Chapter 982
Gregory staggered back in disbelief, his heart spasming from excruciating pain.
Back then, he knew Mary suffered from depression, but apart from
always staying in the house and speaking less, she did not exhibit any
unusual behaviors.
Moreover, during that era, people did not understand much about depression. Many depressed patients were
often overlooked by their families, even being called pretentious. Therefore, Gregory was unaware of the severity
of Mary's illness.
He was busy with his work as the chairman, so he neglected her.
Nigel's weathered eyes revealed a hint of sorrow. “Back then, she refused to marry you and started distancing

someone else.
“But one day, she cto meetwhile you were on a business trip and toldeverything on her mind...”
Nigel's thoughts went back to the past.
“Mr. Salvador, | cto beg you for one thing.”
Nigel recalled how Mary stood in front of him, bare-faced and dressed
plainly. However, she was still stunningly beautiful, stirring the
protective instinct in men. No wonder his son was obsessed with her.
“I hope you allowto leave Gregory and the Salvador family.”

“You want to leave the Salvador family?! How about Justin? Are you bringing him away?!” Nigel could not sit still
after hearing that.
Mary shook her head slightly.
“That's my main purpose for seeing you. | will leave the Salvador family alone without taking anything away,

care for him. With a loving grandfather, | could rest assured. Moreover, | am clear about my physical condition.
With a mother like me, every day will be torture for Justin. In the long run, it might eventually exhaust us. | don’t
want Justin to hate me.”
Nigel could sense that the woman might look frail, but she was smart.
She knew she could never provide Justin with what the Salvador family could. If her son stayed in the Salvador
family, he would
receive an elite education and becan outstanding young man
with a bright future.
“I have a question. | don’t understand why you would want to lea the Salvador family at this moment.”
Although Nigel was secretly happy that Mary would not take his grandson away, he could not help his curiosity
and asked, “You are the apple of my son’s eye. He would go to great lengths to make you smile. If it were
medieval times, he would go to war for you. He even
wanted to get married to you. You should know that if you bechis legal wife, you would be the Salvador
family’s madam. You have a son who is likely to becthe future heir of the Salvador Corporation if there are

have someone else you love? Did you only date Gregory due to the Salvador family’s influence and power, not
out of genuine feelings?”
As his words fell, Nigel thought he had been too harsh.
However, Mary did not seem angry at all. Her expression remained
calm.
“No, Mr. Salvador. | love Gregory. | love him very much. But with my mental state and physical condition, | am
unsuitable to bechis wife and the lady boss of the Salvador Corporation. | don’t know how long | could
accompany him. The one standing by his side should be a beautiful and outstanding woman who could take care
of his children and help out with his career. But | can’t do any of these. | don’t want to beca burden.
Therefore, it's better to cut off his
thoughts about me, and | could leave in peace.”
Nigel's eyes reddened after he narrated all this.
