Countdown to My Divorce Chapter 590
The officers only gave a vague reply.“It’s hard to say right now. We have to wait until the statements and evidence are sorted.”Rachel immediately had a bad feeling. “You mean, you can’t even say yet whether Howard will be charged?”One of the officers almost laughed.“Miss, a conviction isn’t decided by what someone says. It depends on evidence and witnesses. There was no DNA from you or the suspect at the scene, and no eyewitnesses.”Rachel’s mind jumped straight to Sheryn. “I do have a witness. Sheryn was kidnapped with me. We were locked in the same place. She can testify.”The officers exchanged a confused look. “According to what we’ve heard, she said she never saw Howard assault you. Just that you argued and things got physical.”Rachel’s expression changed instantly. “What did you just say?”The other officer nodded. “We've already interviewed her. That’s exactly what she told us.”Rachel’s voice went sharp with disbelief. “No way! She was a victim, too! Howard’s fri

"You sure are high-maintenance," Rachel said.Tyler chuckled. "Next time you want to tell me you love me, just say it straight. No need to beat around the bush."Rachel pouted, but deep down, she felt strangely reassured. She couldn’t explain it herself. Howard’s situation was still unresolved, and Steven definitely wasn’t going to just let it go. But as long as Tyler was there, the weight on her heart didn’t feel quite so heavy.Still, Rachel knew she couldn’t let herself get too comfortable just because Tyler was always stepping in to shield her.She turned serious. "Tyler, when it comes to Howard, I’ll take responsibility for what I've done. You don’t need to carry this on your back. You’ve got too much at stake to get dragged into this mess. And besides, Howard got hurt because of me. It’s only right they come after me.""In that case, I should be holding Howard accountable, too. He had people beat me up so bad I almost lost a leg. That’s something I fully intend to settle wit

Rachel looked away.“Fine, you said it. If you want to shoulder everything yourself, then go right ahead.”Someone knocked on the door. Rachel instinctively looked at the door. When she saw Thomas, she gave Tyler a look.Tyler acted like he hadn’t noticed a thing and even took the chance to tease her.“Why are you winking at me? I'm not in the right state to kiss you now.”Rachel was speechless.She turned to look at Thomas. “Mr. Thomas…”Thomas walked in, leaning on his cane. The first thing he did was glare at Tyler with clear irritation.“You're pathetic! Letting a woman manipulate you like this. You’re acting like she’s the first woman you’ve ever laid eyes on."Tyler didn’t argue. He just went along with it. “Exactly. I’ve never seen a woman as adorable and beautiful as my girlfriend.”Rachel felt like she was going to die of secondhand embarrassment. Tyler, of course, was blissfully unaware and kept going.“My girlfriend knows how to make my favorite meatballs. She

“Thomas, what brings you here? You could’ve at least called before coming.”Thomas waved. “Don’t even mention it. I just found out about the kids’ situation. You know Tyler. He’s never been one for tact.”Steven cast a glance in Tyler’s direction. “Young men are always hot-blooded, and they don’t yet understand how cruel the real world is. We were all like that once.”Thomas approached Tyler, his expression grave and stern, and shot him an irritated glare.“What are you standing here for? Get back to your ward and stay put. Have them check you over from head to toe.”Tyler didn’t bother to argue with Thomas at this point. He simply chuckled. “Getting on in years and still so quick to anger. Have Josh brew you some tea to cool down.”Thomas rapped him on the backside with his cane. “Get lost, you brat!”Yale took Tyler by the arm and guided him back to his ward.Thomas pointed to the bench behind Steven. “Come, Steven, let's sit.”The two had kept in touch over the years, a

Tyler clearly had no interest in sitting here and having a heart-to-heart with Steven.Every family had its own problems, after all.He replied curtly, “That’s nothing you need to worry about. Speaking of women, are you telling me Howard can’t find a single one in all of Yurelia City that he has to latch onto mine? And to try something as vile as forcing himself on her? He’s not even embarrassed to have that dragged into the open? Or is that the kind of thing the Ziegler family teaches its men?”“Rubbish!” Steven exploded, slamming his cane against the floor. “The Ziegler family would never teach that!”“Oh? Then I guess Howard must have picked it up from the scum he runs around with. Either way, his attempted rape has already been officially filed by the police. I know your family has the power to make it disappear—but if someone decides to interfere, well, things might get a little tricky.”Tyler didn’t spell it out, but Steven was experienced enough to read between the lines.

Tyler shot Yale a look, and Yale stepped forward to help him up.When they reached the doorway, Tyler glanced back at the nearby nurse. He still felt uneasy.“Sorry, but could you take her back to her ward? Don’t let her wander around again.”The nurse could tell at once how much Tyler cared for Rachel, and she couldn’t help but smile.“Of course.”Once Tyler had left the examination room, the nurse turned to Rachel. Her tone brimmed with envy.“Ms. Lloyd, your boyfriend really dotes on you. He’s so protective. Where did you meet such a wonderful man?”Rachel honestly didn’t know how to answer. She couldn’t exactly say Tyler was her ex-husband’s uncle.The nurse's curiosity was so genuine, and her eyes full of anticipation, that Rachel couldn’t quite bring herself to brush her off.After thinking for a moment, she finally said, “Well, he used to be my mother’s student. We’ve known each other since we were kids.”The nurse’s eyes lit up. “Childhood sweethearts!”Rachel smiled
