Chapter 425
Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
Chapter 425
After Rachel and the others arrived at Seaxas, they had a meal together that night and returned home.
Before separating, Naomi held Rachelâs hand and said in a choked voice, âRae-Rae, thank you for
what you have done all these years.â
She knew that all these years, the favor that she and Linda owed Rachel could not be repaid with just a
word of thanks.
However, no matter how many words she had, the best way to express the gratitude in her heart was to
thank Rachel.
âMrs. Naomi, why are you saying this?â Rachel held Naomiâs wrinkled hand. Years of hard work had
made Naomiâs joints thicker, and her fingers were calloused. Unknowingly, time had left an indelible
mark on Naomiâs body..
Rachel sighed softly. âIf you hadnât appeared in time back then, I might not have survived.â
Back then, when they found out about Lindaâs encounter, they wanted to help Linda escape from that
disgusting home.
However, Xavier, who had lost the bet, suddenly returned. When he saw the few of them, a vicious and
evil thought arose in his heart.
In order to protect them, Linda surrendered to Xavier.
Finally, Rachel couldnât take it anymore. She picked up the metal rod beside her and smashed it hard
on Xavierâs head.
After that strike, Xavier lost consciousness and blood flowed out from the back of his head.
At that time, although Rachel was ruthless in fighting, she had never seen such a
scene.
She was not the only one who was panicking. Even Mary and Jessica were panicking.
Coincidentally, Naomi appeared at that moment.
Without any hesitation, she chased all of them out.
In the next twelve hours, Naomi took the initiative to walk into the police station and confess all the
crimes.
According to the police investigation, there were no traces at the scene other than Naomiâs fingerprints.
At that time, Rachel understood that Naomi was already prepared to die.
Whether it was out of guilt or sympathy, she asked Adrian for help and finally helped Naomi fight for the
lightest punishment.
Back then, she had spent a lot of effort to cover up this case. Not a single word was leaked. Other than
the necessary people involved in the case, no one else knew about it.
Now, because of Lily, Linda and Naomi had no choice but to face their sore spot.
Memory was the scariest thing in the world.
They could erase the traces of this case, but they could not erase everyoneâs memories.
Originally, Rachel had brought Linda and Naomi to Seaxas to make it easier for them to live a good life
in the future. Now, their peaceful life was destined to be criticized.
âLeave the rest to me. From now on, you and Linda can stay in Seaxas and live well.â
When Naomi heard this, a hint of gentleness appeared in her eyes. She looked at the residential
buildings that were brightly lit in the distance and said blandly, âWe have to live well.â
âItâs getting late. You guys should rest early.â
âBe careful on the road.â
Sandalwood Hills.
Rachel took a hot shower and walked out of the bathroom.
She slowly dried her hair and looked up at David, who was leaning against the headboard.
David was wearing loose home clothes. The collar was slightly open, revealing his Adamâs apple and
exquisite collarbone. He no longer had the coldness and abstinence from the day, and he looked so
dashing and raffish.
After drying her hair, she walked to the bed and said seriously, âItâs getting late.â
In other words, she was going to sleep. It was time for him to leave.
David raised his eyebrows slightly and reached out to pull her into his arms. He wrapped his arms
around her waist and turned over. Both of them sank into the soft bed. The moment the soft and fluffy
blanket landed on her body, Rachel heard his low and magnetic voice. âLetâs sleep together.â
