Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia

Chapter 851

Panic flashed across Hans Grey’s eyes.

He bumped into Lucas Johnson when he was chased out of Johnson Corporation.

Lucas warned him rudely that if he dared to appear before Rachel Grey again, the Grey family would suffer the fate of bankruptcy.

His warning was like a nightmare that would not go away and kept haunting Hans at all times.

True to human nature, no one learned their lesson, especially when they did not have to pay the price.

Hans was confident the Johnson family would not dare to hurt him because he was Rache’s father. Otherwise, Rachel would have to bear the blame of a heartless daughter who did not care about her father’s wellbeing.

He was equally confident that today’s plan was foolproof. Rachel would no doubt cave in and submit to him obediently.

However, he underestimated his daughter’s heartless indifference and overestimated his own ability.

In the past ten years or more, Rachel had grown up o be an independent woman; she was no longer the child Hans could scold and abuse at will. Moreover, she did not care about their father-daughter relationship or give a damn about him.

Han had always thought everything was under his control, but he did not realize it ended when Rachel left the family.

“Hans Grey, do you think the Johnson family won’t dare to do anything to you just because you are Rae-Rae’s father?” Lucas asked nonchalantly, not knowing that it was Hans’s assumption.

A fleeting panic flashed across Hans’s eyes.

Lucas took a puff of his cigarette and slowly exhaled a grayish-white smoke. The corners of his mouth curled into an arc with a hint of wickedness. “Get it straight! The Grey family has secured a sound foothold in Pollister all these years because of my aunt and not because the Johnson family fears you.”

He held the cigarette between his fingers indifferently and looked at Hans in disdain. The Johnson family is not afraid of being labeled heartless.”
