Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David) novel Chapter 836

Chapter 836 

Recalling what he had done back then, Hans was filled with regret. 

When he investigated initially, It was clear that there was no power influence behind Sophia’s back. How did she become Miss Grey of the Johnson family in Seaxas? 

Furthermore, when the Johnson family came to demand Rachel Grey, they arrived in a dilapidated car that looked like it came from a remote and rural area. No one would have associated them with the wealthy Johnson family in Seaxas! 

In regards to who is right and wrong, the Johnson family was at fault first. 

There were rich and powerful but pretended to be penniless as though they came from slums, causing him to be kept in the dark all these years! 

“You’ve been keeping me in the dark all these years. Hans looked bitter. “You can’t blame me for being heartless back then. That girl Rae-Rae was too ruthless. Who would have thought she would be so ruthless at such a young age? She pushed my wife down the stairs and caused her to suffer a miscarriage. If not for the timely arrival at the hospital, the consequences would have been unimaginable!” 

Lucas chuckled. His voice was as cold as ice, carrying a chilling coldness. “Hans, think about it. How could someone as young as Rae-Rae possibly have the strength to push an adult?” 

He believed that Rachel could never be a person with wicked intentions, and anyone with a brain would perceive the clues 

behind this incident. 

Only an idiot like Hans would believe the so-called “seeing is believing”! 

Seeing that Hans did not speak, Lucas’s black eyes narrowed and emitted a sharp cold light. “All these years, mind one’s own business. It’s good that everyone has been living in peace. However, if you dare to spout such nonsense and something bad happens, you will bear the consequences!” 

“No, I’m Rae-Rae’s father!” Upon hearing that Lucas wanted to draw the line, a hint of panic flashed across Hans’s eyes. He explained anxiously. “Even though I’ve cut off contact with Rae-Rac all these years, I’m still her biological father. What rights do you have to stop us from reuniting?” 

“Father-daughter reunion?!” Lucas’s thin lips parted slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled into a mocking smile. “Do you think you’re worthy of calling yourself Rae-Rae’s father? Back then, we asked you. You were the one who insisted on severing your father-daughter relationship with Rae-Rae. Now that you’ve discovered that Rae-Rae is useful, you want to go back on your word. There’s no such thing in this world!” 

As he spoke, he extinguished the cigarette with a flick of his fingertips and then flicked the remnants onto Hans’s face. A faint smirk had formed at the corner of his mouth, carrying a hint of wickedness. “Hans Grey, out of respect to my aunt, I haven’t destroyed the Grey family. If you fail to recognize your place, you only have yourself to blame.” 

With that, he turned around and left without looking back. 

Hans felt as if he had been electrocuted. He stood rooted to the ground in a daze. 

A few months ago, the Grey family seemed to be cursed as their business plummeted, bank loans were delayed, and they faced the need for production line adjustments, leaving them in great distress. 

He had thought that it was bad luck, but it turned out that Lucas was targeting him from behind! 

Hans stood on the spot with an ugly expression. 

“You, you…” Watching the departing figure of Lucas, Hans could no longer bear it. He gritted his teeth and said through clenched jaws, “The Johnson family has gone too far! Do you really think you can control everything in Seaxas?” 

Upon hearing those words, Lucas’s footsteps hesitated for a moment. He turned slightly, casting a faint glance at Hans. “Hans Grey, do you think with your intellect aloue, how did the Grey family manage to enter into the upper echelons of Pollister? Though the Grey family may not shine as brightly as my aunt did in her prime, they still hold a prominent position in Pollister’s high society. So, don’t let your emotions get the best of you and ruin your good days.” 

Under his calm tone, there was a coldness in his words that made people tremble in fear. 

These words were good advice and a blatant threat. 

Hans’s face alternated between red and white, but he was afraid to say another word. 

Looking at him standing rooted to the ground, Lucas did not have much patience left on his face. “Throw him out. Don’t dirty everyone’s eyes.” 

“Yes!” 

When Lucas returned to the banquet, it was still in progress. 

He sat next to Old Mr. Johnson. The grandfather and grandson pair exchanged glances. “Have you cleaned it up?” 

“It’s all settled.” Lucas said in a low voice. 

Old Mr. Johnson nodded slightly. His turbid eyes were cold and indifferent. He said unhurriedly. “It doesn’t matter if it dirties our eyes. Don’t dirty Rae-Rae’s eyes 

Tunderstand” 

Since they had not seen each other all these years, there was no reason for him to appear in front of Rachel in the future. 

The grandfather and grandson’s thoughts coincided. 

Lucas sat on the chair, but his gaze subconsciously searched for Rachel. 

At this moment, Miriam’s soft voice sounded in his ear. “Six o’clock.” 

Lucas subconsciously looked over and saw Rachel and David sitting in a corner from afar. 

Although it was at a corner, not everyone could sit there.
