Chapter 67

작가: Tina Peach
Samantha's face was glum.

William pursed his lips when he heard that, his eyes turning darker.

A thought suddenly came to Samantha. "William, my laptop has been crashing on me recently. Could you lend me your notebook, please?"

William hesitated. "I have a lot of documents saved on my laptop. I'm sure you'll need it for more than a day or two. Since your laptop keeps crashing, why don't you just buy a new one?"

"But I haven't received my salary for the month." Samantha lowered her head and wrung her hands anxiously.

William put away his documents. "That's not a problem. Tell me the model and brand you want, and I'll buy it for you. Take it as an encouragement for the work you've done."

"Really? But William, the laptop I'm looking at is a little expensive. It costs a few thousand dollars," Samantha said coyly.

"Come on, let's go to the mall right now and check it out."

William stood up, grabbed his jacket from the back of his chair, and left the office with Samantha.

  • Countdown to My Divorce   Chapter 274

    Sasha was rendered speechless. She didn't expect Rachel to suddenly bring this up.Rachel wasn't sure if Yvette understood what she was getting at, but the look on Yvette's face changed.Sasha noticed it as well and dragged Yvette over."Yvette, tell Rachel whether you like Mr. Hunt or not."Without a second thought, Yvette blurted out, "Of course I do! He's so handsome, who wouldn't like him? I'm sure you can't find a woman in the whole of Yurelia who doesn't fancy him."Rachel pursed her lips. "Says who? I don't like him."Tyler had a sharp tongue that even Rachel found hard to handle, not to mention Yvette with her fragile ego.Rachel wasn't joking—Yvette would probably break down in tears with just a few harsh words from him.Yvette, however, clearly didn't believe Rachel's claim."Rachel, we're family. Why bother putting up a front before me? If you don't like Mr. Hunt, why did you sneak into his house behind William's back? Mr. Hunt was just done with his shower. What we

    Tyler seemed unruffled by the update, as though it was something perfectly normal. He cracked an egg and switched the phone to loudspeaker mode."You know what to do.""Yes, sir.""Also, something major is happening with the Lloyds today…"-Rachel changed into a fresh set of clothes before heading to the Lloyds. Yvette didn't look too pleased to see her. On the other hand, there was a 180-degree change in Sasha's attitude toward her. Sasha approached Rachel and grabbed her hand with a bright smile. "Rachel, you're back! I thought you'd come late today."Rachel remained indifferent to her change of attitude. "Why would I be late for something as important as my mom coming home?"Sasha nodded profusely. "Yes, yes! They're doing the necessary preparations, and everything will be done once the ceremony is over."Rachel remained silent.Sasha knew Rachel didn't like her, even though Rachel was her preferred daughter out of the two of them. Yvette, despite being the legitimat

    Samantha soon realized something."If Rachel ended up with Mr. Hunt, and word goes out… What…what should we…?"What Samantha brought up was precisely what William was worried about. It had been a thorn in his chest all this time. It was also why he had been trying to stop Rachel from being with Tyler.He couldn't afford to be embarrassed this way—the Lewis family couldn't afford to be embarrassed this way!After leaving the police station, William and Samantha got in the car. William couldn't hold himself back from calling Rachel.Rachel texted back. [I'm at Cecilia's. We can talk tomorrow.]Before William could reply to her, she sent another text. [You went to Mr. Hunt's house today?]Her sudden question bewildered William.He couldn't possibly tell Rachel that Samantha informed him of seeing her heading to Tyler's house, which made him suspect that they were alone there. What made things worse was that they eventually found Yvette instead of Rachel.William could only text b

    Tyler wouldn't stab you in the back. He would only do so in your face.Thinking that, Rachel felt much better."I'm completely at your mercy here. I'm probably not of much value to you.""You owe me, for now. You have all the time in the world to return the favor, so no rush."Tyler put the empty glass down, threw off the sheets on the bed, and climbed onto it."You can start singing."Rachel glanced at her watch and saw that it was indeed very late. She switched the lights off, leaving just the bedside lamp on. She sat by the bedside and braced herself, then opened her mouth to sing.That cheesy song by M2M, Pretty Boy.She had completely forgotten the lyrics, but when William and Samantha were around, she searched up the lyrics on her phone and practised singing to it.Rachel had another song prepared, but even before she was through with the first song, she could clearly make out Tyler's steady breathing.She paused for a few seconds to make sure that Tyler was fast asleep

    Tyler composed his thoughts; he had a rough idea of what happened, but he was still unclear about some details.He walked leisurely to the balcony and poured himself a glass of wine. His long, svelte fingers wrapped around the stem of the glass, swirling it."Want some?"Rachel waved her hand. "No, thanks."Before, she used to drink while entertaining clients to secure William's position in Lewis Enterprise. Unless she was in a very bad mood, she would never touch alcohol. Tyler didn't force her and took a sip from his glass. The fragrance of the alcohol spread in his mouth, and the tight knot in his brows slowly unravelled."Tell me, when did you sense something amiss?"Rachel rubbed her chin pensively. "Probably when I arrived at your place. I sensed a car suddenly stopping at your place, and that's a rarity. It gets even more remote up ahead."Tyler raised the glass in his hand and arched a brow. "Very astute of you."Rachel thought of another detail. "When I came in, I th

    "Rachel, go back with me. Dad said he hasn't seen you for a long time," Yvette said immediately. Rachel naturally knew what was going on in Yvette's mind. The girl was clearly acting out of jealousy.Rachel never intended to compete with Yvette for anything. Rather, Yvette had always been the one imagining the antagonism between them.To be honest, Rachel wanted to go back and visit her father too, but she had simply too many things to attend to and was running out of time.Anyway… She hadn't been spending much time with him over the years. After her departure, Jim probably wouldn't find it hard to get used to.He had Yvette by his side, after all.Rachel patted Yvette's shoulder. "Go home by yourself. I have something else to attend to."Yvette looked displeased.Taking in the displeasure on Yvette's face, Rachel went on, "You should be content. I called you over just now and executed the plan just to fulfill your wish. Oh, yes—tell Grandpa that I've done as you all wanted. P
