“In my opinion, we should let Justin marry Zoe.” Liamzily sat on the
sofa, casually picked up an orange from the tray, and began to peel it.
Logan’s thick, gray eyebrows shot up suddenly. Zoe, who was still hiding in her grandfather’s embrace,
smiled slyly when she heard Liam’s suggestion.
“The eldest son of the Salvador family is sickly. He is hardly suited to
inherit the family business. Although Justin is an illegitimate child
with a somewhat questionable background, sooner orter, the
Salvador family will fall into Justin’s hands. If Zoe marries him, she’ll
be the young madam of the Salvador family, which isn’t such a
bad arrangement after all.” Liam crossed his legs and casually
popped a slice of orange into his mouth.
“Uncle! What are you talking about…?” Zoe asked nervously, her
cheeks flushing.
“I’ve given it some thought. We could say that Zoe and Justin have
been in a rtionship for some time, but both families kept it private
to avoid public attention. Since both of them are unmarried, it’s perfectly normal for them to spend
some private time together in a hotel room. There’s no need for the public to overreact. Look at how
scared Zoe is!”
Liam, who owned an entertainmentpany and a public rtions firm, was highly skilled at managing
public image and reputation.
“Uncle Liam, your ability to improvise and spin stories is very impressive. As your nephew, I aspire to
learn from you.” Ryan
remarked sarcastically as he entered the study. His imposing
presence filled the room with an intimidating aura.
“Ryan…” Zoe’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly soughtfort in Logan’s embrace.
The smile on Liam’s face froze for a moment. He identally crushed the orange in his hand into a
pulp. “My dear nephew, are you
in a bad mood? You always seem to find joy in teasing your uncle
whenever you see me.”
“Ryan, mind your manners when speaking to your elders,” Logan
scolded, his tone tinged with irritation.

Ryan’s handsome face was cold as he faced Liam. His smile was both mocking and dangerously
attractive. He sneered. “Since you became the CEO, you have expanded the business widely. Now
you’re even interfering in the affairs of the household. Uncle Liam, are you trying to act as a father
figure because you don’t have children of
your own?”
Liam seethed with anger, and his eyes reddened. He had been
haunted by the curse of being childless. Although he med his wif
for being barren, the reality was that he was infertile. Despite his anger, he could only suppress his
rage in front of Logan.
“Ryan! How dare you speak to your uncle like that? You’re being too
disrespectful!” Logan pped the armrest of the sofa.
“Grandpa, I was just teasing Uncle Liam. He’s always cherished me
the most since I was little. How could he bear to be angry with me?” Ryan immediately put on a childish
look, smiling yfully at Liam.
Liam still wore a smile on his face, but in his mind, he had already
cursed his nephew to death.
“As for Zoe’s marriage, you don’t need to worry about it, Uncle Liam. I will find her a suitable husband,
but one thing is for certain-it will never be Justin.” Ryan’s words hung heavily, and the atmosphere in
the room became tense.
Zoe’s smug expression faded into gloom.
“Ryan, your words baffle me. If Zoe doesn’t marry Mr. Salvador, then
who will she marry?”
Liam’s expression turned serious, saying, “Things have escted to this point. If the Salvador family
rejects Zoe, it will tarnish our family’s reputation. Are you saying that your sister is merely cheap
entertainment for Mr. Salvador? Does he think that we are chumps?”
