Chapter 486

“I heard from Jimmy that you weren’t coming. Why did you suddenly change your mind?” Rachel

glanced at David.

David looked at her. “I happened to pass by.”

Rachel raised her eyebrows slightly, obviously not believing him. “Marina said it was a coincidence, and

you just happened to pass by? The Jones family has many coincidences.”

Hearing her teasing, a hint of indulgence appeared in David’s eyes. “Marina has her own goals, and

she’s completely unaware that I’m right behind, watching her.” Of course, the main reason was that

David had heard that Old Mr. Shain intended to introduce Jimmy to Rachel.

Previously, when Iris had gotten married, David had purposefully interrupted. David thought that Old

Mr. Johnson would have given up on this idea, but hadn’t expected him to be so persistent.

He lowered his eyes to hide his contemplation. “Let’s go. Aren’t you going to show me around?”

“Then let me think about where we should start.” Rachel stood up, placing one hand on her hip with a

leader’s aura.

She looked around and noticed the sea of flowers at the foot of the mountain. “Let’s start with those

flowers!”

“Okay.”

The garden cosmos that covered the mountains and plains were dazzling.

Under the bright sunlight, Rachel spread her arms and walked through the sea of flowers. Her long

black hair flowed naturally in the air and she turned around suddenly, smiling. “David, is it pretty?”

Their gazes met, and David’s eyes turned gentle. “Yes.”

The sea of flowers in front of him was beautiful, but the person in front of him.

was even more so.

Nearby, Eddie had just hung up the phone. He hesitated before walking forward. “Mr. Jones, the

meeting is about to begin.”

David responded with a lukewarm attitude.

“Meeting?!” Rachel looked at David in surprise.

Her eyes shone with light from the reflection of the sun, almost like attractive

stars.

David’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down, and his eyes filled with infatuation that even he was

unaware of. “Marina wants to interfere in Seaxas’ business. Seaxas Four Families should think of a

way to handle this situation.”

Rachel frowned slightly. “So, she’s here because she’s targeting the Johnson family?”

“Yes and no, David said.

“What do you mean?”

“To everyone, the Johnson family is like a slab of steak. They want to replace them but more than that,

they want to swallow them whole.”

As he spoke, David’s thin fingers slid down the smooth outline of her face pausing on her delicate chin.

He leaned forward and pressed a kiss onto her lips.

Surrounded by the romantic sea of flowers under the bright sunlight, the two of them hugged

passionately.

Rachel tiptoed and h**ked her arms around his neck, responding awkwardly to him.

After the kiss, Rachel’s lips parted slightly as she breathed softly. Her eyes were filled with passion and

beauty, much more attractive than the sea of flowers around them.

David hugged her tightly against him and kissed her forehead. His deep and cool voice was filled with

passion as he spoke quietly, “Be good and wait for me to come back.”

Rachel nodded and watched as David left.

David’s words were still echoing in her mind.

She suddenly understood why Marina had taken issue with the Johnson family’s title as the head family

of Seaxas.

Rachel had thought that Marina had been thinking of herself, but there was another reason.

Marina might have wanted to replace the Johnson family’s position, or she might have wanted to

support another family to take over this position. However, the Johnson family was the head of the Four

Families and had maintained this position in Seaxas for many years. They weren’t to be trifled with.

If Marina really wanted to attack the Johnson family, Rachel would protect the Johnson family even if it

meant risking her life!
