Chapter 849
Chapter 849
After Rachel hung up on Mary, she vaguely sensed something was amiss with her car.
At first, she thought that it was because she had not driven this car for too long that she had an illusion
for a moment.
It was until she reached the intersection and stepped on the brakes to slow down that she realized she
could not do so. It was then that she realized someone had tampered with her car.
It was most likely that the brake pedal had been tampered with.
The high-speed driving caused the car to shake abnormally, but it did not affect her control of it.
Her hands gripped the steering wheel tightly as she roughly guessed who the culprit was likely to be.
She nced at the rearview mirror and saw three ck Santanas behind her.
The drivers of the three cars seemed to have discussed beforehand as they kept forcing Rachel to
drive toward a certain section of the road.
Rachel’s brakes failed. To prevent her car from overturning, she could only be forced by those three
cars to drive to another section of the road.

Rachel looked at the road sign and frowned slightly.
She took out her phone and dialed David’s number. She did not know if the phone signal was blocked
or if she was really that unlucky, but she could not get through to David.
Resignedly, Rachel could only throw the phone on the front passenger seat and continue driving with
both hands on the steering wheel.
After driving for half an hour, she was finally brought to an unfinished building
Rachel looked at the crash barrier ced directly in front of her and smiled mockingly.
They had really put in a lot of effort.
The next second, Rachel’s car crashed into the sponge wall.
The Bentley Continental dove in headfirst. The front of the car caved in, and the sponge wall shattered
into pieces. In ant instant, smoke rose everywhere.
When the drivers of the three Santanas tailing Rachel’s car saw this scene, they stopped the cars but
did not move forward to check until Hans walked out of the unfinished building
This unfinished building was the Grey family’s property in Seaxas. Although it was said to be in
Seaxas, it was just on the
border of Seaxas.
Back then, Hans had spent arge sum of money to purchase this unfinished building because he
wanted to use this unfinished building as a stepping stone for the Grey family to develop in Seaxas.
However, no one expected that the higher authorities would change their policies after Hans bought
this unfinished building. First, the city’snd was redesigned, then administrative divisions were
reorganized. Eventually, this unfinished. building, which was originally considered to be within the
scope of Seaxas, was assigned to another division
Because of that, the value of this plot ofnd was greatly reduced, and Hans lost more than 10 million
dors for nothing.
The money used to buy thisnd came from a bank loan. Now that the Grey family was in a bad
situation and their business had plummeted, they were on the verge of copse. The only person who
could help Hans and the Grey family to tide over the difficulties was Rachel.
With the Johnson family’s prestige in Seaxas and Tom’s status in the political world, they could revive
even ten families like the Grey family effortlessly, not to mention just one Grey family.
At the thought of this, Hans looked at the white Bentley Continental, his eyes shing with shrewd
calction.
Hans kicked away the sponge in front of his feet and walked toward the car.
At this moment, the drivers of the three ck Santanas opened their car doors and hurriedly came out
of their cars.
Over the past few days, they had been looking for an opportunity to attack Rachel. However, they
realized that Rachel’s whereabouts were not fixed at all. Moreover, it was difficult to attack her on the
road. After thinking about it, they could onlye up with this n.
They broke the brakes of Rachel’s car and forced Rachel toe to this destination. Rachel was
trapped with no way of escape.
This was their territory. Once Rachel was here, she would have no way to escape.
Hans walked forward and knocked on the car window. “Rae-Rae,e down. Let’s have a good talk.”
Chapter 849
As soon as Hans finished talking, a nging sound came from the car door.
Hans was so frightened that he hurriedly dodged backward, afraid that Rachel would injure him.
Hans had just taken a step back when Rachel suddenly kicked the car door open.
The airbag on the steering wheel opened and wrapped around Rachel tightly so she was not injured.
Rachel stretched out her hand to straighten the creases on her clothes and got out of the car in her
high heels. She walked to Hans step by step.
Hans’s shrewd eyes sized up Rachel. “Rae-Rae, if you hadn’t forced me into a dead end, I wouldn’t
have resorted to this. I was really forced into a corner.”
Rachel raised her cold eyes and looked at Hans expressionlessly. “It seems like you haven’t learned
your lesson from the seizure and reformation of the Grey family’s business,”
Hans thought, “Seizure and reformation…
Hans’s expression suddenly changed.

During this period of time, the Grey family seemed to have been cursed. Misfortune had befallen them
time and time again. Hans had also suspected that it had something to do with the Johnson family and
Rachel, but he had no evidence. Now, what Rachel said confirmed his guess.
Hans thought, “This wretch!
“It turned out to be really her who was targeting the Grey family behind their backs!
“What sin had Imitted in my previous life to have met Sophia and her daughter? I should have
strangled Rachel to death when she was just born!
“She wouldn’t have been able to bite the hand that fed her!”
The more Hans thought about it, the angrier he became. His anger was fuelled. Finally, he could not
take it anymore and raised his hand to p Rachel’s face.
However, Rachel turned her body slightly, and Hans’s forceful p missed.
Suddenly missing his target, the forceful p led Hans to stagger a few steps forward.
Hans quickly grabbed the front of the car to prevent himself from falling to the ground.
“You!” Hans’s face was gloomy as he stared at Rachel with malicious eyes. “You wretch! All these
years, you’ve been living off the Grey family, yet you’ve targeted the Grey family time and time again. I
should have beaten you to death back then!” The corners of Rachel’s lips curled slightly, but her eyes
were terrifyingly cold. “It’s a pity that you missed this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity 18 years ago. I’m
afraid you won’t have this chance in the future.”
It was clearly Lily and her mother who had framed Rachel. To make Rachel lose her inheritance and
chase Rachel out of the house, Rose fell down the stairs and yet insisted that Rachel was the one who
pushed her down the stairs.
Anyone with a brain would know that a six-year-old child could not push an adult woman easily.
However, back then, Hans refused to listen to Rachel’s exnation at all. Even when Rachel was
beaten with a stick, she still said that she was innocent. As Rachel’s father, Hans refused to investigate
it and insisted on pinning all the me on Rachel.
After beating Rachel half to death, Hans asked the servants to strip off her clothes, leaving her dressed
in only a thin nightgown. Then, Hans threw Rachel into the snow and forced her to kneel. Hans did not
allow Rachel to eat or drink until she admitted her mistake.
If Grandpa and the others had not arrived timely, Rachel would have died in the snow 18 years ago.
Hans had ignored Rachel all these years, yet now he was calling himself her father.
Even 18 years ago, Hans had personally said that their father-daughter rtionship was severed and
that from then on, Rachel was no longer a member of the Grey family.
Yet, Hans now had the cheek to say that Rachel had lived off the Grey family all these years when
Rachel never had anything to do with the Grey family all these years.
Indeed, shameless people were invincible!
