Rachel started to panic and subconsciously looked at Tyler,
“What should we do?”
“If all else fails,” Tyler said with a shrug, “we’ll just have to go back.”
Rachel’s brows knitted tightly. “What’s the point? We’ll end up being found out, anyway.”
William would surely search every nook and cranny of that room. Rachel had seen the layout of the room herself, and knew there was nowhere they could hide.
The footsteps drew nearer, and Rachel clenched her fists tighter. Her heart beat wildly, and she started breathing rapidly.
Suddenly, a phone rang,
The sound of footsteps faded along with it.
Rachel guessed that William probably received a call.
She had never wished so hard that Samantha was calling–Samantha was the only one who could make William pat everything down and rush to her side.
The caller said something that displeased William.
“I don’t have time right now! Give me a few minutes… Got it. I’ll head over right now, Wait for me at the hospital. Don’t panic.”
With that, William hung up.
Yvette didn’t expect this sudden turn of events. “William, the room is right ahead! Turn that corner and you’ll see it!”
“There’s an emergency, and I need to rush to the hospital.” William stuffed his phone in his pocket and turned to
leave.
Yvette refused to let William leave just like that. She was on the verge of getting a sweet taste of revenge!
The rich would never tolerate infidelity. What’s more, this concerned not just William himself, but also the glory and reputation of his entire family.
Whether it was true or fabricated, a simple rumor was enough to crush Rachel.
The Lewis family didn’t approve of William and Rachel’s union in the first place. As one of the most powerful and influential families in Yurelia City, why would they willingly let their son marry a deaf woman?
To rub salt in their wound, Rachel was subsequently revealed not to be biologically related to the Lloyd family. That was certainly a double–whammy for the Lewises.
If it weren’t for William going against all odds and insisting on being with Rachel at the expense of his own life, she would never have become Mrs. Lewis.
“I’ll get to the bottom of this later.”
We, ignoring Yvette’s objections.
Yvette ran in the direction William left, lifting the hem of her skirt and chasing after him. “William….!”

When the commotion along the corridor dled down with Willam and Yvette’s departure, Rachel turned to say to Tyler, “Let’s go, too.”
Worried about bumping into William and Yvette, Rachel had to leave by the back door with Tyler. When they finally safe in the car, she patted her chest and heaved a sigh of relief.

Tyler sat in the driver’s seat, pulling out his cigarette case and hunching over to bite one in his mouth. He asked darkly, “What should I say if William comes to ask me about this?”
Rachel looked at the Regal Vale Hotel through the window, ber eyes cold and pensive. “Say whatever you want.”
“I’ll tell him the truth, then,” Tyler replied with an arch of his brow.
Rachel turned back to look at him. “You’re bent on destroying me!”
“Aren’t you asking for it? The cheek of you to try to hook me up with your sister! Are you looking down on me?” His voice was dripping with displeasure.
Rachel couldn’t figure out where Tyler was going with this. She kept her silence, not knowing what to say. With a wave of her hand, she said irritably, “Forget it! Just do whatever you want.”
After all, William and Samantha never considered her feelings when they fooled around behind her back.
