Chapter 402

Author: Tina Peach
Rachel only realized it now that Tyler had gotten the call from a doctor earlier, while she hadn't. If the call had been from Xavier, then it all made sense.

Tyler stood there with his hands in his pockets and a blank expression on his face.

"Come on in."

Xavier entered with a nurse, joining Rachel and the others. Jim was already awake and, upon seeing Rachel, instinctively tried to sit up.

"Rachel…"

"Dad, just stay lying down. Whatever you want to say, we can talk about it later."

Jim listened and lay back down obediently.

Rachel turned to Xavier. "Dr. Jenkins, how's my dad doing now?"

"There's been some improvement. Though the overall condition still isn't great, the fact that he's awake means we can start planning next steps. Plus, Tyler reached out to a top specialist overseas who happens to be an expert in your father's condition. We'll go over the treatment plan once it's finalized."

"Okay, I understand."

"If there's time, take your dad out for some light walks. Moderat

  • Countdown to My Divorce   Chapter 412

    Even if Rachel refused to be with him, she could forget about being with another man!A vicious gleam flashed in William's eyes. When he left the building, he spotted a familiar-looking car, which brought a frown to his face.Tyler's car was parked here. Did that mean that he was here with Rachel? Where were they going so late at night?William quickly hopped into his car. "Mr. Lewis, are we heading back now?" Arsen asked. "Wait."A few minutes later, he saw Rachel coming downstairs in a fresh set of clothes. She then went into Tyler's car.William patted Arsen's shoulder anxiously. "Follow them."Arsen had noticed Rachel too, simply because Tyler's car was too flashy. It was the only one in the entire Yurelia City, and never failed to draw everyone's attention on the road."Why is Ms. Lloyd with Mr. Hunt again?"William's eyes grew cold when he suddenly remembered something."Do you remember my uncle frequently going abroad during those years? He never planned on partneri

    William furrowed his brows, suddenly becoming alert."You know who my uncle is?" he asked Rachel."I don't. Of course, I wouldn't mind if you told me who he is."Rachel just wanted William to know that even if he wasn't willing to help Jim, she had alternatives.Even though she had no idea what this alternative looked like…She wouldn't give up on even a glimmer of hope.William was right about one thing. She would never give up so easily on her family. Jim was her only family left in this world, and she would fight tooth and nail to protect him. Rachel sensed William sighing in relief, as though glad that she still didn't know who his uncle was.She found it particularly odd and questioned William, "From the look on your face… Do I happen to know your uncle?"William glared at Rachel, his eyes flashing in warning. "I'm warning you, Rachel. My uncle isn't easy to deal with and will probably swallow you whole. Provoke him and you won't be able to shake him off the rest of yo

    William couldn't accept it. He lost control and shouted at Rachel."You still love me, don't you? We've been together for seven years! How can your feelings just disappear?"Rachel didn't care about a single word he said. In fact, hearing him talk like that made her feel nauseous for no reason. The stench of alcohol on him made her even more uncomfortable.She couldn't help but push William away."Can you stop being so full of yourself? If I still had feelings for you, I never would've left in the first place. When you were fooling around with Samantha, doing all that disgusting stuff behind my back, did you ever think about me?"But William didn't seem to think he was wrong at all. Instead, he growled, as if venting all his dissatisfaction with her."I never wanted to divorce you!""Then that makes you even more disgusting! You wanted to rekindle things with your precious first love while still pretending to be my husband. Don't you feel sick just hearing yourself? And you keep

    Rachel furrowed her brows. She seemed tense."What are you trying to say?""You know exactly what I mean."Tyler's eyes narrowed slightly. His Adam's apple dipped as his hand slid slowly down from her cheek.Rachel stared at Tyler for a few seconds. She then looked away awkwardly and chuckled."You're not William's uncle. Why do you even care?"She glanced at her watch, understanding now that Tyler's words made it clear he had no intention of helping her. If he had, he would've said so already.There was one less favor to owe him. She had enough debts as it was."It's getting late, Mr. Hunt. You should head back. I need to go home and change. I'll take a cab later.""I'll take you home."Tyler didn't wait for her response. He turned and walked off."Go say goodbye to Mr. Lloyd. I'll be waiting at the hospital entrance.""You…"Rachel wanted to decline, but Tyler didn't give her the chance. He was already gone around the corner.She sighed. There was no point in arguing. T

    Rachel's eyes suddenly welled up with tears. Jim was already old and gravely ill; that alone was hard enough. Now, he was tangled up in a legal case. If things went wrong, he could end up spending what little time he had left behind bars.Rachel couldn't hold her emotions back anymore. She got up, turning away from Jim."No, don't overthink it. Just focus on getting better. I'll find out the truth."With that, she hurried out of the ward.When Tyler followed her out, he spotted Rachel standing alone in a corner, quietly wiping her tears.He approached and pulled a clean handkerchief from his suit pocket. "Want this?"Rachel glanced at it and politely declined. "No, I'm fine.""Well, if your snot and tears end up smeared all over your clothes, that's one thing, but if it ends up in your mouth—""Ugh, stop! That's disgusting!"Before he could finish, Rachel quickly snatched the handkerchief and wiped her face. As soon as she finished, she realized what she had done, and now th

    Tyler's eyes darkened, and his tone was firm. "What if I insist on making things difficult?"The two officers exchanged glances, both clearly torn. They knew Tyler wasn't someone to cross. Offending him could be even worse than upsetting their higher-ups.Just as they hesitated, one of their phones suddenly rang."Hello? Got it. We'll report the rest once we're back."After hanging up, the officer turned to Tyler with a more respectful attitude."We just received instructions. Given Jim Lloyd's current condition, he'll be allowed to undergo questioning here in the hospital room. We're still investigating the matter, but we must remind the family that if the evidence is solid, no matter who you know, he will have to face the consequences of the law."Rachel didn't dare think that far ahead. Her only hope right now was that Jim wouldn't be taken away from the hospital. Everything else could wait."Thank you both. I apologize if we were out of line just now. Please don't take it pe
