Chapter 769

Gregory and Shannon were home at the moment.

Gregory sat on the sofa, reading the news on his phone with a solemn expression.

Although he had hired a top-notch PR team to deal with the scandal regarding Justin and Zoe, the

gossip and speculation online had never stopped.

As the president of the Salvador Corporation, Justin did not show his face or publish a public statement

to clarify the situation. It would only fuel more speculation, causing him to tarnish his image.

Shannon sat at her dressing table, meticulously taking care of the hair she had invested over a million

dollars annually to maintain.

In the past, she offered up her own body to Gregory to seduce him.

“Greg, come here.” Shannon turned around and hooked her fing at Gregory.

“What?” Gregory’s eyes did not leave his phone screen.

“Just come, Greg. Touch my hair. I’ve always taken good care of it you.”

Shannon’s voice was sweet and coy as she flirted. “Come and feel it. Is it the same as before?”

“Shannon.”

Gregory halted. He had been pondering if Celeste’s incident had something to do with Shannon for a

long time, but he still did not ask the question in the end.

He mentioned something else instead. “Ryan confessed to Carrie in front of me and Dad.”

“What? When did it happen!?” Shannon immediately stood up, unable to control her expression from

being overjoyed.

“Some time ago, when Justin was hospitalized, he brought Carrie to visit Justin.”

“That’s wonderful news! Oh my!”

Shannon was so happy that she clapped her hands. “What’s Dad’s attitude? He watched Ryan grow

up, and our families are close to each other with similar backgrounds. He must agree to this marriage,

right?”

“You’ve always tried to match Bethany with Ryan and didn’t give Carrie a thought. Why did you

suddenly change your mind now?” Gregory asked calmly. Shannon rolled her eyes. “Greg, you make it

sound as if I don’t about Carrie. After all, she is also my daughter. How can I not w the best for her?

Bethany’s personality doesn’t match Ryan’s. They are just not destined for each other. If Ryan likes

Carrie, I’d definitely support this perfect match. As a mother, I want my daughter to marry well.”

“Although Carrie and Ryan are dating, it hasn’t been made public yet. We can still turn back.” Gregory’s

brows furrowed. “Once the relationship is public, things will not be so easy.”

“Greg… What do you mean? Don’t you want Carrie to marry Ryan?” Shannon questioned him

anxiously.

“When Claire Hoffman came to discuss Justin’s marriage, she left without even seeing Justin’s face.

Didn’t you see her expression as she left? It was full of resentment. Ryan is her only son. How could

she accept Carrie as her daughter-in-law?” Gregory frowned, feeling frustrated.

Shannon was stunned.

Thinking about how Claire’s face was red with anger, she thought that her daughter’s path to a wealthy

and influential family was completely blocked.

No. It was not over yet!

That dumbass Ryan was willing to take Carrie off her hands, so she must do everything in her power to

marry off Carrie!

Shannon sighed with a worried expression and walked over to Gregory, massaging his shoulders as

she said gently, “Greg, you seem to be in a bad mood these days. Are you troubled by this matter?

There’s a way to resolve everything and solve all our problems.”

“What is it?”

“Let Justin marry Zoe. Everyone will be happy. If we take Zoe, Mrs. Hoffman will accept Carrie.”

Shannon got excited as she spoke, her eyes shining with greed.

“Don’t you know who Justin likes? He only has eyes for Bella. There’s no way he could tolerate any

other woman.”

Gregory’s brows furrowed as he felt more frustrated. “It’s been over 20 years. Don’t you understand his

temper by now?”

“Justin likes Bella, but does she reciprocate his feelings?”
