“I’ll make this rascal cook you breakfast tomorrow and prepare your
bath tonight! Matt can take a rest for two days, so Justin will handle
all the household chores!”
Justin pursed his lips, his brows twitching.
He could prepare her bathwater, but cooking? Nigel must have
thought he had too much time to live.
“Grandpa Nigel, I…” Be hesitated, her eyes flickering.
Just as she tried to form her words, Christopher suddenly stepped
forward. His lips curled up, forming a gentle smile that the older generation would love. “Old Master
Nigel, I’m afraid Be can’t
apany you tonight.”
“Why?” Nigel frowned.
Christopher sighed, looking at Be’s weary face with affection and distress. “Be performed a
challenging surgery on my brother today
and stood for almost ten hours. She was exhausted and almost
fainted when she came out of the operating room.”
“What?!” Nigel was stunned and leaned forward.
Justin was also shocked, his heart twisting.
How unreasonable and unbelievable! A mix of emotions made
Justin’s gazeplicated.
It turned out that she had just performed a major surgery. No wonder
she looked tired. Herplexion was not great either, as if she were
sick.
Justin’s jaw stiffened, and his lips slowly parted.
He wanted to say something, but his words were stuck in his throat,
and he could not get them out.
What was he feeling awkward about? Why was he hesitating?
“So I’m going to bring Be home now. My house is further down the road from Be’s vi, so we’ll go
together.”
Christopher hovered his arms around Be’s shoulder without directly touching her, showing his
gentlemanly side in front of the Salvadors.” Old Master Nigel, I know you like Be and care about her.
But Be divorced Justin. Even an outsider like me thinks it’s inappropriate for her to live in your house
under the same roof as Justin. If you really care about Be, you should’ve considered her feelings a
bit more.”
His words were humble and calm, but they lit a fire in Nigel’s heart Even Justin’s eyes were filled with
anger.
How dare this brat speak to him like this? How dare he be so
arrogant?!
Justin frowned and was about to retort with a cold face when Be said, “Chris, Grandpa Nigel is my
family. Everything he does is for my sake. Don’t say such words again.”
“Oh! Old Master Nigel! I didn’t expect to meet you here. What a
coincidence!”
The crowd nced at the source of the voice. It was Lance, hurrying
toward them with his secretary.

A trace of surprise shed across Be’s eyes.
Chairman Iverson was just crying over his beloved son bing disabled not long ago, yet here he is
now, talking andughing like a
different person.
Be could understand it. After all, the Salvadors and Iversons were
business rivals, so Lance would never show his fragile side in front of
his enemy.
“Lance, I heard about Charles’ ident. Is he okay?” Nigel asked with
concern.
“Charles got into a car crash. At first, his situation was not
optimistic.”
Lance turned around and looked at Be gratefully. “But Be’s magical hands had helped Charles
through his hardship! Others may not know how to cherish her, but that’s not something I can do
anything about. Be is a lucky star for the Iverson family! I’m good. friends with Wyatt, so I naturally
treat Be as my own daughter!”
