Chapter 6


    Everyone in the Johnson family was against Rachel’s rtionship with Louis Smith after they learned


    that she had fallen for someone who wasn’t in the same social status. Rachel, being the stubborn mule


    of the family, estranged herself from her family, hid her status as the grandchild of the Johnson family,


    and joined the Smith family in toiling in the name of


    love


    Angered by her choice, Old Mr. Johnson cut all financial support as the ultimatum to force Rachel to


    return to the family.


    Hence, he lost Rachel for three whole years.


    Everyone in the Johnson family had waited for Rachel to change her mind for three years. Little did


    they know, they received the news of Louis ditching Rachel.


    Rachel Grey was a descendant of the Johnson family and was entitled to the privilege of rejecting


    others, not the other way around.


    What a nerve Louis Smith had.


    Tom Johnson would not allow Louis Smith to escape unscathed after hurting Rachel. He would make


    sure this ungrateful man learned his lesson.


    “Haven’t youid out the n for me, Uncle Tom?” Rachel smiled. She nced at Tom, amused by his


    question.


    “My n for you is for you to return to the family. The old man is aging fast, and it is bing difficult


    for him to manage thepany. You know your Uncle Adrian and I are interested in something other


    than taking over the family business. So, we would be thankful if you could take over the family


    business.” Tom gazed at Rachel lovingly. “You can let me know if you have something else in your


    mind. You know I’m always on your side.”


    Tom’s simple words of assurance flooded Rachel’s heart.


    She recalled when she went against her family, who loved her unconditionally, for al heartbreaker. She


    had so wanted to give herself a good p for being such an ungrateful


    brat.


    She held back her tears with all her might. She choked gratitude for the family that never gave up on


    her. “Thank you, Uncle Tom!”


    “You’re the only niece I have. Who else would I side with other than you?” Tom gently patted her head,


    his eyes full of adoration for her. “Take care of yourself. I’lle to visit you again. tomorrow or the day


    after.”


    After Tom left, Rachel turned to the window. The sun shone brightly through the window, signaling that


    she should take a walk outside when the weather was good.

    Wearing a knitted sweater, Olivia Cruise watched Rachel from the hospital corridor, who was sitting


    alone under the tree.


    Although Rachel was wearing a typical hospital gown and sitting alone under the tree, her air of


    elegance stood out among themoners.


    There was a hint of innocence in her look, graceful yet pure. Her beauty was intriguing, one


    that others couldn’t help turning their heads for a second nce as she walked down the


    street.


    “I can’t believe we’re meeting again so soon.” The voiceing from behind caught Rachel off–guard,


    and she automatically turned toward the direction of the voice. Her expression immediately turned


    cial when she realized who was speaking.


    Olivia stared straight at Rachel as her lips lifted into a gloating smile, and it was a smile that screamed


    victory. “It has been so long, Rachel Grey.”


    “I can never seem to get away from you, Miss Cruise.” Rachel’s eyes gloomed. Her entire body was


    enveloped by hostility toward the woman standing before her.


    Olivia wasn’t bothered by her words. She continued, “I do feel sorry for you sometimes, Miss Grey.


    After all, you’ve wasted three years of youth on a man who never loves you back.”


    At this very moment, tears formed in her eyes and flowed freely down her face as she grabbed


    Rachel’s arm and started pleading. “Rachel, it’s all my fault, and I’m the one that did you wrong. Please


    forgive me, will you?”


    “Don’t touch me!” Rachel frowned as she flung Olivia’s grip away in disgust.


    She did not use much force when she flung Olivia’s arm away, but Olivia was thrown to the ground.


    Shocked by Olivia’s sudden change of behavior, she heard someone yelling from behind. before she


    regained her thoughts, “Rachel Grey, what are you doing?”


    Rachel suddenly realized what Olivia was trying to achieve and why she had suddenly turned into a


    different person.


    It was one of Olivia’s tricks, a show she put on. She would have wasted Olivia’s effort if she did not y


    along in a y Olivia had orchestrated.
