Chapter 663
Six hours later, the plane successfully arrived at the airport of Aureliana.
The cabin door opened, and a group of people slowly descended the gangway.
Aureliana was surrounded by the sea on three sides. The scenery was pleasant.
It was summer now in Aureliana. The moment people stepped out of the cabin, they felt a hot, humid wind blowing against their faces, making them feel a little irritable for no reason.
Not far away, a row of Rolls-Royces stood neatly like motionless guards.
On one side of the gangway stood a special receptionist.
The receptionist wore a blue suit, had slicked-back hair, and had a pair of rimless glasses on the bridge of his nose. He looked like a refined rascal.
Yann Jones saw David’s and Rachel’s hands clasped tightly together, and his eyes were filled with shock.
Though Billy had given him a heads-up before, Yann still found it unbelievable when he saw it with his own eyes.
According to the rumors about David in Aureliana, either David did not like women, or he liked men. Some brave young ladies from noble families climbed into David’s bed. However, without exception, they were all thrown out and given a fierce warning.
Not only did they feel shame, but their entire families also lost face.
David’s subordinates, though they had worked for him for a long time, also suspected that David had some physiological problems.
Now the rumors had collapsed, but the subordinates found it hard to accept the truth.
Sensing David’s sharp gaze. Yann immediately composed himself and greeted David and Rachel respectfully. Mr. Jones, Miss Grey”
David nodded slightly. He held Rachel’s hand and bent down to get into the car.
After getting into the car, Yann, who was serving as the driver, asked, “Mr. Jones, are we going back to
the old residence?”
“Return to the villa residence!” David ordered in a deep voice.
“Yes,” said Yann, but he glanced at Rachel through the rearview mirror.
Old Mr. Jones had long heard of the existence of this Miss Grey.
He repeatedly sent some people to investigate her in detail, but without exception, they returned. empty-handed.
Even the people sent by the Elders to go deep into Seaxas were eliminated by David.
Now, David even brought Rachel back to the villa residence. It could be seen how important Rachel was to David.
When their car arrived at the airport exit, a group of people in uniforms were checking the relevant cars routinely.
However, when seeing the license plate number of David’s car, these people immediately stood still and let the car pass without any inspection.
While Rachel was seeing this scene, a meaningful smile appeared on her face.
That David’s car had received such special treatment was enough to show that the Jones family was

quite important in Aureliana.
On the way to the villa residence, Rachel quietly leaned on David’s shoulder and looked out of the car window at the rapidly retreating scenery.
The skyscrapers towered into the clouds. Under the neon lights, they were filled with the sense of technology of the future
There were all kinds of luxury cars on the streets. Even those limited edition sports cars looked ordinary here
Just before eleven o’clock, the Rolls-Royces drove in an orderly manner into the Peckham Palace halfway up the mountain.
The entire Wetanean palace-styled building was brightly lit, like a pearl embedded halfway up the mountain. It was dazzling, gorgeous, and noble.
Yann walked forward and opened the car door respectfully
Rachel got out of the car and looked around. She vaguely noticed a similar building not far away.
However, that building was not as dazzling as the Peckham Palace in front of her.
While looking up, Yann noticed the direction in which Rachel was looking at. He explained. That’s the building for the Elders Miss Grey, you’d better not get close to it.”
There was no ambiguity in his words. He was just kindly reminding her.
After all, those people from the Elders were trying their best to meet Rachel.
If Rachel took the initiative to go to the building for the Elders, it would be no different from walking into a trap.
Rachel retracted her gaze and slowly walked toward the stairs.
After entering the villa residence, she saw a huge fountain made of white marble.
Glancing at Rachel, who had walked away, Yann asked David respectfully. “Mr. Jones, what time shall I come to pick you up tomorrow morning?”
David adjusted his cuffs and said casually, “Nine o’clock.”
“All right.” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
After watching David leave, Yann finally felt completely relieved.
However, he could not help but look at Rachel again.
“If the people in the old residence know that Mr. Jones has brought a woman back this time and that this woman is Miss Grey, on whom they have always looked down, what would they think?”
At this moment, Billy walked to his side and patted him on the shoulder. “Stop sighing. After so many years, it’s time for Aureliana to change.”
“What do you know?” Yann glared at him angrily. “There will be a cabinet meeting in a few days, and countless people are watching us in the dark now!”
If anything went wrong at this time, they couldn’t afford the consequences!
Thinking of this, Yann could not help but sigh again.
Meanwhile, Rachel walked into the magnificent living room and looked around.
The crystal chandeliers reflected bright light. The Wetanean-style wall cloth and champagne-colored furniture matched each other, giving off an extravagant and luxurious aura.
She suddenly noticed the oil painting hanging at the staircase. She raised her eyebrows a little,
walked over, and reached out to touch it gently.
As a masterpiece from the Baroque era, “The Glass Bottle Flowers in a Stone Niche” was an outstanding example of the golden age of floral still-life paintings. It was said that very few people. had ever kept it. Now, it was hung on the wall of a corridor for decoration. It was really a waste of rare
treasures.
“Do you like it?” David walked to her side and naturally wrapped his arm around her slender waist.
Rachel glanced sideways at him. “I can’t say that I like it. I just don’t know what to do after seeing the inhumane side of Mr. Jones.”
David hugged her waist and walked toward the sofa in the living room. “There are still many. paintings in the rooms upstairs. Do you want to take a look?”
“Maybe some other time,” Rachel said. She couldn’t help but yawn.
David frowned a little. “Are you sleepy?”
“Yes, I am. Rachel’s eyes flashed slightly. She worried that David would notice something amiss, so she casually made up an excuse. “Maybe I haven’t rested well for the past two days.”
“Go back to your room and rest now.” David raised his hand and touched her cheek.
Rachel agreed. She was assigned to a bedroom on the third floor.
After washing her face and rinsing her mouth, she lay on the bed. She forced herself to stay awake so that she could make notes in her journal.
The notes were as follows: “October 25th. It was a day with sunny and genial weather. I followed David to Aureliana. But I was especially sleepy today probably because of the side effects of the special medicine.”
After completing the full stop under her fingertips, Rachel finally could not resist the intense fatigue. and fell into a deep sleep.
After she fell asleep, the door was quietly pushed open.
A tall figure slowly approached.
The man lowered his head and looked at her gently as if he had an inexhaustible affection for her.
He leaned down and planted a soft kiss between her eyebrows.
As he turned to leave, he stepped on Rachel’s cell phone.
