Chapter 112
Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
Her supporter?
It turned out that there was really unreasonable favoritism in this world. There would be people who
would tolerate your indifference and accept everything about you.
Rachel Grey felt like her chest had been thumped lightly, and a warm current gradually filled her broken
heart. She felt warm and cozy all over.
At this moment, she really wanted to run up to him, hug him tightly, and you, David Jones.â
say,
âThank
She thought, âThank you for showing up when I was in such a sorry state and bringing me a trace of
warmth..
âThank you for standing on my side and believing me unconditionally.â
Although Old Mr. Smith did not know Davidâs identity, he could tell that David was not someone to be
underestimated.
Old Mr. Smith narrowed his eyes, shifting his gaze between David and Rachel. Then, he sighed and
said flatly, âWhat are you all waiting for? Apologize now! Otherwise, donât even think about stepping in
my house from now on!â
In other words, Old Mr. Smith wanted to sever ties with them.
If that were the case, wouldnât all of Old Mr. Smithâs assets fall into the hands of Old Mr. Smithâs eldest
son if he passed away?
Upon hearing this, some of them finally lost their cool and panicked. A man stood up and apologized,
âMiss Grey, Iâm sorry. We were wrong earlier. Please accept my sincere apology.â
Rachel sat on the chair and did not react at all. She was fiddling with a cup in her hand as if
deliberately waiting for someone else to do the same.
The group of people looked at one another and stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do.
It wasnât until the Smith familyâs second uncle broke the silence. He nudged his wife. forward, saying,
âWhat are you waiting for? Hurry and apologize!â
âWhat was that for?â the Smith familyâs second aunt glared at him angrily. âApologize yourself if you
want to!â
Old Mr. Smith was getting older day by day. No one could guarantee that an accident would not
happen. They would regret it for life if they missed out on dividing Old Mr. Smithâs assets because of
this incident.
At the thought of this, Second Uncle Smith, who had always been afraid of his wife, became even more
determined. âIf you donât apologize today, weâll get a divorce!â
Second Aunt Smith stared at him in disbelief. Her eyes were slightly red. âFrederick Smith, how dare
you⦠How dare you ask me for a divorce!â
âIâd rather not want a sharpâtongued woman like you!â Second Uncle Smith looked at her

with a dark expression. Iâll give you two choices. Either apologize to Miss Grey now, or weâll divorce
and you can leave with nothing!â
Second Aunt Smith subconsciously cried and sought protection from members of the Smith family.
However, she realized that everyone had an indifferent attitude. They even looked at her with some
resentment and hatred. She felt threatened. It was like someone had held a knife to her neck.
At this moment, she seemed to feel the terror of being the target of public criticism.
She subconsciously straightened her back and clenched her fists tightly. Her lips trembled
uncontrollably as she said softly, âIâm sorryâ¦
Her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
Rachel did not seem to hear her at all. She just sipped her tea quietly.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Rachel was dissatisfied with the apology.
Hence, the others started to give Second Aunt Smith suggestions on how she should apologize. âYour
voice was too soft just now.â
âAnd youâre not sincere enough.â
âAnd also⦠When you apologize, you have to seem more willing. Youâre apologizing to seek
forgiveness, so donât put on airs.â
Rachel looked at the ridiculous scene in front of her silently. A trace of imperceptible mockery flashed
across her eyes.
See, this was human nature.
Once their own interests were involved, there were no such things as familial ties, let alone the Smith
family, whose members looked kind and united on the surface but stepped on each other in private.
If Second Aunt Smithâs death could suffice as an apology, they would have ripped her into . pieces.
