Chapter 156 "Yeah," Rachel said.
Tyler lowered his gaze to Rachel's eyes. "It's nothing," he said casually. "I've always had trouble sleeping. A sandalwood sachet helps a little." Rachel suddenly recalled that tat the hospital when Tyler had asked her to sing. So that was the reason. She'd honestly thought he was messing with her. Then again, this man always had a twisted sense of humor. Who would've thought someone like him, who seemed so carefree actually struggled with sleep? The referee's voice was heard again.

Samantha noticed his displeasure and tried to defend Rachel. "Don't get the wrong idea, William. I'm sure Mr. Hunt and Rachel are just focused on winning the challenge. Look at how packed it is. Everyone's practically wrapped around someone else." William's expression hadn't looked that bad before, but after hearing Samantha say that, his expression soured even more.

"I'm fine, thanks.' " to speak up. "Rachel, do you need a hand? If you're feeling unsteady, just let Leon looked slightly disappointed but didn't say anything else.
Others had already begun falling off the platform. This challenge was no joke. It really tested one's balance.
Rachel was also struggling a bit. She stole a glance over at Cecilia's group and noticed something odd. Their group had a lot of heavier people.
Half of them hadn't even managed to get on the platform, but the rules were strict. As long as even one person in your group hadn't made it up, you lost.
Rachel could tell Cecilia's group didn't stand a chance. That only strengthened her determination to win, The referee checked the timer. "Alright! Time's up! And the winner is Group 2!" Rachel let out a sigh of relief. She released Tyler and stepped down. Cheers erupted from Group 2.
The other groups groaned in disappointment.
"I told you we should've switched to Group 2. None of you believed me. With Mr. Hunt in the mix, it was a guaranteed win!" "Do you guys know what I just saw? I swear I saw Mr. Hunt holding Ms. Lloyd by the waist!" "Whoa, are you shipping them now?" "Why not? Mr. Hunt and Ms. Lloyd totally looked good together!" "Exactly!

She walked over to Cecilia, who looked at them with open envy
"Your group got so lucky. Everyone's slim. I swear I saw Mr. Hunt Holding up half your team by himself. Tall guys really have the advantage," Cecilia said. Rachel froze. "Wait, what? You saw Mr. Hunt supporting half our group?" Cecilia nodded. "How else did you all stay up there that long? Didn't you see the other groups? Most of them hit the ground ages ago." It finally hit Rachel what Tyler meant when he said that with him there, they'd definitely win.
At the time, she'd thought he was just bragging. With so many people involved, it didn't seem likeNO QV something he could control Rachel instinctively glanced in Tyler's direction.
He was sitting off to the side like nothing had happened. He casually retrieved a gigarette from his pocket and lit it up. His long, well-defined fingers held the cigarette loosely as he tapped off the ash over the armrest.
