Chapter 622
Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
Chapter 622
âMiss Yule, you just said that I was full of lies and slander. You even wanted to sue me. Why have you
been silent now?â Rachelâs tone was light, slow, and indifferent, making people shudder.
Winnieâs eyelashes trembled and her eyes were filled with panic. Winnie opened her (m o u t h) but
could not make a sound. Winnieâs voice was so dry that it sounded like a traveler who had been
walking in the desert for three days.
Rachel raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Winnie with a faint smile, but her eyes were
terrifyingly cold.
Winnie knew that she could not avoid it, but she really could not apologize to Rachel in front of so many
people.
Winnie was the champion of the fashion competition and had received
professional training. Even if Rachel was talented, she had never learned design. What right did Rachel
have to accept Winnieâs apology?
âWinnie, youâve really embarrassed me!â A deep scolding voice suddenly sounded.
Hearing the familiar voice, Winnie trembled. The colors drained from her face, leaving her pale.
Winnie raised her head stiffly and saw the man walking toward her. She could help but widen her eyes,
her pupils trembling violently. âMr. Douglasâ¦â
Without waiting for Winnie to finish, Harvey Douglas shouted angrily, â(S h u t) up. donât have a
shameless apprentice like you! Youâve really embarrassed me! Back then, I took you in as my
apprentice and taught you everything without reservation. Is this how you repay me?â
âNo, Mr. Douglas, I was wrong. I really know my mistake.â Winnie was completely flustered.
If Winnie was abandoned by Harvey, she would be notorious completely in the industry in the future.
Winnie wanted to go forward and grab Harveyâs hand, but her legs went soft and she fell to the ground
in a sorry state. Winnie crawled to Harveyâs feet and grabbed Harveyâs pants tightly. âMr. Douglas, I
know my mistake. Please donât abandon me. What should I do if even you donât want meâ¦â
Harvey was the vice president of the garment association. Back then, Harvey felt that Winnie had some
talent and made an exception to take Winnie in as an apprentice. Harvey hadnât expected that Winnie
would cause such a huge scandal today. Not only did Winnieâs reputation be ruined, but Harvey was
also implicated.
Harvey was really unlucky to have such an apprentice.
Harvey lowered his eyes and looked at Winnie, who was kneeling on the ground. There was no worry
on Harveyâs gloomy face. âYou should know that the design industry has always supported original
works and boycotted plagiarism. However, you knew that you couldnât do it, but you insisted on doing it.
Now, itâs even turned into this situation. You brought this on yourself!â
Originally, when Harvey saw the competition draft design handed in by Winnie this time, he was
extremely gratified. Harvey thought that Winnie had finally made a huge breakthrough. Harvey never
expected that Winnie had obtained it through plagiarism.
Harvey took a deep breath and walked to Rachel with an apologetic look. âItâs my fault for not teaching
Winnie well. Todayâs trouble was caused by this disappointing apprentice of mine. However, as her
teacher, Iâm also in the wrong. Itâs my fault for neglecting Winnie. I apologize to you solemnly. Iâm sorry.â
Rachelâs expression was indifferent as if she did not hear Harvey.
Seeing Rachelâs indifferent expression, Harvey felt uneasy.
Suddenly, Harvey saw Winnie kneeling at his feet. He kicked Winnie angrily. â(B a s t a r d), hurry up
and apologize to Miss Grey!â
Winnie was stunned for a moment. She bit her lip and said in fear, âMiss Grey, I was wrong. Iâm sorry. I
shouldnât have stolen your draft design. Please forgive m Iâm sorry!â
The moment Winnie saw Harvey appear, all her pride and self-esteem disintegrated. Winnie naturally
agreed to apologize.
Rachel looked down at Winnie and said casually, âRemember to make a statement to clarify.â
Everyone secretly heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Rachel leave.
However, before they could let this sigh of relief, Rachel stopped in her tracks, turned around, and
slowly raised her eyes to look at them.
A casual gaze was filled with huge pressure. It was as if an invisible hand was grabbing their necks,
making everyoneâs breathing stagnate.
Suddenly, a bright smile appeared on Rachelâs red lips. âI remember that someone said that he would
drink all the water in the fountain. Donât forget about that.â
Upon hearing her words, a relative of the Smith family silently lowered his head and raised his hand to
slap himself.
Previously, they had mocked Rachel because they thought that Rachel must not be Queen of the
Raimant Collection.
However, they never expected things to turn out like this.
In their eyes, Rachel was just a poor woman who came from the countryside. Not
only did Rachel have no money or power, but she had also not seen the elephant It Louis had not
kindly taken Rachel in all these years, Rachel would not have been able to settle down in Seaxas.
Even if Rachel was smart, her background was not worthy of Louis, and she would not bring any
benefits to the Smith family.
Back then, they kept inciting Louis and Rachel to break up because they were worried that Rachel
would become a burden to the Smith family.
However, now, Rachel was living a smooth life. Not only was she Glamour Pavilionâs boss, but she was
also Queen from Raimant Collection. If they had known that Rachel had such an identity, they would
not have let Rachel leave the Smith family so easily.
Rachelâs indifferent gaze swept across everyoneâs faces and finally landed on Olivia and Louis. âMiss
Cruise, Mr. Smith, your feelings are sincere. I sincerely wish you two love each other forever. I hereby
offer a small gift. I believe you will especially like it, Miss Cruise.â
When Olivia heard this, her eyelids twitched as a bad feeling arose in her heart.
After Rachel and the others left, they first went to greet Yulia before leaving the hotel.
As Jane watched Rachel and David leave, she finally could not take it anymore. Jane took out a knife
from somewhere and stabbed it straight at Rachel. âRache! you (b i t c h)! Iâm going to (k i l l) you!â
Seeing this, Mrs. Smith was shocked and hurriedly called for the surrounding people to stop Jane.
Jane was suppressed by a group of people and forcefully (s n a t c h e d) away the dagger
in her hand.
âLet go of me!â Jane roared indignantly.
Slap!
Mrs. Smith slapped Janeâs face hard. Mrs. Smith looked at Jane coldly. âYou really disappoint me!â
Mrs. Smith took a deep breath and ordered expressionlessly, âSend her back to the Smith family. Sheâs
not allowed to step out of the bedroom without my permission!â
(âM o m!)â Jane, who was dragged away, shouted hysterically, âIâm your daughter. You canât leave me
alone! Others donât know how painful it is for me to live, but you know best! Momâ¦â
The shrill screams made Mrs. Smithâs heart tremble.
Mrs. Smith trembled uncontrollably and clenched her fists tightly.
But at this critical juncture, countless people were waiting to see Mrs. Smith make a (f o o l) of herself.
Mrs. Smith suppressed the sadness and heartache in her heart and pretended to be calm as she
looked at the priest. âThe engagement ceremony will continue!â The priest was stunned for a moment.
Then, he reacted and used his super strong ability to control the situation to get the engagement
ceremony back on track.
âLetâs give them the best blessings and the warmest applause.â
As soon as the priest finished speaking, there was a round of enthusiastic applause from the guests.
Suddenly, there was a cry of surprise from below the stage, followed by an intense discussion.
