Why does no content appear below this code snippet?

Hi,

In my posts I use various custom fields and everything works fine, except when I call the following field (see code below). Below this snippet on the front-end, no more content appears even though there should be more. When I delete this part, the content that should appear below works fine. I am not sure what is causing this but clearly it is something about this code or field?

The field ‘more’ is a Post Object where I select one or more pages that should be displayed as links in the front-end.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

$values = get_field('more');

    if (!empty($values)) {

				 echo	'<div class="container-btl"><div class="row">
				 <div class="col-md-4"></div>
				 <div class="col-md-8"><h2>'.$heading.'</h2>
				 <ul style="list-style:none;">';

				foreach( $values as $post) {
									setup_postdata($post);
				$fname = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'first_name', true);
				$lname = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'last_name', true);
				$link = get_permalink($post);
            }
				echo '<li><a href="'.$link.'" >'.$fname.' '.$lname.'</a></li>';
				echo '</ul></div></div></div>';
	} else {
        }

I checked the documentation again and using this code, it works:

$featured_posts = get_field('more');
if( $featured_posts ): ?>
	<div class="container-btl"><div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4"></div>
<div class="col-md-8"><h2><?php echo $heading; ?></h2>
<ul style="list-style:none;">
    <?php foreach( $featured_posts as $featured_post ):
        $permalink = get_permalink( $featured_post->ID );
        $title = get_the_title( $featured_post->ID );
        ?>
        <li>
            <a href="<?php echo esc_url( $permalink ); ?>"><?php echo esc_html( $title ); ?></a>

        </li>
    <?php endforeach; ?>
    </ul></div></div></div>
<?php endif; ?>
