As Rachel removed the bandage around Tyler's back to treat his wound, she crouched. Unknowingly, she crushed the dog biscuits while doing so.Her attention was fully on Tyler; she didn't notice Ray trying in vain to paw the biscuits out.Just as she was about to apply ointment on the wound, she felt a force coming from behind, and she fell forward. She instinctively put her arms before herself, bracing for the fall.For some reason, her palms landed on Tyler's leg, and her body landed flat on his back.Tyler remained where he was, casting her a sideways glance."You're supposed to be treating my wound. Why did you pounce on me?"Rachel's cheeks flushed red, and her mind went blank. A moment later, she recovered from her shock and explained in a panic, "I didn't mean to do that. It was the dog! It pushed me toward you."Tyler looked around, but didn't see any signs of Ray. He then turned an arched brow in Rachel's way.Rachel furrowed her brows. Gone so fast? Without any evidenc

William furrowed his brows, affronted."What do you mean by that? Are you still thinking of being with her? Quit dreaming! Even if you want to, Grandpa would never allow it."Tyler scoffed; he leaned back into the chair, saying darkly, "Do you really think I, Tyler Hunt, need to ask for other people's opinions before doing something?"William stood silent. Tyler was right. William knew Tyler well—he was the sort of man who would do whatever he liked and not give a damn about what others thought. Sometimes, William envied him for having the ability to bear the consequences of his actions.He, on the other hand, didn't.He could only grow and build up his company before his grandfather would fully put the company in his hands.William's eyes narrowed as he turned to look at Tyler, still in doubt."Are you really in love with Rachel?" he asked. Tyler was such a proud and arrogant man, the golden boy of Yurelia City, favored by the heavens. Why would he bother himself with a mar

"Mr. Hunt, we're of the opposite sex. We shouldn't have physical contact where possible. Let's keep our distance, shall we?" Samantha said sweetly. At that, Tyler let out a low chuckle.Samantha walked up the stairs, and William followed suit. This time, Tyler didn't stop them.There were only two rooms upstairs. Samantha opened the door to the first room. She was about to try the second door when Tyler's voice sounded coldly from behind, "Ms. Judd, this isn't the place for you to just barge in whenever you like. Are you sure the person you're looking for is in there?"Samantha's hand froze on the door handle. She could clearly hear the warning in Tyler's voice. Even though his tone wasn't threatening, it was enough to intimidate. Her heart started racing. At that moment, she hesitated.However, she knew Rachel was right inside. Letting this pass might spell trouble for her.In the end, Samantha decided to ignore Tyler's warning and resolutely pushed the door open. As she

Tyler nodded."So," he concluded, his voice slow, "do you mean to say that it's…my fault?"The night was quiet, save for the wind rustling the leaves on the trees, giving off an eerie vibe.A chill went down Samantha's spine.She tried to explain herself to Tyler, her voice trembling, "That…that's not what I mean, Mr. Hunt! I was indeed rash to visit here so suddenly. I'm very sorry!"Tyler waved his hand. A wicked smirk curled on his lips, and he looked like the devil in the flesh. "I'm not one to take back my words."With that, he picked up his phone and called the police."Hello, is this the police station? I have with me two people who trespassed on private property and even called a bunch of reporters to my house. Their actions have severely compromised my reputation, personal safety, and security. Please send some officers here right away, thank you."Never in William's wildest dreams did he imagine that Tyler would call the police. He pinched Samantha's arm before turnin

"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
