Chapter 1062 Following a knock on the door, Bethany’s coy voice was heard on the other side. “Are you there, Dad?” “Cin.” The door swung open, and Bethany entered with a tray in hand.
“I'm sorry to cause you problems today, Dad. | brought your favorite fruits and snacks. Don’t be mad at me, okay?” Bethany placed the fruit platter on the table and drew close to give Gregory a hug and seek attention like always. Gregory would find it hard to stay mad at her when she showed a hunger for his approval.

“You are part of the Salvador family, and that doesn’t give you the right to boss others around simply because you have money. You manners define who you are. Otherwise, you're no different from a classless boor.” Bethany’s arms were suspended awkwardly in the air as she laughed dryly. “Yes, Dad. | won't do it again.” Gregory said nothing, nor did he touch the food she brought him.
“Dad, the horse race is in a few days. You mentioned that | looked good in that riding gear before, so | had one made for you in the sdesign. The designer has delivered the attire. Why don’t you cand check it out downstairs?” Chunger TOET Seeing that Gregory was still fuming, Bethany tried to please him.
“Bethany, you should sit the horse race out,” Gregory said indifferently.
“What?” Bethany stamped her foot. “Why aren’t you taking me? You always taketo the annual horse race.” “It’s not happening this year.” “Why?” Bethany made a face in desperation, “All the important and influential heiresses and socialites will be there. You must take me!” “I'll be taking Carrie instead.” Gregory lowered his gaze, refusing to look at her.
“How could you?” Bethany’s head was buzzing.

She's part of the Salvador family too.” Gregory finally met her gaze, his eyes colder than before. “Besides, you've attended the horse race for years. It's tto give your social life a rest. Carrie hasn't been to one before, and many in the city don’t recognize her.
“I want to give Carrie more opportunities to attend social events to make things fair.” Fair? Gregory had demonstrated a lack of concern for Carrie for more than Chap 1062 a decade, and now he wanted to play favorites and talk about fairness.
“What? By the look on your face, you don’t seem pleased.” Gregory raised his brow. “As the older sister, you should be looking out for Carrie and sharing the good stuff with her.” “N-No, I'm just concerned as Carrie is autistic. What if she acts up in the events? How would she handle the situation?” “Don’t worry about that. Mr. Hoffman will take good care of her.” Despite her rage, Bethany did not say a word.
“You can leave now. | need to get back to work.” Bethany went as white as a sheet. She only grimaced in resentment when she turned her back toward her father.
