"Then... How about your brother, who saved you?" Bella asked softly.

Justin's breath hitched.

Terrifying and traumatic memories from his youth surfaced in his mind again, vivid and clear.

"Although we have different mothers, Grant saved my life, which is undeniable. I will always owe him one."

Bella knew that Justin was a man who valued bonds and connections, which was a good thing, but it could occasionally hold him back.

"If your brother returns and fights to become the heir of the Salvador Corporation, will you step down for him?"

Justin chuckled. "Are you scared that I'll have to depend on you?"

"I kept thinking about this."

Bella blinked seriously, hooking her arms around his neck. "I'm a shallow person, only interested in fame and fortune. I can't be a housewife who takes care of her husband and children. I only want to dominate the business field and become a shining queen. Since I've involved myself in your life, I must take responsibility for you. Of course, I must know what you think to help you to the greatest extent." Justin immediately felt a lump form in his throat.

Bella was a phoenix who was willing to stay grounded for him, willingly becoming the nameless woman behind him for three years.

He owed her too much.

"Looking at the chaos caused by your brother, he doesn't seem to be the type of person who doesn't care about fame and fortune. He just couldn't show himself due to health issues. But what if he recovers one day? He is the eldest son, and he's capable. He also has close ties to the Reeds in Meridan. With such a wide net cast and so much preparation work done, I don't believe that he wouldn't compete." Justin frowned and said, "My brother's health is not looking good. He has been wheelchair-bound for many years."

"Did the kidnapping cause his legs to be disabled?"

Justin shook his head, taking a deep breath. "He was too young and stuck in a narrow container for too long, causing organ failure due to the lack of oxygen. As a result, his body is extremely weak now. Not only does he need to take long-term medication and oxygen therapy, he also needs a wheelchair when he goes out and can't stand for too long."

"He sounds so fragile."

Bella had a dazed expression but let out a sigh of relief. "This type of organ damage is the most severe. If so, he probably can't compete with you."

"You're still thinking about this?" Justin smiled bitterly, his brows furrowed.

"Sigh. Forget it."

Bella narrowed her eyes, raised her hand, and patted his well-defined face. "So what if he tries to compete? Grandpa Nigel supports you, and you have my full support too. After all, you've climbed the ladder and clung to a powerhouse like the Thompson family. My dear Mr. Salvador, your good days are yet to come."

Justin's lips curled up in a pleased smile. He suddenly pressed Bella down on the sofa, teasing her with his warm breath and seductive gaze.

"My queen, please take me under your wing."

The night grew darker.

A Rolls-Royce stopped at the police station near the east district.

Not long after, Ralph hurriedly came out of the gate and got into Bella's car.

Justin and lan were in the car too. They stared straight at Ralph, waiting for his news.
