Reading his reply, Rachel was almost certain that this bouquet of roses had nothing to do with David.
If it wasn’t from him, who could it be?
She noticed that there was a card in the shape of a heart on the bouquet. On it was a simple sentenceof love: “The most beautiful flowers for the most beautiful you.”
It was so cheesy that it gave Rachel goosebumps!
Rachel could not help but feel a chill down her spine. She threw the card down with a look of disdain.and threw the flowers into the trash can.
At this moment, Linda knocked on her office door again.
“Come in!”
”
The office door was pushed open, and a large bouquet of white roses came into her eyes.
“Ms. Grey, the front desk just received another bouquet of roses.” Linda gestured to the behind her tocarry the 999 roses to Rachel’s desk.
Rachel frowned imperceptibly. “Who sent this?”
Linda shook her head.
There was no contact information or card on this bouquet of flowers.
She thought for a moment. “Could it be Mr. Jones?”
“No,” Rachel replied sternly.
person
Coincidentally, Lucas walked in with a large bouquet of roses in his arm. “Mr. Jones and you are funnyenough. The two of you are together every day. Why does he even send you roses anonymously?”
Rachel Grey was speechless.
Linda didn’t dare to respond.
“What the fuck?!” Lucas could not help but exclaim when he saw the roses in her office. “What day is ittoday?”
“So where did you get this bouquet?” Rachel asked.
Lucas glanced at the 99 roses in his hand. “I happened to bump into the florist, so I brought them up foryou.”
Rachel sighed helplessly. “Throw it away.”
“Then why didn’t you say so earlier?” Lucas didn’t hesitate at all and threw the bouquet into the trashcan nearby “My arm was about to break.”
He couldn’t understand what was the point of giving a woman flowers.
They had short bloom phases and were heavy to carry.
Wasn’t it easier to give her land directly, so that she could plant whatever she wanted?
He lit a cigarette and sat on the sofa with his legs spread out. “This time, we destroyed the Cruisefamily. Should it be the Smith family’s turn next?”
“Any news from Marina Jones?”
“She’s staying at home. I don’t know what evil scheme she is cooking up.” Lucas flicked the cigarette-between his fingers and said unhurriedly, “Since she wants to control the Seaxas market, she won’t
give up easily. You’ve made her suffer a huge loss this time. She will make a comeback eventually.”
Rachel held her chin with one hand and slowly stirred the coffee in her cup. “Do you think I’m
afraid?”
“You’re the daughter of the Johnson family. Of course, you’re not afraid.” Lucas’s words were filled withconfidence and pride.
Rachel smiled, but the depths of her beautiful eyes flickered with a faint coldness. “She can dowhatever she wants in Seaxas, but she can never shake the Johnson family’s position!”
Her grandfather had devoted his life to building the Johnson family. It was also the harbor thatprotected her when she was young.
She would never allow anyone to shake the Johnson family’s position as the richest family in Seaxas!
While the two of them were talking, Linda knocked on the door again.
Behind her were two staff members carrying 999 white tulips.
Rachel was stunned speechless.
Linda explained. “This was also sent to the front desk anonymously.”
Throw it away,” Rachel said without hesitation.
As soon as she finished speaking, her phone buzzed. She had received a text from David.
[Did you receive it?]
Perhaps couples could indeed read each other’s minds, Rachel immediately reacted and called outhurriedly. “Wait!”
Linda stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Rachel.
“Bring the flowers over,” Rachel said.
Her tone was cold and calm as usual, but there was a hint of gentleness in her eyes.
Linda immediately understood and gestured for the staff to move the flowers over before leaving.
When Lucas saw Rachel smiling foolishly at the large bouquet of tulips, he could not help but show atrace of disdain in his eyes. “Look at how silly you look smiling. Rachel, can’t you be more reserved andladylike?”
“This is not that,” Rachel said with a serious expression.
It was not just because this bouquet was sent by David.
It was also because everyone was telling her that she was a rose. Only David was telling her withactions that she was a tulip to be cherished.
Seeing that she was immersed in happiness, a hint of contemplation flashed across Lucas’s eyes. Afterpondering for a moment, he asked casually, “When are you going?”
Rachel was slightly stunned. She looked up at Lucas instinctively and her eyes flickered slightly.“What?”
“Don’t try to hide it from me.” Lucas did not give Rachel any chance to play dumb. “When are youleaving for Aureliana?”
Rachel knew that she could not hide it anymore, so she might as well answer honestly. “In the next twodays.”
“Rachel, you’re really bold! You even dare to elope with some guy without telling your family?” Lucassnorted coldly and stubbed out the cigarette in his hand before throwing it into the ashtray.
“Please watch your words!” Rachel said, “I’m only going on vacation for two days. It’s not like I’m notcoming back.”
“I’m just afraid that you’ll never return!”
Rachel Grey was speechless.
“Did you tell your father?”
“If I did. would you still be sitting here?”
Hearing this, Rachel secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
“Seriously, Aureliana is no ordinary place.”
It was said that Aureliana was rich in minerals, so it was not an exaggeration to say that there was goldeverywhere.
The local population was less than one-tenth of the entire population of Crucsia, but each of them wasextremely wealthy.
In order to protect the interests of its residents, the local government imposed extremely strictrequirements on people entering and exiting Aureliana.
Only those invited by the government or the Four Families can enter.
It was because of this strict rule that Aureliana had been known for being mysterious all these years.
Seeing that Rachel did not speak, Lucas said seriously, “If you really want to go, stick by David at all
times.”
Without waiting for Rachel to speak, he chuckled. “I almost forgot. David is a sitting duck himself. Howmuch safer can you be by his side?”
“Is David really that untrustworthy in your eyes?” Rachel looked at Lucas with an eyebrow raised.“Besides. I’m not weak either.”
Lucas looked up at her and stared at her for a long time. “Fine. Remember to tell me when you’releaving.
“Alright.” Rachel looked at Lucas’s back as he left and suddenly thought of something. “If Grandpaasks, remember to cover for me.”
Lucas didn’t say anything. He just raised a hand and made an “OK”
Their minds were in sync after being siblings for all these years.
The two of them had been covering for each other all these
years.
gesture.
After leaving Rachel’s office, Lucas took out his phone from his pocket and sent a message to David.
[If Rae-Rac éven suffers the slightest injury, don’t blame me for being ruthless!]
After sending the message, he walked out of the elevator.
When he looked up, he happened to see Zion Summers. “What are you doing here?
