“The eight branches of the collateral family should indeed be severely punished for harming David. Not
to mention confiscating all their assets, even if all of them are removed from the family tree now, they
deserve it. But…” Harley sized up the expression on Old Mr. Jones’s face and rubbed the thumb ring
on his thumb with his fingers. “Although Miss Marina’s mistake implicated and humiliated the entire
Jones family, it’s not a heinous crime. You publicly expelled her from the Jones family. Isn’t this
punishment a little too much?”
By saying these words, Harley seemed to be persuading Old Mr. Jones to be lenient, but in fact, he
was hinting to everyone that Old Mr. Jones was cold-blooded and heartless. For the benefit of the
family, Old Mr. Jones could even abandon his biological daughter.
The people present were extremely smart. Of course, they could understand Harley’s meaning.
For a moment, everyone’s expressions were intriguing.
Upon hearing this, Old Mr. Jones turned to look at Harley of the Elders. His eyes narrowed slightly, and
a dark and complicated look flickered in his eyes.
Old Mr. Jones’s lips curled into a smile. “The Jones family’s rules. have always been strict. I’m just
following the family rules. After all, she’s my biological daughter. How can I not dote on her? As her
father, I have the responsibility of not teaching her well. Now that Marina has been expelled from the
Jones family, she naturally can’t be considered one of the Jones family. As her biological father, I
should be punished.
“From today onwards, I will stay at home and reflect on my mistakes. If you have anything to discuss,
feel free to look for David.”
With that, Old Mr. Jones stood up and excused himself to the crowd before turning to leave.
Chapter 720
Harley narrowed his eyes slightly as he watched Old Mr. Jones leave.
In order not to be criticized by others, Old Mr. Jones was even willing to let go of his biological
daughter.
By saying that now that Marina had been expelled from the Jones family, she naturally couldn’t be
considered one of the Jones family, Old Mr. Jones cut off the others’ thoughts of seeking revenge on
Marina.
It seemed like Old Mr. Jones ruthlessly punished Marina, but it was actually a cover-up to protect her.
Marina was removed from the Jones family, and she would no longer be targeted by the Jones family’s
enemies.
Old Mr. Jones was getting more and more cunning as he got older.
However, it was unknown if Marina could live up to Old Mr. Jones’s painstaking planning.
It was not until Old Mr. Jones’s figure completely disappeared from his sight that Harley slowly
retracted his gaze. “Today’s incident was sudden and everyone must have already been mentally and
physically exhausted. Let’s end the meeting here.”
Everyone couldn’t wait to leave the Jones family long before,
Hearing this, they immediately stood up and left as if they had been pardoned.
After Noah left Gentlemen Pavilion, he brought his trusted subordinate back to the meditation hall.
Noah’s trusted subordinate brewed a cup of coffee for Noah. When he offered it with both hands, he
secretly sized up the expression on Noah’s face. After thinking for a while, he carefully said, “Sir, Miss
Marina has fallen now. Should we take the opportunity…”
As the man spoke, he placed his fingers on his neck and made a throat-slitting gesture.
The meaning was self-evident.
Chapter 720
Noah picked up the cup on the table. With his other hand, he lifted the lid and stirred the spoon. “It
seems that you haven’t comprehended the words of my dad.”
The trusted subordinate was confused, but he said humbly and respectfully, “I’m sorry. I trouble you to
explain, sir.”
“Dad kicked her out of the Jones family. It looks like a severe punishment, but it’s actually protection.”
Noah put down the cup in his hand and said unhurriedly, “As Dad said that he would kick Marina out of
the family, he repeatedly emphasized that Marina would not be counted as one of the Jones family
from now on. He’s warning everyone. If they want revenge, feel free to take revenge. on the Jones
family. It has nothing to do with Marina.
“On the other hand, Dad mentioned that it’s his fault for not teaching Marina well. This means that he
still admits that Marina carries his blood and is his biological daughter. Even if Marina is no longer the
Jones family’s fifth daughter, she is still his daughter. If anyone dares to hurt Marina, he will avenge
them in the name of her father.
“Dad’s words are watertight. Not only did he stop others from speaking gossip, but he also stopped the
Elders from seeking at chance to control the Jones family due to this matter in the future. He also used
Marina as a living example to hit everyone. From now on, if anyone humiliated the Jones family, their
outcome would only be worse than Marina’s. It could be said to be killing three birds with one stone.”
When his trusted subordinate heard this, he felt a lingering fear in his heart.
If he hadn’t comprehended Old Mr. Jones’s meaning, he would have fallen into Old Mr. Jones’s trap.
Noah sighed faintly. “A parent’s love for their child is far-reaching. Dad has done his best for her.”
“Poor Miss Marina. She was smart all her life, but she was muddle-headed for a moment. She actually
stepped into a young lady’s trick.” The trusted subordinate shook his head and smiled
Chapter 720
bitterly. An imperceptible mocking look flashed in his eyes.
When Noah heard this, his eyebrows moved slightly. He raised his indifferent eyes and muttered softly,
“She was indeed
muddle-headed.”
However, Noah knew very well that Marina had suffered such a huge setback this time, definitely not
because that woman called Rachel was lucky.
From the first moment Noah saw Rachel, he sensed that Rachel was not as simple as she looked.
Later on, the eight branches of the collateral family suffered. Now, Marina suffered a huge setback too.
All of these were related to Rachel.
However, after Noah thought about it, it made sense. A woman who could be fancied by David could
not be a useless woman only with good looks.
When Noah thought of this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a clear coldness flickered in his eyes. “Go
and investigate the background of this woman called Rachel.”
“Yes, sir.”
After everyone dispersed, David returned to his courtyard.
As soon as David entered, he saw Rachel sitting in front of the mirror.
Hearing footsteps, Rachel quickly stuffed the mirror under the pillow and tucked her long hair behind
her neck. “You’re back so soon?”
David didn’t say anything. He just stared at Rachel with dark eyes.
David’s scorching and sharp gaze seemed to shoot two holes in Rachel’s body.
“Miss Grey…” Chris rushed in with the ointment. When Chris noticed David, she stopped talking.
Chris had just turned around to go out to take the ointment, but
Chapter 720
when she returned, she suddenly stepped into such a tense atmosphere.
For a moment, Chris did not know if she should feel sorry for herself or mourn for Rachel for three
seconds.
Rachel stood up and walked over. She took the ointment from Chris’s hand and gave her a look,
indicating for her to leave first.
Chris was immediately full of gratitude. She turned around and left without looking back.
The door closed again. Rachel approached David. “Who provoked you to be so angry?”
“You don’t believe me?” David asked.
The smile on Rachel’s lips froze. She held David’s hand and walked toward the bed under the window.
“When did I not trust you?”
David’s dark eyes were bottomless, making it impossible for anyone to see through his emotions. “You
don’t believe that I will abandon my blood ties to stand on your side, and you don’t believe that I will put
you before family.”
If Rachel really believed David, she would not have chosen to put on such a show in front of everyone
and even him./
Rachel placed herself in the position of the weak to gain sympathy and to force the Jones family to deal
with Marina in order to stop the public from speaking gossip.
