Can’t Win Me Back

Chapter 1920

In Mosgravia, Justin was seated behind a sculpted wooden screen in a tea room filled with incense smoke.

Dressed in white, he looked elegant, divine, and otherworldly, like he had walked out of a painting.

Sheryl muttered quietly.

“The paternity test result you dropped at the press conference was a huge blow to Mr.Javier."

"That was expected."

Justin lowered his gaze.

He said indifferently, "Sophia Kirkman was useless.You can't expect much from her daughter.

"I knew Betty wasn't a Beckett many years ago.I was aware of Sophia Kirkman’s secrets as well."

"Were you? Why didn't you call them out?"

Sheryl looked taken aback.

“Sophia Kirkman abused her position as the family matriarch to misappropriate company funds.Weren't you worried about her actions? What if she got her hands on the company stocks or made Javier Beckett her puppet as she took control of the company? Were you not worried that she would be a threat?"
