The event hall was filled with the sound of music andughter.
Bathing in the spotlight in the heart of the hall, the Reeds enjoyed the attention of all their guests.
Those from Salvador Corporation and the Hoffman Group stared at Wilson Reed nervously.
This project would pull the Hoffman Group out of the red, while it would help Salvador Corporation
reach new heights and get one up on Be.
Wyatt kept a stoic face. Sure, he was interested in the project, but nothing was more important than
finding his daughter.
He wondered where Be had wandered off. Wyatt hoped Be was not snuggling up with Justin in a
corner somewhere.
Wyatt''s face turned hot when many R-rated images popped into his mind.
He was not a conservative old man, and Be was once Justin''s wife. Wyatt was grateful Be did not
get pregnant when she was living with Justin in Savrow behind his back. Still, Wyatt felt there was a
time and ce for thrill-seeking.
However, Wyatt soon realized his docile and sensible daughter, Amelia, was missing too.
Amid his confusion, a couple showed up.
"Dad."
"Chairman Thompson."
Wyatt looked at them with a smile.
For some reason, he was proud to see that his daughter and Justin only had eyes for each other.
Wyatt did not use to take to Justin before, but thetter was growing on him.
"Where were you?" Wyatt moaned.

As Be looked upset, Wyatt was concerned. "What''s the matter? Are you ill? I''ll get Ash and Quentin
to take you to the hospital."
Be shook her head with a scowl. "I''m fine."
"Where''s Ash? I just called him. Why isn''t he here yet?"
"Ash has an emergency to sort out. He''ll be hereter." Be''s tone was t.
Wyatt furrowed his brows. "What about Amelia? I didn''t see her anywhere."
Justin''s eyes were chilling, and his jawline tensed. Be narrowed her eyes on Lance.
"Hahaha. Oh, Wyatt. Did you forget? Amelia was hitting it off with Charles on the dance floor. I think
they might find the business event boring, so they went to a quiet spot to spend some time together."
Lance added with a smile, "Amelia is the quietest girl among her siblings. I was surprised she had a lot
to talk about with Charles. I guess they must see something in each other."
"Ha." Be scoffed, thickening the air with awkwardness.
Lance froze. Not wanting things to be tense between both families, he forced a smile and asked, "You
seem upset, Be. Who upset you?"
"Chairman Iverson, my sister clearly doesn''t see anything romantic in your crippled son. Are you too
old to see that?" Be''s squinted eyes were scary.
The smile on Lance''s face froze as rage took over.
Be was insolent in his eyes.
Lance believed her arrogance came from Wyatt indulging her and Christopher and Justin giving her all
the attention. She must think she was all that, having wrapped her finger around the two most eligible
bachelors in Savrow.
"Why are you being rude to Lance, Be? Mind your manners," Wyatt chided Be. She appeared to
have a problem with the Iversons.
"Sigh... Don''t say that, Wyatt. I don''t want my goddaughter to be hurt."
Lance acted with grace, and his tone carried gratitude. "If it weren''t for Be, Charles might not be able
to walk again. Either way, my family is grateful to Be. You can''t say that about my family''s savior."
