Chapter 1044
“Wilma, you''ve taken excellent care of the house these days. Thank you for your hard work.”
Justin wrapped his arm around Be’s waist, and the two stood
before Wilma, appearing like a newlywed couple returning from their
honeymoon.
They had an unspoken agreement not to tell Wilma about Justin’s severe injuries. Given her age, they did not want to worry her
unnecessarily, even after surviving such a harrowing experience.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
lan was carrying tworge food containers, sweat dripping from his
forehead as he entered.
“M-Mr. Salvador, | finally managed to secure the order from Fortune
Cloud Eatery you requestedst night!”
“Fortune Cloud Eatery? Gosh... That ce is notoriously diffic

Be swallowed nervously and then turned to Justin with a
reproachful look. “Why did you trouble Mr. Harris for this?”
“Because you were craving something delicious.”
“When did | say that?!”
“Last night, in your dreams,” Justin whispered in her ears, chuckling
softly.
Be blushed instantly, her face turning red. “Y-You believe in dream
talk?!”N?velDrama.Org content rights.
“Never mind that. Let''s set it on the table with Wilma and eat
together.” Justin nodded with a smile.
“Together?!”
lan was astonished, feeling honored yet surprised. He shook his head repeatedly. “That’s not necessary. | shouldn’t dine with you
at the
same table. It’s not appropriate.”
Justin replied, “Like | said, just eat.”
lan took a sharp breath inward, but his heart blossomed with joy.
He finally figured everything out. Justin and Be’s rtionship must have taken a significant leap after their trip to Terranova.
Justin would finally marry his long-time sweetheart, and Be
Officially established her ce in the family!
Around the dining table, everyone indulged in the sumptuous
At this moment, there was no distinction between employer and
employee. They were simply a close-knit family.
In fact, Wilma andn had already be like family to Justin ov
the years.
After the meal, Be and Wilma tidied up the kitchen, while Justin summonedn to the small living room for a discussion.
“Mr. Salvador, during your absence, a few issues arose at the Salvador Corporation,”n whispered, lowering his voice.
“Is it concerning the coboration with Journey Ventures from
Meridan?”
During this period, Justin had been in a state of unconsciousness and focused on recuperating.
Be kept a close eye on him, not wanting him to exert himself
further. Hence, she took his phone away while he was in the hospital, preventing him from contactingn immediately.
Due to this, Justin was unaware of what happened at the Salvador
Corporation.
“No issues have arisen. On the contrary, things have progressed very
smoothly.”
“Well, isn’t smooth progress a good thing?” Justin frowned. “But your demeanor suggests otherwise. Did something go wrong
with the
coboration?”
“The person in charge of the coboration isn’t Chairman Salvador.
It''s Mr. Grant.”
“M-My brother...?” Justin''s eyes narrowed, his heart tightening.
“Yes. In your absence, Mr. Grant represented you at the meeting

lan’s expression soured as he recalled the matter. He voiced some
discontent toward Grant. “He has

Justin’s expression turned serious.
