Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia

David’s words were cleverly spoken, carrying a deep meaning.

At this moment, it was as if he was inviting Rachel to journey together, offering her a choice.

Rachel looked at David’s extended hand. She then reached out her hand without hesitation and said, “Let’s go.

When her hand met David’s palm, his hand closed tightly, securely enveloping her delicate and soft hand.

The warmth from David’s palm seeped through her slightly cool fingertips like a gentle and small warm stream slowly flowing into the depths of her heart.

Rachel looked up at him.

Their gazes met unexpectedly, and gentle smiles filled their eyes.

Their fingers intertwined, silently pledging a commitment to walk hand in hand through the rest of their lives.

After walking for a while, David led Rachel to a metal gate embedded within the mountainside.

The facial recognition system at the door automatically activated after recognizing David’s face.

Not long after, a man in training attire approached. His eyes flickered slightly upon seeing Rachel, and he respectfully called out, “Sir.”

David nodded slightly and turned to look at Rachel. “This is Tony, the head of the research facility.”

Rachel nodded. “Hello.”

Tony appeared pleasantly surprised. “Greetings, Miss Grey.”

The three of them walked side by side, passing through a long air-raid tunnel. Suddenly, the area ahead opened up, resembling a large bunker.

There were three entrances in different directions ahead, each guarded by personnel and equipped with strict security systems. One could imagine the tragic outcome if someone forced their way into this place.

Three minutes later, they arrived at the central control room.
