She flashed a sweet smile and continued, "There have been a lot of new people moving into the neighborhood lately, so Dr. Amaryllis has temporarily assignedto lend a hand." "Oh, is that so?" Upon hearing Clarice's name, the man no longer suspected anything and simply said, "Don't go wandering around. A male patient just cin today, and he's very important to Dr. Amaryllis. Head over there and see if she needs any help!" Bella felt a wave of relief wash over her as his suspicion faded. She quickly responded with a bright smile, "Okay, I'll head there right away!" Back at Savrow's top hospital, Justin's condition had stabilized, and he had been transferred to a regular ward for monitoring. However, his sudden collapse earlier today during the meeting in front of the entire board of directors created quite a commotion within Salvador Corporation. Rumors were spreading like crazy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGrant, who had once been frail and ill, now exuded a vibrant energy, whereas the once robust and dynamic Justin now appeared to be in a worrying state.
In just a few short hours, gossip had begun to circulate within the Salvador Corporation, speculating that Grant might reclaim the position of heir and fully take over the company.
"Doctor, how is my son doing?!" Gregory anxiously grabbed the doctor's arm in the hallway.
"Chairman Salvador, please rest assured. Mr. Salvador's life is not in danger, but-" The doctor's eyes flickered with doubt. "His symptoms are quite complicated and don't seem to be a simple case of illness." Standing behind Gregory, Grant momentarily displayed a hint of dark malice on his otherwise refined and elegant features, the corners of his lips curving upward before settling back into a neutral expression.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGregory's face turned pale. "Then what's going on?!" "About that... We'll need to wait for the blood test results to make an accurate diagnosis." After the doctor left, Grant approached Gregory, gently guiding him to a nearby chair. He spoke in a composed and reassuring tone. "Dad, don't worry too much. Justin has always been in great health, unlike me. He'll pull through this." "Great health... Will he really recover?" Gregory raged, pounding his chest in frustration. "Ever since Justin sustained that brain injury and barely survived, he's becmore eccentric, and his health has been on the decline! All of this is because of that wretched Bella. She's nothing but a troublemaker, constantly stirring up chaos in our family!" "Dad, please don't speak of Ms. Thompson that way." Gregory was taken aback, scrutinizing Grant's deep gaze. He curiously asked, "Grant... Are you serious about Ms. Thompson?" Grant's lips curled into a gentle smile. "Of course. More serious than ever before." Gregory frowned deeply. "Does it have to be her? There are plenty of good women in the world..." Grant's voice was steady and firm, each word deliberate. "It must be her. Please, Dad, give us your blessing." "Grant, you've had a tough life, growing up far fromall these years without asking for much. Now that Justin and Bella have gone their separate ways, I won't stop you if you want to go after her, even though I'm not exactly happy about it.

She even went so far as to secretly marry him without her father's approval.
"Even if I were to arrange a proposal and fully support you, do you really think she would accept it? Besides, Wyatt is notoriously difficult to ne to have handle, and he's determined to Justin as his son-in-law. Do you think he'd allow his daughter to end up with you, Justin's own brother?" Content belongs to en.kikistoriesGregory's concerns were evident.
Grant lowered his gaze, chuckling softly. "You're right, but I believe that over time, things will work themselves out." Everything would change.
The lives altered by that kidnapping incident-his and Justin's—would be restored. He would reclaim everything that was rightfully his and set the world back on its proper course.
"Dad, if—just if..." Grant's pale, slender hand lightly patted Gregory's back as he asked softly, "If Justin's health fails him, leaving him unable to shoulder Salvador Corporation's responsibilities, what would you do?" Gregory sighed heavily, clutching his forehead. "Indeed, if Justin can't recover, who else could helpmanage the company?" Grant leaned closer, speaking softly into Gregory's ear. "If you trust me, I could help Justin temporarily-until he's well again."
