In that moment, Matt swiftly stepped in, firmly grasping the woman's wrists with both hands to restrain her, preventing her from making any move, let alone harming Nigel in the slightest.
"Monsters! Devils! Your entire Salvador family is a pack of heartless demons!" The woman's eyes were wide with rage as she struggled and shouted, "I won't let this go! I swear your grandson will pay in blood, unless you killright now!" The commotion quickly caught the attention of the park's security guards. Two of them sprang into action, forcibly removing the agitated woman from the premises.
"Chairman Salvador, this is a serious situation. We can't ignore it," Matt said, his usual gentle demeanor now replaced by a sharp intensity. "If she starts spreading rumors, it could stir up public criticism and severely damage the Salvador family's reputation. Should I take care of the problem?" "Take care of what?!" Nigel clutched his chest in agony, his face pale as he struggled to speak. “Her family has already suffered enough because of me... What more do you want? Do you wantto be the one to push her over the edge?" Before he could finish, pain etched across his features, and his frail body began to tremble as he collapsed.

"Ms. Thompson! How did you..." Matt stared in astonishment.

I have a few words I'd like to share with Grandpa Nigel first.” Matt looked conflicted. "But, given Old Master Nigel's condition..." Bella hesitated for a moment, biting her lip. "Then notify Justin instead." It was not that she was eager to see Justin. Rather, under the current circumstances, Gregory's appearance would undoubtedly complicate matters, and Grant was even less trustworthy.
Matt nodded seriously and left the room to make the call.
Steadying herself, Bella approached the bedside with gentle steps, sat down, and clasped the old man's withered hand. "Grandpa Nigel, how are you feeling? Are you still in pain?" "Much better... Bella, thank you..." Nigel's eyelids were half-closed, his breath faint and weak. "If it weren't for you savingin time, I'm afraid I wouldn't have made it this time."
