Justin slowly lifted his deep eyes, a glint of darkness shing. “I have tolerated him up to my limits. But
this is thest time. I won’t tolerate it again.”
Nigel’s heart was filled with bimerness Memories that he could not bear to remember yed vividly
before his eyes. His weathered face was covered in the mncholy haze of sadness.
“Grandpa, I’m sorry. I spoke without thinking. I shouldn’t have brought up your heartbreaking past.”
Justin felt a sense of quilt in his heam and grasped his grandfather’s rough and dry hands tightly with
his warm palms. “I know that if it
weren’t for that incident, your preferred her would surely have been
my elder brother. He grew up under your affectionate care, the
grandson you ced great expectations on.”
“Justin…”
“Grandpa, I owe you and Grant.”
Justin felt a tingling sensation in his nose and smiled gently.

Outside the door, Be eavesdropped with her ear pressed against the door. She was fully engrossed
in listening to the conversation between Nigel and Justin.”
Although she had good hearing, the soundproofing of the luxurious mansion’s door made it
challenging. She struggled to catch the conversation clearly.
Justin’s voice was like a mosquito buzzing, but Nigel’s voice
resonated with vigor. Be managed to pick up bits and pieces of
what he said.
“Justin’s elder brother? Back then? What happened back then? It sounds like something happened.”
During Be’s three years at the Salvador’s residence, she had never seen Grant, Justin’s eldest
brother.
However, she had heard from Wilma that Grant was in poor health and spent the years recuperating in
Meridan.
Even the position as the family heir that originaaliy belonged to Grant was conceded to his half-brother.
