Chapter 1109
Bella thought, âHuh? Justin is usually so reserved, but it turns out he can be quite eloquent at crucial moments.â
She squinted her eyes. Taking advantage of the distraction around them, she playfully nudged Justin with her shoulder.
Apleasant 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.â Well, deep down, heâs still a naive guy.â
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.
âShannon, just have a glass. You donât need to drink too much.â Gregory said, casting a glance at Shannon, his gaze heavy and
his voice lowered. âDonât ruin the mood for everyone.â
Shannonâs 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.
âSon, are you interested in Alexa?â Wilson asked casually.
âYes, | fell in love with Ms. Thompson at first sight.â Wilson Jr. stared at Bellaâs beautiful face without turning away. He was
straightforward and unrestrained in expressing his admiration for her.
âWell, | agree. Among the young ladies present, only Alexa is a suitable match for you. As for the others, they're like clowns.â
He sneered contemptuously, thinking of Zoe, who had just tried to curry favor with Justin.
âBut, my boy, you have quite a few rivals, donât you?â Wilson smirked and patted his shoulder. âJustin and the young master of
the Iverson family both harbor feelings for Alexa. Even | can see that clearly. You've only met Alexa today for the first time. How
will you compete with them?â
âThe Iverson family is not enough to contend with us. As for Justin, what is he? Is he worthy of competing with me?â Wilson Jr.
scoffed at Justin. âTo put it nicely, heâs the second young master of the Salvador family and the president of the Salvador
Corporation. To put it bluntly, heâs 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. | donât believe he will choose women over power. True love is something Iâve only heard of and never
seen.â
Wilson reminded his son sternly. âEven so, | believe that interests should still take precedence. Cooperation with Salvador
Corporation is crucial at the moment. You should not stir up trouble unnecessarily.â
âYou're right, Dad. | understand.â
Under pressure, Shannon gulped down a glass of champagne and immediately felt the urge to use the restroom.
After exchanging some words with Gregory, Shannon left the VIP seat.

It rang for a while before someone answered on the other end, âMrs. Salvador.â
