As time passed, it was mealtime in the blink of an eye.
Old Mr. Jones glanced at everyone indifferently. “It’s time for lunch. Please move to the dining room to
eat.”
Old Mr. Jones stood up first, and the others followed suit.
In the dining room, the ser vants served the dishes in an orderly
manner.
It was just a simple lunch, and there was nothing special about it. But because of Rachel, the
atmosphere was subtle and strange.
Especially when they saw David personally helping Rachel peel the prawns and help her pick the
coriander in the soup, their shocked expression was no less than when they saw the top ten scenic
spots in the world.
Not only were the heads of the other families dumbfounded, but even the people from the Jones
family’s main and side branches were the same.
After all, David was personally trained by Old Mr. Jones.
Ever since David was little, he had been influenced by Old Mr. Jones and had long regarded love as a
burden. Over the years, many people had tried their best to send women to David’s side, but David had
never been moved.
This made everyone’s impression of David not getting close to women even more profound.
However, in the blink of an eye, they saw David treating Rachel so gently.
That doting and indulgent gaze was like a gentle vortex. Anyone who saw it would fall into it and be
unable to extricate
themselves.
Chapter 711
However, it was also through this lunch that everyone’s impression of Rachel changed greatly.
The people from the branches of the Jones family did not dare to show any disrespect.
After lunch, everyone returned to the lounge in twos and threes
to rest.
However, the moment the door closed, Rachel became
everyone’s topic of conversation after meals.
“Who do you think Rachel is to be able to convince Old Mr. Jones to personally bring her to the cabinet
meeting?”
Old Mr. Jones was such a big figure.
In terms of cruelty, hypocrisy, and cu**ingness, no one in Aureliana would dare to claim to be number
one if Old Mr. Jones claimed to be number two.
Such a person was too scheming. The hostility in his bones was too strong. Even someone of the
Elders’s had to restrain their sharpness in front of Old Mr. Jones.
Old Mr. Jones used to be an influential figure in Aureliana. Anyone who heard about him would be
shocked.
“She is just from a small family.” Marina, who was sitting on the sofa, sneered coldly. The depths of her
beautiful eyes were filled with disdain and ridicule. “I think you guys have lost your minds. You’re
actually frightened by a young lady!”
When they heard this, they looked at each other.
One of them was the first to speak. “Miss Grey, you’re the fifth daughter of the Jones family. Naturally,
we can’t compare to you. However, the eight branches of the collateral family were
destroyed overnight. This is a blatant warning. We naturally have to be careful.”
Marina did not hide her sneer. “Wealth comes from danger. On
Chapter 711
the contrary, I feel that the eight branches are a hundred times. better than everyone here!”
As Marina spoke, she put down the cup in her hand and stood up to leave.
After walking out of the room, Marina headed straight for the meditation hall.
Just as Marina walked into the courtyard, her phone suddenly rang.
Marina picked up the call. The person on the other end of the line said something. Marina expression
changed and her voice suddenly rose. “What did you say? Say it again!”
The person on the other end of the line stammered for a long time before repeating what he had just
said. “A review team came over this morning to investigate and found a loophole in our virtual currency.
Currently, our trading platform has been locked down.”
When Marina heard this, her eyes flashed with anger. “Go and find out who’s targeting me behind my
back!”
Litecoin Virtual Currency was one of the important industries under Marina’s management.
All these years, nothing had gone wrong with the transactions. Why did something happen at this
juncture?
Someone was definitely targeting Marina behind her back.
The person on the other end of the line looked at the chaos on the trading platform and could not help
but look troubled. “Miss Jones, why don’t you come back? We don’t know how to deal with such a
thing…”
“What’s the point of me hiring you guys!” Marina interrupted the person in a low voice. “I hire you guys
with a high salary to help me solve the problem! I don’t hire you as the one who’ll do
Chapter 711
nothing when there’s a problem! Listen up! I don’t care what method you will use, but you have to find a
way to resume the transaction!”
With that, Marina directly hung up.
Marina gripped her phone tightly, her exquisite and beautiful facial features filled with ferocity.
Of course, Marina wanted to hurry back to the exchange.
But now, Marina could not leave at all.
Originally, Marina’s brothers at home could not tolerate her. If Marina left now, it would be equal to
indirectly tell everyone that she had no place in the Jones family.
Therefore, at this critical juncture, Marina could not leave just like that.
Otherwise, Marina could not stop others from speaking gossip about her in the future.
As Marina was thinking, her phone rang again.
When Marina saw the call from her subordinate, she hung up the phone angrily.
In order to avoid being distracted during the upcoming meeting, Marina simply turned off her phone.
Marina stood under the crabapple tree in frustration. She took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions,
and turned around slightly.
When Marina saw Noah standing behind her at some point, her eyes narrowed slightly, and a trace of
vigilance and defense appeared between her eyebrows. “Why are you here?”
Noah must have overheard their conversation just now.
Noah slowly walked forward and reached out to gently brush away the crabapple flower on her
shoulder. His tone was gentle as

Chapter 711
he said, “Now that you are so cold to me?”
Marina watched Noah’s actions coldly. Her red lips held a mocking and cold smile. “Aren’t you tired of
living with a mask on every day?”
Marina was the youngest and only daughter in the family.
There were four sons in the Jones family. Compared to the other three brothers who had been in the
limelight for a long time, Marina only liked Noah, her second brother, who had always been quiet and
moderate.
At that time, Marina liked Noah so much that she even wanted to sleep with Noah.
However, later on, the other three brothers got into trouble one after another. Only Noah who was
always moderate stayed out of trouble.
At first, Marina simply thought that it was a coincidence. Later on, as Marina grew up, she gradually
realized that Noah was very scheming.
Compared to the other three brothers, the calm and forbearing Noah was the most terrifying.
In terms of ruthlessness, Noah was not inferior to Old Mr. Jones. In terms of cruelty and hypocrisy,
Noah was not inferior to Marina’s nephew, David.
Marina had not been plotted against all these years. It was not because Noah was benevolent to
Marina. It was just because Noah felt that she was a woman and would not affect Noah.
Noah was not angry at all. He still said in a doting tone, “Marina, don’t tell me you really think that the
family doesn’t know what you’ve done?”
Marina did not say anything. She just looked at Noah warily.
“I’m not the only one who knows. Even Dad knows very well.”
-Noah did not care about Marina’s vigilant gaze at all. He said unhurriedly, “It has always been fine in
the past. But why did something happen this time, and it’s on such a special day?”
