Chapter 485

Author: Tina Peach
Wanda was momentarily stunned, but quickly nodded.

"Alright."

Rachel carried the coffee upstairs. She raised her hand and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Tyler's voice was cold. Just standing at the doorway made Rachel shiver involuntarily. It seemed like he was still in a bad mood.

Knowing Tyler's temperament, it felt off. If it really were just work, it didn't add up. This wasn't his first time handling tough situations. Unless it was something catastrophic, his mood usually wasn't affected.

Could something major have gone wrong at the company?

Rather than standing there speculating, Rachel figured she might as well go in and ask.

She pushed open the door and stepped inside. Tyler was seated in his study and focused on the computer screen. Even when he heard her enter, he didn't look up.

Rachel placed the coffee on his desk.

"Tyler, here's your coffee."

Upon hearing that, Tyler's fingers paused over the keyboard. His stern gaze landed on her. He sounded a little surprised.

  • Countdown to My Divorce   Chapter 488

    The scent of chamomile from Tyler's shampoo still lingered in the air. It was fresh and calming, making it hard to stay awake.Rachel let out a yawn. "Stop talking already. Let me keep going."All she wanted now was to lull Tyler to sleep as quickly as possible.Tyler rested his head on Rachel's lap without hesitation. "Go on."Rachel looked at him. Could he not be like this?On second thought, if she kept wasting time arguing with him, he might stay awake until sunrise.So she started making things up."William's uncle might have some sort of deformity, who knows? Maybe there's something wrong with his face. That would explain why he never shows up anywhere. Either he's horribly disfigured, or just like the psychos in those movies. I mean, something's definitely off."Tyler's brows twitched as he listened. Rachel was basically describing him as a monster.Just as he lifted his head, ready to ask for more detail, he noticed Rachel's head drooping. Her lips parted slightly, and

    "Yeah. I want to hear just how twisted he supposedly is," Tyler said as he lay on his side, propping up his head.Rachel looked at his posture. He didn't look like someone getting ready to sleep at all. It was obvious he planned to keep her up all night talking.He wasn't seriously expecting her to tell stories all night, was he?Rachel wasn't stupid. She tested the waters with a question. "Are you planning to sleep soon?""Don't mind me," Tyler replied. "Just tell your story."Rachel knew Tyler was sharp. A direct approach might make her seem overly defensive, so she decided to follow his lead instead."But don't you already know William's uncle? You've met him, right? Shouldn't you be the one telling me about him?"Tyler gazed at her calmly. "You've probably heard people say he's elusive. Have you ever seen me with him?"Rachel thought about it carefully. She really hadn't.She didn't dare make things up in front of Tyler. He might be speaking casually, but who knew what his

    After hearing what Rachel said, Tyler seemed to seriously consider it for a moment before finally agreeing with her point."I think you're right. Who knows? Maybe in the future, I'll end up with a jealous girl who overthinks everything I say, gets sensitive over my jokes, and throws a fit if I talk to another woman for too long. Yeah, thanks for the heads-up."Rachel was caught off guard by his comment. He didn't even have a shadow of a girlfriend yet, and here he was so sure that whoever he ended up with would be the jealous type.She scoffed at his display of confidence."Tyler, aren't you jumping the gun a bit? For all you know, your future girlfriend could be a submissive lady like Samantha."Rachel had actually wanted to say she might even be a total shrew, but then thought better of it.With someone like Tyler, who was already headstrong, bossy, and domineering, it was hard to imagine him going for an equally aggressive woman. That kind of match wouldn't look like a relat

    Rachel didn't say anything more."Alright then, just eat up while it's hot."Cecilia had quite an appetite, and with Wanda's cooking being so delicious, she practically wiped the table clean.She grabbed a napkin and wiped her mouth."By the way, are you planning to take over Lloyd Enterprise?"Rachel nodded. "That's the plan for now. At least, while my dad's still around. I can't let the day come when he hears that the company he built was destroyed by Yvette and Sasha.""You're right. Lloyd Enterprise is your father's legacy. What do Yvette and Sasha know, anyway? All they do is stir up nonsense. If your dad hadn't held things together these past few years, the company would've gone under already."Rachel had spent a lot of time thinking about it. Taking over the company wasn't a rash decision. It was the result of careful consideration."But it's not going to be easy to take over. You know how those two are. They're not going to hand over control of the company without a fig

    Rachel had no idea what was up with Tyler today. Was he seriously upset because they went overtime in the study?It was only ten minutes! Surely he wasn't that petty.Still, not wanting Cecilia to overthink it, Rachel shook her head."It's not that. He's probably just stressed from work. Maybe something came up at the office. I'll tell him a creepy story tonight to entertain him."Tyler suddenly cleared his throat. "No talking during meals." Rachel pouted. Who would say no talking while eating these days? Could he actually be annoyed that Cecilia was dining with them?Even if that was true, there was no need to be so cold about it.This was just plain awkward for everyone, especially for Cecilia.Still, Rachel forced herself to stay calm. She kept telling herself that right now, Tyler was her all-powerful client. She absolutely couldn't afford to piss him off.There was silence. Rachel was used to this. She had spent enough time around Tyler to know that if she didn't grow a
