PopularNovelChapter 97 But there was no way around it-if this contract wasn't signed, Rachel couldn't leave.
Even without looking, Rachel could feel Samantha and William's glares stabbing into her like needles. After Tyler pulled that move, everyone probably thought she was on his side.
Otherwise, why would he hand something this important to her instead of reviewing it himself? Rachel hesitated for a moment, then finally reached out and took the contract. Then, she braced herself as she flipped through the pages. After checking everything carefully, she looked at Tyler and said, "Mr. Hunt, I've gone through it. Everything looks fine." Tyler waved his hand. "Good. Go ahead and sign it." As soon as the contract was signed, Samantha couldn't hold it in anymore and quickly said, "I'll let you all keep talking. I need sair." William took the document and instinctively looked at Rachel. She knew exactly what that meant. But no matter what, she wasn't going to let William be the one to speak first-not with Yvette watching, ready to mock her.. So she said, "Go check on her. She's new-maybe not used to this kind of pressure." William gave a short nod. "Callwhen you're ready to leave." And with that, he walked right past her, contract in hand.
Rachel's eyes turned colder.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe picked up the drink Yvette had handed her earlier and offered it to Tyler. Her lips quirked upwards as she said, "Mr. Hunt, congratulations on securing the rights to Project Oasis," Tyler gave her a look of pure disdain. “That smile's pretty ugly-try not to use it again." Rachel's smile froze on her face.
This man was as ruthless as ever. He had said something just like that the last ttoo, but she didn't think her smile was that bad.
Still, she curled her lips again, just slightly. "Got it." She pushed the drink forward again.
Tyler took it, giving it a once-over. "This isn't poisoned, is it?" Rachel's expression twitched. She wasn't about to let that slide.
"Then don't drink it,” Rachel muttered, starting to pull the glass back.
But before she could, Tyler snatched it right out of her hand "Fine. I'll drink it-just to be polite." He raised the glass to his lips, paused for a second, then tipped it back and downed it in one go. "Hmm. Not bad. A little bitter, though." Rachel pursed her lips. "All the drinks here taste the same. How can it be a little bitter?" She was too busy trading barbs with Tyler to notice Yvette beside her, face growing more and more sour.
Tyler leaned forward slightly and held the glass toward her It really is bitter. Don't believe me? Try it yourself." Chapter 97 +25 BONUS Rachel wrinkled her nose and turned her head. "You already finished it." Tyler's lips curved into a smirk, and his voice dropped-lazy, low, and rough. When he next spoke, his voice was a husky whisper that brushed past her ear like he was speaking right next to her.
Rachel's face flushed instantly.
"What's wrong? Afraid of an indirect kiss?" Rachel's brain practically short-circuited. Her whole face was hot, and she wanted nothing more than to disappear into the floor.
How did he say stuff like that so shamelessly? And in front of Yvette, no less? If this weren't such a public setting, Rachel honestly would have punched him.
Though. She probably wouldn't dare.
In a rush to change the subject, she grabbed Yvette and showed her a little closer to him.
"Mr. Hunt, letintroduce you. This is my younger sister, Yvette, heard you're still single, right? Maybe you En. two should date." The amused look in Tyler's eyes vanished in an instant, and his gaze sharpened.
"You're trying to setup with someone?"
Rachel's stomach tightened under his stare. When she thought of her mother's grave, she forced herself to keep going.
"Yeah. My sister's pretty and comes from a good family. Maybe you could give her a chance?" Tyler crossed his arms and leaned casually back against the wall again.
"I like men." Rachel fell speechless.
