Chapter 1610:
Hamilton looked skeptical. “You're just taking Cedric’s side. What could possibly be more important than my own
grandchild?”
Daniela’s voice was steady. “There are much bigger concerns. For one, let's not even argue about whether this
baby belongs to the McCoy family. Think about what would happen if you ended up with nothing at all.”
Hamilton let out a derisive laugh. “Me? With nothing? Please. I'm Hamilton McCoy, and poverty has never
touched me.”
Daniela didn’t reply right away. Instead, she adjusted her laptop and turned the screen his way.

“How did you get your hands on the latest McCoy Group financials?” Hamilton's eyes widened.
On a second monitor, a live feed showed McCoy Group's largest business partner arriving at the building.
Hamilton's brow furrowed in confusion. “Isn’t that Maximo Wagner? Wasn't he out of the country? Why is he
suddenly showing up at McCoy Group?”
Daniela tapped a finger against the spreadsheet. “Take a look. Do you notice anything unusual?”
The tension that had filled Hamilton just moments earlier drained away as he took a seat and leaned in,
scanning the rows of numbers on her screen.
These documents were supposed to land in his inbox.
Hamilton had never truly doubted McCoy Group's stability or Josh’s loyalty. But now, to his surprise, he saw a
glaring red flag in an area he’d never thought to check.
Years of business acumen kicked in, and Hamilton instantly knew something was very wrong. Stripping off his
apron, he muttered under his breath, “I'd better see to this myself. If McCoy Group goes down, there won't be
anything left for my grandson.”
On the drive over to McCoy Group, Hamilton dialed a few members of the McCoy family for backup.

Brad answered first. “Maximo’s back? He's at McCoy Group? Everything must be legit then, right? Wait—you're
saying the numbers are off?”
Jules chimed in. “I was just wondering about those weird figures. None of the reports made sense. The shift is
tic.”
Ethan was more cautious. “Should we maybe wait until Maximo leaves before bringing this up to Josh? It might
put him in an awkward spot if we question him in front of outsiders. Really, though, Josh wouldn't do anything
shady—we’re family. Let's just hold tight for now.”
The others seemed content with that plan.
Hamilton, though, felt the weight of looming disaster. “If we delay any longer, McCoy Group will go bankrupt.”
Brad waved off Hamilton's worries. “Con, Hamilton, you're reading too much into it. Josh has always looked
out for us.”
Jules chimed in. “That's right! Josh is one of the good ones. What kind of people would we be if we started
doubting him now?”
