Chapter 217

However, Mary was not worried about Rachel because she knew that Rachel had never been a weak

and submissive person.

Nonetheless…

“But I still think we should make the Smith family bankrupt!” Mary looked at Rachel with a hint of

persistence in her eyes.

She gritted her teeth in hatred when she thought of those ungrateful people from the Smith family.

If Rachel hadn’t appeared three years ago, the Smith family wouldn’t have existed in Seaxas.

It was no exaggeration to say that without Rachel back then, there would be no upstart Smith family in

Seaxas!

“One should never forget those who helped them in difficult times.” However, these heartless people

were not only ungrateful, but they also wanted to go against Rachel!

Rachel could not help but laugh. “It’s not worth it to gain a pyrrhic victory.” Moreover, there was still

something she had yet to figure out.

Before she figured it out, she would let the Smith family be free for a while. Mary glanced at the clock

and raised her eyebrows. Her eyes flickered with a sly light. “It’s time for afternoon tea. Shall we go?”

“Let’s go.” Rachel said, “The greatest benefit of being a boss is that you have the final say when you go

to and from work!”

This was the biggest thought Rachel had since she became the CEO of the Johnson Corporation.

The two of them took the elevator down to the underground parking lot.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they walked out of the elevator, Eddie, who was dressed in a suit,

approached them.

He nodded politely and respectfully at Mary. Then, he looked at Rachel and said humbly, “Miss Grey,

Mr. Jones has been waiting for you.”

Rachel was slightly stunned. “He has been waiting for me?”

Eddie’s smiled faintly. “Mr. Jones is worried about you. He has been waiting

for you here since the incident happened.”

“So David was already here when he called?”

Rachel looked past Eddie at the car parked in the dark.

The person in the car seemed to have sensed something and slowly lowered the car window.

Behind the car window, a well–defined face gradually appeared. His facial. features were exquisite and

well–defined. It was perfect.

Especially that pair of exquisite and deep eyes. Even a casual gaze revealed strong and fierce

intimidation, making one feel astonished.

Mary’s eyes flickered with excitement and curiosity. When she looked into the man’s eyes, her throat

seemed to be tightly gripped by an invisible hand, and she forgot to breathe for a moment.

At this moment, Rachel said hesitantly, “Well, I…”

Before Rachel could finish, she heard Mary say, “I completely understand! Love over friendship!”

Mary’s words left Rachel at a loss of words.

“Can you lend me your car keys? My car is still parked at the Hilton Hotel!”

“Drive safe on the road.”

Mary waved at Rachel with the car key and turned around to leave.

When she heard the car door close, she immediately took out her phone and called Lucas. “Something

big happened to your sister!”

Lucas, who was on the other end of the line, spat. “What the fuck?”

“Ugh, I’m serious!” Mary stomped her feet anxiously. She explained immediately, “Rae–Rae left with a

man. I’m sending the car’s license plate number to you. You have to check it later!”

Lucas immediately perked up. There was a hint of disdain in his tone. “Send it over quickly and let me

have a look!”

“My intuition tells me that you are no match for this man,” Mary said faintly.

Lucas felt as if he had been insulted. “Mae, you’re just boosting others‘ morale and lowering one’s

prestige! Cut the crap and quickly send me that man’s license plate number! I’m going to investigate

him from top to

bottom!”
