Chapter 686
Ever since Rachel came into Tyler’s life, he began to look forward to the nights. It was a different kind of feeling.
After going upstairs, Rachel was just about to head into the bathroom for a shower when Cecilia’s call came through, right on cue. Rachel deliberately stood somewhere very close to Tyler, because putting the call on speaker would’ve been too obvious. With how sharp Tyler was, he would definitely pick up on it. So instead, Rachel simply turned the volume all the way up and spoke as if everything were normal. “Cecilia, what’s wrong?”
On the other end, Cecilia’s voice sounded anxious. “Rachel, something came up. Could you come over? There’s something I need to talk to you about.” Rachel’s expression grew tense. “What happened? Tell me.” “It’s not really something I can say over the phone. Can you just come?” “Alright, wait for me at home, I’ll come right away.”
After hanging up, Rachel grabbed her coat from the sofa and said to Tyler, “You go ahead and rest. I need to run over to Cecilia’s place.” Tyler immediately replied, “I’ll go with you.” “No need. She couldn’t even say it over the phone just now—obviously because she knew you were here. If you go, it’ll only make it harder for her to talk.” “I can wait downstairs. I won’t go up,” Tyler offered as a compromise. “Really, it’s better if you don’t. If you’re worried, let Yale come with me instead,” Rachel quickly offered him an olive branch. Tyler didn’t think much of it and naturally said, “Alright.”
Without the slightest suspicion, he called Yale right away and told him to come over to the apartment. Of course, Yale arrived within ten minutes. When Tyler escorted Rachel to the door and saw Yale, he looked a little surprised.

“That fast?” “Just happened to be nearby on business,” Yale replied.
Rachel urged, “Don’t waste time, let’s go. Cecilia won’t wait forever.” Yale turned back to Tyler. “Mr. Hunt, we’ll head out then.” “Call me once it’s taken care of.” “Got it.”
Once Rachel and Yale were in the car and it had driven off, Rachel finally dared to speak. “Do you think Tyler will get suspicious?” “Probably not. I think we pulled it off pretty seamlessly.” But even as Yale said it, he didn’t sound entirely confident. Tyler’s mind was meticulous beyond measure—no matter how much one thought one knew him, he could always catch one off guard. They say time revealed a man’s true nature, but with Tyler, that didn’t seem to apply. Rachel felt a flicker of unease, but she could only push it aside for now.
“Forget it, let’s just get this done first. You have the office keys, right? We need to disable the cameras first. Otherwise, if Tyler checks tomorrow and sees we were there, it’ll all be for nothing.” “Don’t worry, Ms. Lloyd. I’ve already thought this through. Worst case, I’ll take the blame and say it was me.” Rachel had been wondering how she’d cover it up, but Yale jumped in with a solution on his own. She patted his shoulder heavily. “Yale, Tyler was right to have chosen you for the job.” Yale scratched his head in embarrassment.
“Don’t let Mr. Hunt’s cold exterior fool you. He’s actually a good person. He’s just cautious, as you must have noticed. But once he lets his guard down, you won’t regret it. He’ll always step in to help you, and he’ll never demand anything in return.” On that point, Rachel couldn’t agree more. “I think the same as you.”
When they finally arrived at LS Enterprise, Yale looked up at the company’s name and couldn’t help but ask, “Ms. Lloyd, do you know why Mr. Hunt named this company LS Enterprise?”
