Chapter 251
Yale shut the car door and walked into the apartment with a document.
He placed it on Tyler’s desk. “Mr. Hunt, here’s the finalized draft you requested. It can be published tomorrow.
Tyler skimmed through the pages and nodded. “Okay. Post it after midnight tonight”
It was a piece about him and Yvette, worded carefully to suggest the Lloyd family and the Hunt family were in talks but not officially involved. This way, Rachel would he completely cleared of suspicion
Yale nodded slightly. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be heading out. M. Lloyd is still waiting outside.”
As Yale exited the apartment, he couldn’t help but wonder if Tylerally liked Rachel. Why not just say so? Why did he go through all this trouble behind the scenes?
Tyler had specifically asked him to deliver the document just so he could give Rachel a ride. Tyler had never said it outright, but after working with him for so many years, Yale low exactly what that meant.
There was a digital copy of the document. He could’ve easily emailed that instead of making a trip over. The message was clear. When Yale walked outside, he nodded politely at Rachel.
“Sorry to keep you waiting. Let’s go.”
[“Okay.”
Rachel let out a sigh of relief. It was a strolor of luck that Yale had showed up. Otherwise, she’d have had no idea how to get back After getting into the car, Yale handed her a bottle of water.
“Here.”
Rachel had been feeling a bit thirsty after the strawberry cake, but he hadn’t dared say anything while at Tyler’s place. Now, this water felt like a godsend.
She took it. “Thanks.”
After twisting the cap open, she took a few gulps. Her dry throat finally felt soothed.
Yale drove her back into the city. Cecilia was already waiting for her at Starfield Plaza. Yale pulled up outside.
Rachel got out of the car and politely thanked him.
“Thank you for the ride.”
“No need for thanks, Ms. Lloyd”
He wasn’t joking. If anything happened to Rachel under his watch, he was sure Tyler would fire him on the spot.
After watching Yale drive off, Rachel turned to find Cecilia.
Cecilia only had a vague idea of what had gone on. Rachel had barely given her any details over WhatsApp.
Rachel smiled as she walked over and naturally looped her arm through Cecilia’s “Come on, I’ll show you your new place.”
“No way. Are you guys really going to rent me that place? And at such a low price? It feels too good to be true.” Cecilia still felt like she was dreaming.
Rachel grinned, “You thought I was joking? Come on.”
The apartment William had bought wasn’t far from there. It was only a short walk away, and the area was in the business

district, making day–to–day shopping convendent.
Rachel slatted the key into the door, twisted, and opened H.

Sumlight spilled through the windows, filling the space with want. The place was bright, stylish, and decorated in a modern, minimalist style. Compared to the places Cecilia had rented before there was a world of difference.
Cecilia’s eyes widened as she looked around.
“I can’t believe I actually get to live in a place like this. Rachel, are you sure you and Mr. Lewis agreed on this?”
“Yeah. Don’t worry. I brought the lease contract. All you have to dos sign it. Each month, you’ll just transfer the rent to this account.”
Rachel handed her a slip of paper with the bank detalls.
Cecilia glanced at the rent and practically choked. “Y–You’re only charging me one grand? This place should cost at least seven grand a month!”
That too was being conservative. It was in the business district. Cecilia was only making the lowest estimate,
Rachel had other things to deal with now, and her clock was ticking
Just as Rachel got to the door, she ran right into William. She frozen place, stunned, unable to move as she just stared blankly
at him.
Even Cecilia was startled by his sudden appearance. She hadn’t expected William to be standing right outside the door
“Mr. Lewis-
William stood there with a bouquet of red roses.
There was an affectionate smile on his face as he walked up to Rachel and raised his hand to make a gesture.
