Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David) novel Chapter 57

Betrayal At The Altar By Dolores Delia Chapter 57

The moment that sentence passed his lips, an eerie silence spread in the car.

Eddie Brook regretted what he said so much that he wanted to slap himself. Instead, he tentatively watched David Jones’s expressions, then carefully opened his mouth. “Miss Grey’s performance was very impressive tonight…”

But David’s frown only deepened. Eddie had to quickly think of something to quell David’s anger. So Eddie added, “Only a woman like that is worthy of you, sir.”

Sure enough, David’s gloomy expression disappeared instantly when he heard the second half of Eddie’s comment.

Having narrowly escaped danger, Eddie secretly gave Rachel an even more special place in his heart. Rachel Grey was almost like a savior to him now.

Eddie even started thinking about finding an auspicious place at home to worship Miss Grey for how she saved him.

“You did well tonight.” David’s deep voice was cold as usual.

Eddie paused briefly. He tried to reflect on what he had said that pleased David. Then, after some thought, Eddie’s only reasonable explanation was that Miss Grey was mentioned. Hesitantly, Eddie squeezed out a response. “We have nothing to do with the video…”

After hearing this, David’s lips curved into a mysterious smile. “That little girl has quite a few secrets…” he said indulgently.

It was already late at night when she returned to Johnson’s Mansion.

Carrying a bouquet of roses in her arms, Rachel returned to her room.

After a shower, Rachel dried her hair with a towel. That was when her phone on the table suddenly went off.

As soon as Rachel picked up the phone, a lazy voice spoke, “Someone is secretly investigating the Johnson Corporation’s CEO.”

“Are they better than you?” Rachel asked.

Rachel Grey smiled playfully. “If that is the case, then what are you worried about?”

Rachel’s retort immediately left Lucas speechless. Then, after a long pause, Lucas spoke again. “I was the one who took care of the problems you caused. Is this how you would repay the person who saved you?”
