Chapter 674
Before Jimmy could gulp down the wine in his mouth, he choked on Grayson’s words and coughed repeatedly.
His foot, which was hidden under the table, kicked him angrily. Then, he deliberately lowered his voice. “Are you
f**king done?”
They had been good friends for many years, which was why he was trying hard to get Grayson out of trouble at the
moment.
However, this stubborn man was out of his mind. He insisted on finding a shortcut on the path to death!
Grayson looked innocent after being kicked, but he ignored Jimmy. Instead, he stared straight at Rachel as if he was
confirming something.
Seeing him like this. Thomas put down the wine glass in his hand. When he took a warm handkerchief to wipe his
hands, he deliberately lowered his voice and warned, “Stop, for G*d’s sake!”
He was blatantly coveting David’s woman, which made people present wonder if he was courting death. On the
other hand, Georgia looked at Rachel with a gossipy expression. A meaningful smile flashed across her eyes.
Under everyone’s confused gaze, Grayson said with a serious expression, “Miss Grey, have you participated in the
international military competition before?”
Rachel paused for a moment.
She raised her eyes and looked at Grayson, holding the wine glass between her fingers and shook it slightly. She
said in a dignified manner, “Yes, I have.”
“I told you I wouldn’t get it wrong!” Grayson slapped his thigh excitedly, a relieved smile appearing on his face. “I
saw you in the qualifier a few years ago.”
In an instant, everyone’s gaze fell on Rachel.
The international military competition?
Qualifier?
Everyone knew that this competition had extremely high requirements for military literacy, as well as extremely

Most of the participants were men. Even if a woman obtained the qualification to participate, she would often be
eliminated in the third round of the selection
However, Rachel made it to the qualifier?
Everyone looked at Rachel’s thin arms and legs. It was hard for them to imagine how she faced such torturous
training.
“Grayson, did you get the wrong person?” Georgia managed to regain some rationality in her shock. She tore her
gaze away from Rachel with difficulty and looked at Grayson. She pursed her lips stiffly. “Miss Grey just said that she
is average-looking. You…”
“No!” Grayson said firmly, interrupting Georgia. “A few years ago, I was invited to visit the selection camp. Miss
Grey was indeed present at that time.”
Among the burly group of men, Rachel’s existence was indeed eye-catching.
Her attractive face was like a white rose that stood out from the mud, pure and beautiful.
“I didn’t expect Mr. Bowes to remember the past so clearly.” Rachel looked at Grayson with a faint smile.
She did not want others to know about what happened during that period of time.
When she participated in that match, she was still angry with Lucas. She was completely deceived in a fit of pique.
She had thought that this matter would not be known by outsiders, but now, it was exposed by Grayson.
Grayson did not seem to understand the deeper meaning of her words. He only thought that Rachel’s words were
really praising his good memory. “It’s not that I have a good memory, but Miss Grey’s results were really
outstanding. It’s also because you’re the first to reject the invitation from the head of state and the only person to
reject the exceptional admission qualification.”
Grayson still remembered Rachel proudly and confidently saying “I don’t care” in front of everyone.
This was the reason why he could remember it so clearly.
Rachel still had an elegant smile on her lips, but her eyes could not hide her intention to tear him apart.
“This guy just can’t understand what I mean, can he?” she wondered.
She held the knife in her hand. As the light flashed past, it reflected a cold light.
Landon interjected in time, “Everyone, let’s eat, okay?”
The others nodded and agreed.
Rachel ate silently, but there was a hint of impatience in her eyes.
Everyone’s gaze fell on her from time to time, which was really difficult to ignore.
She was about to get up and leave, but David brought the cut steak to her and even thoughtfully picked up the side
dishes.
Now, Rachel had no choice but to eat.
When Georgia saw this, she felt uncomfortable again. She held the knife and fork tightly with both hands
and cut her food hard in secret.
After eating, Rachel pulled off her napkin and stood up to leave. “I’ll go to the restroom. You guys just keep eating.”
“I’ll accompany you.” David put down the knife and fork in his hand. Just as he was about to get up, Rachel placed a
hand on his shoulder. “No need. Besides, Chris’s accompanying me, right?”
With that, she turned around and left.
After Rachel left, Georgia couldn’t help but ask Grayson curiously, “Have you really seen her in the international
military competition?”
“Didn’t Miss Grey admit it herself?!” Grayson said.
At this moment, David raised the glass of wine in his hand and took a sip. He placed the glass on the table and
made a clear sound, which was like a silent warning.
Georgia’s heart tightened. She pursed her lips stiffly. “I just think that it’s unbelievable…”
She thought that Rachel was just a pretty but worthless woman.
If Rachel had participated in the international military competition, however, it would be different.
Compared to Georgia’s surprise, Jimmy and Landon were much calmer.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter all, they had seen Rachel fight eight at the same time.
Initially, they thought that Rachel had Lucas as her “private coach”, so it was natural for her to know something
about military combat skills. Now, they realized how naive they were in the past.
At this moment, Thomas was slowly cutting the steak. He looked up at David and said casually, “Your fiancée just
taught us a lesson. You can’t judge a book by its cover.”
When he first saw Rachel, he was indeed stunned by her eye-catching face.
Her attractive face made it easy for people to ignore the abilities she had.
David shook the wine glass as he looked at the rose-colored liquid sliding in the glass like a blooming rose. “As the
granddaughter of the richest family in Seaxas, the Johnson family, she’s not to be
underestimated,”
Every word of his was filled with pride.
However, everyone present knew very well that even if the Johnson family, the richest family in Seaxas. was rich
enough to rival a country, to David, their wealth was not even worth mentioning
He was now looking up to the Johnson family, the richest family in Seaxas, because he loved Rachel “Yeah, a real
princess of the Johnson family.” Thomas said
There was no disdain in his words, only indescribable admiration
At the same time. Rachel was led to the sky garden by the staff.
The garden matched the night well.
Amidst the flowers, flying fireflies could be seen.
Rachel sat on the swing and stared at the nearby building. “What is that place?”
“The Olson family’s property,” Chris said.
Rachel nodded. “The Olson family, one of the Five Great Families in Aureliana?”
“That’s right, Chris replied. At the same time, she noticed that the surrounding lights were gradually dimming,
making Rachel stand out under the lights.
An ominous feeling rose in her heart. “Miss Grey, it’s cold at night. Let’s go back now.”
Rachel nodded.
The moment she got up, however, a bullet cut through the air and headed for Rachel’s head
