Chapter 1735 Since When Did He Become So Shameless?
Despite the sarcastic smile on Rachel's lips, a tinge of disappointment flickered in her eyes. A strange
mixture of emotions washed over her as she realized something she had never experienced before,
even after having known Vincent for a long time.
All this while, he's just putting on a façade. Beneath that, his true nature is cold and aloof!
He spoke calmly, "Rachel, I'm just stating the truth. It's never been my intention to bring you to court. If
that was the plan, do you think we would be talking about it now? Back when I wanted the necklace
more than anything else, I didn't even resort to doing that. What makes you think I would do it now?"
His voice cracked as sadness crept into his eyes.

Since I didn't take that action back then, it's even more impossible to do it now that I'm in love with her.
Rachel felt heartbroken looking at him. She averted her gaze, not wanting to meet his eyes.
Trying her best to suppress her feelings, she tried to maintain her distance from him.
"I don't mind if you stay or leave, but I have to let you know that I don't like you. I won't accept you, and
I will never give you the necklace – even if you bring me to court. From the perspective of the law and
morality, you don't have the inheritance rights to that."
With that, she turned around to leave. But it was out of the question for Vincent to allow that.
He grabbed her arm, but before he could say anything, she shook him off.
Not giving up, he blocked her directly.

Just as Rachel didn't know what to do, a low, threatening tenor voice rang. "Since when did the Shanes
become so shameless?"
Rachel and Vincent were distracted by the voice. When they saw who it was, they were stunned.
It was James Markee, Rachel's uncle.
It was entirely out of their expectations that he would defend her.
Since he was her family, Vincent immediately let go of her and explained, "I'm not being shameless.
We're just having an argument, and I would like to explain myself. I–"
"But I understood otherwise from the situation I've just witnessed – she clearly doesn't want to be
pestered by you, yet you kept going. Come here, Rachel," he interjected coolly, showing his complete
lack of interest in hearing Vincent out.
The fact that he suggested that Rachel come over to his side made it clear that he would take care of

the situation completely.
Not wanting to put Vincent on the spot, Rachel looked away and said, "Keep your emotions in check. I
hope we only talk business the next time we meet."
James shot Vincent a look before leaving together with Rachel.
Vincent finally gave up pursuing Rachel, only because of James' arrival.
"Get in the car." James' voice rang behind her.
A black sports car stopped in front of Rachel not long after leaving.
She thought through it quickly before following suit.
After settling down in the backseat of the car, she said, "Just speak your mind, Uncle James."
She was positive that he had something to tell her. Since she didn't enjoy a great relationship with her
family, she didn't want to waste time beating around the bush.
