Chapter 552
lan shuddered. “Ahem. Um... Mr. Salvador, I was just worried for you. It’s like the slow-mo button has been hit between you and
the young madam. Will I ever see you two get back together again? You risked your life to save the young madam, but she
remains indifferent to you. She has been calling me like clockwork to get an update on your for the past two days, but she hasn’t
checked on you once. I feel sorry for you.”
Back then, Bella would prepare a feast and stand outside the villa for
Justin’s return from business trips.
Her heart used to be his.
Now, even lan felt smothered by the chilly looks Bella gave Justin.
Some things, once lost, can never be found again.
“It’s fine.”
Moments later, Justin sighed dejectedly and rubbed his clenched
fists against his lap. “I will not give up on her, regardless of her
attitude toward me.”
Following a knock on the door, the secretary’s voice came through.”
Mr. Ryan Hoffman is here to see you, Mr. Salvador.”
“Let him in.”
Humming to a tune, Ryan entered the office with a smile.
He wore a crisp white suit. The absence of a shirt left his tan and
toned chest bare to the chilly weather. He adorned a white gold chain. along his collarbone, adding a touch of sultry defiance to
his entire
look.
Only Ryan would pull off a showy and elegant outfit in the whole of
Savrow.
“You look good, bro. I guess Bella’s miracle drug did the trick.” Ryan fell back onto the sofa. He felt at ease to see Justin doing
well.
Since Justin admitted to Ryan about his feelings for Bella, Ryan has stopped seeing Bella as anything more than his best friend’s
girl.
Justin appreciated the thought.
Still, he looked at Ryan’s indecency in disdain. “You can forget gaining access to Salvador Corporation if you come looking like
that again.”
Ryan asked, “Huh? Why?”
“This is a place of work, not an escort establishment.”
Justin put the focus back on his work. “I don’t want people to get the wrong idea that I have some sort of fetish.”
lan snickered.
Ryan blinked as it took him a while to get it. He exclaimed, “I’m ast
straight as a straight guy can ever be.”
Justin had no words.
lan had a hard time holding back his laughter.
“Enough. I don’t have time for your nonsense. What do you need?”
Justin asked.
“Check this out.
Ryan pulled out an invitation card and waved it around in delight.
“What’s that?”
“I received an invitation from Ms. Thompson, inviting me to celebrate
Mrs. Celeste Thompson’s birthday celebration this weekend.
Woohoo!”
