BuzzNovelWhen Rachel saw the message, her heart sank. Tyler really had eyes and ears everywhere. It hadn't even been that long, and he already had her number figured out.
There was no way she'd let him know he got to her, so she didn't even bother replying.
Just as she was about to put her phone away, another message popped up.
(You've got three seconds to reply, or I'll cdrag you out mysel Rachel's hand actually trembled a little.
She was seriously starting to wonder if Tyler had installed skind of tracker on the back of her head. How else could he always know exactly what she was thinking? She didn't have tto ponder. She knew all too well that if Tyler said he'd do something, he meant it.
Grabbing her phone, she rushed to type a reply, only to blank out. Suddenly, she was unsure of what to even say.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThree seconds flew by in a heartbeat.
In her panic, all she managed to send was a single punctuation mark.
That technically counted as a reply, right? She soon received a message.
[Is that your new way of texting?] Rachel nearly rolled her eyes.
[Didn't you say I had three seconds?] Tyler read the message and let out an amused scoff.
[Now you're suddenly all obedient?] Rachel wasn't in the mood to play games with him.
[Mr. Hunt, if you have something to say, please get to the point.] Jim didn't have much tleft. She needed to take care of his final wishes, and with the mess at the Lloyd family, there was still a lot to settle.
She wanted to do this right for him.
[We'll settle the score tomorrow. Letgive you a bit of advice, Rachel. Whatever schemes you're cooking up, keep them away from me. You're smart, but not as smart as you think.] Rachel smiled. She didn't take him seriously.
She just let him talk without responding.
When she realized Tyler hadn't mentioned her going over to see him tonight, she finally sighed in relief. At least her little stunt had worked. She hadn't caused this whole mess for nothing.
"W-Water-"Jim's weak voice broke through her thoughts, mumbling as he stirred in his sleep.
Rachel instantly put her phone away and stood up. “Hold on, Dad. I'll get you some." She grabbed the thermos and walked out of the room.

"William, I didn't expect that after all these years, my body still hasn't recovered." William gently held her hand. His voice was soft and reassuring. "'s okay. The doctor said it takes time. You had major hemorrhaging a few years ago. Your body's still weak. It's not something that'll fix itself overnight. Don't worry. We're still young." But Samantha gripped the report tightly, and the pitiful look in her eyes slowly gave way to rage.
If it hadn't been for Rachel back then, she never would've lost that child. Rachel was dead, so why was she still ruining her life? She took a deep breath, sniffled a little, and turned to William. “I' going to the restroom. Wait forhere." "Alright. I'm stepping out for a smoke."
As Samantha walked toward the bathroom, she passed a corner, and her steps suddenly faltered. She thought she saw something or someone.
She picked up her pace until she was practically running down the hall. By the tshe turned the corner, the figure was gone. She was unsure if her mind was playing tricks on her.
But she'd seen it clearly. That silhouette had looked just like Rachel 'Rachel. It's impossible! Isn't she dead?' Suddenly, Samantha's knees buckled, and she grabbed the wall for support.
Someone tapped on her shoulder from behind.
Samantha jumped and turned around with a gasp. The colour drained from her face, and her eyes were wide with terror.
