Chapter 179 If her memory served her well, she knew there weren't any shops around selling beverages. One had to walk very far to buy a bottle of water, not to mention something as luxurious as hot cocoa.
"A lady from the reception brought shot cocoa up the hill and said that she had an extra cup. She saw how handsI was and offered it to me," Tyler said lazily.
Rachel didn't doubt the effect his good looks had on ladies ranging between the ages of 10 to 50. All of them would fall prey to that devilishly handsface of his.
Putting aside his sharp tongue, she did agree that Tyler did look like an exquisite masterpiece carved by the heavens. She couldn't find a single flaw in his physical appearance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis girlfriend would need to be of stout heart, though. A delicate princess spoiled by doting parents would probably burst out in tears just from being teased by him.
Just then, Rachel's phone buzzed. It was William calling.
She didn't answer the call.
At the next moment, a text popped up on her phone screen.
[Where are you?] [What is it?] Rachel really didn't want to reply to him, but on second thought, she thought it better to put up a complete act and carry it through to the end.
William texted her, [Cto room 502. I have something to ask you.] Rachel felt her heart drop with a thud.
Why did William suddenly want to talk to her? Was there something regarding Samantha that was still unresolved, or did Samantha tell him something? What frightened Rachel most was the possibility that something bad had happened to Samantha's baby. William would kill her if that happened! Rachel released her grip on the cup of cocoa as she composed herself.
[Okay.] After sending the text, she stood up from the swing. "If there's nothing else, Mr. Hunt, I'll be heading back." Rachel shook the cup of warm cocoa in her hand. “Thanks for this." She could draw a clear line between different matters.
Tyler watched her petite back figure walking away, each step firm with determination.
A figure appeared next to him. "I say, Tyler. You calledall the way here just to buy a cup of warm cocoa for that lady?" Tyler glanced coolly at him. "What, did I not pay you enough?" Shiloh didn't dare to argue with Tyler, who never failed to get his way. Even getting his hands on the moon in the sky was possible for him.
With a wave of his hand, Shiloh said, “No, but how is that lady related to you? I've never seen you put so much effort into someone before." 1/2 Chapter 170 +25 BONUS Shiloh had been friends with Tyler for many years, and knew he wasn't the sort to buy warm cocoa for a lady. If any other lady were to ask Tyler for shot cocoa, he would only say that it was filled with sugar and chemicals that would only make one grow fat and age faster.
Tyler stuck his hands in his pockets and cast Shiloh a sideways glance. "Do you have a lot of ton your hands? Should I give you swork to do at the subsidiary company?" Shiloh shuddered at Tyler's threat. "Perhaps...perhaps not." A thought suddenly cto Tyler's mind, and he rubbed the bridge of his nose. "What was Howard doing here?"
"I looked into it. Howard somehow knew that your company was having a team bonding session and made a special trip here. He even asked an employee from Lewis Enterprise." "Who did he ask?" Tyler asked flatly as he pulled out a cigarette at stuck it in his mouth.
Shiloh thought back on what he had found out. "I think her nSamantha Judd." "Samantha? Check when she started following Rachel." "Probably around one minute after saying yes to Howard." Tyler smirked, and immediately figured out what was going on.
"How scheming of Samantha, to play such games at a tlike that m knew things weren't that simple when I saw Howard." Shiloh could understand him.
"Can't blyou. Howard has his eyes on you, and he'll snatch anything you care abou That was ve SO ever for sprojects you had. He already had his doubts since the last time. If you popped up this tround, he'd never spare that lady." 2/2 Share to your friends
