Chapter 33 Rachel immediately decided to throw out all those dresses once she got home. Just the thought of Samantha possibly wearing one of her clothes while getting it on with William made her stomach turn with disgust.
For sreason, the call was mysteriously disconnected shortly after.
Rachel laughed coldly, her eyes sharp with realization.
It was likely that Samantha or William had accidentally answered the call. If they looked at the call tlater, they would probably be relieved that Rachel was still deaf. Otherwise, she would have caught on to their affair.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs expected, less than two minutes later, William sent her a message.
[Did you call just now?] Rachel looked at the message and couldn't help but sneer. She almost wanted to recommend William pursue acting-such a waste of his talent.
Her fingers trembled slightly as she typed her reply. [Are you still coming?] [Of course. I wouldn't miss Mom's anniversary. But I still have swork to finish. The head of Dynafort Enterprise wantsfor a discussion about the previous collaboration. It'll probably take about another hour.] A cold flash flickered in Rachel's eyes. [It's okay. I brought something for Mom on your behalf. Since you're so busy, just focus on your work.] [Oh, okay. Well, tell Mom I'm sorry. I'll talk to her next year, I promise.] Rachel didn't respond. She kept telling herself that it didn't matter that it wouldn't be long before she didn't have to play this gwith William anymore.
She put her phone away, ready to leave.
But as she looked up, she found herself staring into a pair of deep, dark eyes. At first, she thought she was imagining things- but then she realized it was Tyler.
The man stood tall and composed, dressed in a perfectly tailored black suit that made him look even more serious and cold than usual. There was an unmistakable air of detachment around him, as if he were miles away from everyone else.
Tyler was holding a bouquet of carnations.
Rachel didn't immediately understand who he was here for. It wasn't until the moment hit her that she remembered.
Every year, Rachel would always see a bouquet of carnations in front of Melanie's tombstone. It would always be there, either just before or after Melanie's death anniversary.
But Melanie hadn't known many people during her life. Aside from family, no one else had ever cto visit.
Could it be...? Rachel's suspicions were soon confirmed when Tyler walked past her, stepping over the spot where she stood, and bent down to place the flowers at Melanie's grave.
His deep voice held a touch of amusement as he said, "Looks like your daughter didn't inherit your good genes at all-she's a real idiot." Rachel couldn't help but frown at his teasing. It seemed like this man couldn't go a moment without poking fun at her.
But right now, she had more important things to ask him. Shen stepped closer to him and asked, "So, F the carnations from previous years-was that from you?" "Can't you see the writing on it?" Chapter 33 "What writing?" Rachel hadn't really paid attention.
Tyler gave her an almost condescending look, as if she were a moron. He lifted the bouquet, revealing a card tucked inside. On it, the letters "TH" were clearly written. Rachel rolled her eyes. "How could anyone possibly guess that's you from this?" Two letters. Was she supposed to deduce his full nfrom just two letters?
Tyler chuckled mockingly. "Weren't you planning to use our little om connection to get ayusiness deal? Con, Ms. Lloyd. If you can't even guess my name, you don't seem all that sincere."
