Chapter 804
Rachel instinctively swung her fist, but the person seemed to have memorized her every move and grabbed her approaching wrist.
As the person pinned Rachel’s hands behind her back, he pressed her against the door.
The familiar cold wooden fragrance assaulted Rachel’s face like a huge net, enveloping her tightly.
Rachel’s entire body trembled, and a look of shock flashed across her eyes.
Was it David?
Why did he come to Titia?
Rachel’s mind was filled with questions. When David saw that the woman. in front of him was so silent, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his dark eyes. flickered with a dangerous light.
David slowly lowered his head and lifted Rachel’s chin with hist well-defined fingers. He stared at Rachel with his dark eyes fixedly and asked in his usual low and cold voice, “Why are you back so late?”
Rachel pursed her lips slightly and did not say anything.
In the pitch-black room, there was only a weak light shining through the glass window.
In the shadows, one could vaguely see the vague outline of each other’s faces.
David pinched Rachel’s chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. His dark and deep eyes were filled with uncontrollable dominance..
Although David was lucky enough to avoid death this time, his vitality – was still injured.
David’s face looked a little haggard, and his eyes were deeper than before.
Their eyes met, and their breaths intertwined.
The atmosphere began to become subtly heavy, and it pressed down on Rachel’s heart for no reason. It was like a ball of cotton stuck in her chest, and her breathing became extremely uncomfortable.

Finally, Rachel couldn’t take it anymore and spoke first. “What brings you here today, Mr. Jones?”
Rachel’s lukewarm and sarcastic tone showed the anger in her heart that had yet to dissipate.
Rachel’s casual words made David’s heart tighten, and his breathing became irregular.
David’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and his voice was dry and hoarse. “Are you still angry?”
“No,” Rachel blurted out without thinking. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a hint of mockery.
David sighed helplessly. “You’re lying. You’re clearly still angry with me.”
Hearing this, Rachel only sneered emotionlessly. “Heh!”
“I know I was wrong.” David let go of Rachel’s chin and gently stroked her cheek with his fingers. David leaned down and pressed his forehead against Rachel’s. “I will solemnly apologize to you, okay?”
Even if David apologized now, Rachel would not forgive him.
Rachel took a deep breath and calmed the anger in her chest. “I accept your apology. It’s getting late. I’m tired and hungry. It’s time to rest. Mr. Jones, please go back.”
Rachel kept calling David “Mr. Jones” as if she had drawn a line between them just like the word “outsiders”.
It was as if a wall had been erected between them, preventing David from approaching. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
When Rachel brushed past David, he grabbed her arm and hugged her tightly from behind.
David wrapped his arms around Rachel’s slender waist and kept tightening his grip. David’s grip was so strong that it seemed like he wanted to break Rachel’s waist.
“Rae-Rae, I’m sorry. Don’t be angry, okay?” The man rested his chin on her neck. His low and hoarse voice sounded in her ears and slowly drifted into her ears. “I really know my mistake. Tell me. What do I have to do to make you not angry?”
David’s voice was low and a little hoarse, making one’s ears tingle.
However, the man’s arm around her waist was too tight, making Rachel breathing a little uncomfortable. Rachel twisted her body and struggled.
However, Rachel did not dare to struggle too violently, afraid that she would hurt David’s injuries.
Rachel took a deep breath. “Let go of me first.”
“No.” David was like a child throwing a tantrum. He stubbornly wrapped his arms around Rachel’s waist and refused to let go.
David knew that Rachel had a cold personality. It was not easy for David to slowly melt her heart. Now, it had returned to its original state because David hid something from Rachel.
David was angrier at himself.
David pursed his lips and pondered for a long time. His low and hoarse. voice sounded in Rachel’s car again. I’m sorry. I didn’t tell you about my injury because…”
“Are you afraid that I’ll worry?” Rachel interrupted David.
David’s silence meant he agreed with Rachel’s words. Rachel sighed. helplessly. “David, you keep saying that you’re sorry, but you don’t even know why I’m angry. Don’t you think it’s ridiculous?”
Rachel’s voice was lukewarm and unapproachable, constantly provoking David.
David wrapped his arms tightly around Rachel’s waist, completely forgetting about his injuries.
“Then can you tell me why?” David’s deep voice was mixed with madness because he was too anxious.
Rachel thought that they were all adults and that no matter what happened, they could reflect on themselves, find problems, and solve them.
However, David’s attitude made Rachel feel very perfunctory.
För a moment, the suppressed anger in Rachel’s heart was ignited again, circling in her chest.
Rachel took a deep breath and tried her best to suppress it. “Shouldn’t you reflect on yourself where the problem is? Do you want me to help you find mistakes every time something goes wrong in the future? Do
time something goes w
you need me to maintain our relationship alone? Or are you so perfunctory now that you don’t want to continue with me?”
“Rachel Grey!” David’s cold voice suddenly sounded. His voice was as if it had been soaked in snow in early spring, and it was bone-chilling. “I can understand that you’re angry, but do you know how hurtful your words were just now?”
“Hurtful?” Rachel looked at David indifferently. There was no fluctuation of emotions on Rachel’s face. “What about you? You lied to me and even teamed up with everyone around me to lie to me. Don’t you feel a sense of accomplishment to keep me in the dark like a fool?
“David, I’ve always thought that when it comes to relationships, one has to put one’s heart into it. However, your deception of me makes me feel that everything is just my own wishful thinking and self- righteousness! If you think that couples should hide things from each other, then I think there’s no need for me to be honest with you from now on.”
People always said that it was hard to tell what was in a person’s heart. The distrust between people came from it.
The source of their trust was nothing more than mutual honesty.
Rachel suddenly felt much better after saying the words that she had been holding in her heart. Even her breathing became easier than before.
“Have a good rest.”
With that, Rachel pulled David’s hand away and turned to leave.
Just as Rachel let go, David grabbed her hand at the back and held her tightly in his arms.
One of David’s hands gripped Rachel tightly, the other clasped the back of her neck, his head buried deep in the hollow of her neck.
