Chapter 551
After Justin was barely given the green light to be discharged, he was
busy for the next three days tackling the work that had snowballed during his hospitalization.
In the past few days, his health condition has been like a roller coaster ride. He was surviving on
supplements and medicine from Bella. Justin clung to lan’s help with the external treatments as he
prayed for a quick rebound.
Justin could not protect his loved ones without his health.
“It’s time for your medicine, Mr. Salvador.” lan placed the medicine and a bottle of water on the tray
before carrying it to Justin.
Justin was reviewing some documents at his desk. He responded, ”
I’m busy. Later.”
“Um, if you don’t take your meds on time, I will report your
misbehavior to the young madam.”
lan looked justified. “The young madam contacted me the other day,
instructing me to watch you take your meds. I am supposed to report back to her if there’s a problem. If
the young madam finds out that
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou won’t take your meds like a good boy, she’s not going to be happy with you.”
Justin put down his pen, grabbed the pills, and swallowed them with a gulp of water right away.
lan nodded with satisfaction, feeling amused and regretful.
If Justin had listened three years ago, he could probably have had enough children with the young
madam to start a little league by now.
Instead, Justin remained single and chose the thorny path of
humiliation in his desperate bid to reclaim his ex-wife’s affections. Justin was in for a long ride.
“I told you to keep an eye on Bella. Did you do that?” The bitterness sank in as Justin swallowed the pill
with a frown.
He pulled out a drawer and fished a piece of chocolate out. He unwrapped the wrapper and stuffed the
chocolate piece into his
mouth.
The piece of chocolate was part of the snacks Bella left in the house. Justin dug out the junk food and
kept it in his office drawer for safekeeping.
When Justin was feeling down and strained, he would seek solace in the sweet delight.
That was just sad.
“I did. I heard that Chairman Thompson’s third wife, Celeste, is having a birthday celebration soon. I
think the young madam is organizing the party for her at the hotel.”
“Celeste used to be a celebrity, right?” Justin asked indifferently.
“Yes, that’s right. Celeste is my mom’s idol. When I was young, her shows were always on TV at home.
My mom is a huge fan. She even
bought the same outfits that Celeste wore in her TV shows. Sigh… It’s
a shame she left showbiz so soon. My mom was upset for a long time because Celeste no longer
acted. Celeste was the goddess of
many fans at the time,” Ian lamented. The mention of Celeste made him an eager beaver.
“Why did she retire from showbiz out of the blue?” Justin asked.
“Erm, my mom said that Celeste was suspected of taking illegal drugs and was canceled. It was a
pretty huge deal back then, and
Celeste was nearly ruined. Chairman Thompson later cleared her
name, but the damage was already done. Since she lost her fame,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe simply retired from the limelight. I’ve got to give it to Chairman Thompson. He’s been lucky in the
dating scene. He came to the
rescue when Celeste needed help the most. I guess no woman can
resist a knight in shining armor.”
lan said while glancing at Justin. There was a hint of sarcasm in his
undertones.
As expected, Justin tensed his jawline and was hurt by the remark.
That was not the end. “If I can be blunt, your former father-in-law has
a lot of wives, and yet they are all one big family. His wives are
committed to him. You can’t even deal with the young madam.
Maybe you should meet with Chairman Thompson and get some
word of advice from him.”
Justin grimaced and hissed through clenched teeth. “Advice from him? So you want me to ask
Chairman Thompson about how to nail his daughter? Have you lost it?”
