Betrayal At The Altar

Chapter 669

Rachel turned around and sized up the tall and slender woman in front of her again.

“Miss Grey, my name is Chris Jones, and I will be your personal bodyguard starting today,” Chris said expressionlessly.

“I don’t need a bodyguard,” Rachel replied.

Her words were not meant for Chris, but rather to convey her thoughts to David.

David handed the fruit salad to Rachel. “Chris is a person of few words. She will not disturb you. She will only appear by your side when necessary. You won’t feel uncomfortable with her presence at other times.”

“You know that’s not what I meant,” Rachel said as she reached out and took the salad bowl.

She didn’t mind Chris’ presence affecting her. It was just that she was used to being on her own for all these years, and having someone around meant she would have to divert some of her attention.

“Why would he be doing such menial tasks for a woman?”

“Why don’t you let her be your driver?” David suggested again.

Rachel looked at David, hesitated, and finally reluctantly agreed. “Fine.”
