Bellaâs eyes widened slightly, and she turned to look at Justin.
âKS Group has been at odds with our company for a very long time, and your precious adopted
granddaughter has been causing trouble for us constantly, making the companyâs stock prices
fluctuate. Weâve lost billions of dollars recently! After much effort, I finally managed to organize a
weekend event so that we could network among Savrowâs upper class. But at such an important
moment, Justin, as the president of the company, is disregarding the companyâs interests and turning
to support our rival instead! Tell me,
how am I supposed to not get angry?!â
Bellaâs eyes widened further, and she looked at Justin in disbelief.
Her heartbeat was racing.
âOh, and the event you speak ofâis it the birthday party youâre holdi
for that woman this weekend?â Nigel asked.
Gregory exclaimed, âThatâs the one! This is a rare opportunity!â
âAh. Since Justin isnât taking part, Iâm not showing up either.â
âWhat?!â Gregory was pale with shock.
âNot only am I not showing up, Iâm also going with Anna to take part
in the birthday party Wyatt Thompson is throwing for his third wife. So, are you going to beat me with
the whip too?â Nigel raised his white eyebrows and smiled mischievously.
âGrandpa Nigelâ¦â Bella was dumbfounded.

The blatant favoritism he was showing her moved her.
âDad! Are you doing this on purpose?! Why do you have to go that
far?!â Gregory threw the whip he was holding to the floor.
âHa! Donât you know why Iâm going this far?â
Nigelâs eyes were filled with anger because of his useless son. âThat
woman is widely notorious, and you still want to throw a party for her
at this juncture? You might not be afraid of embarrassing yourself,
but I am!â
Everyone looked at Shannon with disdain and secret enjoyment at her
public dressing down.
After all, Shannon, who was originally an actress, did not have a great
reputation at home either. She often abused the helpers and treated
them like animals. Everyone cursed her in secret and had been
complaining about her for ages.
Shannon was red with utter humiliation. She wished she could dig
hole and bury her head in it.
âThat old man has to die!â Shannon thought to herself, âLetâs wait and
see! Iâll kill you sooner or later! Iâll see how you can protect that
bastard Justin and that bitch Bella then!â
âEither way, Iâm not going, and neither is Justin! You canât do anything
about it, even if youâre unhappy. I support my grandson!â
Upon saying that, Nigel turned his determined gaze to the young couple, and his tone became much
more gentle. âAnna, Justin, letâs
1. You can stay with me tonight.â
Bella and Justin looked at each other.
They unexpectedly nodded at the same time.
Right then, Matt rushed in with a man who was carrying a medicine
box.
âOld Master, the doctor is here.â
âGood. Heâll come with us too. Letâs head back! I donât want to stay a
moment longer in this godforsaken place!â
Nigel led his precious grandchildren and the rest of his group toward
the door, leaving Gregory standing there.
âOh, right. From today onward, the Salvador familyâs archaic rules are
abolished!â
Nigel raised his voice in a parting shot at his own son as he was
being wheeled out by Matt. âOh, by the way, how many years has it
been since the Victorian era ended? Your thinking is even more
backward than an old sack of bones like mine. Iâm seriously d you even managed to remember such a
rotten and dusty set of
Everyone else covered their mouths. They were going to burst ou laughing at this rate!
Gregory felt his blood rush to his face, looking like a ripe tomato.
