Wilson was surprised. He blinked and said, “Oh! That’s something to celebrate! Congratulations, Chairman Salvador and Justin.”
“Are you joking, Chairman Salvador?”
Justin clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white. Overwhelming anger and panic crashed down on him. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like a beast desperately trying to break free from its iron cage.
“Everyone knows that I love Bella. You want a marriage alliance with the Hoffman family, huh? I don’t know what shady deal you’ve made with them, but even if you threaten me with your own life, I won’t marry Zoe!”
The crowd’s jaws were about to drop.
Even the Reeds, who had experienced many dramatic fallouts, were stunned by Justin’s audacious words.
Wilson Jr. initially looked down on Justin, but seeing how bold Justin was to embarrass his own father in front of so many prominent families, Wilson Jr. started admiring Justin.
He exclaimed, “He’s so cool.”
“Oh my God! What did Mr. Salvador say? Did I mishear?! This is insane!”
“The war between this father and son is about to begin!”
“If I were Chairman Salvador, my blood pressure would rise, and I’d faint! Don’t Justin’s words mean that he did not care whether Chairman Salvador would die, but no one could stop him from being together with Bella? So his father’s life is nothing compared to Ms. Bella?”
Bella’s tearful eyes stared deeply at Justin, as if there was no other man in this world who could make her heart surge with emotion.
The surrounding guests cast side-eyes at the Hoffman family.
“What’s going on? It feels like Justin is unaware of this marriage. Did Chairman Salvador sell him off?”
“Yeah, it’s not good to tear the couple apart!”
