Betrayal At The Altar

The pair were sitting on rattan chairs when Rachel’s phone suddenly rang. When she saw the message from David, her lips curled into a smile.

Lucas looked at the smile on her lips and was slightly dazed.

He still remembered how Rachel looked when she first came to the Johnson family.
