Chapter 620

Rachel said confidently, “Don’t worry. Not only do I have funds to provide, but I can even close deals for your company. As long as we have new partners coming in, there’s no fear of the company going down.”

Yale said with a troubled look in his eyes, “But Mr. Ziegler has made it clear that any company that partners with us will be pitting itself against the Zieglers.”

“That’s fine. Think about it. No matter how much other companies fear the Zieglers, their desire to earn money will outstrip their concern over offending the Zieglers.”

She had witnessed how greedy some of these people can be. They speak so self-righteously, but always end up succumbing to the temptation of money and power, sometimes to the extent of betraying their friends and allies. At times, when the temptation of money is great enough, they would even betray their own brother, not to mention allies.

The confident glint in Rachel’s eyes persuaded Yale that she knew what she was talking about. He gave her a bow.

“Ms. Lloyd, please let me thank you on behalf of Mr. Hunt. He was right to put his trust in you.”

Rachel had one request. “But Yale, you must keep this a secret for me. At least for now, don’t tell Tyler. You’ve been with him for so many years, I’m sure you know him better than I do.”

Yale nodded. “Of course.”

After Tyler discussed with the doctor, persuading and coaxing the latter with every reason he could conjure up, the doctor finally agreed to let him be discharged for the time being. However, the doctor gave his approval on one condition: Tyler had to return to the hospital once every two days to make sure that his wound didn’t become inflamed. This was something Xavier requested. Xavier knew that without this condition, Tyler wouldn’t even bother setting foot into the hospital again. The man was no different from a robot at work.

When Tyler returned to his ward, he saw Rachel seated on the bed with a laptop. Even with the needle from the IV drip still inserted in the back of one of her hands, her fingers flew across her keyboard as she typed away furiously. Tyler furrowed his brows and pressed her hand down.

Rachel looked up, her cold eyes softening at the sight of him. “You’re back. Did you manage to convince the doctor?”

“I did. He asked me to come back every two days.”

Rachel nodded approvingly at the doctor’s approach. One simply had to go hard on someone as stubborn as Tyler.

“I must write that doctor a shining recommendation. He’s such a brilliant and responsible doctor.”

Tyler wrapped an arm around Rachel’s waist and pulled her into his embrace. He looked at her trembling lashes, like butterflies flitting about in the wind.

“From where did you pick up such skills in mockery? You’re trying to say that a stubborn patient like me can only be treated by a good and responsible doctor, right?"

“Exactly my point,” Rachel admitted frankly.

Tyler’s fingers rubbed gently across her fair, dewy cheeks. “I’ll be very busy during this period. Be good, or I’ll teach you a lesson when I’m back.”

Desire roiled in the depths of his eyes. Rachel could sense it at one glance. Ever since they became intimate, it was as though the floodgates of Tyler’s desires had opened and everything had gone out of control.

“Tyler, sometimes I really want to cut your brain open and see what’s inside. Why are you still in the mood to think about such things when trouble is right at your door?”

“Appetite and lust are natural human desires. Should I let bankruptcy affect my plans to be in a relationship and get married?” Tyler explained patiently.

Rachel was tickled pink by his words. “Yes, yes, everything you say is right. It shouldn’t affect you getting married and starting a family.”

She realized that whenever she was with Tyler, even the greatest calamity seemed like nothing more than a passing hiccup. She did feel the burden on her shoulders after speaking to Yale. She was LS Enterprise’s final lifeline, after all.

She couldn’t let LS Enterprise fall. Rachel couldn’t let Tyler be the talk of the town in Yurelia City, or have people gossip about him being in this plight because of a woman.

She had to help him overcome his toughest ordeal.
