"Ryan! Are you out of your mind? What on earth are you saying?!" Claire trembled with anger.

Logan locked eyes with Ryan, the tension rising as hostility filled the room. His greatest worries had become reality-this child was growing increasingly powerful, almost on the brink of surpassing him. Ryan was strong and capable, while Logan was getting old. He could no longer control his grandson. Liam had ambitions, but he lacked the ability. The future of the Hoffman family depended on Ryan. But Logan could not just back down like that. As the head of the family, being intimidated by his own grandson was a total humiliation.

At that moment, Liam's phone vibrated in his pocket. He impatiently took it out and glanced at it. His pupils contracted instantly, and he stepped outside to answer the call.

In the deserted corridor, Liam answered the call, "Hello, Zoe. What made you decide to call your uncle?"

"Because I miss you, Uncle Liam." Zoe's voice was exaggeratedly sweet, making him cringe.

"Ah, without you in Savrow, our home has lost much of its joy and laughter. Your grandfather and your mother miss you so much they can hardly eat." Liam lit a cigarette, squinting as he took a drag. "I also want to return to Grandpa and Mommy, but as you know, my brother hates me so much..."

Zoe suddenly broke into tears. "I'm all alone in Inalia... I can't even go home. It's like living in a nightmare! Uncle Liam... I just want to go home. I really miss Grandpa and Mommy..."

"I am also eager for you to return, but even your grandpa can't make this decision. It's up to your older brother."

Liam was well aware that their relationship was beyond repair, so he decided to provoke them.

"Earlier, Ryan told us he's going to marry Ms. Carrie from the Salvador family. Once they get married, there will be no place for me in the Hoffman Group. Even if I wanted to help you, there wouldn't be a way to do it."

Zoe fell silent for a moment, then spoke softly, "Uncle Liam, if I told you I could help you, could you find a way to help me return to Savrow?"

"You're able to help me? How?" Liam asked as he raised an eyebrow suspiciously, taking the opportunity to lay out his terms. "Can you stop Ryan from marrying that girl from the Salvador family? He's already announced it to the family. If your brother truly becomes Chairman Salvador's son-in-law... Zoe, things might get even tougher for you in the future."

"Uncle Liam, I can do it. But I have to be back in Savrow first," Zoe replied.

"With Ryan's impatience, he'd marry that girl tomorrow if it was possible. It might be too late by the time you return."

Zoe laughed and said, "Uncle, you shouldn't be against it. Right now, you should show complete support. Maybe you can convince Grandpa to approve of Ryan marrying Carrie."

Liam was confused and asked, "What are you talking about? Why?"

"I have my reasons for doing this." Zoe's voice turned cold and cryptic. "You handle this matter first. As for the rest, I have plans when I return to Savrow."
