Chapter 760

The next morning, the sun shone brightly.

Rachel woke up according to her biological clock. After washing up, she had a simple breakfast and set off for the company.

After the morning meeting ended and she headed towards her office, she received a phone call from the butler, Mr. Chadwick. “Miss Grey, it’s me.”

“Mr. Chadwick, what’s the matter?” Rachel held her breath when she answered the phone.

She had kept the news about Tom’s incident a secret from her grandfather.

Now that Mr. Chadwick was calling, did her grandfather find out?

Mr. Chadwick sensed the tension in Rachel’s voice and chuckled lightly. “It’s nothing. Old Mr. Johnson had been wanting to see you for a while and wants you to come home for a meal when you’re free.

Rachel secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing his words. “Maybe in a few days.”

She would go back home with Tom and the others then.

Mr. Chadwick replied, “Alright.”

After hanging up, Rachel held her phone and walked towards the

restroom.

As she approached the door, she faintly heard a low discussion inside. “Have you seen the news?”

“Are you talking about the news of the guy from the Johnson family who got arrested?”

“Who else could it be? I never thought someone so wealthy and powerful could be so shameless.”

“Who in this world would complain about having too much money? But just a short while ago, he was recognized as one of the top ten outstanding individuals, and now he’s been caught doing all these things. It’s like a slap in the face. Not to mention it happened so fast.”
