Chapter 346
Rachel grabbed the edge of the table as fury surged through her. Her calm expression was replaced by one of cold anger. "William won't even let the dead rest in peace!"
William had even used the divorce agreement she left behind to trample her further. He wouldnโt even leave her a final shred of dignity.
If that was the case, then why should she spare him any mercy?
Across from her, Cecilia watched the shift in Rachelโs gaze. Her eyes were cold, and she gave off an intimidating aura. This was a completely different woman from the gentle, soft-spoken Rachel sheโd once known.
Cecilia felt a chill down her spine. She subconsciously pulled her coat tighter around her.
โRachel, youโre not thinking of going after them, are you? Maybe just let it go. Although Lewis Enterprise isnโt on the same level as LS Enterprise now, youโre just an ordinary person. You canโt go up against them alone.โ
Cecilia was worried. Rachel had finally escaped that painful marriage. Now she had no one backing her. If William and Samantha found out she was alive, who knew what theyโd try to do this time.
Rachel knew Cecilia was only concerned for her.
โDonโt worry. I know what Iโm doing,โ she said. โAnd I wonโt expose myself. But before that, I need your help with something.โ
Cecilia didnโt even hesitate. โAnything, just say it.โ
After listening to Rachelโs plan, Cecilia looked at her with something close to awe.
โRachel, donโt tell me you went off and did some secret training these past few years. This is brilliant. But Iโm telling you, this move is really going to stir up the Lewis family.โ
Rachel smiled. โIsnโt that what they deserve?โ
โYes! They absolutely deserve it. You have no idea how shocked I was when I saw all those stories online slandering you. I couldnโt believe it. How could two people who used to love each other turn into this?
โYou werenโt even around anymore, and he still had to twist the story just to protect himself. He slandered you so ruthlessly. I wanted so badly to speak up for you, but no one listened. My voice was too insignificant. If I could, I wouldโve silenced all those people!โ
Cecilia was shaking with anger just talking about it.
Rachel ended up comforting her instead. โItโs okay. Donโt worry. Iโm not the same pushover I used to be.โ
Cecilia paused then said, โI did hear that after you disappeared, Mr. Lewis didnโt do well. He drank a lot and was always out at parties. I think maybe he did feel guilty. I mean, if it werenโt for him, you wouldnโt have ended up in the hospital.
โAnd wasnโt there something about someone trying to harm you? What was that all about?โ
โThatโs a long story,โ Rachel said. โIโll explain later. For now, letโs just head home.โ
Cecilia didnโt push further. All that mattered was that Rachel was still alive.
Rachel stood at the cafe entrance and watched Cecilia leave. The warmth in her eyes slowly vanished and was replaced by a chilling calm.
โWilliam, this time, itโs your turn. Weโve got some unfinished business.โ
William and Samantha were still on their way home when Arsen suddenly called.
Chapter 340
โMr. Lewis, somethingโs wrong!โ
William frowned. Ever since Samantha told him she mightโve seen Rachel, he had felt unsettled, like something was stuck in his chest.
At Arsenโs frantic tone, William couldnโt help but snap, โWhat are you yelling for? What now?โ
โSomeone posted stuff online about you and Ms. Judd, and itโs gone viral, over ten million views already! Youโd better check it out!โ
