Betrayal At The Altar By Dolores Delia Chapter 128 “Hiss- David Jones gasped. His eyes suddenly darkened, tightening his grip on the sofa. His entire body was tense. It did not hurt. It felt more like a phantom itch if anything. He wanted to relieve the itch but he could not pinpoint where the itch was. A part of him felt like losing control. His breathing was heavy as he stared at the woman in front of him. Rachel Grey slowly raised her head. There was a sly glint in her eyes. “This is called reciprocation. Mr. Jones.” Rachel was unscrupulous as compared to David showing leniency. She left red marks on his skin and also an obvious bite mark. It would take at least a week for the mark to subside. Looking at her exquisite face, David’s eyes darkened. “It’s time to get off work.” Rachel gently pushed his chest. However, the man grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms. At the same time, his broad palm supported the back of her neck. Rachel looked up to see his face inch closer. There was a playful smile on his face. “You want to escape unscathed after lighting a fire?” An indescribable desire surged in his eyes. He couldn’t control it, nor could did he want to. The moment their eyes met, Rachel felt as if she had been scorched. Her fingertips curled slightly, and there was no expression on her face. “You can do it, so why can’t I?” “Heh!” David suddenly chuckled and pinched her chin with his fingertips. “You really know how to torture me.” His husky voice invaded her ear canal. Rachel could not help but feel her heart pound in anticipation. “Let’s go now. Didn’t you say you want to invite me on a date?” She hurriedly pushed David away and slowly tidied the creases on her dress. David casually picked up his coat on the sofa and extended his hand to Rachel. “Let’s go.” Like an ordinary couple, the two of them went for dinner first. Then, they walked side by side on the street and chatted. What was important was not the content of the conversation but each other’s While the two walked together, they felt the evening breeze swish past them. company. The dim streetlights cast their shadows on the ground, In the beginning, they just walked side by side. But now, they could not help but interlock their fingers. Rachel tucked the loose strands of hair behind her ear. Then she suddenly realized that her ear studs were gone. She was stopped in her tracks. Then she looked around her. “What’s wrong?” David quickly noticed something was wrong. His gaze fell on her empty left earlobe. “My earring is missing,” Rachel muttered thoughtfully. “Forget it. It’s just an earring.” However, David did not seem to hear her. He walked toward the path they came from and checked them one by one. In the end, he found Rachel’s earrings beside a grass patch. David ignored Rachel’s outstretched hand and moved closer to her. “I’ll help you.” The moment he approached her, the familiar woody fragrance on the man’s body filled her nostrils, causing her heart to race uncontrollably. David lowered his eyes to look at the obedient woman. His fingers brushed past her cheek and through her soft hair. Then he held the back of her head and kissed her. Although it was just a simple touch, it made Rachel’s entire body feel as if it had been electrocuted. A numbing feeling swept through her entire body. “You… Many people are watching!” “So it’s okay when no one’s around?” Rachel was at a loss for words. This man would always distort her words. But the worst thing was that she could not refute him. She felt that she might as well not say anything since the more she spoke, the more mistakes she would make.
