Chapter 515
After carefully dressing Lucas’s wound, Rachel smiled cryptically at him. “We still don’t know who’s who.”
Hearing her words, Lucas didn’t know what to say.
In fact, what she said made sense. Rachel was not any young lady who only knew how to enjoy life.
In terms of courage and cunning, she was comparable to Old Mr. Johnson back when he was young.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have saved the Smith Group from the brink of
bankruptcy in a single year and taken it to new heights under her direction in at span of two years.
When Lucas put his shirt back on, he glanced at the wound on his back. “After so many years, you’re still as skilled
as ever.”
Hearing this, Rachel stopped packing the first aid kit for a moment.
She lowered her eyes and pursed her lips. There was no emotion in her calm tone when she answered him, “I’m
still a little rusty.”
“Want to go out sometime and have some fun?” Lucas asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRachel looked up at him.
After putting on his shirt, Lucas used his toned fingers to button his shirt up. “Dan has a hunting ground near
Elderville. Shall we go there and have some fun tomorrow?”
At the hunting ground.
This was the first time she had seen it in Scaxas.
Rachel thought for a few moments and nodded, “Okay.”
She hadn’t ridden a horse in a long time.
It had been a long time since she enjoyed the feeling of freedom.
The Cruise family.
During this period of time, the Cruise family was indeed flattered. Especially Olivia Cruise.
She did not expect to receive Marina’s invitation.
It was Marina Jones!
From the Jones family of Aureliana.
This indicated that behind her was an infinite supply of riches, in addition to the identity and position that everyone
aspired to have.
If the Cruise family had the chance to work together with the Jones family, their future would definitely be a bright
one.
Not only might the Smith family’s status as the wealthiest be challenged at that time, but so could the Johnson
family’s.
“Olivia, what did you guys talk about today?” Richard looked at Olivia and asked. Olivia looked at her father. She
could feel a hint of flattery in his words.
She lowered her eyes and said calmly, “It’s nothing. She mentioned that she wants to take me in as her
goddaughter and hoped that I’d come back and ask for your opinion.”
Hearing this, Richard’s eyes flickered with excitement.
He completely forgot about his
age.
Olivia’s acceptance as Marina’s goddaughter would be a huge step forward for the Cruise family.
Richard suppressed his excitement. He tried his best to control his trembling voice and asked, “Then, what did you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsay?”
“I said that if she doesn’t mind, I naturally won’t mind either,” Olivia answered. “However, she said that she hopes
that I can take over the company as soon as possible. She wants to take me under her wing and help me grow
professionally.” Richard’s enthusiasm faded as soon as he heard this. He gently twirled his thumb and index finger.
He looked at her for a moment and then said, “So, in order for her to take you in as her goddaughter, she hopes
that you can take over the Cruise Group?”
Olivia nodded and lowered her head to admire her manicure. She said casually, “You can understand it that way.
However, she said that as long as I take over the company, the Cruise family’s status will definitely be close to the
Smith family with her help.”
Such bait was enough to tempt Richard.
Over the years, the Cruise family had gradually gone downhill. No one wanted to return to his family’s former glory
more than he did.
Who would willingly become an ant trampled underfoot, compared to living the life of an exceptional person?
After pondering for a moment, Richard’s eyes flickered with determination, and said, “I’ll draft the appointment
letter tomorrow morning!”
As he spoke, he stood up and went to the study to call his secretary.
