Chapter 461
As soon as Rachel finished speaking, the huge office fell into such silence that even a falling needle could be heard.

rose with thorns.
After a while, Marina said in a low and gentle voice. “Miss Grey, you surprised me completely. I’m starting to admire
you a little.”
What she had said sounded like praise at first, but on second thought, one would find that it was more like a
provocation.
Rachel placed the cup in her hand on the table and met Marina’s gaze fearlessly. “I hope I won’t disappoint you.”
Marina smiled, put out the cigarette in her hand, and threw it into the ashtray. Then, she picked up her bag, stood
up, and glanced down at Rachel. Her glance contained too many emotions, which were contempt, probing, and a
trace sizing Rachel up.

their conversation, David did not mention the woman called Rachel Grey at all.

woman.
“Where are we going now, Miss Jones?” the driver in the front row asked
cautiously.
Marina came back to her senses and looked up at the driver. There was a hint of laziness in her low and gentle
voice. “I’m going to see my mother.”
After Marina left, the coldness in David’s eyes did not dissipate. He held Rachel’s hand tightly, seemingly very
nervous.
“What’s that?” Rachel noticed a black box on the table.
David followed her gaze. “It’s a gift from her.”

“It’s just a birthday. There’s nothing to prepare.” David reached out and wrapped his arm around her slender waist.
He pulled her into his arms again and looked up at her. A hint of gloominess flashed across his unfathomable black
eyes. “Besides, you know what I want the most for my birthday.”

her lips fiercely.
