NovelEnglishChapter 792: Jonah, already shaken by Sadie's bombshell and the prying eyes of the media, flared with fury at Briley's bold declaration. His anger surged as he turned to glare at Briley.
Was this girl truly that clueless? Did she think this was the right moment to be reckless? Did she think leadership was a prize anyone could claim at a moment's notice? Had she forgotten how her father, Coyle, nearly dragged the entire family legacy into ruin? Half the family's heritage was almost lost because of him. Entrusting such enormous power to her-someone impulsive, reckless, and selfish-would be beyond foolish.

Fighting the urge to lash out, Jonah turned away from Briley and stepped forward to help Sadie rise, his voice hoarse with emotion.
"Sadie, please... don't kneel on the cold floor. If something's troubling you, speak up! We'll support you no matter what. The leadership of the Wall family and the position at the helm of Wall Group have always belonged to your branch of the family. This rule has been honored for generations, and no one has the authority to change it. You can't step down-under no circumstances!” Jonah's voice cracked, and his eyes brimmed with tears. Briley listened, her grin stiffening.
Why was Sadie getting all the sympathy and backing? She was the one who had suggested stepping away! Why did it suddenly feel like she was the victim? Were these elders completely oblivious? Briley's hands balled into fists.
Following Jonah's words, Sadie slowly rose. Her gaze was tinged with sorrow, and a faint, strained smile touched her lips-an expression that tugged at the heartstrings.
"Granduncle," she said softly, “it's not that I wish to walk away from my responsibilities, but...” She paused and exhaled, her tone heavy with fatigue.
