Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
Chapter 608
Seeing that David did not take the bouquet for a long time, Rachel had a fleeting nervousness flash
across her eyes. Rachel held the bouquet tightly with both hands and asked carefully. âYou donât like
it?â
David suddenly came back to his senses. Seeing the womanâs nervous expression, David hurriedly
took the bouquet. âI like it.â
As if David felt that his words were not sincere enough, he added, âI like it very much.â
Hearing this, Rachel secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
This was the first time Rachel had prepared a surprise for a man in her life.
Rachel had always been worried that David would not like it.
But how could David not like it?
In the past, David had never understood why women liked surprises, nor did he understand why a
simple bouquet of flowers could make women happy for an entire day.
But today, David seemed to understand.
Surprises and flowers were just a part of the happiness. What really made women happy was the care
that the person they loved was willing to spend on them.
Women had never been happy about how valuable this gift was. Instead, they were happy about the
sincerity and care that people had put into the gift, the time and effort to prepare the gift.
They were happy that the surprise and flowers came from the person they loved, and it was unique and
exclusive to them.
David stared at Rachel without blinking. Davidâs dark eyes revealed a soul-stirring dark light.
The blush on Rachelâs face gradually spread to her ears. Her earlobes were faintly itchy, and her heart
could not help but beat faster. âCan you not look at me like that..â
Rachel kept feeling that the scorching heat was filled with fatal danger. It was like a ferocious beast
staring at its prey as if the beast was about to swallow her at any moment.
David took a step forward and held Rachelâs hand. Davidâs eyes were filled with a warm smile. âIâm
thinking about what other surprise gifts are waiting for me.â
The moment their skin touched, Rachel could clearly feel the warmth of the manâs palm. Rachel
panicked for no reason.
Rachel took a deep breath, her chest moving up and down.
David stared at Rachel, his dark eyes darkening,
David could not help but tighten his grip on the woman.
âLetâs eat first,â Rachel said.
David nodded. âWhatever you say.â
The dancing fire on the candle and the dim light created an indescribably ambiguous atmosphere.
David looked at Rachel, who was sitting opposite him. The indescribable secret addiction in his eyes
was stirring.
The flickering candlelight outlined Rachelâs face which was as flawless as cold jade. Rachelâs
extremely beautiful contour was half-lit and half-dark. Rachelâs exquisite facial features. were like a
work of art.
Rachelâs eyebrows were arched at the right angle. Any higher and she would be flirting. Event so, at
first glance, it looked like Rachel was secretly flirting. It did not conflict with the coldness Rachel
exuded. She looked like a demon and a fairy at the same time.
Admiring a beauty under the candlelight was a different experience.
It was indeed right.
Rachel raised her glass and looked at David with a smile. âIn the end, I sincerely wish you a happy
birthday.â
âThen, can i make a wish now?â David raised his eyebrows. His thin lips curled into a faint smile that
looked a little devilish.
âLetâs have dinner first.â Rachel lowered her eyes to hide the emotions in them.
However, Rachelâs hand holding the goblet trembled slightly, revealing the nervousness in her heart.
David didnât say anything and finished the wine in the glass in one gulp.
David stared deeply at Rachel with his black eyes. Davidâs gaze was like a predator staring at a prey
that had stepped into his encirclement.
âItâs been a long time since Iâve made Wetanean food. Try it and see how it tastes,â Rachel
said.
Only then did David turn his attention to the dish in front of him. He looked at the exquisite plate and
asked, âYou cooked it yourself?â
Rachel nodded. âI just donât know if it suits your taste.â
Under Rachelâs gaze, David tasted the warm salad of foie gras in front of him.
The manâs every move exuded a natural aura of nobility. Even if one gave just a casual glance, one
would give David all his attention and would not be able to look away.
Davidâs well-defined face was handsome and indifferent. When the candlelight landed on his face, it
was as if his face was coated with a layer of faint golden light. David was like an angel instead of a
man.
Even though Rachel often faced such a face, every time she focused on admiring it, she would be
stunned.
Looking at the man chewing slowly, Rachel curled her fingers nervously. A hint of nervousness could
not help but appear in Rachelâs eyes. âDoes it taste good?â
âVery good,â David praised generously.
Of course, the best praise was to finish all the food on the plate.
As expected, the smile in Rachelâs eyes deepened when she saw that David had finished the food.
Rachel rested her chin on one hand and looked at David. âDo you know why I gave you the
bellflowers?â
David shook his head with a gentle expression and patiently listened to Rachelâs explanation.
âThe florist at the flower shop told me that the bellflower is also called the thornless rose. Its flower
language is âI will only give you unchanging love. I am very wary of this world, but in front of you, I am
willing to let go of all my defenses and hug you.â
âActually, I know that these flower languages are just given to them by people for marketing. But in the
face of such special flower languages, I canât help but want to buy them for you. Thank you for letting
me meet you in my life, and thank you for being tolerant of me.â
Initially, Rachel thought that being abandoned on her wedding day was the most. embarrassing state
she would ever be in her life. However, David appeared in Rachelâs life at Rachelâs most embarrassing
moment and gave that day a new meaning.
âIsnât it my fortune to have met you in my life? David asked.
Rachelâs face was filled with a bright and moving smile. Under the candlelight, her face looked even
more beautiful.
After eating, Rachel held Davidâs hand and walked to the stairs.
The entire staircase was paved with rose petals, and different gifts were placed in the corresponding
positions.
Each gift was decorated with a different number of balloons.
âThese are different gifts I prepared for you at different ages.â Rachel held Davidâs hand and explained,
âEveryone has their own past. I regret not meeting you when I was young. I want to say that I canât
participate in your past, but I will accompany you to the end of your future!
âOf course, the reason why I did this is to make up for not participating in your past. I hope to leave
more of me in your memories.â
Seeing that David did not speak, Rachel lowered her eyes to hide the emotions in her eyes. Rachel
mocked herself, âDo you think Iâm too greedy?â
Everyone could listen to reasons. But when it came to themselves, no matter how smart they were,
they would become unreasonable.
Rachel felt that what she said just now was really s*upid.
Just as Rachel was secretly vexed, a black shadow fell in front of her.
David raised Rachelâs chin and stared at her with his black eyes.
