Chapter 400

Rachel stared at him without blinking for a moment. Suddenly, her red lips curled into a smile, and the

depths of her almond–shaped eyes flickered. “David, you’re really strange…”

He would never ask what had happened, but he could always see through her thoughts and easily

reveal her true emotions at this moment.

She thought that she had hidden it well, but every time she faced him, she was like a person with no

secrets.

Swallowing her sadness and the pain of her slightly twisting heart, she leaned forward against his

chest. “I’m fine. Really.”

However, Lily’s appearance caught her off guard.

“I’ll let you lean on my shoulder for a while.” David reached out and stroked her slender back as if he

was comforting an injured child.

In fact, from the moment Lily appeared, he had already sensed Rachel’s abnormality. However, as a

bystander, he could not empathize with her. All he could do was silently accompany her.

Rachel looked up at him. Her expression was calm, but there was a smile hidden in the corners of her

eyes. “Just for a while?”

“If you want, you can do it for a lifetime.”

“No regrets?”

“No regrets!” David pulled her into his arms again and hugged her tightly. His deep and cold voice was

tinged with sexy laziness as it rang in her ears. “I’ll be Rae–Rae’s man in this life, and I still love Rae–

Rae after I die.”

Rachel leaned against his neck obediently and could not help but smile.

Her palm on his chest could clearly feel his vigorous and powerful heartbeat.

She had always thought that the appearance of David was a rose blooming in the desolation in her

heart.

However, now it seemed that he was not only the rose that lured her into love but also the antidote to

her salvation.

Ten minutes later, the two of them left the restaurant.

When they left, Hans and the others walked out of the private room opposite.

As he turned around, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Rachel’s exceptionally eye–catching face

from the corner of his eye. He frowned imperceptibly.

Was that Rachel?

Why was she here?

His gaze turned and landed on David.

Who was this man?

As he was thinking, he heard Louis say, “Mr. Grey, if there’s nothing else, we’ll take our leave first.”

“Alright.” Hans quickly came back to his senses and revealed a fake smile.

After sending off Louis, Hans looked at his daughter, Lily. “Lily, what do you think of Mr. Smith?”

The meaning behind his words was self–evident.

To be fair, Louis’s family background and appearance were indeed many times better than those

playboys who only enjoyed eating, drinking, and having fun.

Unfortunately, she was not interested in Louis.

“Dad, Miss Cruise and Mr. Smith are about to get engaged,” Lily said. “And…”

She quickly glanced at Hans. “And I heard from Miss Cruise that Rachel had been in a relationship with

Mr. Smith for a period of time.”

Her words were ambiguous. Coupled with her obscure and complicated expression, it was easy for

Hans to think in the wrong direction.

Hans frowned and his expression darkened. “What a disgraceful b*stard! She’s really going to

embarrass our Grey family!”

If he had known that Rachel would become like this after leaving the Grey family, he would have frozen

her to death in that snowfield!

Lily and her mother, Rose, looked at each other silently.

“It’s getting late. Let’s go back early,” Rose spoke first.

Hans snorted and left.

After they got into the car, Lily hesitated again and again. She couldn’t help but say, “Dad, Miss Cruise

said that next month will be her birthday party. At that time, she will announce the engagement of the

Cruise family and the Smith family in public. She hopes that I can attend on time.”

“This is a good thing.” The expression on Hans’s face softened a little. He smiled and stroked her head

lovingly. He said unhurriedly, “When the time comes, Daddy and Mommy will with you.”

Facing this obedient, docile, and outstanding daughter, he doted on her from the bottom of his heart.

Lily happily threw herself into his arms. “Daddy, I knew you dote on me the most.”
