Chapter 670
Rachel walked along the corridor, intending to head to the room where David had mentioned many treasures were hidden. However, she was unintentionally drawn to a painting hanging on the wall.
The painting depicted a beautiful manor, but its presence resembled a sky garden from a fairy tale story. The castle-like house was surrounded by countless blooming flowers.
The manor seemed to be coated in a faint layer of golden light under the setting sun, creating a mysterious and hazy atmosphere.
It wasn’t difficult to imagine that the actual place would be even more magnificent than the Peckham Palace.
As she stood there, she heard footsteps approaching from behind.
She turned and saw a group of people entering from the doorway.
David was leading the way, followed by Jimmy, Landon, and an unfamiliar woman.
“What are you looking at?” David approached, noticing the painting behind her. His brow furrowed imperceptibly as he asked. “Are you interested in this?”
Rachel slowly descended the staircase. “Just casually looking since I’m bored.”
Her gaze passed David as she sized up the two unfamiliar faces.
The unfamiliar woman seemed to be related to Landon. Their beautiful faces bore a striking similarity.
The bright eyes on the woman’s face, however, added a touch of charm.
Sensing Rachel’s scrutiny, the woman also unabashedly looked her over.
However, there was a barely perceptible trace of hostility in her eyes.
Rachel’s exceptionally eye-catching appearance undoubtedly made her the most conspicuous presence in any crowd.
Even the eldest daughter of the prestigious Clifford family, renowned for her unparalleled beauty in Aureliana, would likely pale in comparison to Rachel.
At that moment, David wrapped his arm around Rachel’s waist, and his deep, magnetic voice slowly rang out, “My fiancée, Rachel Grey.”
The woman’s eyes widened in disbelief, filled with astonishment and shock.
Without waiting for her to speak, David introduced the woman to Rachel, “This is Georgia Walker, Landon’s younger sister.”
Rachel nodded, then looked at the woman and greeted, “Hello.”
“Hello.” Georgia recovered from her shock, and forced a smile. “I heard you used to live in Seaxas, where the air is quite humid. Are you getting used to living here?”
Rachel sat down next to David and replied indifferently. “It’s alright”
Unlike Georgia’s extroverted personality, Rachel tended to warm up slowly.
This was especially so with strangers.
However, she had no choice but to patiently converse with Georgia since Georgia was Landon’s sister and David’s guest.
At this point, Georgia took out a cigarette from her pocket and was about to light it when Landon snat ched it away from her.
Seeing his exaggerated reaction, Georgia looked at him, puzzled. “What’s the big deal? You startled me.”
“Mind your manners,” Landon said.
Georgia blinked and then chuckled. “I smoked quite a bit when we were together before. Why can’t I smoke now?
“Oops, I forgot to ask Miss Grey’s opinion.” Georgia suddenly seemed to remember Rachel. “We’ll have many more opportunities to meet in the future. You wouldn’t mind, would you, Miss Grey?”

Its ridiculouse to think it is normal to love bomb someone for couple of days and then they are in love. They dont know each other at all. So annoying to read. And whats more, to kiss by force is romantic?? How the hell is that romantic?? Cant understand its logic....
