Chapter 168


    However, Old Mr. Johnson continued, “I only have one precious


    granddaughter. Of course, I have to choose carefully. I can’t be careless on this.”


    “That’s true,” Old Mr. Shain continued, “However, with Rae–Rae’s social status, I’m afraid it’s going to


    be very difficult to pick someone who’s worthy of her in Seaxas.”


    As their conversation went on, Rachel felt that something was amiss.


    As expected, in the next second, Rachel heard Old Mr. Johnson ask Old Mr. Shain, “I wonder if you


    know someone who would be a suitable candidate?”


    The two of them exchanged nces and quickly came to a consensus. “Now that you mention it, I do


    have one.” Old Mr. Shain said.


    Before Old Mr. Shain could finish speaking, his trusted aide hurriedly approached him and whispered


    something in his ears.


    Old Mr. Shain was always very good at masking his emotions. However, when Old Mr. Shain heard


    what his trusted aide had said, his face turned solemn as he asked, “Are you really sure of what you


    have seen?”


    The butler looked at Old Mr. Shain solemnly and replied. “I’m absolutely certain!”


    Old Mr. Shain stood up and smoothed the non–existent creases on his clothes. “Hurry and bring me to


    him! I’ll personally bring him in!” Old Mr. Shain said nervously.

    Just when Old Mr. Shain had just taken a step forward, footsteps could be hearding from the door.


    Everyone could not help but look in the direction of the footsteps.


    They saw a tall and upright figure entering the room steadily.


    The man was wearing a ck suit, which had been ironed meticulously. The well–tailored suit


    entuated his tall figure and the man exuded an innate aura of nobility. People could also feel an air


    of suppression that wasing from the man, which made them feel slightly intimidated. There was a


    hint of coldness in his exquisite eyes and his thin lips were slightly pursed. When they were staring into


    his dark and fathomless


    eyes, they could not read what he was thinking. However, one could feel that they were staring into a


    bottomless pit and could feel impending danger.


    The crystalmp outlined his distinct facial features,plementing the dangerous aura which could


    not be hidden.


    Without looking sideways, the man walked towards the crowd and caught sight of Rachel effortlessly.


    Although his gaze lingered on Rachel for only an instant, the corners of his lips curled up quietly,


    revealing a faint smile.


    The spacious room seemed narrow and cramped because of David’s arrival as the aura which he


    emitted seemed to fill up the entire room.


    Everyone looked at David in unison and discussed in low voices.


    “Who is this man?”


    “I’ve never seen him before. He probably has a powerful background. Didn’t you see that Old Mr. Shain


    had even stood up in order to wee him in person?”


    “Could he be the distinguished guest that Old Mr. Shain had mentioned?”


    It is well known that the existence of the Shain family in Seaxas is not as important and irreceable


    aspared to the Johnson family.


    The reason why the Shain family was able to be part of the top four most prestigious families in


    Seaxas, was mainly due to the Shain family’s support in the background.


    Some said that the Shain family who was backing the Shain family in Seaxas was actually the real


    aristocrats.


    Even Old Mr. Shain himself would pale inparison in front of the Shain family and would be


    considered to be someone who is not worth mentioning.


    At this moment, Old Mr. Shain had already stepped forward to wee the guest in person.


    After five years, the man in front of Old Mr. Shain seemed to be even calmer and more reserved than


    before. However, the indifferent and noble aura which surrounded him made Old Mr. Shain feel that it


    was hard to breathe.


    Even though Old Mr. Shain was many years older than David, Old Mr. Shain naturally disyed


    unprecedented respect and fear for David the moment when he saw David.


    Pursing his thin lips, David looked at Old Mr. Shain and said, “Old Mr. Shain, I apologize for showing up


    although I was not invited. I’m sorry for the intrusion.”


    David said steadily in a deep and cold voice, making one’s body tense up unknowingly.

    Feeling ttered, Old Mr. Shain immediately said, “Mr. Jones, you’re being too polite. It’s our greatest


    honor that you have came to visit.”


    Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Old Mr. Shain’s attitude towards David was a tad too


    polite.


    Although the Shain family’s social status in Seaxas was not as high as the Johnson family, with Old Mr.


    Shain’s current social status, he should not be as polite to David as he should have been.


    “Mr. Jones, please.” Old Mr. Shain personally led David in and invited David to take the head seat.
