"Something to return to you," Debra said blandly as she unpinned the orchid brooch from her blouse.
She'd once wondered who gave it to her until she realized only Juan fit.
The brooch clattered to the floor. Juan's eyes flickered imperceptibly before he said flatly, "Never seen it. You're mistaken."
"Maybe I am." Debra's voice stayed calm.
Juan took Vickie's hand and left without glancing back. Debra didn't spare the brooch a look either.
She turned back to the room. "Thank you for your support. Let me be clear. I'm the only heiress of the Frazier family, and the McKinney Group has one leader. Stay, and I'll honor your trust. Leave, and we go our separate ways."
The shareholders pledged their loyalty one after another.
"I'm staying. Juan paraded some lookalikes and claimed she owned the world. I don't give it a shit."
"We follow Mrs. Houston as a business leader, but some heiress title."
"We'll never bite the hand that feeds us. Where was this lady when the Frazier Group nearly collapsed? Now she wants a piece of the pie? Ridiculous."
Murmurs of agreement swelled, and the partners hesitated.
Suddenly, voices boomed from the doorway. "We stand with Mrs. Houston."
