Chapter 147 Arsen looked a bit troubled. "That won't work. Someone still needs to go up there and take charge." "Let Mr. Hunt go first," William said.
Arsen was visibly shocked. His gaze instinctively darted toward Tyler. "Huh? Mr. Hunt? I really don't think that's a good idea. Someone's going to have to give a few opening remarks.
"With Mr. Hunt's personality, he'll probably go up there and say something like 'Work hard or get out. We won't even bother shaking hands on the way out.“” Everyone knew that leading a team wasn't just about power and status. It was about balance. Tyler, on the other hand, didn't even bother pretending. He hated business formalities and had no patience for small talk.
Even Arsen understood Tyler's temperament, so of course William knew it all too well.

"Mr. Hunt, we really can't keep the employees waiting. Let's send the first group ahead." "Mm. No need to wait. Let's go," Tyler said, clearly already eager to leave as he reached out and opened the car door.
Just as he was about to get in, William pressed a hand to his shoulder. “No, Mr. Hunt, I meant I'll go with the staff first. Could you wait here a bit for Rachel?" Tyler raised an eyebrow. He was clearly surprised by the request. "You wantto wait here for your wife? William, weren't you drowning in jealousy? Are you a changed man?" His sarcasm was turned up to maximum.
William's expression darkened instantly.
"Mr. Hunt, you must be joking. Sure, there were smisunderstandings before, but that's all in the past. Besides, a man like you would never be interested in another man's wife. Gerald wouldn't allow you to be with someone already married either. He won't let you be a homewrecker." Tyler didn't argue. In fact, he nodded along as if fully agreeing. "You make a fair point, Mr. Lewis. I wouldn't stoop so low as to interfere in someone else's marriage." Divorced women didn't count, of course.
Hearing that, most of William's tension melted away. "Then I'll leave her in your care. Unless you'd prefer I stay and wait, but in that case I'll have to count on you to go and take the lead at the event." Tyler waved him off. "You know I can't stand that sort of thing." William knew all too well. With their roles sorted out, William took the team and left first.
By the tRachel arrived, it was already close to half past eight. She crunning in, face flushed, sweat glistening across her forehead. She doubled over and panted heavily.
She felt like if she'd run even a few steps more, she might have passed out. Just like that, she watched the team's vehicles drive off without her.
Rachel sighed. She was still late after all.
She squatted on the ground, trying to catch her breath for just a few minutes. Suddenly, a pair of polished leather shoes appeared in front of her.

"Rachel, if you wanted to ride in my car, you could've just asked. No need e for the tic entrance."
Rachel looked up and saw Tyler towering over her with that om ever-present smirk on his lips. Even like this, she could feel the aloof arrogance in his eyes He had an untouchable king-of-the-hill energy.
She smiled a little.
As expected, Tyler never missed a chance to take a jab at her.
Propping herself up with both hands on her knees, she slowly straightened up.
