Chapter 672
Yann and the others were investigating this matter and were currently screening the leads one by one.
Rachel’s gaze flickered slightly as she said, “I casually asked a friend.”
David lifted his eyebrows slightly when he heard her explanation. His thin lips curled into a faint smile as he said meaningfully, “You really are impressing me more and more.”
David caressed Rachel’s earlobes with his fingers, rubbing them lightly with his rough fingertips. His deep and magnetic voice slowly drifted into Rachel’s ears. “You’ve done me such a large favor. How can I repay you?”
Rachel’s body could not help but tense up when she felt the man’s long and flexible fingers caress her sensitive ears. She replied, “I don’t need repayment for small favors like that.”
“There’s a saying in Aureliana that says to repay small favors with many times the gratitude.”
“If you really want to thank me, then please protect me well.” Rachel pushed David’s hand away and said, sounding unhappy. “After all, I am new here and I am not familiar with the people and places of Aureliana. It’s not as peaceful here as in Seaxas either.”
She was deliberately teasing David with the words Georgia said earlier.
Rachel didn’t consider herself a magnanimous person. She was very petty and had a strong sense of
revenge.
Moreover, she could also sense Georgia’s hostility toward her from her words.
Since that was the case, she didn’t need to pretend to be a respectable and magnanimous woman.
David looked at her with a doting and indulgent gaze. “Why care about what a stranger said?”
He pulled up her chin with his fingertips and leaned down to place a gentle kiss on her lips.
“Stranger?” Rachel looked at him with a fake smile.
“There are only two types of women in my eyes. David stood up, circled the rattan chair, and stopped in front of Rachel. He continued, “The first is Rachel Grey, and the other is a total stranger.”
“Were you always so wise?”
“Every man has to go through a lesson in masculine virtue.”
Rachel smiled when she heard those words.
David held her hand. “There’s a party tonight. Shall we go together?”
Rachel looked at their entwined fingers. She did not respond to David’s question.
She knew that she would have to meet David’s family and friends before she came.
However, both Thomas Bowes and Georgia Walker had made it clear that they were testing and probing her.
Georgia even had an added hostility that Thomas didn’t have.
-She probably felt that Rachel wasn’t good enough for David.
Seeing that Rachel remained silent, David looked up and asked, “Don’t you want to go?”
“I do,” Rachel replied with a faint smile. “After all, they’re your friends.”
If they weren’t David’s friends, Rachel wouldn’t have cared about them.
In the evening, six Rolls-Royces and two limited-edition sports cars drove out of the Peckham Palace.

The readers' comments on the novel: Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
would love to see an actual end to this story. for now it's just hanging in limbo...
Please update the chapters and complete the novel...
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....
New chapter kb aia ga...
