Chapter 495
“Thanks.”
“Why did you suddenly get the urge to go hiking?” lan asked curiously.
“I go every year,” Justin replied calmly.
During one summer vacation when he was young, Justin volunteered
as a forest ranger in Mount Jaglee National Forest Park for two
months as a means of relieving stress.
Life back then was very simple. Apart from eating and sleeping, all he
did was go hiking with his captain, rescue tourists, and investigate
safety hazards..
It had been an easy time in his life, which was a rare occurrence.
Later on, after he became president of Salvador Corporation, he would donate a large sum of money to
the forest park every year. No
one knew this apart from himself and his captain.
“Mr. Salvador! You saw Ada Wang’s wedding, right? The young madam is really amazing!”
lan’s eyes sparkled as he turned into Bella’s fanboy. “Black roses!
How did she come up with the idea to use black roses to decorate the

venue? And what’s surprising is that Ada Wang agreed!”
“Because she isn’t a normal woman. She’s Bella Thompson.”
Justin’s deep-set eyes curved slightly as he said softly, “She always
finds a way.”
lan’s eyes widened as his jaw dropped. ‘Did I hear it wrong?! The big boss had actually spoken of the
young madam so tenderly! Has the
macho man softened?!”
Because of Justin’s and Nigel’s interference, Hunter’s appointment as
the head of Salvador Corporation’s legal department fell through.
For the first time, Hunter Lovett, who always had smooth sailing
tasted defeat and went to Europe for a week for a vacation
returning home.
He had just entered the door when he was caught by Steven, wh
been waiting for him for a whole week.
“Oh? Isn’t this Ms. Thompson’s loyal dog of a secretary?”
Hunter gave Steven a mocking look. “What are you doing back home
instead of following her around like a puppy?”
“Don’t you have something to explain to me?” Steven ignored Hunter’s
mocking and asked coldly.
“Explain to you? Steven, is that how you should speak to your older brother?” Hunter had been
suppressing his anger all this while, and it was finally about to erupt.
“The last time, it was Shannon Quarry. This time, it’s Bethany
Salvador. You really are an industry model of labor, since you’re taking all the shitty jobs.” Steven
clenched his fists tightly as he
sneered.
“Steven!”

and reach heights people can look up to, but all that shouldn’t be
obtained by being ungrateful!”
Steven roared in anger with reddened eyes. “Without the Thompsons,
we wouldn’t be where we are today! Don’t you know you’re eroding
your conscience by helping the Salvadors move against Ms. Bella?!”
“I’m eroding my conscience?! Am I not doing it all for the sake of this
family?!”
Hunter felt angry and indignant, not feeling like he was in the w whatsoever. “Just because the
Thompsons helped us once, we h

Thompson’s lapdog, but Clarence and I have ambitions of our own.
Don’t assume we’re like you, who just want to have it easy and dream
of marrying into their family!”
Steven finally could not bear it anymore, and gritting his teeth, he
swung his fist and punched Hunter in the face.
This was the first time in his 28 years of life that he had raised a hand
against his older brother.
Once, his brother used to make him proud.
Now, Steven only felt ashamed.
Infuriated, Hunter punched back too.
The two brothers started fighting in the living room, scaring the
helpers silly.
But Hunter was no match for Steven, who held a black belt in
taekwondo. Thus, Hunter was quickly overwhelmed by his 188-cm-tall younger brother, who pressed
him to the floor and pounded him
against it.
“Steve! Stop it!”
Right then, their parents and second brother, Clarence, camer
downstairs. They were stunned to see this scene.
