Chapter 711
As time passed, it was mealtime in the blink of an eye.
Old Mr. Jones glanced at everyone indifferently. “It’s time for lunch. Please move to the dining room to eat.”
Old Mr. Jones stood up first, and the others followed suit.
In the dining room, the ser vants served the dishes in an orderly
manner.
It was just a simple lunch, and there was nothing special about it. But because of Rachel, the atmosphere was subtle and strange.
Especially when they saw David personally helping Rachel peel the prawns and help her pick the coriander in the soup, their shocked expression was no less than when they saw the top ten scenic spots in the world.
Not only were the heads of the other families dumbfounded, but even the people from the Jones family’s main and side branches were the same.
After all, David was personally trained by Old Mr. Jones.
Ever since David was little, he had been influenced by Old Mr. Jones and had long regarded love as a burden. Over the years, many people had tried their best to send women to David’s side, but David had never been moved.
This made everyone’s impression of David not getting close to women even more profound.
However, in the blink of an eye, they saw David treating Rachel so gently.
That doting and indulgent gaze was like a gentle vortex. Anyone who saw it would fall into it and be unable to extricate
themselves.

However, it was also through this lunch that everyone’s impression of Rachel changed greatly.
The people from the branches of the Jones family did not dare to show any disrespect.
After lunch, everyone returned to the lounge in twos and threes
to rest.
However, the moment the door closed, Rachel became
everyone’s topic of conversation after meals.
“Who do you think Rachel is to be able to convince Old Mr. Jones to personally bring her to the cabinet meeting?”
Old Mr. Jones was such a big figure.
In terms of cruelty, hypocrisy, and cu**ingness, no one in Aureliana would dare to claim to be number one if Old Mr. Jones claimed to be number two.
Such a person was too scheming. The hostility in his bones was too strong. Even someone of the Elders’s had to restrain their sharpness in front of Old Mr. Jones.
Old Mr. Jones used to be an influential figure in Aureliana. Anyone who heard about him would be shocked.
“She is just from a small family.” Marina, who was sitting on the sofa, sneered coldly. The depths of her beautiful eyes were filled with disdain and ridicule. “I think you guys have lost your minds. You’re actually frightened by a young lady!”
When they heard this, they looked at each other.
One of them was the first to speak. “Miss Grey, you’re the fifth daughter of the Jones family. Naturally, we can’t compare to you. However, the eight branches of the collateral family were
destroyed overnight. This is a blatant warning. We naturally have to be careful.”
Marina did not hide her sneer. “Wealth comes from danger. On

the contrary, I feel that the eight branches are a hundred times. better than everyone here!”
As Marina spoke, she put down the cup in her hand and stood up to leave.
After walking out of the room, Marina headed straight for the meditation hall.
Just as Marina walked into the courtyard, her phone suddenly rang.
Marina picked up the call. The person on the other end of the line said something. Marina expression changed and her voice suddenly rose. “What did you say? Say it again!”
The person on the other end of the line stammered for a long time before repeating what he had just said. “A review team came over this morning to investigate and found a loophole in our virtual currency. Currently, our trading platform has been locked down.”
