Chapter 572
Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
Chapter 572
The smile on Oliviaâs face dissipated a little. She pursed her lips and looked a little aggrieved.
Bertha saw all of this. The gentleness in her eyes faded a little, and there was a sharpness in her eyes.
She asked casually. âLouis, if you have any requests or opinions, you can say them. After all, the
marriage is between you and Olivia. As parents, our opinions are for reference only.â
Louis suddenly came back to his senses. He looked up at Bertha and then at the slightly aggrieved
Olivia. He frowned imperceptibly. After pondering for a long time, he said in a low voice, ââ¦â
Before he could finish, Mrs. Smith interrupted, âOf course, Louis has no objections. He dreamed of
marrying Olivia. After all these years, he finally got what he wanted. Iâm afraid heâll wake up laughing in
his dreams tonight. Isnât that right, Louis?â
Mrs. Smith looked at Louis with a warning gaze.
Louis was slightly stunned. He nodded and replied indifferently, âYes.â
Upon hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Cruise, along with Olivia, had a slightly better look on their face.
During the meal, Olivia clearly noticed that Louis was distracted.
She lowered her head to hide the coldness in her eyes. Her fingers that were holding the fork were
pale, revealing the forbearance and restraint in her heart.
Actually, during the entanglement between Louis and Rachel just now, she was hiding in the dark and
watching clearly.
In the past, she had only guessed that Louis had some feelings for Rachel, but that was just a guess.
However, Louisâ absent-minded state confirmed her guess.
Men were indeed born despicable!
They wouldnât cherish when they got something they wanted, but when they lost it, they started to
regret it.
Even if Louis had feelings for Rachel now, Olivia would never allow anyone to shake her status as
Louisâ
wife!
However, a shotgun weddingâ¦
Oliviaâs hand hidden under the table fell quietly to her belly, and a touch of grief swept across her eyes.
At this moment, Bertha picked up a piece of fish and placed it in her bowl. âHave a try. This fish is very
fresh.â
Olivia came back to her senses and smiled faintly. âThank you, Mom.â
She noticed Berthaâs meaningful gaze and glanced at Louis, who was sitting opposite her. She pursed
her lips and said, âLouis, you try it too.â
As she spoke, she picked up a piece of fish with her fork and placed it on the plate in front of Louis.
Unexpectedly, Louis did not even look at it but put it in his mouth directly.
In the next second, his expression suddenly changed. He covered his neck and coughed drily.
âHey, whatâs going on?â Bertha looked at Louis worriedly.
Mrs Smith was so nervous that she jumped out of her seat. She patted Louisâ back hard. âDid you get
stuck by fishbone?â
Louis nodded. He straightened his neck and swallowed his saliva. The veins on his forehead bulged,
which could tell that he was extremely painful.
Mr. Smith hurriedly stood up. âQuick, letâs go to the hospital!â
The group hurriedly left the private room.
Their hasty movements attracted countless peopleâs attention. The two managers who happened to be
standing in front of Heavenly Private Room and waiting for instructions also saw the scene.
âWhatâs going on?â asked one of the managers.
Richard and Mr. Smith could not help but be stunned when they saw the two managers.
Who the hell was in Heavenly Private Room that was worth two managers personally waiting at the
door?
Louis and Olivia knew very well who was in Heavenly Private Room.
Coincidentally, a command came from the managers earpiece. The two managers hurriedly walked in.
The moment the door was pushed open, the group of people outside the private room curiously craned
their necks to look over.
Then they found that the people inside the private room were almost all people that could only be seen
on television or in magazines. If they could casually befriend one, it would be a great honor for them.
and their business could also easily rise to a higher level.
Indeed, rich and powerful people would only make friends with rich and powerful people.
Everyone sighed and slowly retracted their gazes.
From the corner of their eyes, Richard and Mr. Smith saw an eye-catching face. Their gazes froze, and
their expressions changed instantly.
In an instant, it was as if they had been struck by lightning. They stood still on the ground and watched.
with their eyes widened.
That was⦠Rachel?
Why was she with this group of people?
With Rachelâs rural background, what right did she have to eat at the same table as this group of
people?
What surprised them even more was that everyone in the private room was actually a little respectful to
her.
There was no one in the private room that they could match up to, but the people in the private room.
centered around Rachel.
What the hell was going on?
Richard didnât look good. Mr. Smith had an even worse look.
He vaguely felt that the Smith family seemed to have missed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Ever since Rachel left, the Smith family seemed to have been cursed and began to slowly decline. No
matter how hard they tried, they could not change it.
But on the contrary, after Rachel left the Smith family, she seemed to get her lucky break.
She had actually walked into the upper-class circle of Seaxasâ rich families without their knowledge.
Now,
she was even having a meal at the same table as the rich and powerful people in Seaxas.
If the Smith family hadnât gotten into a fight with Rachel, if Louis hadnât abandoned her at the wedding
ceremony, what would the Smith family be like now?
It might have already become one of the Four Families.
However, it was useless to think about this now.
The engagement of Louis and Olivia had become a fact.
The two of them were going to the city hall to register their marriage tomorrow.
Mr. Smith sighed faintly and helped Louis away.
Louis did not know how he got into the car and arrived at the hospital.
His heart was filled with endless regret.
If he could get to know the people in Heavenly Private Room, it would be a great help to the Smith
Group.
But it was too late now..
Not only that, it seemed that from the moment he abandoned Rachel, everything was developing in a
direction that he could not imagine.
âThis fishbone is not small,â the doctor said as he threw the fishbone and the tweezers in his hand onto
the plate.
Mrs. Smith could not help but frown when she looked up and saw the fishbone was stained with blood.
She asked, âHow did it get so deep? Will it cause any effect on him?
The doctor turned to Louis, âThis fishbone was stuck in the back wall of your pharyngeal cavity.
Although itâs not a big deal, it will inevitably cause pain if it cuts the mucous membrane of the wound.
Under normal circumstances, it will gradually ease. If you donât feel relieved, I can prescribe you some
medicine to help relieve your discomfort.â
âThank you, doctor, Mrs. Smith said.
After packing up and returning to the Smith family, Mrs. Smith saw that Louis was still absent-minded.
She could not help but ask, âLouis, whatâs wrong with you?â
Louis was already so absent-minded when they were discussing the engagement in the private room.
Now, he still looked like he was on the verge of death.
âMom, do you think I did something wrong?â Louis mumbled.
Mrs. Smith frowned slightly. âWhat did you do wrong? What did you do?â
