Betrayal At The Altar

Chapter 752

Rachel pushed David away and walked out of the elevator with a calm expression.

Unfortunately, her legs went limp and she staggered. Fortunately, David reacted quickly and hooked his arm around her waist.

The warmth of the man’s palm landed on her waist, making her feel as if she had been burned.

Rachel looked at him.

David’s eyes were dark and deep, immersed in a desire that made one’s heart skip a beat. He leaned in and said in a low and cold voice beside Rachel’s ear, “Why did you kiss me just now?”

Rachel was speechless.

She pursed her lips. “Don’t you know?”

David decided to follow through with his plan even though he knew the answer. He simply shook his head. “I don’t know.”

Rachel choked and glared at him. “Forget it if you don’t know.”

With that, she shook off his hand and walked straight to the car.

The corners of David’s lips curled into a smile. He quickly chased after her and held her hand. “I really don’t know. Tell me about it.”

“I have nothing to tell you.” Rachel’s cheeks were still slightly flushed.

She thought, “How could I say such a thing?

“I can’t possibly say that everything you did tonight touched me and I took the initiative to kiss you because I didn’t know how to express my gratitude, can I?”

She could not bear to say such words.

Moreover, her pride did not allow her to say something like that.

Chapter 752

After returning to Sandalwood Hills, Rachel got out of the car first.

At this moment, Chris walked over from the side. “Miss Grey, this is what you left in the car.”

It was the box that Ronnie had given her before.

Rachel took the box and smiled. “Thank you.”

David, who was following behind her, saw the box. There was a slight flash in his eyes, but he did not say anything.

After the two of them walked into the living room, David took off his suit jacket. “Do you want supper?”
