Chapter 627

On the day of Olivia’s engagement, waves of commotion arose. From Winnie plagiarizing Rachel’sdraft design to Olivia’s scandal, everyone on the Internet knew about them. It was difficult for Hans notto know even if he didn’t want to.

The Cruise family’s reputation plummeted, and the Smith family was implicated.

Most importantly, the famous designer Winnie, who should have had a bright future, became notorious.

Not only was Winnie disqualified from this fashion competition, but even the garment associationremoved her from the list.

They did not leave Winnie a way out at all.

And this was only because Winnie had provoked Rachel.

It seemed that the precious daughter, Rachel, who had once been chased out of the Grey family byHans, had found a reliable backer. Otherwise, with Rachel’s ability, how could she cause such a hugecommotion online?

Hans lit a cigarette and took a deep drag. He shifted his weight back and slowly leaned against theback of the chair.

The designer of the Raimant Collection?

Hans did not know if this identity was worth anything.

However, Hans had long heard of Raimant Collection’s clothes.

Not only were they difficult to buy, but they were also priceless.

However, Rachel had never shown her talent in this aspect when she was little. How did Rachelsuddenly become a famous designer?

In the quiet study, Hans sat on a chair and smoked silently.

Perhaps it was time for Rachel to come back to the Grey family.

Early in the morning.

Rachel was woken up by the sudden ringtone of her phone.

Rachel reached out her hand and fumbled on the bedside table for a long time. Before Rachel couldreach for her phone, she was pulled back by David’s outstretched arm. “Sleep again.”

Rachel glanced at David and simply hung up the call to continue sleeping.

An hour later, Rachel and David sat at the table and ate breakfast.

At this moment, Rachel’s phone rang again.

When Rachel saw the caller ID, her charming eyes flickered with a clear coldness. Then, Rachel turnedher phone to silent mode and ignored it.

David saw Rachel’s small actions but did not ask further. “Are you going to the office later?”

“Yes.” Rachel sighed faintly and looked at David with regret and unhappiness. “After you leave, I canonly rely on work to fill the gap in my heart.”

David did not say anything. He just raised his eyebrows and looked at Rachel with a faint smile on hislips. “That doesn’t sound like something you can say.”

In David’s impression, Rachel had always been cold as ice as if nothing in this world could evoke thesoftness in her heart.

A blush flashed across Rachel’s fair face as she said indifferently, “I didn’t expect it either.”

Rachel’s tone was pretentious and resentful, making her like a pitiful woman who was not doted on byher husband. However, these things were like instinctive reactions, and there was no need for anydisguise. Rachel didn’t even think about it and just naturally blurted out.

Perhaps speaking something sweet was an attribute that every woman had, but the trigger conditionwas the men’s endless love and unreasonable favoritism.

David’s eyes were filled with a doting smile. “When I come back, how about going to Aureliana withme?”

When Rachel heard it, her chewing paused for a moment. “Then I’ll arrange my work in the nearfuture.”

“There’s no rush. Let me know when you’re ready,” said David.

Rachel nodded. “Okay.”

After eating, Rachel was sent by David to the office building of the Johnson Corporation.

“I’ll get going then” Rachel opened the car door.

Just as her fingertips touched the car door, David grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms. Davidheld the back of Rachel’s head with his palm and kissed her lips.

Eddie, who was sitting in the front row, didn’t expect it at all.

After the kiss, Rachel’s fair cheeks were slightly flushed, and there was a faint flirtatious look in hereyes.

His fingertips caressed Rachel’s slightly swollen lips as David carefully wiped away the smudgedlipstick mark. “Call me if you need anything.”

“Okay,” Rachel replied.

When Rachel was leaving, she suddenly turned around and leaned forward. Rachel kissed David’schin lightly, then opened the car door and left.

David watched Rachel leave and retracted his gaze. His well-defined face returned to its usualcoldness and indifference. “To the airport!”

“Yes!”

On the other side, after Rachel returned to the company, she held an internal meeting regarding theacquisition of the Cruise Group.

When it came to the acquisition, Lynn and Haley’s performance was exceptional.

Of course, this was not only a performance of good work, but more importantly, there were somepersonal grudges.

When the people present saw Lynn and Haley reporting the current situation of the Cruise Group indetail, they silently prayed for the Cruise Group in their hearts.

After the meeting, Rachel began other work intensively.

At noon, Mary walked into her office with her bag.

Mary threw her bag on the sofa and curled up lazily. Looking at Rachel, who was working hard, Marycould not help but ask, “Don’t tell me you’ve been busy until now after sending Mr. Jones away?”

“What else?” Rachel looked up at Mary.

Noticing Mary’s listless look, Mary frowned slightly. “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Mary sat on the sofa with a sad face. “It’s all because Jimmy suddenly left again. The two of us onlyspent a few hours together before he left again.”

Rachel rolled her eyes helplessly. “Mary, you have to control yourself. Don’t let relationships be yourwhole life.”

“Don’t you miss David at all?” Mary asked.

Seeing that David had yet to send a message, Rachel said without changing her expression, “No.”

Mary saw Rachel’s actions and snorted softly. “I think you do but you don’t want to admit it.”

At this moment, the unlisted phone number called again.

Looking at the endless calls, Rachel simply hung up and blocked the phone number.

“Who is it?” Mary asked. “It can’t be Louis, right?”

Rachel said, “Harassment calls.”

Rachel tidied up the things on the table and glanced at the time. “Shall we go to dinner together?”

“Okay.”

After the two of them ate, Rachel returned to the company.

“Rachel!” A familiar voice sounded from behind.

Rachel frowned imperceptibly. She turned around and saw Louis hurriedly getting out of the car.

Louis had waited here for Rachel hours with the men tality of giving it a try. He did not expect to reallymeet Rachel.

As soon as Louis approached, Rachel smelled the strong smell of smoke on him. There wasundisguised disgust in Rachel’s eyes. “Why are you here?”

Could Rachel’s identity have been exposed?

However, as soon as this thought surfaced, Rachel quickly dismissed it.

It was most likely because Rachel had exposed Olivia’s scandal and Louis was here to denounce her.
