Gregory said, “That miscarriage left Bella unable to conceive again! Do you really want such a woman to marry Justin? Justin is the sole hope for the Salvadors’ future. If you let him marry Bella, who will inherit our trillion-dollar family business?! Bethany and Carrie? Are they capable of handling this responsibility?!
Justin felt as though his heart had undergone another devastating blow.
“H-How is that possible?” Nigel was utterly bewildered, as if his heart were dripping blood.
“That’s her personal problem. Why should the entire Salvador family suffer for it?! She can only blame it on her bad luck and lack of blessings!”
“That’s not the truth!”
Suddenly, damp with sweat, Matt rushed forward and exclaimed loudly. “It’s nothing like what you’ve described!”
The three Salvador men were dumbfounded.
Matt had been with the Salvadors for over thirty years. He was known for his calm and gentle personality and for always being thorough and meticulous in his work. It was unprecedented for him to act so impulsively.
“Uncle Matt, do you know something?”
Justin quickly picked up on his reluctance to speak and asked urgently, tears welling in his eyes, “You know something about it, don’t you?!”
Matt tightly shut his eyes, tears of guilt streaming down his face.
In the next moment, with a sudden thud, he dropped to his knees before them.
“Uncle Matt!”
“Matt!”
Nigel was both shocked and concerned, forcefully slapping his thigh. “Get up now! What’s the matter? Why are you doing this?!”
Justin hurried forward to help Matt up, but Matt remained stubbornly on his knees.
