Chapter 1045 The horrifying kidnapping incident was a past that no one in the Salvador family wanted to mention.

Years ago, both of the young Salvador brothers got kidnapped by a notorious gang of kidnappers. The kidnappers held them captive in an old warehouse deep in the mountains, infested with cockroaches and rats, and demanded a huge ransom from the Salvador family.

Justin could not recall how many days the kidnappers held them captive in the filthy, damp, and foul-smelling place, with no sight of the sun.

As a child, they subjected him to daily beatings and abuse. Fearing he would run away, they only fed him once every three days. Justin barely survived all these.

Later, his older brother, four years his senior, seized an opportunity to hold back the kidnappers, giving Justin a chance to escape.

In the forest, Justin stumbled and ran without looking back fol seemed like an eternity, until his strength gave out. He then tun down the hillside.

Fortunately, a hunter rescued him. Upon regaining consciousness Justin immediately contacted the authorities, providing them with th kidnappers’ whereabouts and eventually returning hsafely.

However, Grant was not as fortunate as Justin.

Enraged, the ruthless kidnappers beat Grant to a pulp, a him inside a cramped shipping container for five days without food or water. Despite being family, Grant only managed to survive by drinking his own urine.

Three days later, after receiving the hefty ransom, the kidnappers stripped Grant naked, bound him tightly, and callously dumped him outside the gates of the Tideview Manor in broad daylight before brazenly making their escape.

As a result of the brutal beatings and prolonged confinement in a sealed space, Grant suffered damage to his internal organs and severe oxygen deprivation, leading to premature aging of his bodily functions. The medical expenses for his treatment and hospitalization alone amounted to over $500,000 per day.

In other words, Grant's life depended solely on money over the years.

This incident cast a lifelong trauma on the entire Salvador family.

It was precisely because of this that Justin felt immense guilt toward his elder brother.

Besides, this was also why Gregory who had always been stern exacting, showed extrfavoritism toward his eldest son and harbored resentment toward Justin.

“But now that you're the heir, he shouldn't meddle in your busine lan remained indignant. “The last tyou didn’t show up, the management of the company already complained about you. His intervention at that crucial moment, reaching a collaboration deal, has garnered much support for him within the company. Even Chairman Salvador has been in frequent contact with him lately.” “Mr. Salvador, | know you're loyal and compassionate, but the Salvadors are nothing like the Thompsons. Blood ties mean nothing in the face of power! You know better than anyone how you've made it through all these years! Even if Mr. Grant saved your life back then, even if he treated you well, you two are just half-brothers, and he’s the eldest son of the family. Can you really guarantee that he has no ulterior motives? Can you guarantee that he has no ambitions regarding the Salvador Corporation?” lan’s spit flew everywhere as he expressed his concerns, clearly exasperated.

Justin felt his breath hitch. His eyes were filled with sadness.

“Also, don’t you find it suspicious?” lan continued, his mind sharp in critical moments like this. “He talks about being indifferent to fand fortune, but he knows every detail about our collaboration with Journey Ventures. What does that tell you? It tells you that he hasn't been idle these past few years. He's been monitoring you and the Salvador Corporation! On top of that, Mr. Grant was sitting right next to Journey Venture’s chairman during the video conference. It's obvious that he had everything arranged advance and had been operating in the shadows for stime! Upon hearing this, Justin remained composed, though his eyes betrayed deeper contemplation.

“Mr. Salvador, one must remain vigilant at all times. Don’t let someone steal something rightfully yours from under your nose!” “lan, what if...” Justin's eyelashes trembled slightly. “If one day Grant's health improves and he returns to Savrow, intending to reclaim the position of CEO, what do you think | should do? Should | hand over what | have now without a fight?”
