What Be wanted most was for Justin to vanish from her life
altogether.
Although it wasn’t verified, the evidence that Ryan brought up carried
considerable weight as circumstantial evidence.
The situation suddenly became moreplicated.
Fortunately, only members of the Salvador and Hoffman families

were present.
If these allegations were made public, Zoe’s reputation would have beenpletely ruined.
After all, as Zoe’s elder brother, Ryan couldn’t be so heartless.
Since they couldn’t reach an agreement and Ryan was unwilling to budge, Logan had no choice but to
leave and investigate further at
home.
Logan stood up, leaning on his cane for support, and said, “Ryan, Zoe! Both of you,e with me!”
“Leaving already, Old Master Logan? Did you finalize your granddaughter’s marriage?”
clear voice echoed through the room as Be descended the stairs with a smile. She moved with such
grace and confidence, almost as if
she owned this manor.
Her presence seemed to even overshadow Shannon, who was the actualdy of the house.
Shannon’s expression turned sour once more.
“Well, I’m sure you must have plenty to catch up on with Mr. Salvador. We won’t disturb you any longer,
Ms. Thompson,” Logan said, clearly displeased. Be’s unexpected appearance had disrupted their
ns.
Be said with a smile, “Oh, Mr. Logan, don’t get the wrong idea. I have nothing to talk about with Mr.
Salvador. He was just throwing a fit. After all, he has never talked to me during our 3 years of marriage.
Despite being married to him for 3 years, I never quite understood
what was going on in his mind.”
Hearing Be openly admit her past identity as Justin’s ex-wife,
Logan was stunned and speechless.
Having just entered the room, Justin overheard her words, and his
face darkened with frustration. ‘Damn it, why does it seem like I can
never do anything right in her eyes?’
“Mrs. Salvador, shall we have a chat?” Be’s tone was cold as she
looked at Shannon.
“Sorry, Ms. Thompson, it’ste and I need to rest. I don’t have time to
chat with you. Let’s discuss this another day.” Shannon was hesitant,
as she was aware of Be’s intentions.
“You may not have time, but I do. I have plenty of free time.” Be raised her eyebrows, smiling
confidently as she approached everyone. “The night is young, and we can discuss our matters
slowly. I’ll keep youpany until dawn.”
Shannon’s expression darkened, her attitude bing firm. “I’m old and can’t keep up with you.
Please leave!”
Justin and Ryan both changed their expressions, their fists clenc When it came to Be being
mistreated, they were united in their stance. They could discuss anything, but seeing her bullied was
absolutely uneptable.
“I wanted to talk with you privately. After all, family matters should stay within the family. But since
you’re being unreasonable, don’t me me if I speak my mind.” Be’s smile faded, reced with a
chilling re in her eyes. “At thest birthday banquet, when Aunt Celeste was attacked by the
assant and Mr. Salvador was seriously injured, you must have had something to do with it, right?”
Everyone was stunned, their gaze involuntarily turning to Shannon.
The Hoffmans, who were about to leave, paused at Be’s words,
attention piqued.
“Ms. Thompson, you were once my daughter-inw. I know you don’t like me, but do you have to be so
cruel?” Shannon’s heart raced. Her palms were covered in sweat, but she forced herself to stay calm.
“Alright, alright… Then let me rephrase it.” Be smiled again, but it was sinister. “The assant who
attempted to harm Aunt Celeste and ended up seriously injuring Mr. Salvador is someone you know.
Isn’t that right, Mrs. Salvador?”
