Semua Bab Countdown to My Divorce: Bab 441 - Bab 450

Tyler didn't give Rachel any chance to ask questions. Things went on between them until way past midnight, and Rachel eventually passed out completely.Worse yet, she had only bought one condom, and after that one, who knew where he got the rest from.Rachel didn't even have the energy to care.As her eyes finally closed, she had just one thought in her mind. 'I never want to drink again. Alcohol ruins lives!'Tyler, on the other hand, showed no signs of sleepiness. Propping his chin on his elbow, he gazed at her under the soft glow of the dim light.Rachel was fast asleep, her lashes trembling gently. He could vaguely smell the scent of orange blossom from her hair.Just then, his phone started to vibrate.He glanced down. Jason was calling.'Perfect. The mastermind himself,' Tyler thought.As he prepared to get up, the woman in his arms furrowed her brows ever so slightly. Tyler gently patted her like soothing a child, and her expression relaxed again. Only then did he q

Just as Tyler was about to say something, Rachel suddenly leaned over and covered his mouth with her hand."Don't say it!"If he did, she might just want to crawl into a hole and disappear.Tyler didn't resist and let her cover his mouth. Her palm was warm and carried a faint scent of orange blossom.He raised an eyebrow at her.Rachel suddenly realized how inappropriate this must look and quickly let go of him. Her face turned bright red as she tried to change the subject."Last night, you clearly knew I mistook you for someone else. Why didn't you say anything?"Tyler gave her a sidelong glance, pulled out a coffee from the bag, took a sip, and replied in a teasing tone, "With the state you were in last night, do you really think it would've made a difference even if I said something?"Rachel wasn't completely unaware of how messed up she had been last night, and to be fair, Tyler wasn't wrong. He had been standing right in front of her, and she still managed to mistake him f

If she and Tyler were really in a proper relationship, she might've actually told him to be gentler next time.But the kind of situation they had now was already strange enough. Bringing this up now would make it seem like she was looking forward to a next time with him or something.Rachel denied it. "No, my back is just a little sore.""I told you last night that position would strain your back, but you wouldn't listen. You insisted I hang you—""Can you not bring up what happened last night again?"Rachel couldn't take it anymore and slammed the coffee mug hard on the table. Her cheeks were flushed, and her whole body felt like it was burning up.She honestly couldn't understand how Tyler could talk about that so casually—right at the breakfast table, no less! He did it like he was just chatting about the weather, as if it was the most normal thing in the world.This time, though, Tyler let it go. A faint trace of indulgence flickered in his deep-set features.Rachel probabl

Why didn't Tyler just wake her up?Only then did Tyler slowly set Rachel down. He asked calmly, "Can you walk on your own?"Even if Rachel couldn't, she would never admit it in front of Tyler. How humiliating would that be?On top of that, this man was over 6 feet 3 inches tall and exuded an air of nobility. His perfectly defined, handsome features were hard to look away from. He had been carrying her, drawing even more attention.If some nosy netizen happened to snap a picture of this moment, Rachel would be doomed.She had already been cyberbullied for five years over the whole mess with William. If she hadn't just made her comeback, who knew how much longer it would've gone on?Rachel clenched her jaws and borrowed strength from Tyler's arm to stand upright. She looked up and realized they were at the gynecology department.Her already flustered face instantly turned scarlet. She pursed her lips tightly."Why did you bring me to the hospital?"Tyler lowered his gaze and rep

"Roger that."Although it sounded ridiculous, Arsen still obeyed William's order.Just the thought that Rachel had done all this for Tyler, William felt as though something was stuck in his throat. It was bitter, suffocating, and impossible to ignore.He had been with Rachel for seven years. She clearly loved him, too. She had decided to divorce him only because of Samantha. William refused to believe that Rachel could be completely heartless toward him. He had known her since college—no one knew her better than he did.As he reached a fork in the road, he made a sharp turn a bit too fast. Samantha nearly got thrown out of her seat. Off-balance, her body slammed hard against the car door. The pain brought tears to her eyes. She bit her lower lip and looked at William with a pitiful expression."William…"William glanced at her, realizing he had been a little too rough just now. Since there weren't many cars at the moment, he reached over and rubbed her head gently to comfort
