Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 515

There were many guests at the Pearson Family Estate this time around, and the crowd was on par with the one at Gordon's birthday banquet last year. However, unlike the times before, when Justin would usually steer clear of the crowd and hide in a quiet place, he was now staying by Gordon's side and seldom excused himself.

Meanwhile, although Gordon was using a cane, he looked sprightly as he diligently introduced Justin to the guests passing by.

His speech was something along the lines of 'Justin was in ill health for the past few years and was recuperating at home. Now that he has recovered a lot, if you have a chance to meet him in the future, please be nice to him.'

A distance away, Oscar had a wine glass in his hand as he whispered, "Looks like Old Master Pearson is determined to squeeze Justin into Pearson Group."

Freddie clicked his tongue. "Do you think he has any other way? It's already a mess in Lachstein."

Leanna looked at Justin. He was sitting in a wheelchair, and despite him staying by Gordon's side, he never spoke a word throughout the whole process. His expression was cold as if he were a puppet on strings.

She frowned slightly. "Justin didn't do it willingly."

"Well, if he were interested in Pearson Group, he wouldn't have waited until now," Oscar commented.

Following that, Leanna said, "But if Old Master Pearson is keeping him nearby, we don't have a way to ask him anything."

Gracefully, Freddie took a sip of the champagne in his glass. "We can't just keep waiting like this. Watch this."

He had just finished speaking when he strode forward and went up to Gordon with a smile. "Mr. Pearson."

Gordon was all smiles as he chatted with the people around him, but when he saw Freddie, his expression sank a little as he acclaimed indifferently, "Oh, it's you. When did you come back?"

"Quite some time ago." Freddie looked at Justin. "I heard that Justin got hurt. Was it serious?"

Justin shook his head lightly and said the first words he had ever spoken that night, "It's nothing serious."

Freddie gave an 'oh', then scooted closer to examine Justin. "I see that you have a scratch on your forehead. Be careful not to get infected."
