Meanwhile, Jamie wrestles with mounting pressure as the new administration and Market Equities attempt to consolidate power. His conflict with Beth intensifies, with both siblings vying for control of the Yellowstone Ranch. Beth remains resolute, leveraging her strategic alliances to counter Jamie’s maneuvers.
