All Chapters of Countdown to My Divorce: Chapter 781 - Chapter 790

The moment Tyler thought of what had happened previously, he rubbed his temples in irritation.Ray seemed to understand what he said and looked at him while whining on the floor.Rachel scooped Ray up and rubbed his furry face. "Look how cute Ray is! He's definitely not going to cause trouble tonight, right?"Ray barked twice in response, as if agreeing.Rachel pressed her forehead against Ray's. "Good boy."She turned to Tyler. "Besides, he's the only dog at home. I guess it's only natural for him to feel a little lonely sometimes."Tyler suddenly realized something. "So what you're saying is, if we got him a companion, that would solve the problem?""Yeah, pretty much. At least then he probably wouldn't be clinging to us all the time."Rachel thought he was just making small talk, so she answered casually.Tyler tucked the blanket over her. Rachel instinctively grabbed the corner of it."Don't cover me that much, I'm not cold."As Tyler leaned closer to her, he caught a fa

Hearing Rachel's words, Tyler felt as if a weight had suddenly been lifted from his chest. He finally nodded."Yeah. Get some sleep. Rest well tonight. We'll need the energy to work tomorrow."Rachel raised her hand and playfully thumped his chest again. "What are you even saying?"The two of them fell asleep in each other's arms, and for the first time, Tyler slept soundly without needing a story, a song, or medication.The next morning, Tyler was jolted awake by the shrill ringing of his phone. He opened his eyes groggily, not even seeing who was calling before answering in a deep voice."What is it?""Mr. Hunt, you need to get to the office right away! There's trouble! Your aunt is standing on our company's balcony. She's threatening to jump! Every media outlet in Yurelia City is already here. If this ends with someone dying, it's going to be a disaster."Tyler shot fully awake, and his eyes snapped open."Got it."He hung up, jumped out of bed, and threw on his jacket in a

The police officers immediately tried to calm Wilma down."Ma'am, please calm down. First, you need to understand the situation. Your daughter has already been detained in another city. Once the staff there completes the paperwork, only then can she be transferred here. This takes time. Even if they agreed to send her right away, just the flight alone would take two hours. By the time she arrives, it'd be at least three."But Wilma wasn't listening at all. She kept hammering on her demand."I don't want to hear any of that! I don't care how you do it, just bring my daughter here! Forget two or three hours, even if it takes all night, I'll wait!"The officers exchanged a helpless look."Ma'am, your daughter committed a crime. She's been detained. We can't just release a detainee because you demand it. If everyone acted like this, society would be in chaos.""I don't care! If you don't let me see my daughter, I'll jump right now!"As soon as Wilma said it, she shifted like she was

"Yeah."Tyler knew full well the police couldn't really help with this. Unless they resolved what Wilma saw as the problem, this whole mess wouldn't end.He stepped forward again and tried to reason with her."Aunt Wilma, calm down. If you jump now, you'll never see Sheryn again. What she did wasn't unforgivable. At worst, she'll be inside for a year or two. It's not like she's locked away for life."Even with that, Wilma wasn't satisfied. "Don't lie to me! If you hadn't pressed charges, none of this would've happened! Rachel's fine anyway, isn't she?"Tyler repeated, "Even if I wanted to withdraw now, it's too late. The police already filed the case.""What?! You mean you can't undo it now? My daughter's definitely going to prison!" Hearing that, Wilma broke down. Holding her head in both hands, she sobbed hysterically. "This is all your fault! Tyler, you ruined my daughter, so I'll ruin you!"Before anyone could react, she leaped. Tyler's pupils dilated as he instinctively r

"Stop talking nonsense! My daughter's going to live a long life!"The veins on Wilma's neck bulged as she screeched at the top of her lungs."If you really want her to live a long life, do what I said. A video call is good enough. What more do you want? If this won't work and that won't work, then you might as well just jump. Either way, you're not going to see your daughter in person."The police nearby immediately rushed in to stop Rachel."Miss, you can't say things like that. If she actually jumps and it's seen as you egging her on, not only will you be held legally responsible, but we'll also be punished."Rachel completely ignored them and turned back to Wilma. "I've said everything I needed to say. You know the truth as well as I do, so make your choice."Right then, a video call came through. Rachel quickly held the phone out to Wilma."Your daughter's calling. Whether you answer or not is up to you."Wilma stared at the phone as it rang. After more than ten seconds of
