Betrayal At The Altar

Chapter 819

Rachel could not help but recall what Noah had said earlier. “Do you know why David changed the venue of the summit to Titia? It’s because David wanted to delay as much as possible for that woman to discover your existence.”

At that time, Noah didn’t specify who the woman was, but Rachel guessed that Noah should have been referring to Mrs. Olson.

“The reason why David refused to let me return to Seaxas was because of Mrs. Olson?” Rachel thought to herself.

Many wild guesses popped up in Rachel’s mind.

“What are you thinking about?” Aileen walked up to Rachel and asked. Aileen looked at the expression on Rachel’s face and a hint of worry flashed in her eyes. “What happened?” Aileen asked concernedly.

Rachel came back to her senses and shook her head gently. “Let’s go. take you to see Lone Wolf.”

“Okay,” Aileen replied.

I’ll

The group walked into the hospital building and took the elevator to the ward where Lone Wolf was.

After receiving treatment and a period of recuperation, Lone Wolf’s overall recovery was not bad. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

The few of them gathered together and chatted. Vulture suggested that they go out for a gathering tonight. The other two people agreed and immediately took out their phones to search if there were any fun places. nearby that they could go.

After choosing the location, they set off together.

Aileen noticed that Rachel kept glancing at her phone and looked absent-minded. Her lips curled upwards into a playful smile and Aileen gave Rachel’s shoulder a playful bump.

“Hey, are you thinking about someone? A man?” Aileen asked playfully.

Rachel came back to her senses and turned to look at Aileen. “Can’t I?” Rachel asked.

“You can,” Aileen said, “You are Twelve, there’s nothing you can’t do!”

However, Aileen could not help but sigh in her heart. “Time really passed. quickly.

“In the blink of an eye, Twelve already had a man.

“As for me…” Aileen thought to herself as her gaze swept across Vulture casually.

Then, Aileen lowered her eyes to hide the emotions in her eyes.

After returning to Seaxas, Rachel only had one thought in her mind, and that was to meet David.

Rachel wanted to see how David’s wound was recovering. Rachel also wanted to see if David had lost weight, and did he rest well recently.

However, Aileen had come from afar. Logically speaking, Rachel felt that she shouldn’t have abandoned Aileen and left without asking her.

Therefore, Rachel could only suppress the strong urge to meet David.

Although Chris might have already told David that Rachel had returned, Rachel was even planning to head to Stellar Corporation in secret later after dinner and give David a huge surprise.

With a turbulent of emotions, Rachel walked to the parking lot. At this moment. Chris, who was following behind Rachel, quickly walked forward and whispered in her ear, “Miss Grey, Mr. Jones is waiting for you in Area B.”

Upon hearing this, Rachel’s face immediately lit up. With a face of joy, Rachel asked, “David’s here?”

Seeing Rachel’s smile, a smile tugged at Chris’s mouth. With a faint smile. on his face, Chris replied, “Mr. Jones was already here since 10 minutes. ago.”

In other words, David had been waiting for her in the parking lot after learning that Rachel had returned.

David gave Rachel plenty of time and personal space for Rachel to catch up with her friends.

Vulture, who was walking in front, had been silently watching Rachel from the corner of his eyes. Vulture did not know what Chris and Rachel were whispering about. However, when Vulture saw the bright and moving smile on Rachel’s face, he did not need to make any guesses as

he knew that it was most likely related to David.

Ever since Rachel came back, she had been depressed and

absent-minded. In just a short while, Rachel was already beaming with joy. “Rachel’s so fucking useless!”

After the thought flashed across Vulture’s mind, he subconsciously let out

a cold snort.

Aileen noticed the change in Vulture’s expression but she acted as if nothing had happened. However, there was a bitter taste in her mouth.

Aileen took a deep breath and suppressed the bitterness that she was feeling. With a faint smile on her face, Aileen asked Vulture, “Why didn’t you tell Twelve anything?”

Vulture held his breath and looked into the distance. There was a hint of disappointment in his eyes when Vulture replied. “Some things are better kept to themselves than to be said out loud.”

Even if Rachel was not with David. Vulture might not have said what was on his mind.

Vulture knew very well that Rachel had only treated them as her friends.

Once some things were said, it would only push Rachel further and further away from them.

Aileen stared at Vulture unblinkingly and asked, “Are you willing to accept this?”

“I can’t accept it,” Vulture said frankly. “I can’t accept that I’m only friends. with her, but I’m more afraid that I have nothing to do with her.”

If it was in the past, Vulture would have confessed to Rachel on impulse. However, perhaps because he was older now, Vulture had more concerns and did not dare to say a single word.

This was because Vulture knew that Rachel would reject him without hesitation. Vulture was also worried that he would not even be able to be friends with Rachel after that. Instead of that happening, Vulture would rather stay by Rachel’s side as a friend.

Upon hearing this, Aileen raised her head and looked at him with an ambiguous gaze. With a mocking smile, Aileen said, “You sure are thoughtful! Coward!”

With that, Aileen left Vulture behind and walked forward quickly.

Vulture was speechless.

“Did I say something wrong just now?

“I didn’t? Did I?” Vulture pondered.

Looking at Lone Wolf in confusion, Vulture asked, “What’s wrong with Aileen?”

“If you’re curious, you should go and ask her yourself,” Lone Wolf replied.

“Do you think I’m stupid? If I ask now, I’ll be risking my life!” Vulture. exclaimed.

“You’ve certainly improved.” Lone Wolf remarked.

Upon hearing Lone Wolf’s words, Vulture could not help but reveal a smug smile on his face. However, Vulture only looked smug for a few seconds before he heard Lone Wolf say, “Unfortunately, you’ve only improved by a little bit.”

Vulture fell silent.

“Lone Wolf’s really getting better at scolding people.” Vulture thought to himself.

Just when Vulture was lost in his thoughts, Rachel walked over and said, “You guys can go in first. I’ll go out for a while.”

As soon as Rachel had finished speaking, she had already turned around and was heading directly for Area B in the parking lot.

Looking at Rachel’s hurried footsteps, Vulture couldn’t help but pout and complained, “Look at how impatient Rachel is! Rachel doesn’t have the reservedness that a woman should possess at all!”

Lone Wolf smiled faintly and said nothing.

On the other side, Rachel walked into Area B of the parking lot and immediately saw the black Rolls- Royce.

The car was parked at the side, just like a ferocious beast that was pretending to be asleep. Even though the car was silently still, it still exuded a terrifying aura.

When the people in the car saw Rachel, the door of the car slowly opened,

The man’s tall figure came into view.

David was wearing his usual black shirt and a pair of black suit pants. There was an innate cold and elegant aura that was surrounding David.

Regardless of the location and timing, Rachel still felt a sense of desire. and her heartbeat quickens when she is facing David.

It was just like the first time when they had met when Rachel had been amazed and stunned by David.

Rachel took a deep breath. Just as Rachel was gathering her emotions. and thinking about what to say to David, the man in front of her had already walked forward and pulled her into his arms. David’s arms wrapped around Rachel in a tight embrace.

The familiar cold wooden fragrance filled Rachel’s nose, bringing an indescribable sense of comfort and a sense of security.

Rachel reached out and wrapped her arms around the man’s waist while taking in David’s scent greedily. Closing her eyes, the corners of Rachel’s mouth curled up subconsciously and she revealed an expression of satisfaction.
