It was a past Justin could not bear to look back on.


    With his internal phone ringing. Justin took the call via loudspeaker What is it?”


    “Mr. Salvador, Ms. Thompson’s secretary wants to see you. He doesn’t have an appointment. Should I


    tell him to go?”


    “Tell him toe in,” Justin said aloofly..


    It was a challenge to score a meeting with the president of Salvador Corporation.


    However, Steven was one of Be’s employees, so Justin was happy. to give him the green light.


    Minutester, Steven stepped foot in the office with a stern look.


    “Ms. Be asked me to hand you this, Mr. Salvador.”


    While talking, Steven put a white box down on Justin’s desk.


    “What is it?” The man stared at the box without looking up.


    “A bomb,” Steven replied coldly.


    Justin pursed his lips.


    “Hey, do you think you’re funny?”


    Steven’s words dripped with sarcasm. “Why bother asking then, Mr.


    Salvador? It’s nothing dangerous. Just ept the gift from Ms. Be.”


    With pursed lips, Justin opened the box curiously.


    It was nothing dangerous, of course. There was a cream cake in the shape of a dog, and it was oddly


    adorable.


    He curled his lips.


    “Did Be make this?” Glee hid behind hisposed eyes.


    “Ha! Dream on. Ms. Be instructed me to buy the cake for you.”


    Steven said tauntingly with a smile, “Do you think you deserve to enjoy Ms. Be’s cooking?”


    Justin was speechless. His jawline was tense.


    “What’s that supposed to mean anyway? Ms. Thompson has cooked. for Mr. Salvador before. If Mr.


    Salvador didn’t deserve it, why would she endure it for three years?”n snapped back.


    Steven looked at Justin in disdain. “Anna Brown would even feed dogs, but Ms. Be won’t.”


    Livid,n was ready to pull a punch. “Take that back!”


    “Enough,n.”


    Justin stopped him and asked solemnly, “Why did Be give this to me?”


    “Ms. Be sent me to tell you that she has received the stuff that you delivered anonymously. This is


    her returning the favor.”


    Justin was dumbfounded. ‘So she knew? That was quick.”


    “She’s sending you a reminder not to treat her like a fool. She is intelligent and needs no dogged


    advice.”


    Without saying goodbye, Steven turned and walked out of the office.


    “Dogged advice? I hope she’s not talking about you.”


    There was no need forn to say it out loud.

    As Justin grew grimacing,n turned pale and backed up to the corner helplessly.
