Rachel didn’t want anything to crop up at this critical juncture. If her grandfather were to find out that she had private dealings with Tyler, he might just break her legs.

Tyler threw Rachel a seemingly careless glance, but from the corner of her eye, she could sense his gaze resting on her for at least three to four seconds. Those few seconds were surely enough for some of them to notice something.

Tyler smirked and said in a low voice, “Singing.”

Jim was surprised to hear that. “Singing? This is my first time hearing of something like that. I’ve heard of other treatment methods, home remedies, and even needle therapy, but I’ve never heard of singing as a form of treatment. Does playing any song work?”

Tyler hummed pensively before answering, “I don’t think so. Someone has to sing it. Songs played over a speaker won’t work.”

Sasha hurriedly jumped in. “Mr. Hunt, Yvette is a pretty good singer. Why don’t you let her sing you some songs when it’s convenient for you?”

Yvette hurried over to Tyler, eagerly showing off her skills. “Yes, Mr. Hunt! I can sing very well. I even won an award for singing when I was in university. Let me sing something for you.”

With that, Yvette broke into a song, her voice clear and melodious as that of a nightingale. Rachel genuinely thought that Yvette could sing better than her.

She suddenly wished that Yvette could sing for Tyler in her place. That way, she wouldn’t exactly be breaching the contract. There shouldn’t be a problem if Yvette replaced her. That should be legitimate, especially since Yvette was her sister as much as Yvette refused to admit that.

Yvette paused after a few lines. Everyone waited for Tyler’s take with bated breath. Rachel thought Tyler felt every bit like a judge, holding everyone’s destinies in his hands. Yvette was looking anxiously and expectantly at Tyler. Would she live to regret pinning all her hopes on a man?

The only person Rachel would pin her hopes on in the future was herself.

Tyler responded very seriously, his solemn tone thickening the tension in the air. “Yes, you do sing very well.”

A flare of hope illuminated Yvette’s eyes as they lit up. “Really? In that case…”

“That’s the thing, you sing way too well. I prefer someone who sings badly.”

Tyler smirked wickedly before shooting Rachel a seductive smile. “Isn’t that so, Ms. Lloyd?”

His sudden mention of Rachel’s name made everyone turn their attention to her. Rachel felt as though she was pinned to the wall. Her mind went blank as her brain failed her. She could only stare at Tyler in a daze.

William was the first to ask Rachel a question. “What does this have to do with you?”

Rachel was at a loss for words, feeling tongue-tied. “I…”

Yvette looked displeased. “Yeah, Rachel! How did you know about Mr. Hunt’s problem?”

Chapter 277

Jim didn’t want Rachel getting too close to Tyler. He didn’t know Tyler very well, but he knew for a fact that Tyler wasn’t a simple man and probably very scheming. He considered himself a good judge of character, but Tyler was one of those whom he couldn’t quite see through.

“Rachel, what’s going on? Tell me,” he asked.
