Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David) novel Chapter 36

Betrayal At The Altar By Dolores Delia Chapter 36

Amid the chaotic pleas of the top executives and directors, Louis gritted his teeth secretly and finally spoke in a softened tone. “Rachel, I never meant to force you out of the company,” he said. “And I certainly didn’t intend to pick on you…”

“Do you think I care about your thoughts at this point?” Rachel interrupted coldly. Her gaze toward Louis was now only filled with cold indifference. “I came here today to resign from my position.”

If it weren’t for her resignation, she would not have even bothered to come to the company that day, let alone waste time talking to the people present.

After speaking, she turned around and made her way out of the conference room.

Sitting on the chair, Louis saw Rachel’s resolute figure. The suppressed anger in his heart was completely ignited.

He stood up abruptly. His face was dark and grim. He shouted in a cold voice, “Rachel, I don’t agree with your resignation! Do you think the Smith Group is a place where you can behave as atrociously as you please? You can’t just come and go as you please!”

Rachel looked at the infuriated Louis expressionlessly. A sarcastic smile then curled up at the corner of her mouth. “Do you think the Smith Group alone can trap me?” she asked. “You want to claim the moral high ground and dictate what I should do, huh? Don’t forget how the Smith Group got to where it is today.”

“I…” Louis was momentarily speechless, especially when he met Rachel’s icy gaze. His heart felt like it was being squeezed by something, and at strong sense of suffocation made him forget to breathe momentarily.

In the past, whenever Rachel faced him, she always had a look of tender affection. She had never shown such a cold and distant expression.

“So does this mean she really doesn’t care anymore?” Louis thought.

“Miss Grey, you’ve been managing all the affairs, big and small, in the Smith Group for many years. If you suddenly resign, how on earth could the other people in the company cope?”

“The Green family’s withdrawal of capital may be a big or small matter,

but why would the board of directors hold it against you over such a trivial matter?”

“Miss Grey, please think twice before you make a decision. The success of the Smith Group today is all thanks to your hard work. If you just leave like this, wouldn’t all the efforts you put in over the years be wasted?”

However, it seemed that Rachel did not even hear what they said. She pushed open the door of the conference room and left without looking back.

“There’s nothing for us to talk about,” Rachel said. She firmly refused his request, speaking in a professional tone. She continued coldly, “Take a good look. I don’t want any of these things anymore, so please don’t use them as an excuse to approach me in the future.”
