Chapter 820
Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
âWhat were you thinking?â asked David, his deep voice echoing into Rachelâs ears through the
vibrations in his cliest.
It was like a rhythmic drumbeat landed in her ears, and her heart could not help but ripple.
She raised her head slowly and met his eyes. âI was thinking youâre someone Iâd fall in love with even if
I met you ten thousand times.â
Some words were brewing in her mind, but she did not know how to speak. But the moment she said it,
she realized it wasnât that hard.
Upon hearing her words, Davidâs heart felt like it was being squeezed by something Subsequently, his
heart started beating uncontrollably, and the blood all over his body seemed to boil at once.
His arms tightened around Rachelâs waist, and he wanted to squeeze her into his body.
Rachel struggled a little, worried that he might pull his wound. âHowâs your wound?â she asked.
Davidâs fingertips gently rubbed the corners of her eyes. His black eyes became deeper and deeper,
and uncontrollable emotions surged in the depths of his pupils..
He leaned down slightly and planted a soft kiss on her lips. âTll show you tonightâ
Rachel looked puzzled.
She didnât know if she thought wrong but felt it wouldnât be as simple as only seeing his wound at night.
The two embraced together. The doting and indulgent look in the manâs eyes was hard to ignore.
Watching them silently from afar. Aileen was dun ounded and looked like she had seen a ghost.
She still remembered the first time she saw David at a banquet.
Wearing a well-tailored black suit, David stepped down a winding staircase slowly and casually.
The bright light shone on his well-defined face, making his exquisite facial features look more profound
and three-dimensional.
He exuded a noble and indifferent aura that seemed to overflow from the depths of his bones. His
terrifying aura was the most eye-catching existence present.
Even though he only stood there without saying anything, his strong presence was enough to awe
everyone.
But the man before her was domineering and gentle now, and his eyes were full of love and
indulgence. Except for his handsome face, Aileen found it hard to believe he was the same man.
Back then. David was cold, heartless, and mighty, like an immortal without emotions and desires. He
was sacred and inviolable.
At that time, Aileen realized that such a man would never stop for a woman, let alone fall in love with
any woman.
However, when Aileen saw how David doted on Rachel, she suddenly realized what made the world
wonderful was that it was full of surprises that she didnât expect.
Aileen suddenly understood why people were so happy to see the Flower of the High Ridge being
pulled down from the
altar.
Vulture had no idea why Aileen was so angry suddenly. He caught up with her and wanted to find out
what was going on with her. However, he happened to see her staring at David infatuatedly. He couldnât
help but roll his eyes and said faintly. âSo you like this type of man.â
Aileen snapped back to her senses. She turned her head and coincidentally met Vultureâs handsome
face. She was startled, and her face blushed unnaturally. âWho said I like this type?â
âThen what type of man do you like?â Vulture asked.
âOf course, itâsâ¦â Aileen answered without hesitation. However, she snapped back to her senses a
second before her answer blurted out of her mouth. âNone of your business!â she said with anger and
shame.
Vulture was speechless by her remark.
Did he say something wrong again?
At this point, Rachel pulled herself away from Davidâs arms. She followed his gaze and saw Aileen
waving at her from a distance.
Rachel introduced her to David generously, âAileen Dickinson, Miss Dickinson from Skysgate Group. I
usually like to call
her Nine.â
âNine?â David raised his eyebrows slightly. He already had some guesses in his mind. He leaned over
and whispered in
Rachelâs car. A member of the Red Flame Action Tram!â
Rachel noted
Aileen walked forward and realized that the gentleness and love in the manâs eyes in the previous
second had disappeared All that was left was an indifferent and cold expression, just like the face that
had left a deep impression on her back then.
It turned out that the man had not changed at all
No More spec the ally, he was only stingy and did not want to show emotions to anyone other than
Rachel.
Aileen took a deep breath and adjusted her emotions. âHello, Mr. Jones, she greeted hum graciously
David glanced at her undifferently and frowned slightly Miss Dickinson, are you from the Skysgate
Group!â
Aileen nodded and said. âMy tather is Edrick Dickinsonâ
âYouâre the elder sister?â David asked.
Aileen was stunned before she nodded. âYes. My father is on vacation with my younger sisterâ
âWell Give him my regards.â
âOkayâ
The short conversation made Aileen feel even more pressured
David deserved to be the youngest head of the Jones family, indeed. The terrifying aura on his body
was not something ordinary people could withstand.
They got into the cars after a while
Rachel naturally wouldnât ride with them in the same car.
Looking at Rachel being carefully cared for by David, Aileen suddenly felt a surge of envy
Any woman fantasized about being unique and irreplaceable to a man.
It was just that she didnât seem to be that lucky
Aileen gradually retracted her gaze and fell on Vulture. The blockhead probably never knew what she
was thinking in her lifetime
The cars drove all the way and finally arrived at Best Fry
They sat in the ancient-looking private room. Vulture, Lone Wolf, and Aileen huddled together and
quickly flipped through the menu to look for the most expensive dishes. They secretly planned to extort
David.
Their thoughts were clearly shown on their faces, but David ignored them.
He and Rachel sat on the vintage couch in front of the window He picked up the coffee pot, poured a
cup of coffee, and handed it to Rachel. âDid you suffer any losses when fighting Noah??â
Rachel supported her chin with one hand and looked at him. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the
golden sunlight shone on the manâs body, coating him with a layer of golden light and softening the cold
and indifferent aura on his body.
âIâm your fiancée after all. How can I embarrass you?â Rachel said, âBesides, you were the one who
especially sent him to me to practice. How can I disappoint you?â
The change in the venue of the industry summit was not only due to Noalâs covert operation but also
because David was taking advantage of the situation.
Noah was able to appear in front of her because of David.
Back then, when her uncle was framed and imprisoned, Noah was one of the masterminds behind the
scenes.
With new and old grudges added together, she naturally would not show mercy to Noah.
Even though Noah was Davidâs uncle, she would still not be polite to him.
Of course, David had sent Noah to her because she could do whatever she wanted to him without
any worries
