Chapter 532
A loud slap landed squarely on the assistant’s body.
The assistant sta**ered and fell to the ground in a sorry state. There was a trace of blood at the corner of her
mouth, and her face was visibly red and swollen.
“Don’t pretend to be innocent here! What were you doing earlier?” Olivia glanced at Rachel. Then, she snorted and
looked down at the assistant who had fallen to the ground. “You have to admit your mistake! What’s the point of
hiding here like a coward? Do you expect me to cover for you and pay for your mistakes?
“Looking at my humble apology, you must be very happy! You didn’t even blame. me for slapping you. I gave you a
way out with good intentions, but you still insist on being high and mighty. You deserve to suffer for it!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia’s words sounded like she was criticizing her assistant for not admitting her mistake and apologizing. However,
judging from her words and actions, she was clearly using the pretext of criticizing her assistant to speak to Rachel!
Noticing this, Marina did not stop Olivia. Instead, she sat on the sofa and lowered her head to admire her newly-
made manicure. She smiled faintly with a hint of coldness.
In her opinion, Rachel was so arrogant because she was spoiled!
Marina had already given Rachel a gesture of respect by bringing her people to apologize.
Since Rachel did not respect her gesture of respect, Marina naturally wouldn’t indulge her anymore.
After all, in her eyes, Rachel was not qualified to marry into the Jones family.
“At the end of the day, she’s just like a dog you keep around.” Marina lowered her head and said slowly, “Of course,
she has to spoil you and respect you, Otherwise, where do you think she gets her confidence to be arrogant and
bully others?”
Marina’swords were even harsher, and her hostility towards Rachel was obvious. However, Rachel did not seem to
understand Marina at all. She only looked up at Marina expressionlessly.
“Try it.” David handed the peeled apple to Rachel.
Then, David raised his indifferent eyes and glanced at Marina. A hint of coldness flickered through his clear eyes. “A
dog must be intelligent enough to rely on its owner’s power to bully others. A dog must know which master to
follow. But if the master cannot even protect themselves, how can they be trusted to care about the life and death
of their dog?”
The expression on Marina’s face changed slightly. There was a terrifying coldness. hidden in her eyes, but she still
maintained a smile. “David, what do you mean?”
“I meant what I said.” David took out a tissue and wiped his long fingers clean. His tone carried a chilling coldness
as if his lips were coated with a layer of ice. “I respect you as an elder, but if you don’t know how to appreciate it,

Upon hearing this, Marina could no longer maintain her smile. Her fingers on the sofa silently tightened, and her
sharp nails pierced deeply into the sofa. She said furiously, “David, I’m your aunt!”
Compared to the other branches of the Jones family, she was the daughter born after ten months of pregnancy
from Old Mrs. Jones herself, making her the biological aunt of David.
With that, the room fell into a strange silence.
The sound of Rachel chewing on the apple became especially clear, but it did not sound harsh.
David caught a glimpse of Rachel nibbling on the apple. Her elegant movements were like a noble cat eating slowly.
His icy demeanor softened slightly as he spoke to Marina, “If you don’t know how to behave like the other branches
of the family and stay out of trouble, I can give you some free lessons. Even if my grandma finds out, I don’t think
she’ll object.”
