"Young Madam, let me tell you, the land transaction in Terranova is so bizarre!" lan seized the opportunity to lavish praise on Justin. "Fortunately, Mr. Salvador is wise and discerning. He informed Mr. Thompson in time about this investigation. There's still a glimmer of hope. Otherwise, the losses would have been even greater if construction began!"

"Mr. Harris, are you implying that my brother is not wise and discerning?" Bella's fair and delicate arms were crossed in front of her chest, her gaze intimidating.

lan's spine stiffened with fear. "Young... Young Madam, please don't misunderstand. I never meant that!"

"lan, watch your words." Justin's icy gaze was piercing. "Loose lips can sink ships, or bonuses."

lan was stunned and speechless.

That statement carried even more weight!

Businessmen were humans too, and it was common to slip up.

In fact, Justin's wisdom and business prowess were not innate. They were the result of years of managing the conglomerate and navigating countless pitfalls, big and small.

He just happened to know a little more about Terranova than Asher, and that little extra knowledge played a crucial role.

"Originally, when I pointed out the problem, I wanted your brother to find a way to sell that piece of land as soon as possible, but he hasn't found a suitable buyer yet," Justin said calmly, not thinking that what he did was extraordinary.

Bella thought, 'A suitable buyer? Finding a scapegoat would be a more accurate description.'

But unexpectedly, Steven encountered some trouble, which turned out to be a fortune in disguise. A big opportunity walked right into their laps.

"So, when Steven encountered trouble yesterday, you thought of using that project as a bargaining chip for reconciliation. That's why you hurriedly notified Asher to come over with the transfer contract." Bella squinted her lively eyes.

Justin caressed the silky hair of the beauty in his arms without reservation. "I can't hide anything from you, can I?"

"Tsk tsk! If Mr. Salvador wasn't managing Salvador Corporation, he could consider going into fraud. He'd definitely be a top swindler."

Justin's lips tugged slightly, and his smile was indulgent. "I didn't deceive James. At most, I just invited him into the trap. It's his choice whether to step into it or not. We never forced him. He could have refused to reconcile with Mr. Thompson for the sake of his cherished brotherly affection."

"Oh, come on, Mr. Salvador, you're so shrewd that others would probably develop acute paranoia just by looking at you."

Bella poked his stiff chest with her fingertip. "Upon closer inspection, your trap has many loopholes. Regarding that contract, James could have delayed us until he took over, then sent people for on-site inspection and conducted cautious research. So, ultimately, it's because you understand his current dire situation in the Iverson family. He's eager to take credit, so he's impatient. Faced with such a big temptation, he'll definitely jump into the pit without a second thought. As for brotherly affection, at that moment, James only thought about how to turn things around and had long forgotten about Charles." Justin admired her with his eyes, as if Bella were the most beautiful woman in the world.

"To conquer the enemy, it starts with the mind."

"Heh, James, who thought he had picked up a big bargain, probably won't be able to laugh for long."

Bella's face lit up again with a brilliant smile. She was in such a good mood that she felt like eating another serving of mashed potatoes.

However, just as the atmosphere began to relax, a call from Ralph brought their mood back down.

"Bella, there's trouble. Promise me not to get angry and stay calm." Ralph took a deep breath, his voice heavy. "Charles was just bailed out by Lance and James."
