The corners of Justin’s stiff lips tugged, and his ink-ck eyes fille with bitterness. “Isn’t Christopher by


    her side? At the very least, she has a band of brothers. Why should go and make her feel better? Am I


    that foolish?”


    Anxious for Justin’s situation,n blurted out, “Mr. Salvador! Your current position in Young Madam’s


    heart is not favorable! Being foolish is your only way out now! If you don’t act foolishly, Young Madam


    won’te back!”


    Beforen finished speaking, Justin shot him a cold nce.n was so startled that he choked on his


    saliva and coughed several times.


    “We are divorced. Once broken, a mirror can’t be mended. I have not intention of winning her back.”


    Justin felt suffocated in his chest. His voice was deep and hoarse, as if he swallowed all the bitterness


    in the world. “What is mine will not leave me. It’s pointless to chase after what is not mine. I have never


    regretted letting her go… Ever.”


    Shannon returned to Tideview Manor with a heart full of grievances. From the moment she entered,


    she burst into tears. She entered the study and clung to Gregory. Tears and snot flowed freely from her


    face.


    “Greg! How can Justin be so heartless? Bethany is his sister! It’s already too much that he’s not helping


    her. How can he dismiss Bethany from her position? How will she hold her head up in thepany


    from now on?! He wants to establish a dictatorship in thepany. He wants to control everything.


    After bing president, he looks down on you more!”


    “I gave the order to dismiss her.” Gregory felt irritated and pushed her away slowly. “I made Justin


    dismiss Bethany.” Strangely, in the past, Shannon’s tears had always been effective on him. But now,


    seeing her cry made him ufortable. He just wanted to find a quiet ce to be alone.


    During such moments, he couldn’t help but unconsciously think about. Justin’s mother. She was


    inherently a cold and stubborn woman. She had never shed a tear for him, nor had she looked at him


    with affection and indulgence like Shannon did.


    For most of his life, Gregory’s greatest regret was never truly conquering Justin’s mother. Shannon


    appeared during that most sensitive period and fulfilled his vanity as a man and his desire to conquer a


    woman.


    If only she had yielded to him back then, would their rtionship have reached such a point?

    Gregory knew he loved Justin’s mother. Perhaps even more than she loved him.


    “Greg… What are you saying?” Shannon lifted her tear-swollen face, and her eyes were filled with


    astonishment.


    “With this matter at hand, how can I support her in holding onto the position? If I forcefully support her,


    what about my dignity as the chairman? What about the prestige? How will the outside world view the


    Salvador Corporation?” Gregory’s tone was icy, and he clearly felt unhappy.


    Shannon asked tearfully, “Is our child important, or is the chairman’s reputation more important?”


    “I am Bethany’s father.” Gregory turned away and pinched the bridge of his nose. “But I am also at the


    helm of the Salvador Corporation! You can pamper the child limitlessly, but I cannot disregard the entire


    company!”


    “Greg! How can you say such things? Have you grown tired of me?! Don’t you love me anymore?!” In a


    moment of anger, Shannon asked a foolish question, one that many men find most repulsive.


    “Now Wyatt has made it clear that he will stand by Be to the end, and we will likely face a legal battle.


    I am swamped with work right now, and I am in no mood to argue with you about these matters!


    Instead of crying and making a scene here, why don’t you focus on disciplining your own daughter!”


    Filled with resentment, Gregory abruptly stood up, causing Shannon to tumble onto the sofa.


    “Do you know how much trouble Bethany has caused over the years? I wiped her bottom when she


    was little. Now, she’s 25. Do I still need to clean up her mess?”


    Shannon shivered in fear. “Greg…”


    “I just don’t understand. Both are my flesh and blood. But why is Mary’s child so reassuring? Over the


    years, Justin has managed thepany in such an orderly fashion that it has surpassed the Iverson.


    Group, which has always been on par with us. His achievements are remarkable! But what about you?


    What can your children do besides causing trouble for the family? Stop running around recklessly and


    stay home to reflect on yourself.”


    After saying this, Gregory decisively left the room. With a bang, the door was mmed shut. Shannon’s


    eyes were now crimson and filled with angry and sorrowful tears, which rolled down her cheeks.


    “Mary?! So, you still can’t forget that damn bitch! Haha… But even if you can’t forget, so what? In the


    end, she still died in my hands, dead without peace.”


    Shannon was crying andughing at the same time, like a mentally unsound person. She remembered


    the words Justin said to her in the meeting earlier today, and it fueled her anger even more.


    “Mary, it’s not enough that you’re dead… I want your most beloved son to be ruined as well!”
