Chapter 560
Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
Chapter 560
Olivia stopped in her tracks and subconsciously retreated. âNo! Iâm innocent!â
âWhether you were innocent or not, we naturally have our considerations.â As she spoke, the police
forcefully took her from the scene, disregarding her willingness.
Bertha Cruise saw the situation and rushed forward. âYou canât take her away! My daughter is
wronged!â
The police officer said expressionlessly, âIf she were wrongly accused, we would naturally clear her
name. Now, we have to take her away for investigation. I hope you can cooperate. Otherwise, we will
take measures against you on the grounds of obstructing official business.â
When Bertha heard this, she immediately wanted to retreat.
She looked at Olivia Cruise and pursed her lips. âOlivia, donât worry. Your father and I will think of a
way.â
As she spoke, she took a step to the side.
Seeing Olivia being taken away, Mrs. Wright immediately went up to her. âMiss Cruise, you promised to
give me one million dollars previously. You canât go back on your word!â
âGet lost!â Olivia was extremely annoyed. When she saw Mrs. Wright, who could not do anything right,
she immediately kicked her away without thinking.
Mrs. Wright (sta gg ered) and fell to the ground. âOuch!â
She clutched her chest and struggled to get up. When she looked up, she saw a pair of high heels.
Her gaze slowly moved up.
The moment he saw Lynn, the embarrassment on her face was swept away, and she returned to her
usual bossy attitude. âWhat are you standing there for? Hurry up and help me up!â
As she spoke, she slowly raised an arm, like a queen waiting for someone to serve her.
However, Lynn acted as if she did not hear her and did not move at all.
Seeing that Lynn did not react for a long time, Mrs. Wright frowned, and her eyes were filled with anger.
âYou (da mn bit*h! Do you really want to see your mother make a fool of herself?â
âAre you talking to me?â Lynnâs tone was flat as if she was talking to a stranger.
Mrs. Wright frowned. âNonsense! Youâre my daughter. Who else can I talk to if I donât talk to you?â
âBut weâve already broken off our mother-daughter relationship. From now on, we have nothing to do
with each other.â Lynn said, âYou said yourself that you donât want me as your daughter. Everyone
heard it.â
Over the years, Mrs. Wright had long been used to Lynnâs submissive attitude. Now that she saw
Lynnâs indifference, she was at a loss.
âYou⦠Child, what are you talking about?â Mrs. Wright smiled awkwardly and got up from the ground
with her hands and feet. âWeâre mother and daughter. As the saying goes, blood ties are deep. How
can you sever your relationship with me?â
âThen just take it that Iâm dead,â Lynn answered.
She did not want to be entangled with her mother anymore, nor did she want to waste her breath. She
simply turned around and left.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wright hurriedly chased after her. âWhat right do you have to sever ties with me?
Besides, if you leave, what will happen to your brother? Heâs your biological brother. You canât ignore
his life!â
As Mrs. Wrightâs voice faded away, the reporters at the scene slowly came back to their senses.
No one expected that a press conference would cause so much trouble.
Although the theme of the press conference was obviously off track, the reporters gained a lot. They
watched one drama unfold after another.
Meanwhile, the Cruise family members were already very embarrassed.
In just half a day, the Cruise Group was trending on the internet.
Some mischievous netizens even made memes of Mrs. Wright asking for Olivia Cruise for one million
dollars and watched them repeatedly.
Rachel could not help but smile happily as she watched the drama unfold.
At this moment, there was a knock on her office door.
âCome in!â
As soon as she finished speaking, Linda Galler led Haley Bean and Lynn Wright in.
The moment the two saw Rachel Grey, their pupils constricted and their expressions changed. They
looked at her in disbelief.
âPlease take a seat.â Rachel gestured for them to sit opposite her.
Haley and Lynn looked at each other and sat opposite Rachel nervously.
Rachel looked at their hesitant expressions and said frankly, âIf you have anything to say, feel free to
ask.â
Lynn was the first to speak. âSince youâre managing the Johnson Corporation, why donât you just buy
over the Cruise Group?â
Not long after Johnson Corporationâs Ms. Grey took office, she resolved many of the companyâs
shortcomings neatly. With continuous innovation, Johnson Corporation became famous in the industry.
At the same time, Ms. Greyâs name became more and more popular.
However, everyone only knew that Ms. Greyâs surname was Grey, and her gender was female. The
rest was unknowIL.
Lynn would never have thought that Johnson Corporationâs Ms. Grey was actually Rachel Grey, who
was targeted by Olivia Cruise.
âThe current Cruise Group is not as good as before. Moreover, my analysis of its operations over the
past two years shows a huge problem with its operating funds. In that case, why should I take over?â
The corners of Rachelâs mouth curled into a faint smile. She clearly did not have many expressions, but
it made people inexplicably afraid. âIâm in business, not charity. Even if Johnson Corporation has a big
business, we canât afford to squander like this, right?â
Hearing this, Lynn choked and was unable to refute it.
No one knew the current situation of the Cruise Group better than she did.
It was just a huge paper tiger. If not for Marina Jonesâ sudden appearance and secret support, the
Cruise Group might not have survived this year.
âWhat about the Smith family?â Haley asked. âYou clearly have the ability to make the Smith family and
the Cruise family pay the price, but you let them off time and time again. Youâre indecisive. It doesnât
seem like a characteristic of a decision maker.â
When Rachel heard this, a bright smile appeared on her lips. Her almond-shaped eyes contained a
faint. layer of mockery. âIndeed, I donât lack the ability and capital to make them lose everything
overnight, but a quick death is far less painful than living a life worse than death, right? Compared to
slashing them. down quickly. I prefer watching the fish struggle in the mud.â
Haley and Lynn stared at the woman in front of them.
Her body was clearly filled with powerful aggression, but she smiled innocently and elegantly like an
uninvolved expert. This attitude was probably something Olivia Cruise would never be able to learn in
her life.
The two looked at each other, and a dark, complicated smile flashed across their eyes.
They secretly prayed for Olivia Cruise, hoping she could rot in hell.
âTake a look at this first. If there are no problems, sign it.â Rachel handed them the two contracts she
had prepared in advance.
Lynn was not in a hurry to take it. She looked at Rachel and asked, âWill you continue to sue Olivia
Cruise?â
âNo,â Rachel replied.
Continuing the prosecution could land Olivia in jail, but that was not what she wanted to see, nor was it
what she wanted.
âThen why did you use me to deal with her?â Lynn looked at Rachel in confusion.
