Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia

Chapter 783

Rachel and Miriam arrived at Times Square in Seaxas.

The two of them were not in a hurry to go shopping. Instead, they sat in a cafe and had some-snacks and coffee for afternoon tea.

When the coffee was served, Rachel picked up a spoon and slowly stirred the coffee in front of her. She lowered her gaze and quietly looked at the small whirlpool in the cup.

The two of them just sat there. Rachel had no intention of speaking first.

She guessed that Miriam did not ask her out just to drink coffee and relieve her boredom. She probably had other plans.

As soon as this thought came to her mind, Miriam couldn’t help but speak first. “Actually, I asked you out because I have something to ask you.”

“About Lucas?” Rachel raised her eyebrows and looked at Miriam.

Miriam nodded. She clasped her hands together to hide the nervousness in her heart. “Actually, I’ve only met him twice. There are many things that I can’t ask him directly, so I can only come and ask you.”

“You’ve only met twice in total?” There was an unconcealable shock in Rachel’s eyes.

She thought that the two of them had decided to get married despite not having much of a foundation of love because they had spent some time together. She did not expect that they had only met twice.

She suddenly understood why Eleanor was holding her hand and telling her to have a good chat with Lucas in private.

Not only did the two of them not take marriage seriously, but they were simply fooling

around.

Noticing the frost in Rachel’s eyes, Miriam quickly explained, “Although we haven’t been together for long, I’m serious about him.”

No matter how one looked at it, it sounded like there was something else going on.

“What do you want to ask?” A meaningful smile flashed across Rachel’s eyes.

Seeing that Rachel had taken the initiative to speak, Miriam did not hide anything. “I wanted to ask you if there have been any other women by your brother’s side all these years? Or perhaps those kinds of women?”
