Charles red at him. “Do you mean that I gave him the chance to


    humiliate me?”


    “No! Please don’t take my words wrongly. I’m just feeling indignant


    for you! After all, you’re the one appointed by Chairman Iverson to marry Ms. Be!” Cold beads


    formed on the secretary’s forehead.


    “I don’t need you to feel indignant on my behalf. I need ideas!” Charles was so agitated that he started


    breathing irregrly, and his hand


    trembled.


    Seeing this, the secretary hastily brought a new ss and filled it with


    whiskey. Charles drank it in one gulp, slowly calming down.


    Who would have thought that the graceful and well-mannered man


    was actually a manic man who needed alcohol to numb his nerves


    and could not control his emotions?


    “If that guy made you mad, you should return the favor. At least, you


    shouldn’t let him have a smooth and happy date with Ms. Be,” the


    secretary said in a low voice.


    Charles’ eyes lit up as if he were inspired. After pondering for a


    moment, he hooked his fingers at the secretary.


    “I have an idea. Go and handle it for me now.”


    Unable to contact Be or get information from Asher, Justin was on

    “Mr. Salvador, the chairman has an important social event ongoing

    As the president’s secretary,n was always reliable on important matters. “You are the president and


    the heir appointed by Chairman Salvador. You need to attend such events to show that you are well

    “Do you think it’s wrong for me to care about her?” Justin’s brows scrunched together.


    “In the past, I worked like a tireless and rigid robot. I had a wife, but


    never took her seriously. At that time, nothing was more important than work to me. I felt that if I lost my

    everything.”


    Justin closed his eyes slowly. “After Be left, I finally realized that I


    was nothing without her by my side… Everything I possessed had

    So what if he stood at the top of the social pyramid?


    He still felt the pain of losing the woman he loved the most.


    “Mr. Salvador, how can you say this? You’ve always told me that you strive to stand at the top even if


    there’s no one up there with you because you need the power to protect the people around you. You

    Justin’s eyshes fluttered.


    Thinking of his mother’s tragic death, he felt suffocated, the pain in his heart overwhelmingly clear.
