Chapter 479

hapter 479

Lucas Johnson opened his eyes and glanced at him nonchalantly. “How dare a nobody like you covet

something you have no right to! You’re biting off more than you can chew!”

His tone was indifferent, but it was both chilling and authoritative.

Everyone in the room fell silent instantly.

It was rumored that the men of the Johnson family were extremely doting to Miss Grey, and Lucas’

attitude was enough to confirm this.

The man who was called a nobody could not even maintain his composure.

Given that the people here were all wealthy young men who were used to being flattered, they had

never suffered such grievances before.

If it were anyone else who insulted them, they would have already gotten even.

However, the person in front of them was Lucas Johnson, the heir of the Johnson family!

No matter how much resentment they had, they could only forcefully endure it with a smile.

The atmosphere turned chilly immediately.

Fortunately, at this moment, the staff informed everyone that lunch was ready and invited everyone to

move to the dining room. Only then did the atmosphere

ease.

Old Mr. Johnson walked right in front, with the Shain family, the Page family, and the Green family

beside him.

Meanwhile, Rachel Grey followed behind everyone else lazily.

Lucas Johnson was worried that she would be bored, so he deliberately slowed down.

He looked at Rachel’s attire with disdain and lectured her in disappointment, “What the hell are you

wearing? It’s fine if you usually dress like this, but don’t you know that this is a special occasion? All the

other women are trying to outshine each other in terms of beauty, so why don’t you take the opportunity

to show off your good looks? What a waste!”

Although he could not stand how revealing the other women’s clothes were, Rachel did not have to

dress so conservatively.

Rachel raised an eyebrow and retorted, “The Chamber of Commerce didn’t give me any orders to

dress up, right? Besides, those women are here for marriage, which I do not need.”

Lucas was rendered speechless.

There was no way a woman like her would be interested in those men.

The group walked to the dining room and took their seats one by one.

The other juniors were all seated at the end and only Rachel was sitting beside Old Mr. Johnson.

This special treatment made the eyes of the other socialites turn red with jealousy.

“Look at her sl*tty face. No wonder the men of the Johnson family are bewitched by her!”

“She definitely has some means. Otherwise, there was no way she would be able to enter the Johnson

family.”

“All of you, stop talking. Don’t let Old Mr. Johnson hear what you are saying!”

Upon hearing this, the juniors sitting at the end of the table subconsciously looked up at Old Mr.

Johnson.

They coincidentally met Old Mr. Johnson’s sharp gaze and were instantly taken aback. They

immediately lowered their eyes in panic and quietly ate their food.

Old Mr. Johnson retracted his gaze and looked at Old Mr. Shain before asking, “Where’s the person

you arranged?”

“He’ll be here soon,” replied Old Mr. Shain.

As soon as he said that, they heard footsteps at the door.

Rachel looked up and saw Jimmy Shain walking in from afar.

She subconsciously looked behind Jimmy Shain, trying to find that familiar figure. However, after

staring for a long while, that person still hadn’t appeared.

Rachel’s gaze landed on Jimmy again. The red polka-dotted shirt he was wearing looked familiar.

She narrowed her eyes and glanced at Mary Green’s face.

She immediately understood what was going on when she saw Mary looking at Jimmy gently.

Her eyes flashed meaningfully.

When did the two of them get together?

Why had she not noticed anything before?

As she was thinking about these, Old Mr. Johnson and Old Mr. Shain had already arranged for Jimmy

to sit beside her.
