Chapter 631
Rachel wasnโt the least bit afraid. She knew as long as Tyler was around, William wouldnโt dare lay a hand on her.
She smiled nonchalantly. โArenโt you just embarrassing yourself?โ
Williamโs fury boiled over, his chest heaving as he lifted his hand.
Just then, a female voice suddenly cut in.
โRachel.โ
Rachel turned around and found Yvette standing beside her, staring at her with an odd expression.
She had no interest in engaging and didnโt even spare Yvette a glance. Instead, she fixed William with a warning look.
โWilliam, if you keep causing a scene here, Iโll have no choice but to call the police.โ She turned to face Jerry. โCall the police.โ
Yvette quickly stepped forward to smooth things over. โRachel, maybe this is all just a misunderstanding. Besides, William is your ex-husband. Do you really have to threaten him with the police?โ
She subconsciously glanced inside the room.
โWhoeverโs inside, Iโm sure itโs not what it looks like. I know youโd never two-time anyone.โ
Her words sounded like she was defending Rachel, but the way she said it only planted suspicion that Rachel was cheating.
Rachel had no patience for Yvette. She was busy enough and had no intention of humoring the latter.
Still, if someone handed her an opening, she wasnโt about to let it pass.
She gave Yvette a cold look. โWhat does my love life have to do with you? Did I steal your boyfriend? And honestly, even if you wanted to cheat, itโs not like youโd have the chance.โ
The words landed like a slap.
โRachel, how can you say that? Iโve never cheated! I was just trying to remind you not to take things too far! This kind of behavior will ruin your reputation.โ
Yvetteโs soft, pitiful tone made her sound like a good sister trying to pull Rachel back from the edge.
William even chimed in on her side. โRachel, you should listen to Yvette. Sheโs right. You shouldnโt keep making the same mistakes.โ
Rachel folded her arms and scoffed. โWhat does any of this have to do with either of you? The way youโre ganging up, youโd think I threatened your livelihood or something.โ
Yvette ignored the jab, slipping closer to take Rachelโs hand as if nothing had been said.
โRachel, please donโt be like this. I know Iโve made mistakes in the past, but I never meant to hurt you. Canโt we go back to how things were? I promise Iโll never cause you trouble again. We can reconcile. I donโt care about the inheritance. I donโt want any of it. I just want to be sisters again. And donโt worry, I wonโt breathe a word of what happened today.โ
Rachel leaned against the doorframe, watching Yvetteโs performance silently without any emotion.
After a while, she spat coldly, โYvette, are you out of your mind? After everything between us, do you think we can play happy sisters again? Doesnโt that sound ridiculous even to you?โ
She yanked her hand free and gave Yvette a look of pure disgust.
Yvette froze, staring at her hand hanging awkwardly in the air. Tears rolled down her cheeks.
โRachel, you donโt have to be this cruel! I was only trying to make peace. I even promised to keep your secretโI didnโt tell Mr. Hunt you were sneaking around with another man. Besides, donโt you worry about catching something? First it was William, then Howard. Well, we donโt really know if Howard has any-โ
