Chapter 473 A Change In
Leadership
Seriously?
Since when did Sutton become so delicate?
Sadie scoffed.
Sutton was clearly lying–he wasn’t sick; he was definitely scheming something.
“Hold off on processing the resignation for now. There’s no rush,” she instructed coolly.
“Understood, Ms. Hudson,” the HR manager responded before ending the call.
Sadie’s gaze grew colder, suspicion brewing beneath the surface.
What game was Sutton playing this time?
A knock broke her train of thought.
Samuel’s voice followed from outside the office.
“Ms. Hudson.”
“Come in,” she replied, masking her concerns with a neutral tone.
Samuel stepped inside, holding a file, his demeanor calm and unreadable.
“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 the 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 the Howe Manor.
She had long lost track of how many times she’d been turned away.
The butler stood firm, 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.
“Wall Manor? Why?”

A calculating glint flashed in Coyle’s eyes.
“You’ll find out soon enough. We need everyone on our side to ensure Sadie is left with no allies.”
Although still unclear on the details, Briley nodded.
“Alright, Dad.”
The following day, Sadie entered the company as usual, ready to tackle her daily tasks.
Suddenly, Samuel burst in, visibly anxious.
“Ms. Hudson, we have a serious problem. Our team slipped up, and Coyle exploited the situation.”
Sadie glanced up from her paperwork, brows knitting.
“What are you saying?”
Samuel’s face was grim. “Coyle quietly arranged for someone to dig into that night’s events.”
Sadie’s expression hardened.
The incident in the apartment–the one meticulously planned–why was Coyle prying into it now?
A ripple of unease passed through her.
Just then, a Wall Manor servant, guided in by the receptionist, stepped forward.
With a formal tone but clear authority, she said, “Ms. Hudson, the family elders request your presence at Wall Manor. They
have questions for you.”
Sadie quickly grasped the gravity of the situation–this confrontation was inevitable now.
Coyle had made his move swiftly.
Samuel’s concern deepened. “Ms. Hudson, this isn’t looking good-”
Sadie was composed and faintly smiling as she scanned the office. “Seems like there’s going to be a change in leadership
here.”
Samuel’s worry intensified. “You could be in danger!”
Sadie turned back to him with a calm smile. “Don’t worry, I’ll handle it.”
She followed the servant toward Wall Manor.
Outside the gates, the mood was tense. Many people had been denied entry, visibly displeased.
Isabel waited by the entrance. Catching sight of Sadie, she quickly approached, subtly signaling caution.
Sadie gave a slight nod, understanding the silent warning.
She knew full well today’s confrontation would be anything but easy.
