Chapter 793

Jonah felt like his heart was being ripped apart. How much must she have endured in silence?

Briley was clearly the one stirring unrest, yet Sadie was the one offering to take the fall to restore peace? It was absurd. If Sadie truly left, who would lead Wall Group? Briley? That airhead? The entire corporation would crash within months!

And the family? Would they really hand the reins over to Briley—that scheming opportunist?

Overwhelmed, Jonah stomped the floor in frustration, his voice rising with anguish.

“No! This cannot happen!”

Both inside the hall and beyond its walls, reporters quickly pieced together the emerging narrative.

Only hours earlier, Briley’s display at the press conference had shaped public opinion—casting Sadie as cold and unfeeling. But with the latest revelations, that opinion crumbled.

The real manipulator was Briley, who had cunningly stirred public emotion to corner Sadie. Her so-called noble gesture might have had some truth to it, but her intentions were now glaringly transparent.

The atmosphere shifted. Reporters now regarded Briley with disapproval, whispers spreading like wildfire.

“So that’s what really happened. Briley’s behavior is downright disgraceful.”

“Hard to believe—pulling moves like this at the beginning of her public career? She must be desperate for recognition.”noveldrama

“Ms. Hudson has been through so much. Her husband passed away three years ago. She’s cared for an ill mother-in-law, raised a child on her own, and still kept Wall Group thriving. That’s not easy!”

“Exactly. Under her leadership, the company hasn’t just stayed afloat—it’s grown stronger. Everyone can see it.”

“And now, her cousin-in-law is forcing her out? That’s cruel.”

In that moment, realization hit Briley like a punch to the gut.

She scanned the hall—the cameras, the lights, and then Sadie, poised and graceful as ever.

This had been orchestrated by Sadie from the start. From the moment Briley had painted herself as the victim, Sadie had been planning.

That conniving witch!

As if sensing the intensity of Briley’s stare, Sadie turned slightly. Their eyes met, and Sadie’s slight smirk seemed to say, “You’ve been outplayed.”

Heat surged through Briley’s veins, clouding her thoughts. Anger flared dangerously, threatening to boil over.

Her hands trembled, itching to wipe the smug grin off Sadie’s face. That despicable woman—how could she be so brazen?
