    Chapter 469


    Tom looked at David and opened his mouth as if to speak.


    He wanted to say many things, but when confronting David face-to-face, he did not know where to


    begin.


    Within a short period, Tom’s expression changed drastically.


    After a long pause, he finally sorted out his thoughts and said slowly, “Mr. Jones, you should know that


    with your status and situation, you will be putting Rae-Rae’s life in danger if you insist on being with


    her. It’s as good as hurting her.”


    He spoke not only out of concern for Rachel, but his words also contained prejudice against David.


    The Johnson family always had misgivings about David and refused to acknowledge the marriage


    arrangement.


    When they found out that David was in Seaxas to break the engagement, both Tom and Arthur were


    secretly relieved.


    They did not expect David to get into a rtionship with Rachel behind their backs. The girl had now


    fallen head over heels in love with David.


    Despite all these, David himself was enough to cause unease to anyone. At the same time, he also


    made many enemies.


    Rachel would have to go back to Aureliana with him if they were in a rtionship.


    What was most worrying was that Rachel not only would not enjoy the close rtionship she yearned


    for but would be subject to a tumultuous time. Worse still, her life might be in danger.


    The Johnson family refused to watch Rachel step into a minefield and do nothing.


    Both men looked at each other intently. Tom viewed David with distrust and prejudice, while David had


    a prating gaze that made it impossible to guess what he was thinking.


    The room fell into a strange silence.


    Then, David spoke in a low and cold voice. “No one can touch her with me around.”


    His tone was calm, but the tone was firm and forceful.


    Taken aback, Tom’s pupils dted as he continued to stare at David.


    Normally, he would disregard such ament andugh it off.


    However, David was different.


    He was a decisive and unyielding man. who did not even care about his uncles.

    He got to where he was using cold and brutal ways. It was natural for him to reign supreme among


    men.


    However, people like him would not make a promise so easily. Since he said that, he would keep his


    word.


    With him around, no one would dare to touch Rachel…


    It was a straightforward sentence, but he was making a gamble with him life.


    Tom gripped the cup tightly in his hands, not knowing what to think of David’s promise.


    After pondering for a long time, Tom spoke again, “Are you determined to marry Rae-Rae? Are you


    sure you won’t regret this no matter what happens?”


    It was a simple question, but it carried much weight.


    Hearing this, David raised his eyes and looked at Tom. His thin lips moved slightly, and his tone was


    firm. “No one in this world can make me do anything.”


    His deep and mellow voice did not contain any emotion yet Tom could sense his arrogance and


    comcency.


    Tom’s heart sk*pped a beat.


    He suddenly understood why David got to where he was today. His name struck fear in anyone’s heart.


    Regardless of hismanding presence or his imposing aura, anyone would feel intimidated.


    Suddenly, Tom spoke again. “I hope you can keep your word.”


    Meanwhile, Rachel was ying chess with Arthur, but her heart was far away.


    “Rae-Rae, you’ve lost again.” Arthur yed with the watch in his hand leisurely. He looked at Rachel


    with a meaningful smile.


    Rachel was taken aback for a moment. She subconsciously looked at the chessboard. As expected,


    her chess pieces were not organized at all. She was not focusing on the game at all.
