Chapter 24 Why Was He Here?
“Brat! How dare you talk to me like that?” Henry’s expression was livid and he wished he could slap her. “Rachel, remember this. Unless the heavens crumble, you will never be able to change the fact that I am your father. So whatever decision I make, you cannot go against it!”
Rachel laughed coldly. “Have you forgotten that the name Rachel Freeman was removed seven years ago?”
With those words, Henry’s expression stiffened. He had actually forgotten about that.
Rachel continued, “As long as I don’t acknowledge you, do you think you can still be my father?”
“You… you!”
“Since you have agreed to Mr. Hollands‘ proposal, then let your most beloved daughter marry him. After all, whoever becomes Mrs. Hollands will also become a wealthy lady.”
After speaking, she easily dodged Henry’s hand that swung in her direction. As he cursed loudly, she was already opening the door to leave.
But who knew, the moment the door opened, her arm was suddenly grabbed by Mrs. Freeman.
She was pushed straight into the arms of another man by her. “Mr. Hollands, see? I didn’t lie. Rachel is right here. You can have a nice conversation with her.”
Rachel clearly did not expect her stepmother to be waiting to ambush her at the door.
She tilted her face up and looked at the man with bandages on his head. He was the man Zane had injured that night.
“Let go of me!”
Jeremy smirked pervertedly. “Rachel, there are too many people watching us here. Let’s find another place to talk.”
Mrs. Freeman put her hands on Rachel’s shoulders as if in consolation. In reality, she was actually helping Jeremy push her away. “Rachel, there’s nothing that can’t be discussed amicably when two people sit down face–to–face. Finding a good partner for you is the greatest joy for your father and I. Go quickly.”
Rachel was forcibly dragged to the emergency exit corridor.
Seeing that there was no one else here, she immediately grabbed her bag and fiercely swung

it towards his face. Let but the yelled.
Jeremy was dizay from the blow, and yelled in fary. “Rachel, don’t act like this when I’m already trying to save you some dignity. Your father has already betrothed you to me, so I am Your man. Do you believe I will
Believe what?”
A sudden voice rang out, shocking Jeremy Rachel also did not expect to meet Zane here by

Why was he here?
Zane gave her a cold scan with his gaze. Standing in front of her, he looked down intimidatingly at Jeremy, growling. “Who did you just say you are the man of?”
“Mr. Jen… Mr. Jenkins. You have already divorced Rachel. So if she remarries, you shouldn’t have any say in it, right?”
“It seems that what happened that night hasn’t improved your memory.” With these words, Zane swung a fist, and Jeremy crashed into the wall. The intense pain was difficult to bear.
Jeremy even spat out two teeth. He looked at Zane who was approaching him with fear in his
eyes.
“Mr… Mr. Jenkins. I won’t do it again. I will leave now. I will leave.” Jeremy never expected that he would be taught a lesson twice by Zane both times for touching Rachel.
Obviously, Zane still had concern for Rachel.
Even if Jeremy still wanted to target Rachel, he would have to give up his own life to even think about it.
He escaped by rolling and crawling out.
As soon as Jeremy left, Zane grabbed Rachel’s arm without any hesitation and pressed her against the wall. “You are really in a hurry to get married, huh.”
“What’s wrong? You can find someone else, but I can’t get married again?”
“Does that mean I interrupted something good for you just now?” Zane asked through gritted
teeth.
Rachel broke free from his grip and said with a cold expression, “I didn’t beg you to come and save me.”
Seeing that she didn’t try to act amicable towards him at all, Zane felt an inexplicable
