Chapter 192

Author: Tina Peach
When Cassandra heard that someone had invited Rachel out for dinner, her narrowed eyes instantly filled with suspicion.

"Which friend? It's not Tyler, is it?" she asked.

Rachel's hand froze slightly in the middle of grabbing her bag, but she didn't respond. She wasn't facing Cassandra. Instead she simply walked straight toward the door as if she hadn't heard anything.

Fury surged across Cassandra's face. She stood abruptly and pointed a trembling finger at Rachel's back. "Rachel, stop right there!"

Rachel didn't even pause. She just walked right out.

Cassandra's entire body trembled with anger. "This is outrageous! She has absolutely no respect for me!"

"Madam, don't forget, she can read lips, but she can't hear," Mrs. Jones said.

That snapped Cassandra back for a moment, but the anger was still there.

"Just the sight of her irritates me. Who does she think she is? She used to have the Lloyd family backing her, but now? She's not even their biological daughter."

She turned tow

    Tyler started the engine.Rachel shook her head. “Nope.”“If not, then come with me for a business trip.”“To negotiate a deal?”“Yes.”Rachel agreed to it without thinking twice.Given Tyler’s current situation, it was good enough that someone was willing to negotiate a deal with him right now. At least, that gave his company a chance to make a comeback.Before all these happened, Steven and the entire Lewis family had a chance to reconcile with Tyler and fix their relationship. And yet, they chose the worst option possible. It only served to drive Tyler further away from them.If they truly saw Tyler as family, they would understand the kind of person he was. When they chose to do it the hard way, a man as proud and haughty as him would never take it lying down.Had Steven backed down and talked calmly to Tyler, Tyler might have given them a chance. However, it all went wrong when Steven used a heavy-handed method to force Tyler to yield.Rachel retracted her gaze. “Can you

    At Rachel’s mention of her salary, the saleslady immediately became wary. She looked naively at Rachel. “Miss, are you trying to take my job? You won’t be able to do this job. You have to deal with nasty customers all day.”Rachel had the urge to laugh at the fearful look on the young lady’s face. She hurriedly explained, “Don’t worry, I’m not here to steal your job. I just think you’re very friendly and speak very well. Do you want to consider a change of jobs?”Rachel thought of hiring this young lady if she majored in a relevant field. The company was currently in need of a salesperson who could liaise with customers, anyway.The saleslady was surprised by Rachel’s question. “Change of jobs? But what job can I switch to? I used to study finance and design. I only picked up sales after I started working.”It was Rachel’s turn to feel surprised. “You didn’t study sales?”Rachel thought the saleslady majored in that. It turned out to be something she picked up later on. That mea

    The saleslady thought Rachel had suffered terrible grief. Rachel wanted to explain the situation—but then she decided it wasn’t necessary, since she seldom came here to buy things.Instead of making a response, she settled on a lily-of-the-valley perfume.“I’ll take this one.”The saleslady was shocked. When she recovered from her surprise, she whispered to Rachel, “Miss, this perfume is the most expensive in our shop. Are you sure you want your boyfriend to buy something so expensive for another woman?”Rachel’s face changed slightly.She turned to look at Tyler, who was still lounging on the couch like he owned the place, leisurely flipping through a magazine. He looked like he was born to enjoy life.What else could Rachel say when Tyler wanted to buy the perfume for a client? She forced a smile on her face. “Please help me pack it up.”The saleslady started wrapping up the perfume, but wouldn't stop talking. “Miss, do you want a bottle for yourself? You might as well sp

    Tyler’s words didn’t just stun the saleslady. Even Rachel’s body stiffened with shock.The saleslady's gaze shifted awkwardly between Tyler and Rachel.She had seen her fair share of men buying perfumes for their affair partners, but this was her first time seeing one bring his girlfriend along while buying perfume for another woman.Rachel returned to the matter at hand. “Yes, it’s for a radiant and poised woman. Give me your best recommendation.”The saleslady forced a smile on her face, pitying Rachel from within. She then started introducing them to one of the collections.Two other salespeople stood at the cashier counter and started gossiping under their breath.“Men are getting bolder nowadays! They used to bother keeping their affairs a secret. They'd bring the other woman to shop behind their wives' backs. I’ve never seen someone as bold as this guy!”“Exactly! But he's so handsome. I’d want to marry him if I were a woman.”“I think that lady next to him looks good, to

    “I don’t know much about women’s stuff. Why don’t you come with me to check it out?”Rachel hesitated for a moment before nodding. “Sure.”She followed Tyler into the mall and paid attention to his gait. When she saw that he was walking perfectly fine, she inwardly heaved a sigh of relief.When Tyler first got injured, she was very worried that he might end up disabled. She even prepared herself for the possibility of taking care of him for the rest of his life.She knew how proud a man he was. How could he accept a disability in his body?Rachel never told anyone about it, but she had been on tenterhooks the entire time. She was also worried about putting pressure on Tyler.When they entered the mall, Tyler’s gaze landed on the shops on his left and right, a jewelry shop and a shop of a well-known perfume brand.He asked Rachel, “What shall we get?”Rachel analyzed the situation seriously. “What kind of lady is your customer? Is she an intellectual or a demure lady? Does she

    Tyler lowered his head, slightly upset. “You see him as a child, but he might not think the same way about you.”Rachel, a divorcee, naturally caught the meaning behind Tyler’s words. She didn’t feel anything in particular, aside from having the urge to laugh.Covering her mouth to suppress her laughter, she said, “Are you going to watch out for every man who crosses my path? Tyler, your jealousy is getting out of hand!”Tyler nodded pensively. “Yeah, it is.”He sat back up straight and stepped on the accelerator.His side profile was tense, his jawline sharp as a blade. Rachel knew at a glance that he was angry.She pursed her lips, deciding not to bother herself about it.Tyler was being ridiculous. He could be jealous of anyone but Jerry. Jerry had been single all these years while working for her. What would a kid like him know?Tyler had removed all the boys they met at the barbecue meat eatery who started following Rachel on social media, and adjusted her settings so he
