Chapter 640
Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia
Betrayal At The Altar Chapter 640 Everyone in the conference room subconsciously turned to look at the door.
The door opened and Marina walked in.
Behind her stood Albert and Olivia.
âI didnât expect there to be so many people.â Marinaâs soft voice sounded.
She glanced at David and pretended to be surprised. âDavid, youâre here too. What exactly has happened? You actually left your house. If word gets out, who knows how much gossip will spread?â
Davidâs expression was indifferent and distant. He retorted, âIs it worth it for you to personally take action over such a small matter?â
âNaturally, anything related to Miss Grey is not a small matter.â Marina lowered her eyes to hide the coldness in her eyes. She sat on the sofa beside David and said unhurriedly, âMiss Grey is the person Old Mrs. Jones likes. Old Mrs. Jones even gave the ancestral precious jade bracelet to Miss Grey. It can be seen that Old Mrs. Jones treats Miss Grey as one of us. How can I sit back and do nothing when something happens to Miss Grey?â
Hearing this. Rachel slowly raised her eyes and stared at Marina with gloomy eyes.
Marina was quite capable.
She even knew such a thing clearly.
Sensing Rachelâs gaze, Marina looked at her with a smile. âMiss Grey, do you have something to say to me?â
Rachel smiled and said meaningfully, âAuntie Marina, Ijust feel that although you look like an ordinary person, youâre actually very impressive. You actually know such a private matter.â
The smile on Marinaâs face froze when she heard this. She subconsciously glanced at David.
Seeing that David was expressionless, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
She turned to look at Rachel, and a trace of imperceptible coldness flashed across her eyes.
Rachel, this (bit ch ) actually dared to trick her.
âMiss Grey, only you can get Old Mrs. Jonesâs favor. Naturally, I have to pay more attention to you.â
Rachel did not say anything, but there was a meaningful smile on her lips.
Seeing this, Marina stopped talking nonsense with Rachel and turned to look at Alfredo. âI heard that Miss Grey maliciously hurt some people and seriously injured them. I think she didnât do it on purpose. Why donât we do this? Iâll interfere and weâll settle this matter privately. Miss Grey will compensate those people with a certain amount of medical and psychological compensation.
What do you think, Mr. George?â
Alfredo was about to speak when there was a commotion at the door.
Just as everyone was confused, they saw a group of people rush in.
âSir, you have to help us!â
âMy son was seriously injured and is lying in the hospital. No one cares about him. You have to arrest the murderer and bring her to justice!â
For a moment, all kinds of cries and wails filled the quiet and solemn conference room.
Alfredoâs head was about to explode from the noise. He was at a loss as he looked at the scene in front of him. He then glanced at Marina from the corner of his eye.
The two of them looked at each other meaningfully and immediately understood why this group of people would appear at this juncture.
He rolled his eyes, cleared his throat, and put on an impartial expression. âWeâre investigating this matter.
Weâll definitely give everyone a fair and just explanation.
At this moment, Marina said, âMiss Grey, I think itâs better to resolve this matter privately. If this matter blows up, it wonât be good for you. Am I right?â
Hearing this, David narrowed his eyes and looked at Marina with a sharp look in his eyes.
As expected, when the group of people who had just been appeased heard Marinaâs words, they instantly targeted Rachel.
Alright, so youâre the one who injured my son!â An old woman with white hair glared fiercely at Rachel. She wanted to rush up and bite Rachel, but she was stopped by Don.
Her eyes were red as she roared in pain. âYouâre really ruthless. You actually hit my son so hard. If anything happens to my son, Iâll make you pay with your life!â
âThey didnât know what was good for them. What does it have to do with me?â Rachel said.
Hearing that, the woman was furious. She grabbed Donâs clothes and said, âSir, did you hear what she said? She clearly hit my son, but she doesnât repent. This kind of woman should be dragged out and shot!â
Don looked helpless.
How could Rachel say such things directly?
This was no different from adding fuel to the fire!
Amidst the chaos, Alfredo slapped the table. âEveryone, be quiet!â
As he spoke, the noisy people were silent for a moment.
âWe always handle things according to the law. Now, there are two options in front of you. One is to settle the matter in court. We will pursue Rachelâs criminal responsibility according to the law,â Alfredo said. âThe other is to settle it out of court. As for how and how much to compensate, youâll have to discuss this in private...â
Before he could finish his sentence, the white-haired old woman spat. âHow can there be such a good thing in this world?â
Alfredo couldnât help but take a few steps back because of her vulgar behavior.
The white-haired old woman said again, âMy son is seriously injured and unconscious, but do you want. to give us money and send us away? Let me tell you. That wonât do! Not only are we going to sue her and pursue her criminal responsibility, but we also want her to compensate us for all the medical expenses and (men tal ) damage!â
Hearing this, the surrounding people agreed.
âThatâs right. Our entire family is counting on my man to earn money. Now that heâs been seriously injured, how can our family survive?â
âMy brother has a seventy-year-old mother to support and a six-year-old son to take care of. But his arm is broken. How can he take responsibility in the future?â
Everyone spoke one after another. They all scolded Rachel harshly.
Marina and Olivia watched expressionlessly, but they couldnât help but sneer in their hearts.
This time, Rachel was dead meat!
These people would not let her off easily.
As long as they insisted on holding Rachel accountable, Rachel would have to bear criminal. responsibility, Once Rachel was imprisoned, they had plenty of ways to make her die!
After some time, Rachel slowly said, âEvery injustice has its perpetrator. Iâm afraid youâve asked the wrong person for compensation.â
âWhat do you mean?â The white-haired old woman stared at Rachel with a cold expression. âYou were the one who admitted to hitting someone just now. We all heard it with our own ears. Are you going back on your word now?â
Rachel didnât say anything. She just glanced at the clock on the wall.
Seeing that she did not speak, Olivia could not hold it in anymore. âRachel, the evidence is right in front of you. Itâs not something you can deny.â
Rachel smiled. âWhatâs the rush?â
Seeing the smile on her lips, Olivia could not help but frown. She felt that Rachelâs smile was indescribably dangerous.
