David casually took a piece of apple from the plate and tasted it. It was moderately sweet and sour.
Then, he handed it to Rachel. His dark eyes stared at her with a gentle light. “Why are you suddenly
asking this?”
Rachel took the fruit plate from David and put down the cup in her hand. “I saw a few familiar faces.
when I came in just now.”
If she remembered correctly, those people had appeared in Sandalwood Hills.
“It’s them.” David’s thin lips curled into a faint smile, and his eyes were filled with love.
Rachel raised her eyebrows slightly. “It looks like I’m holding you back.”
David always had Billy by his side before, and now Yann joined the team. Chris had become Rachel’s.
personal bodyguard, and David had also brought back the people who were guarding Sandalwood
Hills. He had done everything that he should and could.
However, the enemy was in the dark, and they were in the open. If the other party really attacked, they
could not defend against it.
“Just in case of emergencies.” David did not want to give Rachel any psychological burden.
Moreover, he disagreed with Rachel’s idea that she was a burden.
After a while, Vulture swaggered in while Blackhawk stayed outside and patrolled the surroundings
with the other three.
He pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose to the top of his head and stretched his arm. Just as
he was about to flip into the sofa, David’s sharp gaze casually swept over.
Vulture lowered his gaze guiltily and casually patted the back of the sofa. He muttered to hide his
embarrassment, “This sofa is really clean.”
Rachel did not speak, but a hidden smile appeared in her eyes.
“Is this island also the Jones family’s property?” Vulture picked up an apple and took a bite before
realizing he had asked a stup*d question.
Since David was sitting here, it was naturally the Jones family’s property.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment before Vulture’s phone suddenly rang.
It was unknown what he saw, but his expression changed subtly.
Especially when he looked at David, his gaze was even more intriguing.
Vulture put away his phone and weighed the apple in his hand. He suddenly felt bored. “Mr. Jones,
there’s something I want to ask you alone.”
He controlled his emotions, but he could not help but grit his teeth.
David narrowed his eyes. Then, he stood up and walked out.
Rachel did not say anything but just watched with interest as the two talked in riddles before her.
Although she did not know what message Vulture had just received, she guessed that it must be
related to her or… it was related to the car accident at the T-junction.
Otherwise, with Vulture’s personality, there was no need to hide it from her like this.
After they walked out, Vulture lit a cigarette and looked at David with a solemn expression. “Did you
find out about the car accident?”
“What are you trying to say?” David lowered his gaze. No one could see the expression in his eyes, nor
could they guess his emotions.
Vulture pursed his lips and took a puff of his cigarette. “I know from the Red Flame that you and Twelve
are engaged, but this engagement was agreed by Old Mrs. Jones against all odds. Not every one of
the Jones family acknowledges it.”
David did not say anything, but his eyebrows moved slightly, indicating for Vulture to continue.
Meeting his gaze, Vulture found it inexplicably difficult to say what was on the tip of his tongue.
David was like an existence above everyone else. No matter who stood in front of him, no matter how
arrogant the other party was, he had no choice but to admit defeat in front of David.
“You can take a horse to the water, but you can’t make him drink. Since Old Mr. Jones disapproves of
her, why do you have to force her to stay?” Vulture hesitated for a long time before finally speaking up,
“Forgive me for being blunt, but your Jones family is not a place where people can live a peaceful life.
Do you want to watch Twelve die before your eyes?”
Over the years, Vulture had seen all kinds of strange things.
It was not uncommon to hear of people killing their own siblings or parents to inherit their family’s
wealth.
However, he admired Old Mr. Jones the most regarding cu**ing and scheming.
In order to avoid getting involved, he even used his own daughter.
If Lone Wolf had not found out through the clues, this fire would have probably burned Marina Jones.
It was said that the love between a father and daughter ran deep, but Old Mr. Jones was cruel enough.
to make Marina Jones the scapegoat.
How laughable and pathetic!
“You know very well what he’s capable of. If he really wants to do it, she might not be able to escape
unscathed.” David’s tone was calm, and there was no emotion on his face.
All signs indicated that he already had an answer in his heart before this accident.
Vulture frowned and stared at David.
He really did not understand the twists and turns in the big families and didn’t bother to get involved.
He took a deep drag on his cigarette, then threw the butt on the ground and crushed it with his foot.
“What does he mean by doing that?”
“To test,” David said.
He wanted to test Rachel’s temperament and courage, as well as David’s attitude.
Of course, they could not rule out the possibility that he wanted to use David to beat up the branch
families.
Old Mr. Jones had always been like this.
It was fine if he did not make a move. But once he did, he would scheme against everyone to
maximize the effect.
The frustrated Vulture took out another cigarette and lit it. He said mockingly, “He raised you up. and
you’re the successor he’s most satisfied with. If anything happens to you, isn’t he afraid that he’ll regret
it for the rest of his life?”
“I don’t think so.” David looked at Vulture. “Besides, if something really happens, she will be fine.”
His deep voice was not emotional, and it was so calm that one could not detect the fluctuations of his.
emotions. However, Vulture could sense the arrogant and resolute spirit and the unwavering
determination.
Vulture’s heart could not help but tremble involuntarily.
In the past, he had never understood what kind of appeal David had that could make so many people
willingly work for him.
Now, he understood a little.
David’s confidence and methods would indeed convince countless people.
As the saying went, the most dangerous place was also safest. This was the most suitable saying for
David Jones.
Before coming out, he wanted to warn David, but now it seemed that his previous plan was ridiculous.
However, Vulture still had to say what he needed to say. “Remember what you said today. If you betray
Twelve, I will definitely bring the Red Flame Army to flatten the entire Aureliana!”
David looked at him indifferently. “I’m afraid you won’t have the chance.”
Meeting David’s gaze again, Vulture tried his best not to let his aura falter, but his inherent fear and
awe of the strong gradually caused his aura to wane.
However, he refused to show weakness. He snorted arrogantly and turned to leave.
