Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia

Chapter 680

The car door opened and David got out first, followed by Rachel.

However, David did not hold Rachel’s hand this time. Instead, he walked forward with one hand in his pocket.

Looking at his back as he left, Rachel knew that he was deliberately leaving enough space for her to have a talk

with Vulture.

Vulture glanced at David’s leaving figure and then walked to Rachel’s side. “You two quarreled?”

There was an unconcealable sense of gloating in his words.

Rachel raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at him with a faint smile. “You seem to be looking forward to it.”

“Do I?” Suddenly meeting Rachel’s gaze, Vulture looked down guiltily.

Rachel did not say anything. She just raised her head in the direction of the garden. “Let’s talk over there.”

“Why do we have to be so secretive? We can’t talk in front of your man?” Vulture lowered his head and toyed with

the lighter in his fingers.

However, Rachel did not seem to hear him. She took the lead and walked toward the garden.

Vulture snorted softly but followed obediently.

Blackhawk walked side by side with him. The two of them clearly sensed that although the surroundings looked

quiet, there were many people hiding in the corners.

The two of them looked at each other with meaningful smiles in their eyes.

They had long heard that the other branches of the Jones family were eyeing the main branch of the Jones family

covetously. Now, it seemed that the rumors outside were not groundless.

After they sat down one after another, Vulture ignored the surveillance around him and went straight to the point.

“Jones family’s interpersonal relationships are complicated. You should listen to my advice. Don’t get involved in this

mess.”

There were no selfish motives in his words. He only hoped that Rachel could stay out of trouble.

Rachel’s fair-skin fingers clasped the cup as she took a sip. “But I have a reason to get involved.”

Hearing this, Vulture could not help but fall silent.

He looked at Rachel with a focused and serious expression as if he was afraid of missing the subtle change in her

expression.

After a long time, his Adam’s apple bobbed. “Have you really decided? You’re not going to think about it twice

anymore?”

Rachel

put down the cup in her hand and said calmly, “I will never regret what I have decided.”

There was a hint of determination in her nonchalant tone.

In a daze, Vulture recalled the early morning when Rachel decided to leave.

They had thought that it was just a sudden impulse from the young girl and she would perhaps change her mind

after a nap.

However, when everyone woke up. the little girl only left a farewell letter.

There were only a few simple words summarizing the days they had spent together on the letter. After that, she

disappeared without a trace as if she had never appeared.

After an unknown period of time, Vulture suppressed the thousands of thoughts in his heart and chuckled. “Alright,

you’re the boss. Since you’ve decided, I won’t say anything else. But, let me remind you that the situation inside the

Jones family is far worse than you think. You’d better be fully prepared.”

“What’s there to be afraid of?” Blackhawk said. “Don’t underestimate our Twelve. If anyone has to be afraid, it will

never be her. At most, we’ll clear the way for her!”.

Although he said that in a joking tone, it could still show their unconditional support for Rachel. Rachel looked up at

the two people in front of her with a gentle smile.

After parting ways with Rachel, Vulture and Blackhawk returned to their respective guest rooms.

After washing up, the two of them leaned against the headboard and chatted with each other on their phones in

private. They discussed the car accident they encountered when they were with Rachel and the others at the T-

junction.

[Do you think this car accident was targeted at David or our Twelve?] With the current situation of the Jones family,

Blackhawk had to doubt what the motive of the mastermind behind the car accident was.

If it was to deal with David, shouldn’t they do it secretly?

Moreover, after so many years, there was no reason for them to be so eager to make a move to target David as

soon as David returned to Aureliana.

Vulture had a cigarette in the corner of his mouth. [Lone Wolf said that the Jones family’s power is complicated. No

matter who they are targeting, I bet that no one can get any benefits from the Jones family.]

Not to mention that David’s forces had developed unfathomably over the years.

Even Rachel alone was definitely not one who could be underestimated by those people.

When Blackhawk saw the message from Vulture, he could not help but feel emotional. He sent another message. [I

wonder what Twelve likes about David.]

At the mention of this, Vulture felt angry. He had doted on and protected Rachel for so many years. He wanted her

to be carefree all the time but David, the damn man made her get involved in such a

mess.

Just thinking about it made him angry!

He quickly typed on the screen with his fingertips indignantly. [David is a man full of tricks. Our Twelve is most likely

bewitched by his looks.]

With that, he threw the phone aside and got up to walk to the window,

He looked up at the crescent moon in the night sky and sighed deeply.

The next morning, Vulture and Blackhawk walked down the stairs and saw Rachel and David eating in the dining

room.

Seeing Rachel’s listless look, Vulture and Blackhawk looked at each other and silently chose to stay away from

Rachel.

They had some understanding of Rachel’s grumpy temper when she just got up.

If she got angry, she would really flip the table and make others at the table have no food.

After the two of them sat down, they quietly waited for Rachel to vent her anger on David. However, they realized

that Rachel was as obedient as a cat in front of David and seemed to have no intention. to vent her anger on him.

What the hell was going on?

Rachel changed her personality so quickly?

“Are you here to watch me?” Rachel looked up at the two of them.

It was a casual sentence, but it was filled with a cold aura.

Vulture and Blackhawk suddenly came back to their senses and quickly lowered their heads to eat silently.

Women were indeed good at pretending!

After eating, Rachel went upstairs to change her clothes.

In the dining room, David took a sip of black coffee. “Do you have other plans for this trip?”

“Does Mr. Jones have a favor to ask of us?” Vulture casually threw the piece of toast on the plate in front of him. He

leaned lazily against the seat and looked at David with a faint smile. “You need to pay a lot to hire us. I’m just afraid

that you can’t afford to hire us.”

David did not say anything. He just looked at Vulture indifferently.

The two men’s gazes met in the air, and a battle without smoke officially began.

A few seconds later. Vulture was defeated. He took a sip of milk to hide his embarrassment. “What is it?”

He suddenly felt lucky that they had been well-behaved all these years and did not become enemies with David.

Just his gaze alone was already so oppressive. If they really fought, who knew what kind of painful price they would

have to pay?

“If

you don’t mind, let’s go out for a walk later,” David said.

It seemed to be an invitation, but every word was filled with a sense of cominand.

Upon hearing this, Vulture’s eyes were filled with interest. “Where are we going?”

“The surrounding island.”
