Betrayal At The Altar

Chapter 700

The news was so sudden that when Rachel heard it, she froze.

“Why so sudden?”

From the other side of the line, Vulture pressed his lips together and briefly summarized the call he’d had with Lone Wolf earlier. “There’s some unrest at the border. We need to go over and control the situation urgently.”

When Vulture finished, he added, “By the way, Lone Wolf asked me to ask you something. Do you have family in Aureliana?”

“Why do you ask?” Rachel frowned slightly, a hint of contemplation flashing in her eyes.

“Maybe Lone Wolf got the wrong information.” Since there was an emergent situation, Vulture didn’t explain much but repeatedly reminded Rachel, “The Jones family’s situation is complicated. You have to be careful.”

“Got it.”

After hanging up the phone, Rachel frowned slightly, her eyes filled with contemplation.

Why did they say that she had family in Aureliana?

For some reason, what Mr. Davies had said about her looking like a friend of his resounded again in Rachel’s mind.

Could this so-called family be the friend that Mr. Davies had mentioned?

Just as she was feeling baffled, David approached Rachel, bringing with him a crisp woody fragrance. David reached out his finger and tucked Rachel’s hair behind her ear. “What are you thinking about?”

Rachel looked up and suddenly met David’s deep black eyes.

Rachel pursed her lips. “Nothing. Vulture called just now and said that something urgent came up and he had to leave early.”

“So urgently?” David asked.

Rachel responded affirmatively as she looked at David, her lips moving slightly.

“You want to send him off?” David watched as Rachel lowered her eyes and figured out what she was thinking. David placed his palm on the top of her head and caressed it gently and lovingly. “Go.”

“Go where?” Rachel looked up at him.
