"Jace beat up Clarice?" Justin repeated coldly, his tone sharp.

"Yes! He landed a solid punch on her! I saw it clearly in the surveillance footage. It was brutal!" lan exhaled sharply, releasing pent-up frustration. "I always thought they were close, like two peas in a pod, but it looks like trouble is brewing in their little paradise."

Drew quickly wiped his eyes and listened closely.

lan then floated a daring theory. "Mr. Salvador, do you think Jace might be our breakthrough? Is it possible he's been at odds with Clarice for a while, or perhaps he's grown tired of working under Grant? All he might need is a nudge to turn against them. After all, wasn't it Yvonne's hatred of Christopher's past actions that made her join our side?"

Justin neither affirmed nor dismissed the theory. Instead, he responded, "Your suggestion might be true, but we can't say for sure. People's motivations can be hard to pin down. We've only interacted with Jace a handful of times, and they were all high-stakes situations. I'm honestly not sure what he's truly thinking."

lan sighed before asking anxiously, "Mr. Salvador, the press conference is coming up in just two days. Do you have a plan? Are we just going to let Grant stir up trouble? To be honest, Dr. Wagner's statement alone may not be enough. The blood test results are legitimate and valid. We need another way to prove your innocence!"

"Ian, thank you," Justin replied, catching lan off guard and leaving him momentarily speechless.

"These past days, you've been running around tirelessly. I'm no longer the president of the Salvador Corporation. You can take a break now. There's no need to stay on edge all the time," Justin said, his voice calm and unreadable.
