Gregory continued, âYou canât let others figure out what you are thinking through your eyes. This is very
dangerous.â
âI know, Dadâ¦â
Gregory took out his phone and made a video call to Justin.
When Justin picked up the call, his stern and angular face filled the screen.
Bethany hurriedly hugged Gregoryâs arm tighter, trying her best to show off how much Gregory loved
her in front of Justin.
As a result, Justin ignored it completely and asked coldly, âWhy are you looking for me?â
âYour sister has already reached an agreement with Ada Wang, and now itâs up to you to finalize the
deal.â
Gregory commanded, âMeet with Ada Wang as soon as possible and sign the contract.â
âWeâve already talked about it, so thereâs no need for me to come forward.â
Justin raised the corners of his lips. âBethany, congratulations in advance for snatching such a big
project from Ms. Thompson. Since youâre so smart and capable, you should complete this important
contract signing process by yourself. I wonât steal your limelight.â
Bethany was so angry that her insides were burning. Her eyes were red from suppressing her anger.
If Justin did not take up the project, Ada Wang would not work with the Salvador Hotel.
âJustin, Bethany is your sister. Itâs not easy for her to push things to this point. As an elder brother, canât
you help her complete the deal?â Gregoryâs voice was deep, and his eyes were filled with anger.
âWhether this project goes through is Bethanyâs responsibility. Thereâs no such thing as only sharing
hardships but selfishly reaping all the benefits.â
Gregory was fuming. âJustin!â
âIf you really want to solve this matter, you might as well meet Ada Wang in person. Canât you, the
chairman of Salvador Corporation, handle a celebrity?â
The call ended, and the screen turned black.
Justin hung up the video call without giving them a chance to respond.
The Hoffman family also encountered trouble.
Mrs. Hoffman had been competing with Lance Iversonâs daughter, Astrid Iverson, for the jewelry charity
auction. Originally, Mrs. Hoffman had almost reached an agreement with Vincentâs team, but she
suddenly received news yesterday that Vincent had chosen Astrid.
Her hard work in recent days was in vain, and she was so depressed that she could not eat.
Zoe saw this and felt resentful.
She knew why Vincent suddenly changed his mind. He was venting his anger on Bellaâs behalf.
Zoe returned to her room, furious. She had no choice but to call her frenemy, Bethany.
âIâm in a bad mood. Letâs go for a drink at my brotherâs club tonight.â
âSigh⦠Iâm also in a bad mood.â
Bethany told Zoe about Ada Wangâs refusal to sign a contract with her, âAlthough we stopped Ada from
working with Bella, I didnât reap the benefits. How infuriating!â
âHmph! Donât worry. Ada Wang just doesnât want to admit that she made the wrong choice. Sheâll
naturally figure it out in a few days.â
Zoe entered her walk-in closet, went through the expensive designer clothes, and asked in a lazy tone,
âA lot of things have happened recently, but I had to endure it all. Bethany, can you organize something
fun to make me happy?â
Bethany was startled.
She immediately understood what Zoe meant and said with a playful smile, âDonât worry. Iâll definitely
make you happy tonight!â
