"If you have any doubts about his identity, you are more than welcto visit Mr. Ralph Castro and ask him yourself. Regardless, Blaine shall represent the Castro family starting today. Feel free to direct any relevant concerns you may have to him." Her words left no room for argument.

It was Ralph's signature on the document, right beside the stamped seal of the Castro family.
Another wave of whispers swept through the room. Everyone was shocked by this development.
That unruly-looking rascal was really Ralph's grandson? Was the Castro family actually stepping back into the company affairs? What was going on? Coyle gnashed his teeth together. He had never seen this coming, and he couldn't stomach the fact. It never occurred to him that Sadie would enlist the Castro family's support. This was turning into a total disaster! The Castro family had been one of Wall Group's founding pillars. With their backing, Sadie's position would practically be untouchable. Coyle's fists clenched at his sides, his rage bubbling up to the surface.
"Is there a problem?" Blaine asked in obvious provocation. “Still think I'm an imposter?" Blaine's voice was relaxed, laced with the entitlement of someone born into privilege.

"Sadie, you..." "Coyle," Sadie cut in, her tone sharp and commanding, "In this company, you will refer toas Ms. Hudson." Coyle was practically trembling with rage.

"Ms. Hudson, there's only one day left until the deadline you mentioned. And today happens to be theshareholders gathering. Surely you're not about to read a resignation speech in this very room?" His voice was thick with mockery and challenge. Sadie's calm never wavered. Without a word, she glanced toward Samuel.
Catching her cue, Samuel placed a pile of papers on the polished conference table.
"Everyone," he said firmly, "please review these documents. They detail the partnership Ms. Hudson secured with Mr. Noel from Burgess Group. The formal celebration will be held this Friday." Gasps filled the room as Samuel's announcement landed. Coyle snatched the papers, eyes darting across the pages.
