Betrayal At The Altar

Chapter 747

Rachel turned around and picked up her phone. The corners of her lips curled up involuntarily when she saw David’s message.

She looked at David’s profile picture in a daze.

She remembered that David’s original profile picture on WhatsApp was pitch-black, with nothing able to be seen.

However, a small dot of light appeared in the darkness at some point.

Although the speck of light was small and unremarkable, it was the most attention-grabbing thing in the darkness.

At this moment, her phone vibrated again.

It was a message from Mary Green.

The smile on Rachel’s lips faded a little when she saw the short blessing Mary sent, but she replied to her accordingly.

Then, she opened her chat with David and slowly typed a reply.

David called as soon as she sent out the message.

“Why aren’t you asleep yet?” The man’s deep and magnetic voice slowly traveled from the phone to Rachel’s ears.

The man’s voice was low and magnetic, making Rachel’s ears itch.

She raised her hand to dig her ears and turned over to lie on the bed. “Aren’t you the same, being awake this late?”

There was a hint of fatigue in her voice.

“I was missing you,” David suddenly said.

Rachel was stunned for a moment, and the smile on her lips grew

wider. “Me too.”

Previously, she had not felt bored of David when they were stuck

together all day in Aureliana. Instead, spending time together became a

habit.

Because of this, she felt off staying with the Johnson family tonight.

David, who was sitting in his car, heard her words and a faint smile appeared in the depths of his eyes. He turned to look out of the window. “Why didn’t you come to see me if you miss me?”
