Chapter 368
“Even though Bella and I are divorced, and she’s no longer mine, she’s
still off-limits.” Justin took a step forward as rage flickered in his eyes, icy and intense.
Gregory shuddered. The father and son locked gazes in
confrontation.
Bethany was intimidated by the stern look on Justin’s face.
Nevertheless, she pulled herself together and came behind Gregory at the desk with an
ingratiating smile. She kneaded his shoulders. “Don’t get into it with Justin because of
Bella, Dad. She has the upper hand for now, but the game isn’t over. The ultimate victor is
yet to be
determined.”

Gregory asked eagerly.
“Dad, if you give me a chance to take over the project, I have m ay of winning Ada over.”
Bethany added with a confident smile, “Ada might have announc that her wedding will be
held at KS World Hotel, but nothing ever goe as planned, don’t you think?”
Justin frowned.
He knew his half-sister well. Bethany was always hungry for power,
but she did not have the brains to match her ambition.
However, Bethany had the nerve to compete with him this time. She
looked like she had it in the bag.
Justin believed something fishy was going on.
“Very well! I knew I could always count on you. You have aspirations and ambitions.”
Gregory smiled contently and took Bethany’s hand. “I’ll leave you in charge of getting Ada
to have her wedding with us. Your brother will do the handover with you later. Justin,
you’re off this project. I don’t want you getting involved with Bella again. Just leave
everything to Bethany.”
Justin pulled a stoic face without saying a word.
Gregory would never compliment his accomplishments, but he would not hesitate to
punish Justin and strip him of power the moment something went wrong.
Firstly, Gregory did not think an illegitimate child like Justin was good enough. Secondly,
Gregory fretted over the idea of Justin
overpowering him:
“Thank you for the opportunity, Daddy!” Bethany clung happily to Gregory’s neck.
“I will reward you once you are successful.”

Just tell me. Is it a villa with a sea view or a fancy sports car?”
“No. That’s not what I want.”
Bethany simpered. “I’m your daughter, a member of the Salvador
family. I want to contribute to the family business too. If I win Ada over, can I become the
general manager of the Salvador Hotel? Given an opportunity, I can prove my
management skills are superior to Bella’s.”
With his breath hitched, Justin smirked.
So that was what Bethany was after.
“Alright, you have my word. If you can prove your worth, I will put you
in charge of the hotel.” Gregory was open to the idea.
“Thank you, Dad!” Bethany smirked at Justin.
She could already imagine Justin with his tail tucked between his legs
when she took over the hotel management.
