Chapter 1109
Bella thought, ‘Huh? Justin is usually so reserved, but it turns out he
can be quite eloquent at crucial moments.’
She squinted her eyes. Taking advantage of the distraction around them, she playfully nudged Justin with her shoulder.
A pleasant scent washed over him, causing Justin’s mind to sway,
and a hint of warmth rose to his cheeks as he pressed his lips tightly
together.
Bella caught sight of his slightly blushing face and stifled a laugh.’
Well, deep down, he’s still a naive guy.’
But this seemingly naive guy was like a big bad wolf when he hugged
her in bed and made love passionately to her late at night.
“Shannon, just have a glass. You don’t need to drink too much.” Gregory said, casting a glance at Shannon, his gaze heavy and his
voice lowered. “Don’t ruin the mood for everyone.”
Shannon’s heart tightened, and her arm was stiff. She awkwardly
raised her glass and drank all the wine in it.
Watching her grimace as if she were drinking something awful, Bethany secretly worried for her,
Christopher always paid attention to the subtle interactions between Bella and Justin. He always felt like they were plotting something, but
he couldn’t figure it out.
Wilson Jr. returned to sit beside his father, gritting his teeth, his
expression gloomy.
“Son, are you interested in Alexa?” Wilson asked casually.
“Yes, I fell in love with Ms. Thompson at first sight.” Wilson Jr. stared
at Bella’s beautiful face without turning away. He was straightforward
and unrestrained in expressing his admiration for her.
“Well, I agree. Among the young ladies present, only Alexa is a
suitable match for you. As for the others, they’re like clowns.”
He sneered contemptuously, thinking of Zoe, who had just tried to
curry favor with Justin.
“But, my boy, you have quite a few rivals, don’t you?” Wilson smirked
and patted his shoulder. “Justin and the young master of the Iverson
family both harbor feelings for Alexa. Even I can see that clearly.
You’ve only met Alexa today for the first time. How will you compete
with them?”
“The Iverson family is not enough to contend with us. As for Justin,
what is he? Is he worthy of competing with me?” Wilson Jr. scoffed
at Justin. “To put it nicely, he’s the second young master of the
Salvador family and the president of the Salvador Corporation. To put
it bluntly, he’s just a dog raised by the Salvador family. Does he really think that the position of heir to Salvador Corporation is his? If our family supports the eldest son of the Salvador family, we can directly pull Justin down from the position of president. I don’t believe he will choose women over power. True love is something I’ve only heard of
and never seen.”
Wilson reminded his son sternly. “Even so, I believe that interests
should still take precedence. Cooperation with Salvador Corporation
is crucial at the moment. You should not stir up trouble
unnecessarily.”
