Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia

Chapter 738

Rachel hooked her fingers around the bowstring. Abruptly, she swung around and pointed the arrow straight at Georgia. “Miss Walker, you have to accept your loss. Stand over there!”

Despite her casual tone, her words held a threatening quality.

She had never been patient with strangers, especially people she had no affinity with.

It had taken her a lot of patience to sit at the same table as Georgia and play her games.

However, not only did this woman maliciously speculate about her, but she also made up rumors about Rachel’s relationship with Blackhawk. She should be prepared to pay the price for enraging Rachel!

Georgia looked at the bow in Rachel’s hand. She felt as though her heart had been plunged into bone-chilling water. Her entire body was so cold that she was almost trembling. The color had long faded from her face, leaving her looking white as a sheet.

She knew that Rachel would not let her off. Since that was the case, she might as well go all out and bring Rachel down!

“Rachel Grey, do you think I’m a fool? You’re taking this opportunity to take revenge!” Georgia spat, repeating all that she had heard. “You realized I overheard that you used to be married to another man and decided to take this chance to kill me and silence me forever. But walls have ears, you know! How long did you think you could keep your dirty little secret from everyone?”

“You’re nothing more than a used good. Do you seriously think you can become the female head of the Jones family? Why don’t you look at yourself and see if you’re worthy of that position?”

Among the people present, only Thomas had been kept in the dark.

He initially thought that David had been blinded by love. He had been blindsided enough by David’s announcement of his fiancée.

But to think that Rachel had been married before?

“It’s not up to you or me to decide that. Only David can make that decision.” Rachel raised an eyebrow. Lowering the bow, she gazed deeply at David and asked, “David, am I worthy?”

Her voice was very soft, but her tone clearly belied her belief, “I am worthy!”
