Chapter 463

Author: Tina Peach
Rachel had seen enough of such drama, be it in the past or soap operas on cable.

Rather than panicking, she found the whole thing hilarious.

Ray, as if sensing her bad mood, whimpered at her feet. Rachel knew that he felt bad for her. Dogs were very sympathetic creatures, after all.

She reached out to rub Ray's head, consoling him.

"I'm fine. Head upstairs for some snacks. I put some in your bowl earlier."

Seeing that, Wilma had the urge to laugh. "Ms. Lloyd, you're such an interesting person. Can this dog understand you? Why say so much to it?"

Rachel rubbed Ray's furry cheeks. "Sometimes, dogs understand people more than some people."

Wilma rose to her feet in a whoosh, her face red with ire. "How ill-mannered! You dare speak to an elder like that!"

Rachel looked at her in feigned confusion. "When did I do that?"

"You…!"

Wilma couldn't put forth any evidence, as it was true that Rachel didn't do that. Rather, she merely insinuated it.

With a dismissive wave of her hand,

    If Cecilia did that, it would also put Rachel in a tough spot.Cecilia pursed her lips and forced down the anger in her chest."Alright."Yvette smirked.Just as Cecilia was about to turn around and step out, Rachel suddenly grabbed her hand.Cecilia knew what Rachel was about to do, but she didn't want Rachel to get into a conflict with Yvette because of her.She whispered, "Rachel, let it go. It's just knocking on a door. It's not a big deal. Maybe she really didn't hear it earlier."Rachel gave Yvette the side-eye. She then strode to the doorway and knocked loudly before raising her voice."Still didn't hear that? Seems like you might need your ears checked, Yvette. Want me to recommend a good doctor for you? Not hearing a knock is one thing, but if you can't hear a client in a meeting, that could cause a serious loss for the company."Yvette put down her pen and fixed her gaze on Rachel. She forced a smile, so fake it was almost laughable."What's this? Are you already pl

    When Tyler heard that, he reacted as if he had just heard a joke."Does she even need to look for a sugar daddy? Are those women blind or what?"Yale quickly nodded. "Exactly, exactly! With Ms. Lloyd's looks and current abilities, there are plenty of men throwing themselves at her. She definitely doesn't need to go out of her way to look for anyone."Tyler pressed his tongue against the inside of his cheek. "How did she handle it?"At the mention of this, Yale immediately launched into a detailed explanation."Ms. Lloyd was actually pretty impressive. Her sister tried to step in and smooth things over, but Ms. Lloyd shut her down in just a few sentences. Then she told those women to write self-reflections and read them out loud at tomorrow's company-wide meeting."Tyler shook his head. He seemed unsatisfied. "She's still being too soft. With gossipy people like that, if you don't punish them hard enough, they'll just do it again."Having worked with Tyler for many years, Yale

    "There's no need to be so aggressive—""Are you done talking?" Rachel cut Yvette off bluntly.Yvette froze for a moment, her expression stiff. She forced a smile. "Rachel, how could you say that? I'm really doing this for your own good.""Yvette, I've never fallen for your sweet little act. If you love performing so much, do you want me to get you into showbiz? With your level of acting, maybe you could snag a supporting role. Too bad your performance doesn't work on me. If you're really trying to pin all this on me, maybe you should just get on your knees. That might be more convincing."Yvette's pupils quivered as she looked at Rachel in shock, wondering if the latter had lost her mind. Did Rachel actually ask her to kneel?Rachel raised her brow sarcastically. "What? Not kneeling? Weren't you just defending them like your life depended on it? Cat got your tongue now?"She approached the women standing nearby. "What's wrong? Weren't you all just talking so confidently? Sayi

    "Are you stupid? How could you even compare the two? Let me tell you. Even if you had the money, you still wouldn't be able to buy this!""Seriously, though. Where do you think she got her hands on a limited-edition car like that?""Probably found herself some rich and powerful man again. Didn't she do that before?""Yeah, I think so too. I mean, with what she's got, there's no way she could afford that car on her own.""Say what you will about her, but she really is good-looking. I bet half the men in Yurelia City are all over her. Didn't that rich heir Howard Ziegler chase after her for ages?"Rachel hadn't planned on paying any attention to their gossip, but then she figured that even if she stayed silent, they would just keep running their mouths. Between swallowing her anger and standing up for herself, she chose the latter.She turned on her heel and walked straight back to the group of women who had been chatting."Why don't you all go ahead and repeat what you just said?

    Tyler even had to interfere with what Rachel wore.It didn't matter. It's not like she dressed very boldly, anyway. Her usual style was fairly conservative.Rachel casually picked out a professional-looking outfit. After all, she was bringing Cecilia in for her first day on the job, and she had to look the part. Confidence was key.She figured Cecilia's résumé had already reached HR by now, which meant Yvette and Sasha probably already knew about it too.After changing, Rachel asked offhandedly, "Where's Tyler?""He left early this morning for a meeting at the office," Wanda replied.Rachel hesitated before asking, "Did he sleep well last night?"Wanda was briefly stunned by the question. "I'm not sure, Ms. Lloyd. Shouldn't you be the one who knows?"They had spent the night in the same room, after all. If anyone should know how Tyler slept, it should be her.Realizing how awkward that sounded, Rachel quickly tried to explain, "I meant, Wanda, did you notice if Tyler got up in

    Even Rachel thought that way about him, let alone the rest of Yurelia City.Jason clicked his tongue. "So you're really coming out of hiding now? Incredible. I have to say, Rachel's had quite an impact on you. You used to not give a damn about what people said."Tyler had always been the type to do whatever he pleased, completely unfazed by public opinion.He scoffed. "It's not the same. They've already turned me into some kind of urban legend. If I keep hiding, who knows what kind of wild rumors will come out next."Jason nodded. "Alright, alright. I'll help fix your image tomorrow."After hanging up, Tyler returned to the bedroom. There, curled up under the covers, was a delicate figure peacefully sleeping on his bed. In that moment, it felt like the emptiness inside him that had existed for so long was finally being filled.The next morning, Rachel received a call from Cecilia, who said she had arrived at Lloyd Enterprise. Rachel was about to respond when Cecilia started spe
