Gregory said, "That miscarriage left Be unable to conceive again! Do you really want such a woman
to marry Justin? Justin is the sole hope for the Salvadors'' future. If you let him marry Be, who will
inherit our trillion-dor family business?! Bethany and Carrie? Are they capable of handling this
responsibility?!
Justin felt as though his heart had undergone another devastating blow.
"H-How is that possible?" Nigel was utterly bewildered, as if his heart were dripping blood.
"That''s her personal problem. Why should the entire Salvador family suffer for it?! She can only me
it on her bad luck andck of blessings!"

"That''s not the truth!"
Suddenly, damp with sweat, Matt rushed forward and eximed loudly. "It''s nothing like what you''ve
described!"
The three Salvador men were dumbfounded.
Matt had been with the Salvadors for over thirty years. He was known for his calm and gentle
personality and for always being thorough and meticulous in his work. It was unprecedented for him to
act so impulsively.
"Uncle Matt, do you know something?"
Justin quickly picked up on his reluctance to speak and asked urgently, tears welling in his eyes, "You
know something about it, don''t you?!"
Matt tightly shut his eyes, tears of guilt streaming down his face.
In the next moment, with a sudden thud, he dropped to his knees before them.
"Uncle Matt!"
"Matt!"
Nigel was both shocked and concerned, forcefully pping his thigh. "Get up now! What''s the matter?
Why are you doing this?!"
Justin hurried forward to help Matt up, but Matt remained stubbornly on his knees.
"It''s all my fault... It''s all my fault. I should''ve spoken up sooner. If I had, Ms. Thompson and Young
Master Justin wouldn''t be in this situation now..." Matt choked back tears as he spoke intermittently,
"Back then... I was present when Ms. Thompson had a miscarriage."
Justin''s pupils quivered as he eximed, "What did you say? You were there?!"
"Matt! What''s going on?! Why were you there?!"
Nigel''s heart raced with anxiety, his throat burning with impatience. "You''re usually so articte. Why
are you hesitating now? Tell us about it now!"
"It was the car ident... It was all because of that car ident!"
Matt thought to himself, ''I''m sorry, Young Madam. I can''t keep this secret for you any longer.''
"C-Car ident?"
Justin''s mind raced, suddenly remembering the incident. It was almost three years ago.
When Justin returned from abroad, he found out that his grandfather was in the hospital due to an
ident, yet Be was not there to care for him. She had disappeared for a while, iming there were
family matters to attend to.
"Christmas... Was it that Christmas?!" Nigel immediately grasped the connection.
Matt nodded heavily, his choked words difficult to express. "On Christmas three years ago, Chairman
Salvador and Young Master Justin, along with the Young Ladies, were all away from Savrow... Only
Ms. Thompson braved the snowstorm to apany you for the holiday..."
Suddenly, Justin felt a tightening sensation in his chest, as if the air around him had be thin,
making it hard for him to catch his breath.
"You said you wanted to visit Old Madam Deborah, so Ms. Thompson drove you there. Later, you both
went to the seaside, where you and Old Madam Deborah went on dates when you were young... It was
supposed to be a beautiful day. But you two got into an ident on the way back."
Tears streamed down Matt''s face as he continued, "Ms. Thompson was also injured and did everything
she could to get you to the hospital. Then, she started experiencing severe abdominal pain. And then...
I watched helplessly as... Blood flowed from under her skirt..."
"My poor Anna! Why were you so naive?!" Nigelmented, shaking his head repeatedly in remorse with
tears in his eyes.
