Tyler immediately called Yale.“Yale, go check if there’s still any evidence at the scene proving Howard assaulted and tried to rape someone, and bring Sheryn to the hospital. I have questions for her.”“Yes, sir.”After hanging up, Tyler saw Rachel looking anxious. He reached over and pinched her cheek.“What? Don’t trust your boyfriend? I can handle something like this.”Rachel shook her head. “It’s not that. I just don’t want to cause you more trouble.”Tyler pinched her cheek again, gently. “Rachel, when are you going to learn to lean on your boyfriend? You really don’t know how to enjoy being taken care of.”Rachel felt like he was about to lift her right off the bed. “Ouch.”Tyler chuckled and released her.“Now you’re acting like I hurt you on purpose. I didn’t even use any force.”Rachel had half a mind to grab her phone and check if her face was red—only to remember that Tyler still had her phone. She reached out for it.“Where’s my phone?”Tyler searched around the

Sheryn looked at Tyler with a torn expression.“Tyler, don’t push me. Rachel still has you to back her up, but what about us?”“Doing the right thing is what you should be doing. Don’t use Howard as an excuse. When his two men tried to assault you, you didn’t give in. So why suddenly act like Howard has such a hold over you now?” Tyler retorted. Sheryn felt like she was being roasted over an open flame. She knew Tyler wouldn’t actually harm her, but if she testified for Rachel, she and her mother would be in serious trouble.Besides, helping Tyler meant helping Rachel, and Sheryn wanted nothing to do with that woman. If it weren’t for Rachel, she and Tyler might have been together long ago!That thought alone sent a flash of anger surging through her chest.This time, her refusal was firm.“Sorry, Tyler. I can’t help you with this. If I do, I won’t be able to stay in Yurelia City. I hope you can understand. My mom and I aren’t like Ms. Lloyd. She has you behind her. We have n

Sheryn clenched her jaws so hard, it was a wonder they didn’t crack. Her face was pale, and she felt a sting in her nose as she stared at Howard with teary eyes.“Howard, how can you do this? We had an agreement! I’ve never once helped Rachel. I’ve always been on your side.”People thought Howard was a lazy, good-for-nothing playboy, but that didn’t mean he was stupid.Howard smirked, his gaze full of ridicule, like he was watching a cheap stage play.“Sheryn, are you actually dumb, or do you just like believing your lies? Do you think everything you do is for someone else’s good?”He leaned forward slightly, voice dripping with sarcasm.“Be honest. Are you really doing this for me? Do we even know each other like that? You just can’t stand Rachel. You think you’re beneath her, so you came running to me for some kind of justice. Hate to break it to you, but you came to the wrong person.”Howard always spoke this casually to people he didn’t like.Just when Sheryn thought this w

Sheryn headed back into the ward.Howard was lounging in bed, casually eating fruit as if he didn’t have a care in the world.Next to him, a sultry-looking woman had somehow appeared—gorgeous, with a tight dress straining over her curves.Sheryn’s nails dug deep into her palms.Everyone else was fine—Rachel was fine, and Howard was fine—yet she had lost everything.No one caught the flash of malice in her eyes, narrowing like a snake poised to lash out.She stepped up to Howard with a stern expression.“Give me 1.5 million, and I can help you get Rachel.”Howard paused mid-bite into his watermelon. He then looked up at her with a crooked, mocking smile. “You might be confused. I’m not all that interested in her anymore, but I won't let this thing slide. She's going to pay for what she did! If I can’t have her, Tyler’s not getting her either.”Hearing that, Sheryn felt even more confident.“Then you need me even more. There's no need for you to get your hands dirty or think

The moment Yale heard that, a bad feeling crept up on him. He quickly backpedaled.“No, no, that’s not necessary.”Tyler crooked a finger at him. “Come here.”For a split second, both Rachel and Yale felt like Tyler wasn’t calling a person so much as summoning a dog. The air turned awkward in an instant.Rachel jumped in to explain for him. “He’s probably just used to it. Ray doesn’t always listen, and this works better.”Yale smiled stiffly. “Is that so? Haha…”Rachel dropped her gaze, realizing that explaining only made it sound worse.Yale stepped up to Tyler’s side, leaned forward, and whispered in his ear.“It’s bad, sir. Steven has started hitting our stock hard, and every pending partner is suddenly pulling out. That’s not even the worst part. The companies we’re already working with are willing to take the penalty fees just to stop doing business with us.”Everyone knew that even if the penalty was paid, the company would still take a loss.One or two partners pulling
