Chapter 427
They saw Rachel standing at the door of the pantry. There was no warmth on her pretty face. Instead,
there was ayer of frost between her brows. It was as if even the air had turned into fine ice.
Everyone felt as though something was stuck in their throats. They could not get it out or swallow it.
The feeling of suffocation tortured them.
The gossipmongers looked at each other, their expressions ashen.
They thought, “Why doesn’t Ms. Grey make any sound when she walks?
“Did she hear everything we said just now?”
Just as the few of them were waiting for their death sentence, they were surprised to find that Rachel
did not seem to care at all. She retracted her gaze and walked away.
It was as if the quietughter just now had been an illusion.
“What do you think of what Ms. Grey just did?” a woman with a high ponytail asked.
“Who knows?”
Just as they thought that this matter would end there, the department manager criticized them on the
grounds that they had neglected their duties during work and maliciously spread rumors about others.
That would directly affect the oue of their probation period.

That was undoubtedly telling everyone in thepany that Linda was not someone they should
casually provoke.
Linda had just finished reading thepany’s internal news and silently turned off herputer.
At this moment, her phone suddenly rang.
A cold glint shed across her eyes when she saw who the caller was. She swiped her finger across
the screen and picked up the call. “Mr. Grey, have you thought it through?”
Hans had called Lindast night.
His attitude on the phone had been very clear. He had hoped that Linda would revoke the allegations
against Lily and had said that the Grey family, would satisfy all the conditions she had set.
Back then, Rachel had spent a great deal of effort to hide the true situation of the domestic S* assault
case, as had the Johnson family. Linda knew very well in her heart.
Linda originally thought that she could treat everything as if nothing had happened after her mother
came out of prison and they left Pollister.
However, Lily and Olivia destroyed everything.
How could Linda not hate him? How could she settle things peacefully with him?
However, even if she insisted on pursuing Lily for responsibility, all she would get was additional
compensation. That did not mean much to her.
Thus, she came up with a n.
It was a n to make Lily and Olivia fight each other.
Jessica’s haters had always been obsessed with the campus bullying incident in her high school time.
They believed that Jessica and Rachel had forced a girl to jump off the building. However, very few
people knew that the real culprit was Olivia.
This time, with the reporters making things difficult for them, they dug this matter up again. Incidentally,
this gave Linda a reasonable opportunity to expose the truth.
Hearing no response from the other side, Linda said without hurry, “I think that you’ve seen the Cruise
family’s attitude clearly enough through this storm. Why would she remove herself from this storm if
she really wanted to join forces with the Grey family?
“Since she doesn’t care about what happens to the Grey family, why should you continue to treat her
so benevolently? Moreover, the girl who was bullied to the point of death back then hasn’t been given a
fair and just exnation. It will be considered justice if you revealed the truth of what happened back
then. That is not a bad thing for the Grey family.”
On the other end of the line, Hans had been immersed in the business world for many years. How
could he be beguiled by Linda’s words?
He chuckled ambiguously. “But if I do that, the Grey family and the Cruise family will be like fire
and water, eternal enemies.”
