Chapter 780

Author: Tina Peach
Tyler lay on her thighs. Rachel inhaled sharply at the weight on her legs.

He was…

He was heavy.

But it was only to be expected, given his towering height.

Rachel bore the weight all the way to their apartment. Despite the burden, the sight of Tyler sleeping soundly made her find it all worth it.

Tyler's sleep disorder caused him to sleep less than the normal amount. Coupled with work that kept him busy, he wasn't left with much time for rest.

When he woke up, he saw Rachel staring at him. He sat up straight, took a deep breath, and gently massaged her legs.

Rachel instinctively evaded his touch. Numbness spread across her thighs, and she clenched her fists.

The pins and needles…

Damn it.

Although she tried to remain as calm as possible, Tyler was right before her, and she could hide nothing from him.

His gaze landed on her legs. "Are they all numb?"

Rachel nodded awkwardly. "A little."

Tyler pulled her into his arms. "Why didn't you wake me up?"

Rachel leaned against his

    With that, Wilma hung up. Tyler's brows furrowed, his face dark with anger. Rachel also heard what Wilma said over the phone.She stared at Tyler for a few seconds before saying, "Why don't…we drop charges? I didn't end up getting hurt despite the act they put on."Tyler turned to look at her and said solemnly, "Rachel, tell me. What do you consider hurt? Did you forget how it felt like staring death in the face? Do you know what the doctor told me when I sent you to the hospital?"His usually calm and composed demeanor was all but gone, his emotions slipping out of control. Veins popped on his forehead; his voice sounded lower than usual, as if he was trying his damnedest to suppress his anger.Rachel could tell that Tyler was truly furious this time. She patted his shoulder gently and said comfortingly, "Alright, alright. I know you did it for my good. I was wrong, and I'm sorry for upsetting you. Then again, there's another problem. If you don't drop charges and keep Sheryn

    "It's all over. What you feared most didn't happen, right? Don't overthink. Let's pack our things and head to the airport. I don't want to stay in this horrible place a minute longer."Rachel thought about how nothing good had happened the moment they set foot on this land. Perhaps there was something cursed about this place.Tyler didn't dwell further on this issue and packed his luggage before heading to the airport with her. On their way there, Tyler received a call. He hesitated for a moment before answering it.Rachel glanced at his screen—Wilma, Sheryn's mother, was calling. She could sense a bad storm coming their way.Things were different this time. Tyler had sent Sheryn directly to the police.If Sheryn were found guilty of being the mastermind of the entire fiasco, she might face jail time or be detained.That would be a huge blow to Wilma.The moment the call went through, Tyler heard Wilma shrieking over the phone."Tyler Hunt, what are you doing? Will you only r

    They were his family, and it was hard for him to cut ties with them. To ask Tyler to give up on something like that was a difficult request. Yet, he did exactly that and extricated himself from that mess. That was what Rachel admired the most. Not everyone was capable of doing that. Tyler could understand Rachel's thinking and respected her for it. He rubbed her shoulders affectionately."I can understand. Don't worry."Rachel's furrowed brows finally unravelled. She could feel the barriers of her heart lowering. She leaned into his embrace and wrapped her arms around his waist. Taking in his scent always had the effect of calming her.A moment later, Yale walked in. This time, he was very careful not to interrupt them and instead turned around to leave. To his surprise, Rachel called out to him."Yale."Yale stopped in his tracks and turned to face Rachel. Given what had happened before, he took the initiative to explain himself. "I didn't mean to interrupt."Rachel smil

    Anne was frightened, too. In the first place, she was terrified of the notion of being in jail or even going into the police station.When Tyler spoke of calling the police, her knees went weak.She immediately grabbed the hem of his shirt with trembling hands and begged, "Tyler, I'm begging you! I foolishly listened to Sheryn, but I really meant no harm! I didn't want to harm Ms. Lloyd. I was blinded by Sheryn!"Tyler raised a hand, clearly all out of patience to hear more from her."That's quite enough. Anne Charlton, you know better than anyone else what you truly think."They were all adults—there was no need for some things to be so blatantly made clear.Anne knew full well that she had come with an ulterior motive. She also knew that Tyler liked Rachel, and that she would never win.Humans were wicked in that way, refusing to let others have what they couldn't have.Very soon, two policemen rushed over. Amazingly, it was the same two policemen who dealt with Sawyer yester

    "I didn't expect Ms. Lloyd to put her life at risk just to save me. That fact alone made me rethink whether she really was as bad as Sheryn described her to be."Sheryn, panicky and fearful, hurriedly interrupted Anne. "How long have you known her for? It's only been a few days! Don't be fooled by her!"Compared to her, Anne was very clear-headed and calm."I admit that I still had my doubts toward Ms. Lloyd just now, but when you tried to shift all the blame to me, it strengthened my faith in my own judgment. She's a good woman, but you've never treated me as a friend since the beginning. You're just using me."Sheryn no longer cared about what Anne thought of her. Indeed, Anne was just a pawn in her eyes, a tool she needed to ruin Rachel. A pity that this pawn was so useless!She had to save herself right now.Sheryn turned her attention to Tyler and said pleadingly, "Tyler, you must believe me! I had nothing to do with this. You know that Anne's jealous of Rachel. I helped h
