Chapter 1170
Gregory glared at his trouble-making son. He was visibly upset.
Behind him was Paul, his security detail, and Bethany, who looked
peevish.
In fact, Bethany did not want to be there to see Shannon. She had not
set foot in Tideview Manor since the horse racing event.
Shannon, her mother, had embarrassed her.
Bethany did not dare check her social media or watch TV. She did see
a few comments about her mother in chat groups.
She blocked her socialite group, but those people made jokes at her
and her mother’s expense.
[Poor Mrs. Salvador. I bet there hasn’t been much activity in the
bedroom for a long time. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so thirsty herself so intensely.]
[A middle-aged woman with children is no different than a bree
stock in a man’s eyes. Even with her career as a celebrity, Mrs.
Salvador can’t stop her relationship from fizzling out.]
[What does it have to do with her being middle-aged? Mrs. Salvador is
using drugs and incontinent. I wouldn’t want to be in Chairman
Salvador’s shoes. That’s a scandal that will never die down.]
[I think Bethany is the one to suffer. She didn’t even have a proper
boyfriend. Her mother was taken away by the police. I doubt any man
would want to get involved with her family and take her hand in
marriage. It must be humiliating for her.]
Her so-called best friends had no qualms about talking behind her
back.
No one needed friends like them..
Yet Bethany had to look like she cared about her mother. Regardless
of Gregory’s feelings for Shannon, Bethany had to show her father
that she was a devoted and caring daughter.
She needed to prove she was way better than Carrie.
Bethany just witnessed Justin assaulting Hunter and heard their
conversation.
She sneered to herself.
Justin could stir a huge commotion for the bitch for all Bethany
cared. He would not stay as president for long once their father
ditched him.
“What am I doing? Can’t you see for yourself?” Justin narrowed his
eyes dangerously.
“Have you forgotten who you are? This is the police station. It’s
beneath you to raise your fists like a crass thug. You’re so foolish.”
Gregory started to see Justin in a new light because he had let Mary
down. However, Justin’s reckless behavior did not sit right with him.
Ralph and the surrounding police officers shook their heads in
disdain at the chairman of Salvador Corporation’s accusation.
“Chairman Salvador doesn’t seem to grasp the bigger picture. How
does he run the company anyway? I have no words.”
“I know, right? Mr. Salvador isn’t right to assault someone, but
Chairman Salvador only sees his behavior as crass and humiliating. I
can’t believe his perspective.”
“Those with money lose their human nature.”
Gregory was not deaf. Of course, he heard the chatter and grew
angrier at Justin.
“I know the person I am.” Justin returned to Bella’s side without
hesitation and held her hand.
His eyes met hers with tenderness. “I am Bella Thompson’s man. He
insulted her, so it’s only right that I punch him.”
Bella’s heart raced, and her hand in his grasp curled.
“You!” Gregory was stunned.
“If your woman was publicly insulted by a bastard, would you rema
calm and do nothing about it, Chairman Salvador?”
Justin curled his lips. “That reminds me. You love yourself more than
anyone else.”
Everybody was shocked.
Sparks flew between Justin and Gregory.
