Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia

Chapter 805

The face-to-face hug came too suddenly, catching Rachel off guard.

A familiar scent engulfed Rachel’s nose, and her heart could not help but ripple..

Rachel’s fingertips curled up slightly, and her hands by her sides silently clenched into fists.

After a moment of silence, David’s low and cold voice slowly sounded in Rachel’s ear. “Im sorry…”

David’s voice was very soft, but it made Rachel’s heart feel as if it had been pulled by something. Rachel could not

even

breathe.

This was David’s second apology today, but Rachel could sense that it was even more humble than the previous

one.

David’s background determined his high and mighty status. Whether it was his words or actions, he had always

carried the aura of giving orders. However, in front of Rachel, David lowered his arrogant head again and again.

The man’s face was buried in her neck, and his breath was slightly hot. It brushed past Rachel’s neck, causing a

certain string in her body to subconsciously tense up.

Rachel did not say anything. She just let David hug her.

“I can’t tell you that I’m injured. I don’t know if it’s because I don’t want you to worry, or because I don’t want you

to be distracted” David’s lips landed on her temple and kissed it lightly. It’s not peaceful in Seaxas. I’m worried that

I’ll drag you into unnecessary trouble. I apologize to you solemnly here and promise that no matter what happens

in the future. I won’t hide it from you.

“I’ll tell you what you want to know, and I’ll tell you what you don’t want to know. I really know my mistake. Rac-

Rae, don’t be angry, okay?”

When David’s deep voice softened, it sounded more coaxing, causing ripples in Rachel Grey.

“Rae-Rae, can you forgive me?”

The word “Rae-Rae seemed to have been brewing in David’s throat for a long time. It circled around David’s lips

and teeth as he muttered softly. His voice was fragrant, natural, and pleasant.

David’s pleas were to ask for her forgiveness, to compromise, and to accommodate her.

In an instant, a strange emotion surged from the bottom of Rachel’s heart, making her choke.

Rachel’s silence really confused David. An unknown uneasiness quietly arose.

David could only tighten his arms around Rachel’s waist. The deepening hug made them stick close to each other.

Rachel felt a wave of dampness on her chest.

Rachel frowned slightly. As she breathed, she could faintly smell the smell of blood, which was getting stronger and

stronger

Rachel’s expression suddenly changed. She retreated from David’s embrace, inserted the room card into the

switch slot, and turned on the light in the room.

The sudden light made Rachel’s eyes, which had adapted to the darkness, feel sore and swollen. She

subconsciously narrowed her eyes but tried her best to focus her gaze on David.

Rachel saw David’s black shirt stained with blood. Her pupils constricted, and she lowered her eyes to look at the

clothes on her body. Bright red blood was printed on her silk shirt.

A layer of coldness appeared in Rachel’s eyes. She quickly stepped forward and pulled open David’s shirt.

The white bandage was already soaked in blood.

The corners of Rachel’s eyes immediately turned red. She pursed her red lips and looked at David without saying a

word. When David saw Rachel’s worried looks, his tense jawline eased a little. He placed one hand on her waist and

cupped her check with the other. “You’re not angry anymore?”

Rachel shook her head and raised her hand to hold his. Her cold voice was choked with sobs. “If I continue to be

angry. would you think that I’m too pretentious and not reasonable at all?*

“Why would I?” The corners of David’s lips curled up slightly into a faint smile. His thumb gently rubbed the skin on

her cheek as he stared at her without blinking. His eyes were filled with infatuation even he himself didn’t know.

“With me, no matter what you do, it’s right.”

David’s casual words revealed his unconcealable love for Rachel

The sudden words of love made Rachel unable to suppress the trace of joy in her heart for a moment.

Rachel pursed her lips, but she could not suppress the smile on her face.

Chapter 805

Rachel pulled off David’s hand and carefully unbuttoned all the buttons of his shirt. When she saw the gauze that

was gradually soaked with blood, her thin brows furrowed uncontrollably. “Does it hurt?”

“It doesn’t hurt.” David looked at Rachel and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. David pinched her soft

earlobe gently.

Sensing the man’s fingers gently rubbing behind her sensitive ear, Rachel slapped his hand away angrily.

“Nonsense, how can

it not hurt!”

David’s heart and lungs were injured. Naturally, he needed a lot of time to recover.

Rachel took David’s hand and walked toward the room.

Rachel pushed David to sit on the sofa, then took off his shirt with both hands. She was very careful throughout,

afraid that she would tear his wound. “Where are Eddie and Billy?”

David looked at Rachel and seemed to be thinking about how to answer.

Sering David’s hesitation, Rachel chuckled. “In your current situation, they won’t let you out alone.”

“Sometimes, you’re really too smart David sighed helplessly, but his eyes were filled with indulgence and love.

Rachel pouted “Where are they?”

Rachel guessed that since they had followed David here, they must have prepared a first aid kit.

The first aid kit provided by the hotel was not enough to treat the wounds on David.

“They are next door.”

Hearing this, Rachel turned around and walked toward the door.

Rachel had just taken a step when David suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled hard.

The sudden pull made Rachel lose her balance and fall forward. In order to avoid hitting David’s chest, Rachel

quickly placed her arm on the back of the sofa.

Rachel was still in shock and had yet to regain her senses when the man’s palm grabbed the back of her head, and

he raised his head to kiss her red lips.

The moment their lips touched, the longing and secret addiction that Rachel had suppressed in her heart seemed

to have found a breakthrough and all of them ran out.

The woman lowered her head and half-knelt on the sofa. The man sat in front of her, and his hand was holding her

slender waist. The ambiguous and hot aura gradually spread to every corner of the room.

The man’s palm went under the hem of her shirt. The moment when the heat of his palm landed on her skin,

Rachel suddenly came back to her senses.

Rachel gently pushed his chest with her hands, forcefully interrupting this ambiguous scene.

“Ill go look for Eddie and Billy.”

With that, Rachel turned around and left.

David sat on the sofa and leaned against the backrest. He sighed deeply and vaguely felt something hard on the

side of his leg.

David frowned slightly and reached out to touch the side of his leg

David held a box the size of a ring box in his hand.

David pursed his thin lips and opened the box. When he saw the pills inside, his eyes couldn’t help but darken.

As early as when Rachel fainted and was hospitalized, David had already guessed that Rachel had an unspeakable

illness. However, David did not ask further and did not let anyone investigate in private.

If Rachel wanted to, she would naturally tell him.
