The secretary turned on the TV and put the news channel on.
It was the “Three O’Clock News” again.
Justin furrowed his brows. Since losing the Baxim project, he could not stand to watch the
news program.
“Thank you for watching the three o’clock news. Let’s jump into the headlines for the day.
Internationally renowned actress Ada Wang arrived at Savrow last night, drawing the
attention of fans and the media. According to sources, Ada Wang’s visit to the city is to
fulfill her mother’s dying wish of holding a wedding in her mother’s hometown. The
Salvador Corporation and KS World Hotel have been vying for the right to host Ada’s
wedding at their hotels. Ada has finally chosen her ideal wedding venue after days of
deliberation.”
Justin’s throat went dry as he fixated on the TV screen.
“Congratulations to KS World Hotel, who will be hosting Ada Wang’s wedding.”
Justin’s heart sank, and his ears buzzed. The news hit him like a ton

Bethany was secretly glad.
With the situation falling apart, Bethany knew her chances to rise to
power were higher as Justin would be deemed useless.
The scene cut over to Ada’s interview with the “Three O’Clock News”.
She explained briefly why she had picked KS World Hotel.
Ada said, “Salvador Corporation is in the hotel industry for a reason, but I personally prefer
KS World Hotel’s wedding proposal. It has nothing to do with the hotels’ services or quality.
It’s just a matter of personal preference.”
Justin grabbed the remote control and turned off the TV, unable to listen to another word.
He then hurled the remote control onto the
table.
“Ha! And here you were talking about focusing on the long term instead of the short term.
You have nothing to go on anyway. You didn’t close the deal on Ada’s wedding, and your
PR efforts last night helped the competition instead. How do you plan on turning things
around?”
Pale-faced, Justin was about to respond when Bethany stepped in and comforted Gregory.
“Don’t be angry, Dad.”
Bethany, heavily influenced by her mother, Shannon, knew defending Justin now would
fuel Gregory’s resentment of him. “Ada has made it
clear that it was a matter of personal preference, not about Salvador
Corporation’s capabilities. Besides, Justin did his best. Bella is just
too cunning and manipulative . She’s always one step ahead of us. That’s the nature of
business, I guess.”
Justin looked up at Bethany menacingly. “Bella didn’t do anything
wrong. We just didn’t cover all our bases.”
Narrowing her gaze, Bethany gritted her teeth and kept her thoughts to herself. ‘Hmph! No
point in having her back now that you’re divorced! Maybe it’s a good thing. You’re just
digging your own grave by jumping to Bella’s defense.’
“Don’t tell me you let Bella win on purpose, Justin,” Gregory

questioned.
“No.” Justin kept his head down.
“I should remind you that you and the girl are divorced. She has no relationship with
Salvador Corporation. In other words, you’re enemies. You can’t even be friends. The
wicked and cunning girl has been giving us a lot of trouble. I didn’t make things difficult for
her because you were once married, but that doesn’t mean I’ll put up with her forever.”
Gregory Salvador slammed the table in rage.
Justin narrowed his eyes at Gregory’s grimacing face, his eyes
bloodshot and his fists clenched.
“Are you trying to defy me, Justin? What’s with the look on your face?”
While Gregory looked stern, his heart raced.
The kid once gave him the same stinging look when his mother jumped off the building to
her death.
To this day, Gregory was brought back to that fateful incide every time he looked into his
son’s eyes.
