Chapter 406

Right now, Old Mr. Smith’s mind was filled with the news that Old Mr. Johnson had allowed Rachel tojoin the Chamber of Commerce.

From the way the two of them were talking, it did not seem like they had known each other for a shorttime.

The Johnson family was the richest in S*s, and Old Mr. Johnson had a granddaughter who had adifferent surname… Could it be Rachel?

Old Mr. Smith always felt that Rachel had something to do with the Johnson family.

He hoped that he was just overthinking…

Seeing that Louis had yet to get up and leave, he frowned slightly. “Is there anything else?”

“I’m still worried that Rachel would do something evil with the recording.” Louis said.

Old Mr. Smith’s eyes darkened. “You’re really getting worse! There are many ways to destroysomething in this world! Do you want me to teach you one by one?”

Hearing this, Louis instantly understood. “I understand, but…”

“What’s wrong now?” Old Mr. Smith’s eyes were filled with impatience.

Louis hesitated for half a second. “It’s about the Cruise family.”

Old Mr. Smith pondered. “The future of the Smith family is unpredictable now. Although it’s a little riskyto work with the Cruise family, it’s still an additional help. However, as for the marriage… we have to

consider it at length. Once the engagement is set, the Smith family and the Cruise family will be closelylinked.”

Louis did not say anything, but he knew what Old Mr. Smith was worried about.

“We can’t rely on Rachel anymore. Why don’t you calm down and think about what else the Cruisefamily is worth using?” Old Mr. Smith stood up and slowly walked into the house. “Only by making thebest use of it can you show your true ability.”

Louis was stunned as he stared blankly at Old Mr. Smith’s departing

figure.

After Rachel sent Old Mr. Johnson to the car, she went to Stellar Corporation alone.

The journey was smooth and unobstructed, which surprised Rachel.

She went to David’s office and sat on the sofa. “You knew I was coming?” There was a hint ofcondemnation in her tone.

Eddie, who was reporting his work, put down the document in his hand sensibly and silently left theoffice.

David stood up and walked toward Rachel.

He stretched out his arm and hooked it around Rachel’s waist. He lifted her up and held her in hisarms.

He looked at Rachel, his deep eyes filled with warmth. “What do you want to ask?”

Rachel looked at him from the corner of her eyes. She looked at his dark and deep eyes and clearedher throat. “How did our engagement come about?”

Why had she never heard anyone mention it before?

“Didn’t Old Mr. Johnson tell you?” David’s well-defined fingers played with her soft hand carefully.

Rachel shook her head. “Grandpa said that he didn’t know the details either.”

To Rachel, this engagement came out of nowhere and confused her.

Although her maternal grandfather did not say it, she could sense that her maternal grandfatherseemed to have expected this day.

David’s lips curled into a faint smile. His deep and magnetic voice was. neither warm nor hot. “You’ll bemine sooner or later. Why should you care about these things?”

“Of course I care.” Rachel looked at David with a serious expression. “As the person involved, I actuallydon’t know about my engagement. If I hadn’t accidentally bumped into you today, I’m afraid I wouldhave been kept in the dark for a long time.”

At this point, she suddenly thought of something. “You didn’t plan this from the beginning, did you?”

He knew her identity and deliberately approached her.

“Meeting you was an accident.”
