Chapter 597
Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
Chapter 597
However, just as Cindy took a step, Mary blocked her way in a flash.
Mary crossed her arms. She was half a head taller than Cindy in her high heels. Mary lowered her eyes
and looked at Cindy. âMiss Tory, donât be in a hurry to leave. Our matter isnât over yet.â
Cindy had caused such a huge commotion, but now she wanted to leave.
Mary wasnât going to make it easy for her.
âLetâs see. Who said that Rae-Rae was pretending to be the mysterious designer Queen?â Mary raised
her eyes and swept her calm gaze across everyoneâs faces. Maryâs voice was filled with coldness as
she said firmly. âListen up. Rachel is the designer of the Raimant Collection, and she is the mysterious
designer Queen that you all are talking about!â
This simple sentence was like a resounding slap to everyoneâs faces.
Everyoneâs faces turned red, and they could not say a word.
âWerenât you all talking and laughing just now? Why are you all mute now?â
The manâs deep and cold voice was filled with coldness. It was like a cold winter wind that pierced the
bones.
The moment the man spoke, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly turned cold and heavy, making
people feel like they were in an ice cave.
In an instant, everyone was silent like cicadas in winter. They secretly sized up the expression on
Rachelâs face.
Rachelâs face was expressionless, and her eyes were indifferent. Rachel casually moved the bracelet
on her wrist with her fingers.
Rachelâs nonchalant attitude made it seem as if this smokeless dispute had nothing to do with her.
âItâs reasonable to be jealous because sheâs beautiful, but is it so difficult to admit that sheâs
outstanding?â Zion had one hand in his pocket as he walked over step by step. âEarlier, all of you
wanted to drown this weak and innocent girl with your spit. Now, you donât even apologize. How can
you call yourselves noble? If word gets out, how can you maintain your dignity in the future?â
Everyone present was smart enough to hear the threat in Zionâs words.
To put it bluntly, they had to apologize obediently for what had happened today. Otherwise, the news
would be spread. No one knew what would happen by then.
Hearing this, everyone immediately panicked.
A potbellied middle-aged man in the crowd was the first to speak. âMiss Grey, Iâm sorry. It was my fault
just now. I wronged you for nothing. I apologize to you. Iâm sorry!â
Hearing this, the others began to apologize.
Rachelâs expression did not change. Instead, she looked up at Cindy, who was standing not far away.
âMiss Tory?â
Cindyâs back stiffened, but she didnât turn around. Cindy just clenched her fists tightly.
Cindy believed that other than being less good-looking than Rachel, she could easily crush Rachel in
other aspects.
Rachel was from a humble background. She was just lucky to be favored by Mr. Jones. When Rachel
was abandoned by Mr. Jones one day, Rachel would no longer have the right to be arrogant.
If Cindy lowered her head and apologized to Rachel today, she would be mocked ruthlessly by her
friends. Then, Cindy would be too ashamed to face anyone in the future.
Seeing that Cindy was indifferent, Cindyâs father, Thomas Tory, finally couldnât help but rush out of the
crowd. He grabbed Cindyâs face and slapped her hard.
This slap stunned Cindy.
Cindy buried her face in her hands and stared at her father in disbelief.
At this moment, Thomas couldnât care less about Cindyâs hurt and aggrieved expression. Thomas just
wanted Cindy to apologize as soon as possible. If Cindy really angered Mr. Jones, the weak Tory family
couldnât survive Mr. Jonesâs monstrous anger.
âWhat did I teach you when you were young? If you did something wrong, you have to apologize!
Apologize to Miss Grey now!â Thomas glared at Cindy angrily.
Seeing that Cindy was still stubborn. Thomas pulled Cindyâs arm and deliberately lowered his voice to
warn her, âYouâd better apologize now, or you have to leave the Tory family and be on your own!â
Cindy stared at her father with reddened eyes.
Cindy could not believe that her father would threaten to kick her out of the family just to force her to
apologize to Rachel.
How could Tomâs biological daughter be no match for Rachel?
âWhat are you waiting for? Hurry up and apologize!â Thomas urged Cindy anxiously, afraid that the Tory
family would suffer a calamity in the next second.
Cindy bit her lip, took a deep breath, and mumbled reluctantly, âIâm sorryâ¦â
âSay it again!â Thomas said sternly, âIf you want to apologize, you have to apologize properly. Whom
are you trying to show your unwillingness to?â
Cindy gritted her teeth. âMiss Grey, Iâm sorry!â
Rachel frowned slightly. âNow that our matter has been resolved, itâs time to settle the second matter.â
Hearing this, Cindy frowned slightly. Cindy looked at Rachelâs half-smiling expression and had an
ominous feeling.
âMiss Tory just hit my man without good reasons. Logically speaking, you should pay for the medical
fees and men tal damage. Are you using your card or cash?â
âRachel, donât go too far!â Cindy gritted her teeth and squeezed out a few words. Cindy clenched her
fists tightly. âEven if youâre designer Queen and youâre talented, so what? Youâre from a humble
background. What right do you have to shout in front of me?â
âIâm her right.â The manâs deep and cold voice sounded.
Cindy was stunned. She stared blankly at David, who was standing not far away. It was as if two
streams of tears would fall from Cindyâs aggrieved eyes at any moment.
âAlright, Iâll compensate. Thomas hurriedly went forward with a flattering smile on his face. He said
respectfully. âMiss Grey, Iâve spoiled this girl since she was young. Please donât hold it against her.
What should we do about this matter?â
Looking at Th*ma sâs flattering attitude, Rachel could not help but think of certain images.
Rachel frowned slightly, and a hint of impatience appeared in her eyes. âDarcy, Iâll leave the rest to
you.â
âYes,â said Darcy.
When Rachel turned to leave, David followed closely behind.
David stretched out his arm and naturally h**ked it around the womanâs slender waist.
âYouâre upset, David whispered.
It was a short sentence, but it carried absolute certainty.
Rachel looked at David from the corner of her eyes and pursed her lips slightly. âAm I?â
David raised his eyebrows but did not say anything.
David trusted his own judgment.
Sandalwood Hills.
David came out of the kitchen with a cup of hot milk. His cell phone rang in his pocket.
It was Jimmy.
David The Tory family is very tactful. Thereâs no need for Landon and me to do anything. Theyâve
already bought a check overnight and sent Cindy overseas. If nothing goes wrong, she probably wonât
be able to come back for the rest of her life.â
