Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David) novel Chapter 428

Betrayal At The Altar

Chapter 428 

It had not been easy for him to build a connection with the Cruise family in Seaxas using the orphanage’s land. Why would he offend them without anything in return?

“Since you’ve chosen to protect the Cruise family, we can only sacrifice Miss Grey,” Linda said. She then hung up without giving the other party a chance to speak.

As she turned around, she suddenly realized that Rachel was standing behind her…

Her pupils dilated and her heart (skip ped a beat. “When did you-”

“What did he tell you?” Rachel asked.

Although she did not specify who “he” referred to, Linda knew who it was in her heart.

“The Grey family promised that as long as I withdraw the lawsuit and not pursue Lily for responsibility, he would give me a sum of money as compensation and an apartment.”

Rachel frowned imperceptibly when she heard this. A cold glint flashed in the depths of her almond-shaped eyes. “And you agreed?”

“No.” Linda smiled faintly. “I’m the right arm of the Johnson Corporation’s Ms. Grey after all. How can such little compensation catch my eye?”

Rachel revealed a smile when she heard this.

Linda continued, “It’s just a pity to watch Lily and Olivia fight.”

“It’s not a pity.” Rachel slowly walked toward the French window with one hand in her pocket. “With Lily’s personality, she won’t suffer this indignance for nothing. But before that, we need to help them start things off.”

An hour later, a topic suddenly trended on Twitter.

A middle-aged couple’s silent protest against Pollister High School, which had been going on for five years, was causing a heated discussion online.

The group of real “murderers” were still at large all these years, while the life of a seventeen-year-old was so abruptly cut short.

Olivia’s expression changed when she saw the post.

At this moment, Lisa called. A flustered voice entered Olivia’s ears through the phone. “Olivia, look at Twitter!”

“I saw it.” Olivia had a gloomy expression, and her eyes flickered with a sinister cold light.

“What’s going on? Wasn’t this matter left unsettled back then? Why is it suddenly being dug up again?” Lisa was panicking on the other end of the phone.

Back then, this matter was suppressed by the school and had no further development. The school had decided to pull out a problematic student, Jessica, as a scapegoat to give that family an explanation. Then, to avoid another storm, Olivia’s family finalized the procedures for her to go overseas.

Lisa thought that this matter would be over just like that. She did not expect it to be dug up again.
