Chapter 799
Chapter 799
The person who came was called Corazon Waller. He was Miriam’s third uncle and a close friend of David in life and death together
Corazon was born in the military, so he had a dignified aura that made people afraid and not dare to be rash.
David ignored Corazon and urged the doctor, who was tending to his wound, “Hurry up”
The doctor did not even bother to wipe the cold sweat off his forehead. “It’ll be done soon.”
Corazon walked in and sat straight on the sofa. He crossed his legs and leisurely sized up David’s pale face. “Tsk, the dignified head of the Jones family actually has such a miserable day. How pitiful.”
When David heard this, his eyes darkened, and his aura was a little oppressive. “Do you like watching me in a sorry state so much?”
“That’s right” Corazon’s handsome eyes hid a gloating smile. “It’s rare to see you in such a sorry state in years. It’s too difficult to see you fail, especially when it’s a woman. Of course, I have to watch to my heart’s content. Unfortunately, I came Late and didn’t see the most exciting scene.
“But your girlfriend, no, I should call her your fiancée” Corazon corrected the way he addressed Rachel in time. His eyes flickered with a dark light. “Your fiancee is quite interesting. To be able to climb up the drainage pipe to the 26th floor without any protection, her courage is commendable.”
David did not take Corazon’s previous words to heart at all.
Until David heard the last sentence, which instantly attracted all his attention. “What did you say?”
Even Eddie and Billy, who were standing at the side, also looked shocked.
Rachel was really amazing.
This was the 26th floor
Even the two of them, who were men, could not help but feel their limbs go weak when they thought of climbing up with their bare hands. However, Rachel did it so easily.
Just as they were thinking about it, they suddenly felt a sharp gaze sweeping over like a knife.
The two of them froze and lowered their heads guiltily.
“What’s going on?” David’s cold questioning voice sounded above their heads.
Billy stammered as he explained, “When we rushed in, Miss Grey had already started fighting Tony. I don’t know the details.” C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Tony, who had been standing behind, was betrayed at once and caught off guard.
Tony had always been in charge of the black market’s business. He had only heard of Rachel’s famous name, but he had never seen her in person.
If Tony had known that the woman climbing the window tonight was Rachel, he would not have done anything
It had to say that the legendary Rachel did not look like a young lady from a wealthy family at all. She was simply
omnipotent What was she thinking when she climbed up to the 26th floor with her bare hands?
Just this boldness alone made Tony feel inferior. It was no wonder that David was captivated.
When Corazon saw that David was about to denounce them, the gloating smile on his face became more and more obvious. “Oh, so you don’t know? The young lady climbed up from the flat ground with her bare hands. It’s raining outside and she
almost fell down a few times. It can be seen that she’s sincere to you.
“To be fair, it’s not easy for the young lady. She’s been kept in the dark by you and has to endure your reserved personality. Such a young lady is rare.”
Hearing this. Vulture, who was sitting on the sofa and smoking silently, raised his chin proudly.
Of course, Twelve had always been the best.
David’s mind was filled with thoughts of Rachel climbing from the flat ground to the 26th floor with her bare hands. David did not dare to imagine what would happen if Rachel was careless without any protection.
At this moment, David was not angry at Rachel. Instead, he was angry at himself.
Rachel had come all the way from Titia to look for David, but David had angered her away just like that. What a bastard.
Looking at David’s silent expression, Corazon sneered. “I don’t know what you’re thinking It could have been explained in one sentence, but you chose to hide it”
At this moment, Vulture, who had been silent all this while, couldn’t help but add. “That’s i right. If you told her that you were beating them at their own game, she wouldn’t have to worry about you and come all the way back
12:07
The thought of Rachel climbing up the drainage pipe to the 26th floor made Vulture’s heart feel like it had been thrown into a pot of oil to cook.
This was the 26th floor.
It was simply unreasonable to do such a risky thing for a bastard man.
Twelve had always been rational. Ever since she met David, she had become a reckless person.
“Mr. Jones, I have checked.” Billy came back from outside and walked to David’s side. He respectfully said, “Miss Grey came back in the helicopter of Skysgate Group.”
When Corazon heard it, a hint of interest flashed across his eyes. “Ik, the lady looks young, but she has a lot of connections. She can even order people from Skysgate Group around.”
When Vulture heard this, he did not say anything and let the white smoke that he slowly exhaled cover his unfathomable expression.
After the doctor bandaged it, David leaned against the head of the bed and lowered his eyes. “She is my woman after all.”
“Chase her back first.” Corazon did not hide his intention to watch David’s embarrassment.
David frowned slightly and looked a little unhappy. “Why did you suddenly come to Seaxas?”
“Isn’t it all thanks to you?” Corazon snorted, his voice slightly cold and deep. “My niece, Miriam, was charmed by young master of the Johnson family and insisted on marrying him. I’m here to deal with the
marriage with the Johnson family.”
Although David had done it without anyone knowing, it was not untraceable.
Corazon was more or less unhappy that David had divulged the news of the Johnson family’s marriage to Miriam.
The mocking words Corazon had said previously were also meant to take revenge on David.
However, jokes and revenge had to stop before they went too far.
Corazon looked at David’s injuries. “There will be a reckoning between you and the Olson family sooner or later, If you need anything, just let me know.”
“No need,” David said calmly.
David raised his eyes and looked out of the window. The depths of his eyes flickered with a clear coldness.
Suddenly, David took out his phone and dialed a string of numbers.
When Christopher Clark received the call, he was punching the sandbag in the training room.
“Mr. Christopher, there’s a call for you.” Christopher’s trusted subordinate walked over and placed the phone in front of Christopher.
Christopher lowered his head and pulled open his boxing gloves with his teeth. Then, he picked up the phone.
At the same time, Christopher raised his chin and gestured for his subordinates to open the sandbag.
The next second, a man covered in blood and bruised all over fell out. “Take him down first.”
The trusted subordinate nodded slightly and called for the others to drag the man out.
Christopher turned around and walked to the resting area. He poured a glass of wine.
When Christopher heard David’s words, the corners of his mouth curled into an evil smile. “I’ve long heard from Corazon that you have a girlfriend. You’ve only known her for a few months before proposing. Hearing you say that, I’m even more curious about who she is.
“Not only did she avoid your men and snuck back to Seaxas, but she also had the people from Skysgate Group as cover. It can be seen that her ability is not ordinary.”
David said something on the other end of the line. Christopher pressed his tongue against his chin and scolded in a low voice, “I really owe you!”
After hanging up the phone, Christopher changed his clothes and set off for the airport..
