Chapter 193

Hanson frowned, his expression sour as a batch of turned milk.

Rhett, the best? “Hah…”

A scornful chuckle escaped Hanson’s lips before he spoke again. “Given Rhett’s current situation, the only asset to his name is SilverScreen Entertainment. If he loses his shares in the FitzGerald Group, he’ll be kicked to the curb, left with nothing but that entertainment company… It’s as good as being broke.”

Sure, Rhett’s entertainment empire was the talk of the town, but it wasn’t in the same league as the FitzGerald Group.

Once Rhett was ousted from the FitzGerald Group, and disowned by the FitzGerald family.* it meant falling from the lofty heights of CEO to a penniless entrepreneur.

For the FitzGerald Group, squashing SilverScreen Entertainment would be a walk in the park.

And once Holcomb made his final move, settling scores with Rhett, he’d surely be wary of his son climbing back to the top. Holcomb knew Rhett’s capabilities all too well; he’d definitely target Rhett’s personal ventures, ensuring he couldn’t make a comeback.

Kristin clenched her fists. “He’s Rhett. The FitzGerald Group is nothing without him. It’s all because of Rhett that they are where they are today. Without him, what are they?”

She had faith in Rhett, yet the thought of him facing these trials terrified her.

As the legitimate son, the heir apparent in Mr. FitzGerald’s will, all this should rightfully belong to Rhett. But if Holcomb was set on dirty tricks, he could snatch it all away.

At least… until Holcomb’s last breath, Rhett would remain under his thumb.

Kristin drew a deep breath, her grip tightening.

She needed to clear the path for Rhett, and soon. For now, Holcomb was merely warning
