Chapter 388

• Voices of protest filled the hall as murmurs of dissatisfaction spread among the guests. No one was particularly concerned about who would ultimately control the Stone Family; their primary concern was the security of their own interests. While it was true that Sam had the legitimacy of birth, only Gavin had the proven ability to generate wealth and elevate the Stone Corporation to greater heights.
• Despite the growing discontent, Levi remained composed. His expression was unreadable as he spoke in a measured tone. "I understand everyone's concerns. It is true that Gavin has demonstrated exceptional business acumen, but his health is a major issue. Managing an empire requires resilience and undivided attention, which he simply cannot provide in his current condition. It would be irresponsible to entrust the future of the Stone Family to someone who lacks the physical strength to sustain it."
• Pausing for a moment, he let his words sink in before adding with a sigh, "Furthermore, Gavin made an inexplicable decision during the recent land auction. After aggressively bidding up to 15 billion, he suddenly withdrew at the last moment. This misstep has cost Stone Corporation a valuable asset. As the head of this family, such an error is unacceptable. It calls into question whether he truly possesses the foresight and stability required for leadership."
