When he saw Edgar's face peering through the small window, he quickly realized that Debra's identity needed to remain concealed.

Debra swiftly gathered the documents scattered across the table. She exchanged a glance with Michael, who gave her a subtle nod of understanding.
Debra moved to the door and opened it, stepping out into the corridor to face Edgar." Mr. Odom, it's quite late. What brings you here?" Edgar stood up, his tall frtowering over Debra. "I heard that Michael was injured, so I cto see him." Debra pulled away from him a bit and said, "Are you aware who caused the accident? Since Shelia was behind the accident, she must have someone backing her up.
Edgar was silent for a moment before speaking. "I don't want to hide anything from you, Ms. Frazier. I just learned that Jade was responsible for the accident. She didn't get my approval before doing this. Had I known..." Debra interrupted him. "If you had known, you would have likely covered it up more thoroughly to protect Shelia."

Please have your finance team prepare a detailed bill for the medical and other expenses, and I will cover everything." Michael chuckled, “I don't think I've ever crossed paths with you, Mr. Odom."
Edgar glanced at Debra, the implication clear. Shelia's attack on Michael was likely a warning to Debra. After all, everyone in Seamar City knew Michael was a cash cow for the Frazier family. If anything serious happened to him, the incthe McKinney Group received from the Frazier family would take a major hit.
"Since Mr. Odom wants to compensate, let's accept it," Debra said, turning back to Edgar. "I assyou want us not to sue Shelia, right?"
