Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David) novel Chapter 768

Chapter 768 

The banquet lasted until ten o’clock at night. 

After it ended, Rachel left with David. 

Brendan watched the two of them leave and gave Jimmy a look. A playful smile appeared on his lips. “What’s going on? Is he serious?” 

“When did you ever see David not serious?” Jimmy raised his eyebrows slightly. The perfect arc revealed a hint of flirtatiousness, making the mole under his eye look even more evil and charming. “He’s already proposed to her.” 

Hearing this, Brendan was rather surprised. “It’s indeed unexpected.” 

There had been many rumors between the Jones family and the Clifford family, especially in recent years. The rumor that Jennifer was the future wife of David appointed by Old Mr. Jones had been spread crazily and it was hard for others not to believe it. 

At that time, David did not have any explanation. Brendan thought that it was David’s tacit agreement to the marriage. 

Unexpectedly, he proposed to another woman in the blink of an eye. 

“There will be many unexpected things in the future.” Jimmy patted Brendan’s shoulder. “Do you want to go to the bar?” 

Brendan raised his chin. “Let’s go!” 

Rachel originally planned to go back to Sandalwood Hills with David, but halfway through, she received a call from Lucas. “Will you return to the Johnson family tonight?” 

“What’s wrong?” Rachel instinctively had a bad premonition. 

On the other end of the line, Lucas lit a cigarette and took a puff. He said unhurriedly, “I don’t know who in the family spilled the beans about my father. When Grandpa found out, he suddenly fainted and is already asleep. Do you want to come back and take a look?” 

Hearing this, Rachel did not hesitate at all. “Okay!”

After hanging up, she looked at David. 

Before she could speak, the man had already signaled Billy to drive. toward the Johnson’s Mansion. 

When the car drove all the way to Johnson’s Mansion, Rachel leaned forward and planted a gentle kiss on David’s lips. 

She wanted to stop the kiss immediately after her lips touched his lips, but before she could do that, David suddenly grabbed the back of her neck and wrapped his other hand tightly around her slender waist. 

The two of them kissed deeper and deeper. An ambiguous and passionate atmosphere spread between the two of them, gradually filling the small car. 

When Rachel’s tongue went numb and the feeling of suffocation became stronger, David reluctantly let go of her. 

His dark eyes became darker and darker as if a small flame had been lit in the depths of his eyes, reflecting the dark desire and greed in them. “Go back and have a good night.” 

His deep voice was tinged with sensual hoarseness that was exceptionally bewitching. 

Rachel’s eyelashes fluttered slightly. “You too.” 

David’s arm was still wrapped around her waist. His warm palm caressed her waist. He buried his head in her neck and took a deep breath before kissing her cheek. “I’ll pick you up tomorrow?” 

“There’s no need…” David’s face was still buried in her neck. His breath was slightly warm as it brushed past her neck, making her tremble. “I’ll go to the company myself tomorrow morning.” 

“Okay.” 

“I’ll get going first.” 

David looked at Rachel’s back as she left. His eyes were filled with greed and reluctance. 

When the woman’s figure disappeared from his sight, he slowly rolled up the car window. His expression returned to its usual coldness and

indifference. “Find a way to get the evidence out of Alfredo’s mouth that Yandel was involved in setting Tom up.” 

“Okay!” Eddie replied. 

He glanced at the man sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror. After thinking for a while, he said word by word, “Sir, Yandel’s ultimate goal in attacking Tom this time may be Miss Grey. Perhaps… Mr. Noah is also behind this. Are we going to expose him, too?” 

“No need.” David crossed his legs and placed his hands naturally on his knees. “The Johnson family is not a family that can be easily bullied in Seaxas.” 

Now, the existence of the second branch of the Jones family was more used to restrict the other branches. 

Even without Noah, there would be others who would reach into Seaxas. 

“Spread the word to the other branches.” 

“Okay.” 

At Grand Central Law Firm, Adrian leaned against the side of the table. with a cup of coffee in his hand. 

He looked at the colorful neon lights outside the window in a daze. His eyes under the glasses were deep. No one knew what he was thinking. 

At this moment, his phone suddenly rang. It was a phone call made by Rachel. 

He swiped the screen to answer the call and asked, “What’s it?” 

“Nothing much. I just wanted to tell you that Uncle Tom is out. You don’t need to worry about him.” Rachel’s voice entered Adrian’s ears through the phone. 

Adrian responded, “Got it.” 

After hanging up, he held his phone and pondered for a long time. He silently prepared the words that he was going to say in his heart and mustered his courage to call Jessica. 

However, it was not Jessica’s voice that came from the phone. Instead, it

was a mechanical and cold voice broadcast. “Sorry! The subscriber you have dialed is temporarily unavailable…” 

Adrian’s face suddenly darkened. He threw his phone on the table angrily. 

Ever since the two of them parted on bad terms in the office last time, they had started a cold war. 

In the old cold wars they had before, Jessica would always find topics or other opportunities to ease the tension. 

But this time, she did nothing.
