Chapter 166

The Shain family was one of the four big families in the Seaxas. Old Mr. Shain and Old Mr. Johnsonwere best friends, so Rachel had to attend this wedding.

However, with the Shain family’s status, the news of the Shain family’s eldest daughter’s weddingwould attract a lot of attention.

However, Rachel did not see the news of Iris‘ wedding ceremony when she woke up.

Instead, the Cruise family was suspected of tax evasion, and the relevant departments wereintervening in the investigation.

Rachel sat at the dining table and watched Olivia’s father being taken away in public with an indifferentexpression.

She was not too surprised.

She had no intention of letting Olivia off.

“Take not a musket to kill a butterfly.” There was no need for the Johnson family to deal with Olivia.

However, she could just chill since the Johnson family had taken action.

Compared to Rachel’s calmness, Mary was super chatty.

“This is retribution!” Mary said, ” ‘Good deeds come back to you, and bad deeds come back to hauntyou. Does she think that the daughter of the Cruise family has great status? She’s just relying on herprevious connections to hold on, but she still has to replace a shortcut to court death! She’s suicidal!”

Rachel smiled. “I’m afraid she’s the first person who can make our Miss Green so angry that she’sgritting her teeth.”

Mary said without hesitation, “That’s true.”

Rachel noticed that Mary was looking around with a glass of wine in her hand as if she were looking forsomething. She could not help but ask, “What are you looking for?”

“I heard that the Shain family has a special guest. Otherwise, why do you think all the ladies in Seaxasare dressed so beautifully today?” Mary’s gaze landed on Rachel. She sized her up and could not helpbut tease,

“You’re dressed so low–key. Are you worried that you’ll become the target of public criticism, or are youkeeping your chastity for someone only?”

After hearing Mary’s words, an unnatural blush appeared on Rachel’s fair cheeks. “What nonsense areyou talking about?”

To think that she could say the word ‘keep her chastity“!

Mary’s eyes flashed with the light of gossip. “Others don’t understand you, but how can I notunderstand you? For a reserved person like you to be able to do such intimate actions in public, there’sa high chance that you’ve fallen for someone.”

“We just met by chance,” Rachel said lightly.

However, the subsequent development of the matter completely exceeded her expectations. Theprogress between the two of them had advanced by leaps and bounds after a short period together.

She had to admit that she had chosen to compromise with this menacing

man.

“You can fool others with your words, but don’t try to fool me!” Mary said firmly. She held Rachel’s handand said earnestly, “Rae–Rae, it’s good that you’re willing to interact with others. I’m just curious aboutwho the other party is. He made you open your heart and accept him in such a short period afterdumping Louis, that bastard.”

Louis saw Rachel from afar. After hesitating for a moment, he finally walked over.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked in, he heard Mary calling him. “bastard“.

After a moment of silence, he coughed softly. “Rachel.”

Mary turned around. The moment she saw Louis, there was no embarrassment or awkwardness on herface. Instead, she smiled calmly. “Hey, Mr. Smith, did you hear me badmouthing you?”

Without waiting for Louis to answer, Mary continued, “So be it. After all, I don’t know how to lie.”

The expression on Louis’s face was slightly gloomy, but in front of everyone, he would only appearungentlemanly if he argued with a

woman.

“Rachel, I have a few words to say to you in private.” He looked at

Rachel.
