Chapter 834
Debra asked, "Is the Eaton family that powerful?"
"They're leagues above Edgar. Even Drake pales in comparison to them," Andrew replied, shooting a look at Marion. "Ask Marion how much trouble he had taken over the Bernard family. The Bernards are nothing compared to the Eatons." Debra fell silent, the gravity of the situation sinking in.
Andrew added, "And this gentleman here packed Liza and Cathryn and shipped them out of the country. That takes a special kind of nerve."
Debra blinked. "Packed them?"
Andrew confirmed, "Yes, in a cargo container."
Debra glanced at Marion, who explained, "They forced my hands."
Andrew reasoned, "Liza is pampered in her family. Her father learned about this and immediately sent people here to expand their business and compete with us."
If the Eatons came in, it could upend everything. They were the real deal, unlike Edgar, who lacked the capability, and Drake, who had to act in secret due to Marion's presence.
The Eatons had both wealth and legitimate businesses. If they set up in Seamar City, they'd be formidable opponents.
Debra thought for a moment and asked, "Is the heir named Garland Eaton?"
Andrew replied, "Garland? No, his name is Fermin Eaton."
Debra was surprised that Garland wasn't made the heir.
As she was doubting her earlier judgment, Marion suddenly asked, "Where did you hear that name?"

Maybe Garland was just a distant member of the Eaton family and would achieve great things one day.
Just then, Barton entered the room with a gift box. "The item you requested, sir."
Andrew nodded. "Leave it there."
Debra eyed the box. "What's that?"
"A gift to the host of the banquet tonight," Andrew replied.
Debra mused, "Is the host any special?"
Andrew exchanged a glance with Marion. "Yes, this banquet is hosted by the Eaton family and the Lowe family."
Debra's smile faded at the mention of the latter. It meant that Drake had come to Seamar City.
