Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
Chapter 601
âThen should we take the opportunity toâ¦â Albert looked up at Marina with a dark glint in his eyes.
Hearing this, Marina raised her eyes and looked at him. Marina stretched out her fingertips and lifted
Albertâs chin. Marina said unhurriedly. âThe water is not muddy enough now. When the water in the
pool is so muddy that you canât see it clearly, that will be a good opportunity to catch and kill fish.
Albert didnât say anything. He just followed the force of Marinaâs fingers and moved forward.
Seeing this, Marina smiled even more, but her eyes were still cold. Marinaâs sharp nails slowly slid
down Albertâs face as she said unhurriedly, âDo you know whatâs the most difficult and the most painful
thing in this world?â
Albert pondered for a moment but could not think of it
âBeing hurt by someone close.â Marina slowly retracted her hand and stood up to look at the
boundless. night sky outside the window. Marinaâs beautiful eyes flickered with a clear cold light. âIt was
most fatal to be hurt by someone he raised and trained, someone he considered to be the most
satisfying successor. I just donât know if that woman is worth the grandfather and grandson turning
against each other?â
âMaybe we can test it out.â Albert looked at the expression on Marinaâs face and said carefully, âThe
Tory family might hate Rachel now. Who knows if they will take revenge.â
The Tory family thought that everything would be fine after sacrificing Cindy, but they did not expect
David to be so merciless.
The businesses under the Tory familyâs name were severely damaged.
A cornered dog would jump over the wall. Who knew if the Tory family would hate Rachel and take
revenge on Rachel because of this?
âWhatâs the hurry?â Marina glanced at Albert and picked up a white rose in the vase. Marina sniffed it
and said slowly, âThere will always be people who canât control themselves.â
No matter who attacked, they only needed to sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor.
Marina was curious if David, who had a weakness, could still be as decisive as before!
Marina really hoped to see the scene of the grandfather and grandson turning against each other.
However, Marina did not know if Rachel was worth it.
With this in mind, Marina clenched her fists tightly. The beautiful white rose was ruined by Marina and
thrown to the ground.
The next morning.
Rachel arrived at the company as usual.
When the meeting ended, it was already an hour and a half later.
As Rachel flipped through the file in her hand, she headed for her office.
However, Rachel did not expect to see Old Mr. Johnson sitting on the sofa when she pushed the door
open.
âGrandpa?â Rachel exclaimed in surprise. Rachel turned to look at Linda beside her.
Linda shook her head slightly, indicating that she did not know about Old Mr. Johnsonâs arrival either.
A hint of contemplation flashed past Rachelâs eyes. âYou can leave first. No one is allowed to approach
the office without my permission.â
âYes, Ms. Grey,â Linda said.
After the office door closed, Rachel stood in front of Old Mr. Johnson. âWhy are you suddenly here?
You didnât even tell me.â
âYouâre getting more successful now, and you have a big shot backing you up. How would I dare to
trouble you to welcome me personally?â Old Mr. Johnson turned his head and refused to look at
Rachel.
As smart as Rachel was, she naturally sensed something from the old manâs words.
It seemed that the news about the Tory family had reached the old man.
Rachel was not in a hurry to explain. Instead, she got up and personally brewed a pot of coffee for the
old man. Rachel handed the coffee to Old Mr. Johnson.
However, the old man snorted arrogantly, and he had no intention of accepting it.
Rachel was not angry. She placed the coffee on the table and said unhurriedly. âNo matter how
arrogant 1 am, I canât compare to you, right?â
Hearing this, Old Mr. Johnson frowned imperceptibly!
Rachel continued, âI heard that Mrs. Jones asked to visit you early, but you kept rejecting her because
you claimed you were not feeling well. Isnât that you being arrogant?â
âYou heartless little brat, Iâm your biological grandfather. I am!â Old Mr. Johnson slammed the walking
stick in his hand against the ground. As if that wasnât enough, he raised the walking stick.
Mr. Chadwick saw the situation and rushed forward with a terrified expression. âMr. Johnson, please
donât!â
Looking at the old manâs angry expression, Rachel could not help but laugh. âMr. Chadwick, donât stop.
him. If he wants to hit me, let him.â
âMiss Grey!â Mr. Chadwick looked at Rachel helplessly.
Sometimes, Rachel was really like Sophia.
Rachel was clearly spoiled, but she still looked so self-righteous. It was really infuriating and lovable at
the same time.
âHow did I raise such a brat like you!â Old Mr. Johnson snorted angrily.
Rachel smiled and wrapped her arms around the old manâs arm. Rachelâs voice was not as cold as
usual, but it was filled with gentleness. âYou know that Iâm not targeting the Tory family just because the
Tory family made trouble at the banquet. Iâm just taking advantage of the situation to take revenge on
them. for colluding with outsiders to plot against the Johnson family a few days ago.
âThereâs a rumor that the Johnson familyâs position as the richest family will change. I donât believe that
such rumors will spread for no reason. These people below are covetous and want to take the
opportunity to take a share. Then Iâll make an example out of the Tory family. I will let the other families.
who made the most noise see the consequences of plotting against the Johnson family. So I can kill
their restless hearts.â
Anything that happened at the Chamber of Commerce of Seaxas had never leaked, big or small.
However, the appearance of Marina this year and the words Marina said at the dining table got out. It
was obvious who was behind all of this.
âEven if David didnât make a move last night, I wouldnât let the Tory family leave unscathed.â
Hearing this, there was no joy on Old Mr. Johnsonâs face. He looked at Rachel with unprecedented
seriousness. âThen should I praise you for your good plan?â
âGrandpa, you think that I was too ostentatious last night,â Rachel said.
At this point, Old Mr. Johnson did not hide anymore. With a serious expression, he said, âRae-Rae,
youâre not the same as David!â
Since what happened last night could reach Old Mr. Johnson, it could naturally reach the others.
David had such a special identity!
Rachel was with him so ostentatiously, and David was so blatantly helping Rachel vent her anger. This
was no different from roasting Rachel over a fire!
Rachelâs eyes flashed slightly as she slowly let go of Old Mr. Johnsonâs arm. âDo you think that his
actions
last night were too ruthless? However, you canât show mercy without hard force. You taught me this. I
donât think he did anything wrong. Moreover, if it were me, I wouldnât be merciful either.â
âYou know thatâs not what I meant.â A hint of impatience appeared between Oid Mr. Johnsonâs
eyebrows. He held Rachelâs hand and said earnestly, âRac-Rac, listen to my advice. Itâs not too late to
separate from him now.â
