Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David) novel Chapter 210

Betrayal At The Altar By Dolores Delia Chapter 210

Olivia stood at the door in a white dress.

Her pale face was covered in tears, and the marks of the two slaps from Rachel could be vaguely seen on her cheeks. They were abnormally red and swollen and were especially eye–catching.

She looked pitiful, like a flower that had been ravaged.

“Louis…” Her gentle voice was mixed with heartbroken hoarseness as she plunged into his arms with tears in her eyes.

Louis frowned and felt a sharp pain in his heart.

He reached out and pulled Olivia into his arms. He patted her trembling body gently and comforted her. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

Olivia’s mother, Bertha Cruise, did not want to disturb them, so she left quietly.

“Give it to me.” Bertha reached out to take the things and turned to walk into Richard Cruise’s study.

As soon as she entered, Bertha choked on the smoke lingering in the room and coughed repeatedly.

She placed the tea on the table and waved away the dirty air in front of her. Then, she walked to the balcony and opened the window.

“Why are you smoking so much for no reason? You don’t care about your health anymore.”

Richard took a deep puff of his cigarette and slowly exhaled white smoke from his mouth. “Louis is here?”

“He’s in Olivia’s room.” There was a hint of an ambiguous smile on Bertha’s face.

Richard frowned imperceptibly. He put out the cigarette in his hand and

threw it into the ashtray. He said in a deep voice, “Since he is willing to come, it means that he still cares about Olivia. As long as he cares, things won’t be too difficult.”

“What do you mean?”

Bertha was an actress in the opera troupe a few years ago. She only knew how to win a man’s heart, so she naturally did not understand these twists and turns in the business world.

She sized up the serious expression on Richard’s face. “Do you have other plans?
