Grant's honesty caught Bella completely off guard.
Initially, she thought that if Grant denied the medicine came from RC Biotech, it would indicate he was hiding something. It would likely be a problem with either him or the medicine. Even if it were not the specific drug Carrie was taking, it would still reveal something suspicious.
But now she was at a loss for words.
"To be clear, it's not just RC Biotech. I have dealings with many medical research institutions in Meridan." Grant coughed lightly with a helpless smile. "Over the years, I've been a lab rat, trying countless types of medication. I've tried anything that might improve my condition. Due to this, I've come to be familiar with RC Biotech and understand more about their drugs."
"Mr. Grant, with the advancements in modern medicine, your health will definitely improve if you persist." As a kind-hearted person, Bella offered Grant, someone tormented by long-term pain, the most basic comfort.
At this moment, neither of them noticed that Justin stood hidden in the shadows on the balcony, observing everything with his dark eyes.
"Ms. Thompson, do you truly wish for my recovery?" Grant's gentle eyes curved into a smile. "After all, I'm the eldest son of the Salvador family. If I recover, I might compete with Justin for the position of heir. Do you really want to see that?"
Bella's rosy lips curled slightly, bright and clear. "Mr. Grant, if Justin's position as heir comes at the cost of your lifelong health, then honestly, that position isn't worth it. First of all, I love Justin for who he is. His background and status mean nothing to me. Even if he were to sever ties with the Salvador Corporation one day, I wouldn't hold any grudges against him. It wouldn't diminish my love for him in the slightest."
Grant furrowed his brows.
Hidden in the dark, Justin widened his eyes. His heart swelled with emotion.
"I would like to see your family united, supporting each other through thick and thin, not scheming against each other like the Iversons, resulting in fratricide. If your health improves someday, Justin and I would be genuinely happy for you. And if you wish to compete for the position of heir, then please do so fairly with Justin."
Bella's open-hearted confession showcased her altruism and leadership qualities.
"Ms. Thompson, your sincere feelings for Justin make me quite envious," Grant said, gazing at her intensely. His eyes were deep and warm, filled with earnest longing.
Bella smiled gently. "As long as you treat others with sincerity, you will also find your own happiness someday, Mr. Grant."
"I'll take your kind words to heart."
Grant shot a meaningful glance as he slowly turned his wheelchair, indicating he was about to leave.
Justin's dark eyes narrowed, his tall figure swiftly slipping behind a wall.
His heart pounded inexplicably hard.
"By the way, Ms. Thompson."
Grant paused, turning back. His tone carried a hint of concern. "While I was in Meridan, I heard about your
situation. Since then, I've been searching for a way to help you. I have some promising leads now. There's not only medication that might help, but I've also found a well-known gynecologist. She has been a private doctor for royal family members and the first lady. Besides, she has encountered similar cases multiple times. Under her care, you have more than a 60% chance of recovery. You are such a young and outstanding individual. It would be a real pity if you lost the chance to be a mother."
Upon hearing this, Justin felt his heart clench tighter and tighter, almost to the point of stopping.
His eyes grew slightly teary, tinged with a faint red, and his hands, with distinct knuckles, trembled as they clutched his clothes.
