Countdown to My Divorce Chapter 65
All of a sudden, Rachel didn't know what to say to Tyler. She wasn't that close to him, and couldn't just ask him what he was busy with.She hesitated for a moment before typing a few words.[I have something important to discuss with you.]After looking at the text over and over again and checking that there were no issues with it, Rachel sent it.Yet, she didn't hear from him afterward. She didn't want to ask him again. If he really was busy and she kept texting him, it would only annoy him.After all, Tyler wasn't a kind man.Rachel had no choice but to leave things be and focus on shifting her belongings to her new workstation.Samantha kept herself busy in the company the entire day, probably due to pressure from the shareholders and the fact that she had made a huge blunder.Rachel was done moving and arranging her belongings when she saw Samantha rush back to her workstation, cheeks flushed and brows furrowed.It was clear for all to see that things had been tough for

At Rachel's words, Samantha's face fell. She looked at Rachel with a pitiful expression and pleaded, "Rachel, don't you know Mr. Hunt? For you, it's just a matter of a phone call. How am I supposed to secure an appointment with him?"Samantha tugged on the hem of William's jacket, the same piteous look still on her face."William, talk to Rachel. Don't you always say that she's the nicest?"William looked at Samantha's red-rimmed eyes and comforted her tenderly, "Don't worry, I know Rachel best. She wouldn't decline to help. Forget helping you, she even gives money to the homeless on the streets!"Samantha heaved a sigh of relief and patted her chest. "That's great! I knew Rachel wasn't such a heartless person."Rachel's eyes narrowed.William turned around and said to her, "Rachel, you know Mr. Hunt. He even helped you before. Just find an excuse to ask him out for a meal. It shouldn't be a problem."Again, it wasn't a question but a declaration.Rachel's eyes were filled wi

William was exhausted from the mental battle with the old foxes in the meeting room earlier. He didn't expect to have to deal with Rachel after all that.Usually, Rachel wouldn't pass up a chance to help him at work.He held her shoulders and signed to her patiently, "Rachel, I was just putting on an act for the shareholders just now. Don't take it to heart. You know them. If I hadn't done that, they would have said something nasty."Rachel remained silent.William crouched and looked straight into her eyes. "If you don't agree to it, the shareholders will issue a warning. If that goes on our official website, it would affect Samantha's career prospects."Rachel looked coldly at William. "What's that got to do with me?"Her words caused the air around them to freeze.William's face darkened with displeasure. Samantha looked upset, too. She always looked bright-eyed and full of spirit, but whenever she felt indignant, she resembled a frightened rabbit, and it struck sympa

Rachel poured a glass of water for Cecilia and helped her into a chair. After Cecilia calmed down, she said to Rachel, "Don't worry. Mr. Lewis took my suggestion. The shareholders agreed to it."Rachel heaved a long sigh of relief.She knew clearly that William had been forced to a corner; given how antagonistic he was with Tyler, he wouldn't have made such a compromise so easily otherwise.William also knew that while Tyler could afford having the project delayed, the same couldn't be said for him.Most of the profitable projects in the market in the first half of the year were signed under Tyler's company. The projects Lewis Enterprise managed to clinch didn't offer much—they were only sufficient for the company to break even.There were also the two projects Rachel clinched, but they were probably snatched from under Tyler's nose. She just didn't know about it."Great. I need to take a day off work and go home tomorrow," Rachel said. Cecilia's face changed. "Back to your o

Yet now, William was treating another woman the same way he used to treat Rachel.It was truly…Rachel simply sat in her chair, amending another proposal without a twitch on her face."My signature isn't on the proposal for Project Oasis. It's also not under my care. I shouldn't be inside in the first place."Cecilia pursed her lips indignantly, finding it unfair for Rachel."In that case, Mr. Lewis shouldn't have let you in. What's the meaning of chasing you out in the middle of the meeting? It looks so bad for you, and our colleagues might gossip.""Cecilia, can you do me a favor?"Rachel wasn't one to sit around and complain about matters. The first thing she always did whenever she encountered a problem was to solve it. Her time here was drawing to a close. She had to finish up all the projects at hand before she could leave in peace.Cecilia naturally had no idea what Rachel was planning to do, but was very glad to help when needed. "Just speak your mind. There's no need

Rachel stood where she was, her feet rooted to the ground. She didn't move an inch.She took a deep breath. Even doing that felt painful."I've already explained about Tyler. They don't believe me, but you too?"William remained unmoved in his seat. His brows furrowed, and he said in a low, irritable voice, "So what if I believe you? We're talking about work, and the company's interests come first. Don't put me on the spot."Rachel realized that William didn't even bother signing to her before everyone.At the moment, Samantha spoke up for Rachel. "Mr. Lewis, there's probably a misunderstanding somewhere. How could Rachel have anything to do with Mr. Hunt? I think there must be something we're missing here."William remained resolute. "I don't care even if there's a misunderstanding! I'm taking responsibility for the project on behalf of the company and our employees."Even the shareholders felt embarrassed for Rachel. Her project was taken away, and the new colleague in charg

If word were to spread, this would be ludicrous.Rachel smirked inwardly and glanced at Samantha, who was still acting as pitiful and innocent as a lamb. The woman looked nothing like the wicked schemer she truly was. Her words and actions reminded everyone that something was going on between Rachel and Tyler.The shareholders started discussing the matter."Think about it! Ever since Ms. Judd joined the company, all of Ms. Lloyd's projects were stolen from her. Even the project with Trinity Enterprise was signed under Ms. Judd's name, and Ms. Lloyd lost her position as director. She's the wife of the CEO of Lewis Enterprise, for goodness' sake! If I were her, I wouldn't stay in this company. If LS Enterprise offered me better terms, why would I stay here?""But if she were to do that, people would start gossiping about Mr. Lewis, and how his wife and his rival… Well, it'll be a huge scandal if word spreads."Rachel couldn't help but be in awe of Samantha. From now on, she would g

Samantha's face burned as she pursed her lips, and she cast William a cautious look."Mr. Lewis, I had intended to start work today. I didn't know how things turned out this way… You said Rachel would help me out."With that, Samantha turned to look piteously at Rachel, signing indignantly at her."Rachel, I know you started on Project Oasis earlier. Why didn't you tell me about it? Or are you still angry at me? I already said that if you want the project, I can let you have it. In fact, I can let you have it right now."Rachel was tickled pink by the act that Samantha was putting on."Ms. Judd, you earned this project by merit. I take my defeats in stride, so don't worry about that. Do a good job on this project, and it'll be beneficial for your performance review, too. Don't let Mr. Lewis down."Rachel's gaze landed on William as she spoke, and his face turned stormy.William's gaze swept across the shareholders in the room."There's no point in finding out who's responsible.

Cecilia, on the other hand, was fired just because she tried speaking up for Rachel.The bias was so blatant.William retracted his gaze, turned around, and pointed at the meeting room."Let's go," he said to Rachel.Rachel was in disbelief. "I'm no longer a director of the company. Is it appropriate for me to attend such an important meeting?""No matter. No one will dare say a word with me around."Just like before, William's words somehow managed to put her mind at ease.Yet, there was something inexplicably different.Based on what Rachel knew of the shareholders, they would never allow such a major oversight to happen to a project under anyone's hands.Rachel wanted to see the look on William's face when he found out that the proposal for the rights to manage the project actually came from her. Would he regret not giving her oversight of Project Oasis?Had it been in her hands, such a blunder would never have happened.After entering the meeting room with William, Rache
