"That's enough. Say no more. Since he dares to act this way, he needs a lesson to remind him that the Lennons and Lennon Group can manage perfectly well without him," Xylos declared, turning to Jack.

"Jack, tomorrow, I want you to step in and take over Peter's responsibilities at the company. And Jamie… You're to assist Jack. Understood?"

"I…" Jamie began, but Ari shot him a look.

"Thank you, Grandpa. Jamie has been working hard recently and will fully support Uncle Jack so that he can adjust quickly to Lennon Group's operations."

Though Jamie was not thrilled about it, he knew what to say in situations like these and what to hold back. He disliked Jack, but he disliked Peter even more.

The idea of Peter being dismissed gave Jamie some satisfaction. He had spent considerable time at Lennon Group, yet he was always overshadowed by Peter—a fact that left him deeply unsettled.

Meanwhile, Ari's gaze remained fixed on Jack. She was unable to look away.

Frustrated, Jamie said, "Great-Grandpa, Riley and the baby are tired, so I'd like to take them home."

"Go on," Xylos replied. He was still very fond of Jamie.

Once Jamie's family left, Ari had no reason to stay.
