Chapter 684
Justin was shocked. His hands paused abruptly in midair. He initially reached out to comfort Bella.
“I can see that you’re in a hurry. I only wanted to...”
“I’ll say it one more time. It’s none of your business!” Bella was not in the mood to entertain him any further.
She quickly moved away from him, glancing at her phone while
sprinting out of the room.
-Bang! The door was slammed shut behind her.
In an instant, the warmth that Justin felt had vanished. Everything
that had just happened felt like a dream.
Even the priceless antique he had gifted her was left behind. To Bella her family was the most important. Nothing else mattered.
Justin felt an overwhelming sadness in his heart. However, he knew it
wasn’t the time to wallow in sadness. He opened the door and left the
room.
“Mr. Salvador! I just saw Ms. Thompson storm out. Did you upset
her?” lan asked with genuine concern, giving him a somewhat
disapproving look. After all, Justin was known for being cruel with his
words.
“Bella is facing some trouble,” Justin responded, his gaze intense.
“Oh? That explains the commotion downstairs earlier.” lan quickly

pulled out his phone, swiping his thumbs across the screen. Suddenly, his brow furrowed. “Mr. Salvador, take a look at this!”
Justin’s dark eyes focused on the video playing on the phone screen. His handsome brows furrowed, and he snatched the
phone.
The footage was from years ago. The blurry pixels made it unclear, yet it was undoubtedly a video of Celeste on stage. She
appeared embarrassed, covering her lower body with her hands as fluid
streamed down her slender legs.
The audience below stared fixedly at her, letting out shocked gasps. Several cameras were flashing continuously, capturing the
moment.
“My mother was a big fan of Madam Celeste back then. She
mentioned how Madam Celeste’s career took a hit due to a drug abuse scandal. When she was performing at TS Gem Channel,
she even had an incident where she lost control and peed herself.”
lan couldn’t stand to watch the video. “But back then, the internet
wasn’t as advanced and most phones couldn’t record videos, so news didn’t spread so quickly. Being a hardcore fan of Madam
Celeste, my mother was camped out at the TS Gem station and saw it
with her own eyes.”
Justin listened, feeling uneasy. He could empathize with her pain.
Celeste was a glamorous celebrity Falling from such heights must
have destroyed her dignity.
The embarrassment must have been worse than death for her.
“I heard from my mom that all the newspapers and magazines had headlines about Madam Celeste’s disgrace, covering
everything. It

was everywhere, like you could find one just by going downstairs to
throw out the trash. However, within a few hours, all those
newspapers and magazines disappeared! No one knew who took
them away, and they were never found again.”
Justin squinted his eyes, comprehending the gravity of the situation.
It was undoubtedly Chairman Thompson pulling the strings. Only
someone as powerful as Chairman Thompson could quickly erase all
the negative coverage about Celeste from national newspapers and
magazines.
“Only today, the scandal went viral. It seems the mastermind behind
this has been plotting for a long time. They are even quite skilled to have obtained the video that Chairman Thompson had
erased years ago.”
Justin was calm and composed despite his earlier rejection by Bella.
He analyzed the situation calmly. “The person who released this
video is either an insider from the TS Gem Channel or someone
connected to Madam Celeste’s past.”
“Mr. Salvador, you’re really sharp!” lan continued to flatter Justin.
“Find out where this video originated from immediately. Check who released this video-an influencer or a journalist. Anyone even
remotely connected to this matter should be identified and detained.”
Justin instructed, his expression determined.
“Yes, Mr. Salvador!”
With the instructions given, Justin swiftly walked away, sweeping
past lan.
