Chapter 8 - Reclaiming the Legacy
A month later, a grand press conference was held at the Coleman Enterprises international headquarters.
Hundreds of reporters, photographers, and television crews filled the grand ballroom. Cameras flashed incessantly as Richard Coleman took the podium, flanked by his wife Isabelle, who held a healthy, smiling baby Ethan in her arms.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Richard's voice echoed through the speaker system. "Today, I am not here to talk about stocks or quarterly profits. I am here to announce a restoration of truth and justice."
Richard gestured to the side of the stage. Dr. Henry Vance walked out, dressed in a sharp silver suit, accompanied by Leo, who wore a clean, dark blue suit tailored specifically for him.
"Twelve years ago, our industry lost one of its greatest minds to corruption and deceit," Richard announced to the crowd. "Dr. Henry Vance's pioneering work in pediatric medicine was stolen, and his name was dragged through the dirt. Today, the board of directors has officially exonerated Dr. Vance of all past charges!"
The room erupted into applause.
"Furthermore," Richard continued, his voice thick with emotion, "we are establishing the Vance-Coleman Pediatric Foundation, backed by a five-hundred-million-dollar endowment. Dr. Henry Vance will serve as the Lifetime Chairman, overseeing free, state-of-the-art medical treatment for children from low-income families."

Richard turned his gaze toward Leo.
