Chapter 542
Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia
Chapter 542 David entered the room. When David saw Rachelâs panicked expression, he raised his eyebrows slightly and asked. âWhatâs wrong?â
âItâs... Itâs nothing.â Panicking, Rachel hurriedly lowered her eyes, not daring to look David in the eye.
Rachel had a feeling that Davidâs sharp gaze was piercing through her and that David was able to see through her.
David stepped forward and approached Rachel. Slowly, David forced Rachel towards the closet. All of a sudden, David stretched out his arm to press against the closet door which was behind Rachel. With his hand on the side of Rachelâs face, David slowly bent down and leaned forward.
Davidâs handsome and well-sculpted face slowly inched towards Rachelâs face.
Their faces were mere inches apart and they could clearly feel the breaths that the other person was exhaling.
Rachelâs eyelashes fluttered as she panicked.
âBut youâre obviously hiding something from me,â David said as he stretched out his finger and lifted Rachelâs chin. David stared at Rachel intently.
âRachelâs good in everything. However, thereâs one thing that Rachel is not good at, and thatâs lying.
âEvery time Rachel lied, her eyes would move around. It was as if Rachel was feeling guilty about something that she had done.â
David thought inwardly.
âI... I have nothing to hide from you,â Rachel quibbled with a weak voice. Rachelâs eyes were moving around as she tried not to look at David. However, Rachel couldnât help but sneak glances at the cabinet.
David followed Rachelâs line of sight.
âLook at me!â In a panic, Rachel tugged at Davidâs head and turned his head to face her. At the same time, Rachel tiptoed and kissed David on the lips.
The sudden kiss surprised David and he felt flattered.
Perhaps it was Davidâs natural reaction, he quickly took the initiative of the kiss although David was surprised by Rachelâs actions.
David wrapped an arm around Rachelâs slender waist, while his other hand went through Rachelâs smooth and silky long hair and held onto the back of Rachelâs head.
David deepened the kiss and kept asking for more. Domineeringly, David plundered every inch of Rachelâs breath.
Rachel could feel that the air in her lungs was slowly being taken by David and that her body was softening against David.
Instinctively, Rachelâs hands h**ked around Davidâs neck to find support.
However, in the next second, Rachel felt a grip on her waist and she was lifted upwards. David had actually carried her to the nearby jewelry table and placed her on it.
Sitting on the jewelry table, Rachel was now on higher ground as compared to David. Rachel no longer needs to tiptoe in order to respond to Davidâs kiss. Instead, Rachel just needed to lower her head slightly for her lips to touch Davidâs.
Davidâs gaze never left Rachel, and he noticed the flash of surprise in Rachelâs eyes. The corners of Davidâs mouth curled upwards into a smile and he asked, âAre you satisfied now?â
âHuh?â Rachelâs almond-shaped eyes were glistening from arousal as she looked at David in confusion. To David, Rachel looked as if she was an inexperienced demoness and was completely unaware of how seductive and attractive she was now.
Davidâs eyes darkened uncontrollably, and it was as if there was a spark of fire in the depths of his dark eyes. All of the emotions that David had kept hidden in the past were revealed now as he stared passionately and hungrily at Rachel.
Rachelâs fingertips curled up slightly when she met Davidâs eyes which were dark and filled with arousal and desire.
âAre you... hungry?â Rachel was at a loss and tried to change the topic.
David raised his eyebrows and looked at her while his arm around Rachelâs waist tightened involuntarily. His low and cold voice was filled with arousal as David. said, âAre you sure that you want to talk about this with me now, under such. circumstances?â
Davidâs hoa rse voice was exceptionally seductive as he stared at Rachel.
The distance between the two of them was suddenly much shorter when David pulled Rachel towards him. Rachel twisted her body uncomfortably and poked Davidâs firm chest with her finger.
Through her fingertips, Rachel could clearly feel the heat that was emitting from Davidâs body. The sudden heat made Rachelâs heart sk*p a beat as she trembled slightly.
Rachel pursed her lips and looked at David tenderly. âShall I cook tonight?â Rachel asked softly.
âOkay.â David lifted Rachel and carried her down from the table.
When the two of them turned to leave, David caught a glimpse of the box that was hidden under the cabinet from the corner of his eye. Pausing for a moment, there was a glint in Davidâs dark eyes when he stared profoundly at the box as realization dawned.
