Chapter 149 Tyler turned his head slightly and asked, "Why were you late today? William said he called you several times but couldn't reach you." Rachel felt that he was acting like sstrict parent questioning a kid who hadn't chthe night before. She didn't bother hiding it and just told him the truth.
"I saw a cat get hit by a car on the way here, so I took it to the vet. Luckily, it made it. The vet said if everything goes well it should be able to go hin a few days." "So, are you planning to adopt it?" Tyler's question made her pause. She actually hadn't thought that far ahead. "I don't know yet. I'll see if anyone else is willing to adopt it. If not, then yeah, I'll take it home." "You're allergic to dust, but not to cat fur?" Tyler had frowned slightly without either of them realizing it.

"Your mom mentioned it once. She said you've had that allergy since you were little." "Oh wow, sounds like my mom really told you everything." Tyler didn't deny it. "She tolda lot. She said you watched way too many teen s growing up. One time, you randomly grabbed sboy at school and declared you were gonna marry him.
"And when that boy turned you down, you draggedin front of everyone and said 'this is my future husband, and we're gonna have ten kids together-"" Before he could finish, Rachel covered his mouth. Her cheeks and ears turned red with embarrassment. She glared at him. "Stop! When did I ever say I wanted you to be my husband and have kids with you?" Tyler didn't try to remove her hand. It was soft, and he didn't seem to mind the contact. He just lifted his chin slightly, gesturing with his eyes toward the road to remind her that he was driving.
Rachel thought about the tthey had raced cars with Howard. For the sake of her own life, she decided to behave. But before pulling her hand away, she warned him.
"Don't make stuff up again." She finally let go.
Tyler gave her a sideways glance and raised an eyebrow, "You covered my mouth. That means I was right. You remember it pretty clearly, don't you?" Rachel shot him a glare. "Nope. Don't remember a thing." While they were still talking, the car reached the entrance of the estate. Tyler's parking skills were smooth and precise. There was none of that cautious, inch-by-inch reversing speople did. He parked perfectly in a single attempt.
Rachel was still staring out the window, dazed, when Tyler gave her a look as if he could read her mind.
"Don't be envious. Natural talent like this can't be taught." She snapped out of it, naturally rolling her eyes at his unshakable arcissism. The more he praised himself, the less she wanted to give him the satisfaction.

She got out of the car and looked around. She wanted to checkout what the estate Tooked like.
But the moment she glanced ahead, her gaze landed on Samantha and William. William was gently touching Samantha's still-flat belly, his eyes full of softness and a kind of affection Rachel had never seen before.
Even as an outsider, she could feel how deeply William was looking forward to the birth birth of that child. Well, he could rest easy. She was no longer a threat to his happiness.
