After the Secret Wedding Rise of My Queen novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278 Xander Gets Intimate With Isabel
The conversation reached a standstill as the two of them left the tent together, walking past Rachel and heading out.

Rachel stood still like a wooden post, her perfectly made-up face twisted into an ugly, terrifying expression of jealousy and anger.

Harriet had been secretly watching from a distance. As she observed Rachel's retreating figure, her heart swelled with sympathy, and she couldn't help but wish she could slap Isabel hard for what she had done.

Harriet approached Rachel from behind and gently patted her on the shoulder.

"Rachel, don't be upset, you—" Harriet said, walking up beside her. But as she caught sight of Rachel's frightening face, she froze, at a loss for words.

Is this Rachel?

How could she be showing such a dreadful expression? It was completely unlike the sweet, gentle Rachel she knew.

After a moment, Rachel seemed to snap out of it and quickly put on a pitiful, helpless expression.

"I'm not upset, not at all," she said, wiping away a tear as she spoke.

Seeing Rachel's wronged expression, Harriet shook her head. She must have been mistaken earlier. There was no way Rachel could have shown such a malicious look.

It was probably just the dark surroundings around them that were playing tricks on her eyes.

"Alright, Rachel … don't cry. Crying won't solve anything," Harriet said, pulling Rachel into her arms. "Don't worry. Xander has a sharp eye, and his ability to read people is second to none. He might be confused right now, but I'm sure that before long, he'll realize how wicked Isabel truly is, and he'll push her as far away as possible."

"I hope so," Rachel's voice was faint and weak.

Hearing Rachel's tone, Harriet felt even more certain that she had simply misjudged Rachel before.

After the fireworks ended, everyone returned to their tents to rest.

Isabel glanced over at the neighboring tent and pursed her lips.

"What are you looking at?" A low, pleasant voice came from behind, pulling Isabel's thoughts back.

"There!" Isabel lifted her chin, pointing at the tent next to them.
