Betrayal At The Altar By Dolores Delia Chapter 165
A thought popped up in Jimmy Shain and Landon Walker’s minds almost at the same time.
“This man in front of us is out of his mind.
“He is actually doing something for a woman!”
“Madness. This is madness!” Jimmy Shain muttered and quickly took a sip from the glass tumbler in his
hand to calm himself down.
On the other hand, Landon Walker was much calmer than Jimmy Shain. The former raised his eyes,
and through his eyes, one could see that he was in deep thought. “If you rashly brought her back, not
only will your family not acknowledge her, but I am afraid it will also bring her unnecessary trouble. I
would advise you to think twice.”
“Of course, I will not bring her back recklessly.” David Jones said, “She shall receive a handsome
betrothal gift, and I will marry her officially. Our wedding will be as grand as the royals, and I will give
her everything. She shall be received most grandly.”
At this moment, even the usually calm Landon Walker could not help but fall silent.
David Jones, who had always been calm and restrained, had been blinded by beauty. If news of this

However, this man had always done whatever he wanted. No one could change what he had set his
mind on.
“We shall see if she could receive your good intentions graciously.” Landon Walker smiled.
In Seaxas, Rachel Grey had the Johnson family’s protection, but things would be different with the
Jones family.
Even if the Johnson family wanted to protect her, it would probably be beyond their reach.
David Jones traced his finger along the rim of his whisky tumbler. His movements were neither slow nor
hurried, revealing a hint of indolence. “I, David Jones, shall be her mainstay!”
There was an insufferably arrogant and domineering tone in his words, which made one’s heart quiver.
The phone on the table suddenly buzzed.
Landon Walker and Jimmy Shain simultaneously looked at David Jones’s phone.
They were surprised to see the caller ID named “honey.”
The two of them felt a gush of mawkishness.
It was hard to imagine that such a mushy nickname would appear on David Jones’s phone.
Landon Walker and Jimmy Shain looked at each other with a hint of mockery in their eyes.
“Alright, I guess he is serious this time,” they thought.
Just as they were holding their glasses and waiting for David Jones to pick up the call, David Jones
very calmly told them to leave.
Jimmy Shain was too stunned to speak.
He gripped his glass tightly and resisted the urge to flip the table.
Landon Walker put down his glass, picked up his jacket, and stood up. He patted Jimmy Shain’s
shoulder. “We should go. I will send you to the docks.”
Jimmy Shain stuck out his tongue and tapped his cheek. He put down the glass in his hand forcefully
and turned around to leave.
As the two of them left, they vaguely heard David Jones say gently, “Why are you not asleep yet?”
Jimmy Shain scolded Davied Jones in his heart. “What a bastard! What happened to bro code?”
Rachel Grey and David Jones were on the phone for more than ten minutes when suddenly, there was
a knock on the door.
“I will talk to you later. Good night.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe hurriedly hung up the phone and jumped off the bed to open the door.
Tom Johnson was standing at her door. “Are you in bed already?”
“Not yet.” Rachel Grey brushed her long hair with her hands and stood daintily next to Tom Johnson.
“Uncle Tom, what is the matter?”
Tom Johnson stared at her deeply.
After hesitating for a while, he thought of Old Mr. Johnson’s repeated reminders and finally suppressed
the thought of finding out about her relationship with David Jones.
“Sir asked me to remind you to attend the wedding of the Shain family’s heiress on time tomorrow.”
“Got it.”
After Tom Johnson went off, Rachel Grey lazily climbed back into bed and scrolled through the unread
messages on her phone. She
inadvertently caught a glimpse of the quiet and lifeless chatgroup Mary Green created.
She suddenly thought of something and quickly removed Mary Green from her blacklist.
Right after that, countless messages by Mary Green that had been blocked popped up.
One of them was an invitation to Iris Shain’s wedding
