Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David) novel Chapter 22

Betrayal At The Altar By Dolores Delia

Chapter 22

“Look at your silly look.” It sounded like Adrian was expressing his disgust for Rachel, but his gaze toward her was full of doting. As he spoke, he raised his hand to ruffle her soft hair.

“I’m not silly at all.” Rachel pushed Adrian’s hand on her head away and led him toward the sofa.

With his inquisitive gaze on Rachel and the man, Louis blurted out his question in a cold voice, “What is your relationship with him!”

Hearing Louis’s voice, Rachel stopped smiling and swept her cold gaze toward him before asking sternly, “Why haven’t you left yet?”

“Answer me! What is your relationship?” Louis, with his darkened expression, questioned again in a frosty voice as if he had caught his wife in adultery and wanted to figure out what was happening.

Rachel’s delicate face flashed with mockery, and with a snort, she answered, “Mr. Smith, who are you? Do you have the right to question me?”

“I…” Louis opened his mouth. He was about to refute Rachel’s words but found himself speechless even after racking his brain.

Rachel’s lips curved into a sarcastic smile, and she sneered, “Mr. Smith, please get out of here!”

Hearing the cold voice, Louis pursed his lips and left with Olivia’s hand in his after looking Adrian up and down.

However, he uncontrollably turned back and took a scrutinizing look at Rachel when he reached the door. There were mixed feelings in his dark and indiscernible eyes.

The moment Louis and Olivia stepped out of the ward, Rachel slammed the door of the ward with a bang.

Glancing at the closed door in front of her and Louis‘ sullen look, Olivia had a hint of coldness in her eyes. She then remarked lightly, “Rachel is really attracted to guys, unlike me. I have no male friends around except you.”

Seeing Louis’s cold face and his tightly pursed lips, Olivia decided to change the topic. “That man doesn’t look young. Have you seen him

before? Do you know who he is?”

Louis’s brows frowned slightly. With an inexplicable look in his eyes, he answered casually, “Maybe it’s her previous partner.”

“I see,” Olivia responded slowly and got lost in thought.

answered with a serious look, “You are the Johnson family’s apple of the eye. How can I get mad at you?”

It was known to everyone that the daughter of the richest family in Seaxas, the Johnson family, was adored by her family although no outsiders knew her exact name.

Old Mr. Johnson loved her so much that he would like to fulfill all her wishes. The two young masters of the Johnson family also treated her as their hearts.

Perhaps it was because Adrian was only 11 years older than Rachel, Rachel was more relaxed and reckless in front of Adrian than Tom.

She held and shook Adrian’s arm like a spoiled child before saying softly, “Well, Adrian, I know I was wrong. Please don’t get angry…”

“Rachel, you are not foolish. Why did you take the bull by the horns on marrying that man?” Adrian couldn’t help blaming Rachel at the thought of Louis’s philandering appearance. “Ask yourself. How could that scum of the Smith family be worthy of you? I have no idea how that guy enchanted you!”

Thinking that Rachel had cut off contact with the Johnson family for such scum, Adrian was filled with bitterness and pulled a long face.

He played with the glass in his hand. A trace of mixed emotions flashed in his dark eyes as he said casually, “It is thanks to you that the Smith Group succeeded in overcoming its crisis and is rising rapidly, right?“
