Chapter 263

William furrowed his brows, affronted. "You want to? Grandpa would never..."

"What do you mean by that? Are you still thinking of being with her? Quit dreaming! Even if you allow it," Tyler scoffed. He leaned back into the chair, saying darkly, "Do you really think I, Tyler Hunt, need to ask for other people’s opinions before doing something?"

William stood silent.

William knew Tyler well; he was the sort of man who would do whatever he liked and not give a damn about what others thought. Sometimes, William envied him for having the ability to bear the consequences of his actions.

He, on the other hand, didn’t. He could only grow and build up his company before his grandfather would fully put the company in his hands.

William’s eyes narrowed as he turned to look at Tyler, still in doubt. "Are you really in love with Rachel?" he asked.

Tyler was such a proud and arrogant man, the golden boy of Yurelia City, favored by the heavens. Why would he bother himself with a married woman like Rachel?

Before, Grandpa tried introducing him to heiresses of powerful and influential families in Yurelia City. An alliance marriage between both families meant that Tyler would become unrivaled in Yurelia City and potentially the entire country.

Yet, Tyler chose to reject the opportunity. None of the ladies caught his fancy. How could such a picky man fancy a married woman like Rachel? William had spent seven years with her, sharing a bed and countless days and nights with her. Had Tyler gone mad?

Tyler arched a brow, the look in his deep, dark eyes unfathomable. At that moment, William was not sure what was in Tyler’s mind. "Why don’t you make a guess?" Tyler said.

William would never be able to guess. Tyler was no simpleton. Despite knowing him since their childhood, William had never been able to see through him. Or rather, no one in the Lewis family was able to see through him.

Rachel leaned against the door in the room upstairs, straining to hear William and Tyler’s conversation. She was completely shocked by what she heard.

What did Tyler say? Was he in love with her? How dare he crack such a joke! She might end up with another man after divorcing William, but it certainly wouldn’t be Tyler! He was an extremely dangerous man whom she couldn’t read. Like the wind, he comes and goes as he pleases and cannot be grasped by anyone.

Dumbfounded, Rachel didn’t notice the dog sneaking into the room. It wrapped its arms around her leg and tugged hard at the hem of her slip.

Rachel snapped back to attention and pulled her skirt back, whispering, "Let go! The time for snacks is already over. You can have more tomorrow."
