Chapter 241
“Justin! You’re taking advantage of the situation!” Gregory looked shocked as he slammed the table and stood up.
“We have to settle the score, Dad. Isn’t this what you taught me since I was a child?” Justin looked calm and leaned back in his chair slowly.
“You are so greedy! You already have a fair share. I even let you become president, which should have belonged to your eldest brother. Yet here you are asking to be the deputy chairman of the board! Why don’t you just ask me to step down as chairman?!” Gregory scolded angrily.
Justin curled his thin lips into a faint sneer. His dark eyes were unreadable. “Think about it carefully. Do I get more from you, or do you get more from me? Since I was a child, you have put a price on everything that I got. You clearly know why I am the president of Salvador Corporation, so why do you paint me as a ruthless invader? We’re alone here. Don’t you feel tired from acting?”
Gregory’s face turned red. He was rendered speechless.
“The position of deputy chairman in exchange for Salvador Corporation surviving a serious business crisis smoothly. You can decide what’s best.” Justin stood up and walked to the door.
Suddenly, Justin stopped and added, “Of course, you can also continue to support Shannon against all objections. That is, if you don’t feel embarrassed.”
Justin clenched his fists and went back to the office, slamming his door shut.

It had been a long time since Justin felt this happy.
When Justin saw how Gregory worked hard and racked his brains for Shannon yet was still unable to do anything about the situation, Justin just felt so rejuvenated and thrilled.
However, Justin had to admit that he could only achieve the current results with Bella’s help.
Originally, Justin only wanted to stop Shannon from becoming the deputy chairman of the board. He did not expect to make such a big fuss because it would affect Salvador Corporation’s stock price and affect everyone. Thus, he could not take the risk.
However, Bella had always liked to use earth-shattering means. She probably did not expect that such a move would have the miraculous effect of not only suppressing Shannon, but also giving Justin the opportunity to bargain with Gregory. Thus completely eliminating Shannon’s idea of checking on Justin in the

company.
However, when Justin thought of Bella’s harsh words that hurt his self-esteem and her cold and heartless attitude, his eyes darkened.
“Thank her? Why should I? That woman’s original intention was to snatch my project. Since she succeeded in stealing my project, consider us even now.’
At this time, his phone vibrated.
Justin took it out, looked at it, frowned slightly, and answered, “What do

Ryan’s voice was hoarse and weak. He sounded like a resentful wife who had been abandoned.” I have purchased three global limited-edition sports cars, found four female celebrities to drink with me at the bar, and opened expensive bottles of champagne to drink until dawn. But my mind is so chaotic right now. Why can’t I relieve this tightness in my chest? Is this what it feels like to be heartbroken? It hurts so much!”
“It may not be a broken heart, but it could be angina. I suggest you go to the hospital and get it checked out. Stop bothering me.” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Justin was frustrated. Just as he was about to hang up, Ryan said anxiously, “Why don’t we celebrate your stepmother’s arrest with a drink then?”
Justin pursed his lower lip and said, “Fine. Give me a time and place.”
