintain power around here.”
He sighed deeply, leaning on the table with a plaintive look. “Hannah, maybe you should come back and take charge.”
“What would you do if I never return?” Hannah challenged.
Edwin was visibly startled by her words, his expression freezing momentarily.

“Are you leaving a last will or something?” he asked, blinking rapidly.
“What are you talking about?!”

Hannah delivered another smack to his head!
Thud!
The sound reverberated through the room, louder than before.
Edwin instinctively held his head, cheeks flushing red. “Hannah, are you serious?!”
Hannah glared at him icily. “That’s what you get for spouting nonsense. Think before you speak next time.”
“I’m sorry, Hannah!” Edwin whimpered, tears welling in his eyes as he nursed his throbbing head. “It’s not my fault. Your words were too misleading. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have misunderstood…”
Arms crossed, Hannah continued to stare him down. “What I mean is, I won’t be able to help forever. What’s your plan for the future?” I need to figure it out,” Edwin stammered, scratching his head.
“Dexter…” Hannah’s eyes lowered, a faint murmur escaping her lips.
“What mischief has he stirred up now?”
Edwin’s expression darkened visibly at the mention of Dexter, clearly pissed off by the man’s offenses.
Edwin seethed, clenching his fists. “It’s bad enough he’s taking kickbacks! Remember that time he brought in that problematic partnership? If I hadn’t caught wind of it, we’d have lost a significant amount of money! And then he had the nerve to act like it was all justified. He probably thought because of my position in the White family, I wouldn’t make a fuss if nothing catastrophic happened.”
Edwin’s fist slammed onto the table, his chest rising and falling with each breath. “And now he’s in cahoots with those old-timers, and I feel powerless to stop him! Recently, he’s been pushing boundaries even further. I heard whispers that he’s plotting to team up with Tyshawn from the Mitchell family. He’s not risking his own money; instead, he plans to use company funds to strike a deal with the Mitchells. If it works, he stands to gain a lot; if it fails, he walks away unscathed.”
Hannah’s eyes narrowed with understanding. “So he’s exploiting the group’s resources for personal gain?”
Edwin nodded grimly. “Exactly. I’m aware of it all, but technically, it’s not embezzlement. And I have no clue how much he’s pocketing from those kickbacks. I feel utterly trapped!”
