The Walker family's fall from grace meant that every elite circle that had once eyed Eltham with interest now steered clear, fearing the backlash.

In Craneville, it was common knowledge that Eltham had little patience for such matters.

Brittany, pregnant and overwhelmed, found herself unable to juggle the demands of the company.

Yuri, barely recovered from a severe illness, was pushing himself to manage the sprawling Lynette Conglomerate.

Holden, eager to ease his brother's burden, hesitated, wary of Yuri's reaction. After much deliberation, he chose to follow Yuri's wishes and keep to his own lane. Saskia Lynette, fuming, confronted her brother, "You know Brittany's practically royalty now, and dad still won't acknowledge you. Doesn't that tick you off?" "That's dad's call to make."

Holden believed Yuri was right; after all, he wasn't a blood Lynette. "Quit scheming, Saskia. Focus on your own stuff. If you stir trouble, I'll be the first to come after you!" Saskia stormed off, muttering about Holden's blind loyalty. Barely a few steps away, a car blocked her path.
