Observing the entire ordeal, Connie stared at the young man in disbelief. "What... What did you just say? So, you're the impostor, and he's the real Mr. Gomez?" But how could this be true? The revelation left Lewis visibly shaken, his anger simmering as he confronted the young man.
"Weren't you the one referred by the Barrett Group's branch? Didn't you claim to be Mr. Gomez? How dare you deceive me?" "I... I was just in it for the money," the young man confessed, his voice trembling.
Struggling to accept the truth, Lewis turned to Caleb, seeking confirmation. "So, if you're the real Caleb Gomez, then this man...' As Lewis spoke, his gaze shifted toward Timothy-the man he had long believed to be nothing more than a penniless bodyguard and impostor.

Lewis quickly caught on and turned to Caleb beside him. "Yeah, we were fooled as well. Mr Gomez, please don't take this matter to heart. We've always held you in high regard as an esteemed guest of the Bowen family." "Enough with the empty words! What's the use of saying this now? Who would ever want to be considered an honored guest of your family? Don't try to flatter yourselves," Caleb chided. Following Caleb's words, he swiftly incapacitated the impostor's arm.
