“Since I was little, Justin has always been very good to me. He cared for me and looked after me. In my


    heart, Justin is the most important person.” Zoe wiped away her tears.


    She said in between sobs, “When I heard about his identst night, I couldn’t sleep the whole night.


    I wanted toe overst night, but Ryan wouldn’t let me, and I was afraid of causing trouble for you


    all. I should have been more sensible. I should havee earlier. Maybe I could have helped in some


    way.”


    “Ah, good child, you have a kind heart.” Gregory sighed. He looked at


    Zoe approvingly.


    “Thank you for your concern for Justin. You two must have been close when you were little.”


    “Not only when we were little. Justin and I are still very close now.


    Zoe blushed shyly. “As long as Justin needs me, I’ll always be there.”


    Even to someone clueless, they could understand the intention behind her statement.


    Ryan’s handsome face did not look pleasant. Leaving aside other matters, Zoe revealed her admiration


    for Justin in front of the


    Salvador family without restraint. Doing so undermined her status as the youngdy of the Hoffman


    family.


    “Ash, does Ms. Hoffman have feelings for Justin as well?” Wyatt was also quite a gossip, nudging


    Asher with his elbow as he watched the scene.


    Asher bluntly replied, “It seems so.”


    Wyatt squinted his eyes with a suspicious look. “And what about Justin? Does he show any interest in


    Ms. Hoffman?”


    “As far as I know, no.” Asher did not intend to speak positively for Justin. However, after multiple


    encounters and shes, he had seen through Justin’s character.


    The man was like a single-celled organism. When he liked Rosalind, she was the center of his


    attention. Not even the ethereal Be could sway him. Now that Justin hade to his senses and had


    a newfound rity, he dedicated his life to Be.


    “I don’t understand what these young girls are thinking. What’s so great about that punk? Why do they


    all flock to him like bees to honey?” Wyatt sneered disapprovingly.


    He muttered, “Meanwhile, my sons are still single. Take a look. Which one of my sons isn’t as


    handsome as Justin? Which one of them isn’t as cool as him? The Hoffman family has a good


    background too.


    Since they have a daughter, she might as well be with my sons. Asher why don’t you give it a try and


    win her over?”


    Asher’s heart tightened. His gaze flickered as he said, “I don’t like women.”


    “What? What did you say?” Wyatt raised an eyebrow.


    “I mean, Ms. Hoffman is not my type.” Asher cleared his throat, smiling subtly. “Can’t you see that Ms.


    Hoffman already has someone she likes? Don’tplicate things and make it difficult for her.”


    “I don’t know what sins I’vemitted. Not a single one of my sons. is like me. They are all busy with


    their careers and not interested in finding a wife.” Wyatt sighed and shook his head, giving up on the


    idea.


    “Ms. Hoffman, I appreciate that you still care about my grandson due to your past connections. I


    acknowledge your kindness, but please leave.” Nigel’s attitude toward Zoe was indifferent.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    There was no smile on his face. After all, Justin had not yet passed the critical period, so Nigel had no


    energy to deal with outsiders.


    “I heard… Justin got injured while protecting Ms. Thompson.” Zoe finally had the opportunity to gain


    favor with the elders of the Salvador family. She was unwilling to just leave like this and said tearfully, “I


    want to do something for Justin. Let me stay here and pray for him. I won’t leave until Justin wakes up.”


    “No need, Ms. Hoffman.” Nigel managed a faint smile, still maintaining a gentle tone toward the young


    human intervention and science.”
