Part 6/8:
As the story progresses, we find Ashley igniting her entrepreneurial spirit, rallying her efforts to position herself as a partner with Liam, a local who shares her passion and offers to help invest in the ranch. Their budding partnership symbolizes not just a business venture but a chance for Ashley to confront her emotions surrounding the ranch and address the looming sale with a sense of agency.
The powerful moment when Susan reveals her own hidden aspirations to help Ashley succeed strengthens their bond. Not only does Susan embrace the idea of potentially aiding her daughter financially, but she also begins to see the ranch from a new perspective—its assets as not just a physical structure, but a vessel to manifest dreams that span generations.
