Sasha was rendered speechless. She didn’t expect Rachel to suddenly bring this up.
Rachel wasn’t sure if Yvette understood what sh

getting at, but the look on Yvette’s face changed.
Sasha noticed it as well and dragged Yvette
over.

“Yvette, tell Rachel whether you like Mr. Hunt or not.
Without a second thought, Yvette blurted out, “Of course I do! He’s so handsome, who wouldn’t like him? I’m sure you can’t find a woman in the whole of Yurelia who doesn’t fancy him.”
Rachel pursed her lips. “Says who? I don’t like him.”
Tyler had a sharp tongue that even Rachel found hard to handle, not to mention Yvette with her fragile ego.
Rachel wasn’t joking–Yvette would probably break down in tears with just a few harsh words from him.
Yvette, however, clearly didn’t believe Rachel’s claim.
“Rachel, we’re family. Why bother putting up a front before me? If you don’t like Mr. Hunt, why did you sneak into his house behind William’s back? Mr. Hunt was just done with his shower. What were you two doing together?”
Yvette didn’t like Rachel to begin with. She knew they were probably treating her as a shield, calling for her to clean up their mess after they had their fun. They would always deal her the shorter end of the stick.
Rachel looked at the expression on Yvette’s face, and knew that her mind was in the gutter.
“Can you please get that out of your mind? Must a man and woman be engaged in those kinds of activities when they’re alone?”
However, Yvette was bent on getting to the bottom of things. “What were you two doing, then?”
“Discussing something!” Rachel bit out.
Yvette refused to believe her. “Oh, so you two were just discussing something and then Mr. Hunt took a shower!”
“Yvette, that’s your sister’s business. It has nothing to do with you. Mind your own business,” Jim said as he came down the stairs.
Yvette knew that her father had always cared for Rachel and always put her first in many things.
She just didn’t understand. She was supposed to be the legitimate daughter of the Lloyds. What right did Rachel have to snatch the love that belonged to her?
Yvette stomped her feet with frustration. “Dad, you’re being biased!”
“You always get the best of everything, and you even went over the limit of your credit card last month. Meanwhile, your sister has never taken a cent from our family,” Jim retorted.
Yvette was rendered speechless by his words.
Rachel’s eyes softened as she looked at her father. “Dad.”
Jim nodded. “You’re back.“.
“Yeah, back to see Mom.”
This was probably her last time visiting her mother.
Jim subconsciously glanced behind Rachel. “William didn’t come with you?”
Rachel stood stunned for a moment, but recovered quickly and said, “I didn’t tell him I was coming back.”

William was probably busy keeping Samantha company and didn’t have time for her, What was the point of forcing him?
“I called him yesterday and told him about it. He said he would come,” Jim said.
Rachel’s face turned dark with displeasure. “Dad, why did you askim to come?”
Jim could see at a glance that something was wrong. He walked downstairs and stood before Rachel.
“Are you two fighting? Is it because of Tyler? I read the report just now and saw that Tyler has admitted it himself. The misunderstanding between you and William should be resolved. What’s more, you two have been together for so many ye You two should trust each other,” he said, concerned.

Rachel naturally didn’t want her affairs with William to bother Jim What was more, she didn’t want to look like a complete joke
in front of Yvette and Sasha.
“No, he’s just been very busy working with foreign companies recently.”
Jim patted Rachel’s shoulder comfortingly.
“Talk things out between you two if there’s anything. Don’t fight. You two have been married for seven years. Maintaining a marriage for that long ain’t easy.”
Rachel knew her father was being long–winded, but she nodded obediently anyway. “Okay.”
Yvette leaned in close to Rachel, trying to glean some gossip.
“Rachel, did William ask you about being at Mr. Hunt’s house yesterday? He doesn’t even know about your mom’s tomb getting moved. You two must be fighting! If that’s really the case, I can explain things to him.”
