Betrayal At The Altar
Chapter 440
“Yes?” Rachel looked up at Old Mr. Johnson.
Old Mr. Johnson’s clouded eyes were clearer than ever. He put away his usual kindness and peace and looked at her
seriously. “Every step of life is important. When you are young and passionate, you may think that you have
everything under control, but there are some things that you can’t afford.
“Do you know that if you take a step wrong, you will be consigned to eternal da mn* tion?”
Rachel pursed her lips and silently put down the glass of water in her hand.
At this moment, Tom said in good time, “Rae-Rae, call off the marriage!”
This was the third person who said that.
However, Rachel could not understand why everyone was advising her to call off the marriage.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSuspicions that had been suppressed in the bottom of her heart for a long time swept through her heart.
She looked up at her uncle, Tom, with a complicated gaze.
Sensing her gaze, Tom slowly raised his eyes and looked Rachel in the eye. “Rae-Rae, I might as well tell you that
the Johnson family is firmly against this marriage.”
They were firmly against it….
It had to be said that this word was very ingenious.
It seemed that all these years, the Johnson family knew about her marriage very well. Only she, the person
involved, was kept in the dark.
If David hadn’t appeared in front of Old Mr. Johnson with a token, the Johnson family originally didn’t intend to
acknowledge this marriage.
But why?
This marriage came out of nowhere. The Johnson family was so determined. against this marriage. All signs
indicated that there was an unspeakable secret behind this marriage.
Could it be that she would have to pay a painful price for marrying David?
Or rather, would her life be in danger if she married David?
Seeing that Rachel did not speak for a long time, Old Mr. Johnson’s expression became even more solemn.
“Can you tell me the reason?” Rachel looked up at Old Mr. Johnson with a
probing gaze. Then, she looked at Tom. “At first, you were silent before me about this marriage. Now, you’re
determined to oppose this marriage. What’s the reason?”
Old Mr. Johnson rubbed his index finger with his right thumb and said insincerely, “You’re still young. You don’t need
to get married so early. Besides, with the Johnson family’s current status, we don’t need to cling to any power.”
“Is that so?” Rachel muttered in a low voice. There was a faint smile on her lips and a vague meaning in her eyes.
Obviously, she did not believe the reason Old Mr. Johnson said at all.
With the Johnson family’s status as the richest in Seaxas, they really didn’t need to cling to power. But the reason of

“Grandfather, I’m not a three-year-old child anymore. Do you think I’ll believe such a reason?” Rachel raised her
eyes and looked at Old Mr. Johnson casually. Her eyes were filled with curiosity. “What are you hiding from us? Why
do you want me to call off the marriage? Where did this marriage come from?”
Old Mr. Johnson looked at Rachel’s probing gaze and knew that he had revealed too many emotions today.
He took a deep breath to calm himself down and said calmly, “This marriage was arranged by your mother back
then. I don’t know the details.”
Darcy, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said, “Miss Grey, Mr. Johnson is your own grandfather, and he will
never hurt you.”
“Rae-Rae, marriage is not child’s play. I advise you to think twice before you act.”
All of them were persuading Rachel to call off the marriage.
There was no reason.
However, it made Rachel even more curious about the origin of this marriage.
Her intuition told her that there must be something hidden behind this marriage!
