ustomed to a life of luxury and privilege since he was born, Gregory had never experienced such
humiliation and indignity before.
Besides, it happened right in front of his son!
Thispletely shattered his pride, and he felt utterly humiliated.
"I''ll smack some conscience into you!"
Nigel was about to pick up the purple y teapot and throw it but was promptly stopped by his
secretary, Matt. "Please calm down, Old Master!"
Gregory covered his head injury, gritting his teeth in fury. "Instead of favoring your own blood, you
chose to favor Wyatt''s daughter, turning a blind eye to our family''s interests! You seem to have lost
your senses entirely! Wyatt and his daughter are constantly going against the Salvadors. At the
banquet, they even snatched away the Journey Ventures'' multibillion-dor equestrian hotel project
from us! If it weren''t for the KS Group''s interference, that project would''ve belonged to the Salvador
Corporation!"
Not content with justining to Nigel, Gregory turned his head and pointed usingly at Justin.
"And you! Instead of supporting your own family''s business, you''ve gone as far as to act as a
matchmaker for the Thompsons, arranging cooperation between the KS Group and the Reeds! Your
elder brother is far away in Meridan, unwell, but he still knows how to contribute to the family! And you,
for the sake of a woman, gave up on our family''s interests! As thepany''s CEO, this is a serious
dereliction of duty! You must bear full responsibility for the failure of this cooperation!"
Justin''s eyes were like dim stars buried at the bottom of a well. His voice was heavy with emotion. "But
that''s not the only responsibility I have to bear, right?” Gregory was startled. "What?"
"I openly opposed your n for me to marry into the Hoffman family. Surely, you haven''t forgotten that,
right?"
The man''s dark, chilling gaze sent shivers down one''s spine. "Didn''t you say that if I didn''t agree to
marry Zoe Hoffman, you''d kick me out of the Salvador family? Now, with the Hoffmans in trouble and
Zoe exposing Be''s miscarriage in front of everyone, tarnishing her reputation and stirring up trouble,
are you conveniently avoiding the marriage proposal to steer clear of the scandal?"
Matt was deeply rmed, and his back was soaked in cold sweat.
How could this be possible?!
Almost no one knew about Be''s miscarriage, so how did Zoe find out?!
"Justin... Y-You!" Gregory was infuriated by his son''s revtion.
"Marriage?! To that wretched girl from the Hoffman family?!"
Upon hearing this, Nigel nearly lost his grip on the purple y teapot, trembling with rage. "Gregory!
Are you out of your mind?! You''re rejecting someone as excellent and filial as Anna and instead letting
Justin marry that conniving wench?! She exposed the miscarriage incident just to sabotage Justin''s
rtionship with Anna! How disgusting and malicious is that? And you still want Justin to marry her?!
Why don''t you marry her yourself?!"
"Father!"
"I can overlook your poor judgment of character and your shamelessness. But don''t even think about
leading my grandson down your path!"
Nigel''s eyes widened in fury. Despite his age, they remained sharp as ever. "And don''t you dare try to
shift the me for the lost project on my grandson or tarnish Anna''s reputation! Even though I wasn''t at
this year''s horse racing event, I know what happened! The Hoffmans tampered with the Thompsons''
horse. Yet, Anna still achieved an outstanding first ce in thepetition! She earned her opportunity
through her own efforts. You can''t just tarnish and manipte her reputation with just a few words!"
"Grandpa..." Justin''s chest heaved with stifled breaths, his eyes reddening with emotion.
As always, Nigel continued to care, trust, and support Be.
It was the same three years ago, and it remains so today.
Back then, Nigel repeatedly reminded him to treat Be well, emphasizing that she was an exceptional
girl worth cherishing. Yet, what did Justin do?

He ruined everything, absolutely everything.
"In any case... My granddaughter-inw can only be Anna! Apart from Anna, I want no one else!"
Nigel reaffirmed his stance firmly, leaving no room for debate. "If Justin owes Anna something, the
Salvadors owe her even more. Once I''m gone, I won''t be able to control things anymore. But mark my
words, Gregory. Don''t you dare match Justin with any of those inappropriate women!"
Enraged and humiliated, Gregory yelled furiously while sporting that absurdly flushed face. "Justin''s
health is in jeopardy. After years of being on medication, the doctor says his chances of fathering a
child are almost zero! And now you want to bring Be into the family. Are you trying to end our family
lineage, leaving the Salvadors without an heir?!"
Upon hearing this, Nigel trembled violently. "W-What do you mean?"
