Justin pushed open the door and walked into the tailor shop. His large build was almost as big as the
door frame.
The tailor was ironing clothes and looked surprised to see such a handsome man in his shop.
âOh! Itâs you!â
âPlease do me a favor. Money is not an issue.â
Justin frowned slightly and opened the box in front of the tailor.
âOh my goodness! How did this happen?! How did such fine clothes end up like this?!â The tailor loved
clothes so much that he felt distressed seeing such a wreckage.
âItâs my fault.â Justin felt a bitterness in his throat.
âThat girl hand stitched this suit. I watched her work so hard to complete it that I felt tired on her behalf,
as if I had made this suit.â
The old tailor shook his head sadly. âWhat a pity⦠Such a waste of effort⦠It was a fine suitâ¦â
âIs there any way you can fix it?â Justin asked hurriedly.
âHow can I fix this? I can fix the lining that is damaged, but itâs hard to fix the outer surface.â
Inexplicably, Justinâs heart clenched after hearing this.
âPlease try to fix it up as much as possible. I donât mind if there are marks. At least sew up the tears in
the suit.â
As soon as Justin returned to Tideview Manor, he felt an oppressive air around him.
âJustin!â
Shannonâs eldest daughter, Bethany, ran over anxiously. âGrandpa is here. Heâs quarreling with Dad in
the study upstairs. Itâs quite intense. Please go upstairs and try to appease him!â
âWhy are they quarreling?â Justin cocked an eyebrow.
Justin thought that Gregory liked to give the impression that he was a filial son.
Nigel had high blood pressure and suffered a stroke, so he should not get too agitated. Gregory did not
care about his long-standing reputation as a good son and got into a head-on conflict with Nigel.
There was only one reason for Gregory to do that-for Shannon.
âRose is very close to our family. Now that her family is in trouble, itâs only reasonable for Dad to help,
right?â
Bethany was so angry that she stomped her feet. âBut Grandpa refused to allow Dad to help the Gold
family. Do you think Grandpa is senile? Helping the Gold family is equivalent to helping our family,
right? Justin, youâre about to marry Rose. If this matter isnât resolved, our family will be disgraced.â
Justinâs eyes were gloomy as he went upstairs.
Clangâ!
Nigel was sitting in a wheelchair in the study. He picked up the ashtray and teacup from the coffee
table and threw them on the floor.
The old man was almost 80 years old. But as he got older, his temper became more erratic. He would
sweep things off the table at a hint of disagreement.
Shannon wiped her tears with a silk handkerchief and huddled in Gregoryâs arms, crying.
Gregory shielded her with his body. He was afraid that the glass fragments would cut her.
âDad! Will you calm down? Canât you just talk properly?â
âI will only talk to you if youâre being reasonable! You deserve a beating for doing such shitty things!â
Nigel was so angry that he thumped his chest. âWhat did I tell you? I told you not to interfere in Gold
Corporationâs affairs! How dare you go against me?! You bought their leftover products and even gave
them some of our projects! How the hell did this woman brainwash you? Do you think Iâm dead?!â
âDad, how could you say that?â Gregory was furious, but he dared not say anything else.
âAm I wrong? Ever since you married this woman, your mind has been muddled!â Nigel slapped the
armrest.
âDad⦠I know that you look down on me, but I have been with Greg for more than 20 years now⦠Iâm
a dutiful wife and mother, and I serve the Salvador family wholeheartedly. Iâm cautious and respectful
})
Shannon cried and continued, âI have never disobeyed you, and I have never caused any trouble to the
Salvador family⦠I know itâs a blessing that I get to marry Greg, so I dare not ask for anything else
Gregory glanced lovingly at his beloved wife in his arms.
Nigel was immune to her hypocritical attitude. He was so furious that he shook in anger.
