Chapter 200:
Glancing at him, Conroy felt a headache coming on as he remembered the investigation he’d ordered. With a cold expression, he asked, “Who told you to go after the position of CEO p>
Jewell, who had been silent, suddenly panicked. “Nobody told me that. I wanted it myself p>
“Do you really think I’m as stupid as you are?” Conroy snapped, driving his cane straight into Jewell’s wounded arm.
Jewell screamed in pain, startling Conroy. But Conroy’s tone remained cold as he said, “Were you behind Wyatt’s car accident p>
Those words left Jewell thunderstruck, his eyes going wide with shock. He forgot about the pain for a moment and looked at Conroy in disbelief. “No, Dad, do you honestly believe I could do something like that p>
Years of reading people had made Conroy an expert at sniffing out lies, and this time, he believed Jewell was telling the truth. He felt the tension leave his chest, though his voice stayed sharp. “You do realize that aside from Rory, Wyatt is also your son, right p>
Hearing that, Jewell clamped his mouth shut, shame written all over his face. He had always disliked Della; her assertiveness clashed with the kind of quiet compliance he liked in women. So he didn’t like Della’s son either; Wyatt’s personality was even more domineering than Della’s.

Wyatt was secretly transferred to Kretol City Hospital. Worry etched itself deeper across Amelia’s face as she watched him lying in bed, motionless. Marc had warned her that each day spent in a coma made waking up less likely. Wyatt had been in a coma for four days now.
Sitting at his bedside, Amelia talked softly, replaying everything that had happened lately, just in case it might stir something inside him. The silence that followed pressed down on her, making her heart sink. Just then, a sudden knock at the door snapped her out of her thoughts, and she quickly composed herself.
After getting Amelia’s permission, Davin stepped inside. “We’ve got new information about that account p>
Amelia’s head snapped up as she turned to face him.
“It belongs to a blacklisted user at a multinational bank. Our IT traced the login back to Kretol. We’re closing in on the exact IP—just need a little more time p>
Hearing this, Amelia finally exhaled, tension easing just a bit.
Davin then asked, “Mrs. Stewart, have you thought about what you’ll do regarding Summit Capital p>
Given only a week by Conroy, Amelia felt that landing the Summit Capital deal was almost impossible.
Marc entered the room at that moment, having caught part of their exchange. His voice wavered with uncertainty. “I happen to know someone pretty close with Summit Capital’s CEO, but p>
“But what? Tell me!” Amelia’s eyes lit up with hope at Marc’s words, and she couldn’t help but press for an answer.
“It’s Kelsey Finch. You know her p>
Amelia blinked. Kelsey? Of all people, why did it have to be her?
