Shannon said, âBut my sisterâs family is innocent. They do honest business, and itâs really unfair that
they are being slandered for no reason this time. Moreover, Rose is about to marry Justinâ¦â
âHonest business? Theyâre profiteers!â Nigel sneered.
Shannonâs expression froze.
âIâm not senile! Even though Iâm retired, I still know whatâs going on. The Gold family brought this
upon
themselves because theyâre not doing honest business. You donât need to use Justin as an excuse
either. If he marries that woman, I wonât acknowledge him as my grandson! You all can move out! If I
die one day, I donât need you all to be at my funeral!â
âDadâ¦â Gregory sighed.
Shannon sobbed, but her eyes were extremely sinister.
She thought, âIâve had enough of this old troll! Iâve been suppressed for more than 20 years! I wish
heâd just die a horrible death!â
âGrandpa!â
Justin strode in and hurriedly reached out to soothe Nigelâs back. But Nigel pushed him away.
âYou donât need to pretend! Youâre just like your father, brainwashed and used by that family of
shrews!â
âI wonât help the Gold family. I have already made my stance clear.â Justinâs eyes were particularly
calm.
Nigelâs eyes suddenly lit up. âReally?!â
âYes, Gold Corporation is at fault, so I wonât help them.â
âWhat about you and that woman?â
âIt has nothing to do with Rose. Our wedding will proceed as usual.â Justinâs eyes were indifferent.
âHmph! Forget it. At least youâre self-aware, much better than your stupid father!â Nigel waved his hand
disapprovingly.
Nigel did not understand what was wrong with his grandson. Why did Justin divorce Anna just to marry
that slut?
âAunt Shannon.â
Justin looked at Shannon and said in a deep voice, âI understand that you want to help the Gold family
because Mrs. Gold is your biological sister. But you can only help them if it doesnât harm the interests
of Salvador Corporation. Otherwise, donât you think that youâre being contrary to what you advocated-to
âserve the Salvador family wholeheartedlyâ?â
Shannon was rendered speechless. Her face turned red.
She thought, âThis bastard! Heâs been unfeeling since he was a kid, and now heâs so ruthless!â
âAlthough Rose is my fiancée, I know my stance. I never mix my personal feelings with work matters.
Dad, as the chairman, you should always put the interests of the company first.â Justin looked at
Gregory.
Justin was unemotional and professional. He did not care that Gregory was his father.
Gregoryâs face darkened. He knew that he was in the wrong, so he said, âIâm not helping the Gold
family because of Shannon. I just came back from attending a summit in Inalia. I was supposed to meet
a partner for a big foreign project, but he suddenly canceled the meeting. Later, I learned that Asher
Thompson, the CEO of KS Group, intercepted him. I donât know what benefits Asher promised him, but
he decided not to cooperate with our company anymore. Everything that happened to us is related to
the Thompson family. Itâs obvious that they are targeting us. I wonât let them get their way and ride over
our heads!â
âThat happened?â Nigelâs eyes darkened.
The Salvador family in Savrow and the Thompson family in Hatchbay were bitter rivals for hundreds of
years. Old Mrs. Thompson even said that she would not allow her descendants to marry anyone from
the Salvador family. The Thompson family were also formidable business rivals to the Salvador family.
It was clear that Asher wanted revenge when he intercepted Salvador Corporationâs hotel project and
this project abroad.
Wait a second!
Justin was startled. He asked, âDad, did you just say that you met Asher in Inalia?â
âYes.â
âToday?â
âYeah.â
How was that possible?
Asher went to the hospital to pick up Anna this afternoon. How did he have a clone in Inalia?
Was the man Justin saw in the afternoon not Asher?
If he was not Asher, then who was he?
