Chapter 603
Yvette didnโt hold back. She continued to provoke Rachel.
โSeriously, Rachel. If you had just been willing to marry Howard from the start, none of this wouldโve happened. Now youโve ruined the Ziegler familyโs one precious heir, and they might never have kids because of it. You think theyโre just going to let that slide?
โMr. Hunt is a stand-up guy, and Iโm sure the Ziegler family approached you first. He was just trying to protect you, which is why he clashed with them. So now, their only option is to go after him.โ
Sasha added in a sharp, accusing tone, โExactly, Rachel! You really have no sense sometimes. How could you put Mr. Hunt in this position?โ
Rachel felt her head spinning from their words. Her glare cut through them like shards of ice, freezing the air around them.
โDone talking? Good. You can leave now and take your stuff. Trash belongs in the trash can.โ
Sasha shivered and instinctively reached for Yvetteโs hand.
โYvette, letโs just go.โ
But Yvette wasnโt backing down. Anger was obvious on her face, and she clenched her jaw.
โRachel, do you really think youโre some big shot now? Back then, you acted so arrogantly! I thought being a Lloyd family heiress would make you untouchable, but one move from me and youโre right back where you started. You didnโt even appreciate the flowers I sent!โ
Rachel pursed her lips. Her voice was ice-cold, completely different from Yvetteโs fiery anger. Her calmness was so intense that just looking at her felt uncomfortable.
โDo I have to accept your flowers, Yvette? Stop acting so high and mighty. You think Iโve forgotten what you did? If youโre daring enough, I can settle this with you right nowโno hesitation.โ
Yvette didnโt take Rachel seriously. She glanced down at her hands decked in gold and diamonds. Compared to Rachelโs bare hands, she looked like she was dripping in wealth.
โHmph! Rachel, you really think your tired threats scare me?โ
โShe canโt do it, but watch me!โ
Suddenly, a voice at the door froze Yvette in place. Her face went pale, and she didnโt dare turn to see who it was.
Rachel, her voice trembling, was the first to speak.
โDad, youโre here? I thoughtโฆโ

Not long ago, she had visited Jim in the hospital. The doctors had insisted he couldnโt leave because of his health and the medication he needed. He barely had the strength to move.
She never imagined that after just a week, he could actually be out of bed.
Sasha froze, gripping her dress. She was too nervous to even look at him.
Jimโs gaze landed on Sasha as he spoke, calm but cutting.
โSasha, itโs been a while. Last time, you didnโt manage to get me, and now youโre back to mess with my daughter. Looks like being Mrs. Lloyd has gotten tiresome for you.โ
Sashaโs face went pale. Her pupils contracted.
โJim, what are you saying? Itโs all a misunderstanding!โ
She pointed frantically at the flowers on the floor and the fruit on the counter.
โSee? We even brought gifts to visit her. We just didnโt expect Rachel to misunderstand us this badly!โ
