Chapter 705

“This document needs your signature today,” he informed her.

Sadie took the file and flipped through it absentmindedly. Without signing, she peered up and questioned, “Any updates on Coyle and his son?”

Samuel hesitated for a beat before answering. “Coyle is by Sutton’s side at the hospital today. Nothing suspicious. Briley, however, has been seen near the Howe Manor a lot lately, like she’s digging for something…” Samuel reported truthfully.

Sadie’s frown deepened as unease settled in. Briley sniffing around Howe Manor could only spell trouble.

“Shadow Briley closely and report anything unusual.”

“Understood, Ms. Hudson,” Samuel replied before heading out.

One day, Briley stood once again outside the grand entrance of Howe Manor. She had long lost track of how many times she’d been turned away. The butler stood firm, his voice formal but clearly irritated.

“Miss Wall, I’ve mentioned this before—Mr. Howe has no time for visitors. Please, go.”

Briley forced a polite smile, struggling to keep her frustration in check.

“I promise, this is something Alex would want to hear.”

The butler, however, was unmoved, his patience thinning.

“Miss Wall, kindly don’t press further. Mr. Howe’s schedule is beyond my control.”

Before Briley could argue, the butler gestured for security.

Immediately, a guard approached, clearly ready to escort her away.

Briley’s expression turned sour, but arguing further would only disgrace her. Frustrated, she bit her lip and tightened her fists.

In the end, retreat was her only option. Briley stifled her rage, determined to walk through the gates with confidence and composure one day, proving to all that she was not someone to be underestimated. She made her way back to her home.

Inside the living room, Coyle sat comfortably, reviewing a document, a rare grin revealing his cheerful mood.

Briley’s curiosity got the better of her.

“Dad, what’s the good news?” she inquired.

Coyle lifted his gaze, his grin broadening at the sight of his daughter. He said enthusiastically, “Come here, Briley. I’ve got to show you this.”

He passed the document to Briley.

As Briley unfolded it, her eyes widened in disbelief. It was the Wall Group’s share transfer agreement—bearing Sadie’s name as the recipient.

Briley stared at her father, stunned.

“Dad, what…”

Coyle’s lips curled into a smug smirk. “Sadie’s cornered now—there’s no escape.”

Briley’s heart raced. She had long harbored resentment toward Sadie, and now victory seemed within reach. The thought filled her with satisfaction.

After a brief pause, Coyle added thoughtfully, “By the way, you’ll accompany me to Wall Manor tomorrow.”

Briley raised an eyebrow, confused.
