As soon as Tyler finished speaking, he grabbed Rachel by the wrist and prepared to lead her out.

Seeing this, Sasha couldn’t hold back any longer. “If you refuse to hand her over, then don’t blame us for what we do next!” She waved at the maids, signaling them to move in.

A group of them immediately stepped forward to surround the two.

Tyler didn’t flinch in the slightest. His gaze swept over the crowd with open contempt. “Are you sure the Lloyd family wants to go up against me?”

Yvette felt afraid when she heard that.

Tyler’s LS Enterprise had become an absolute powerhouse in Yurelia City. No one really knew what had gotten into him these past few years, but the man seemed possessed. He was constantly traveling abroad and building international business ties.

Whatever he did, it was clearly working. Lewis Enterprise used to be a rival. Now, it wasn’t even in the same league.

Yvette tugged at Sasha’s sleeve. Her mother was angry beyond reason.

“Mom, let it go. Just let her leave. Even if there is a will, it still has to go through the courts. Rachel isn’t even Dad’s biological daughter. Worst case, we’ll fight it legally. There’s no way a judge would hand the Lloyd family’s fortune over to an outsider.”

Sasha still hesitated. “But your father knows we forced him to sign the altered will. I’m afraid-”

“It’s fine. There are no cameras in the ward. No one can prove anything. Besides, he just woke up and is still groggy. Maybe he doesn’t even remember clearly. But if we get into a direct conflict with Tyler now, I fear-”

Even Sasha’s furious glare had begun to falter.

Yvette was right. If they went head-to-head with Tyler, they weren’t going to win. If he came here today just to protect Rachel, they had no chance of coming out on top. So what was the point of a direct clash?

Sasha exhaled slowly. “Fine. Consider this me showing Mr. Hunt some respect. You two can go.”

The maids immediately stepped back.

Once Tyler and Rachel were out the door, Sasha furiously stomped her foot. Her eyes were full of hatred.

“Rachel is nothing but a walking disaster. She was already gone. Why did she have to come back?”

Yvette seethed with frustration. “Why else? Of course she came back to fight for the inheritance! She’s pretending it’s all for a final goodbye, but who’s buying that?”

Sasha clenched her fists tightly. A sudden jolt of pain shot through them. She looked down and saw that one of her freshly manicured nails had snapped off. “I truly underestimated Rachel back then.”

Yvette had an even bigger concern, however. “Mom, what if she decides to stay this time? What do we do then?”

Sasha clenched her teeth. Her gaze was ice-cold. “If she really wants to stay and fight us to the finish, then we’ll finish what we started. She’s already died once, what’s a second time going to matter?”

After leaving the Lloyd family estate, Rachel glanced behind her and, seeing no one was following, let out a long sigh of relief.

“Thanks for your help today, Mr. Hunt. I’ve still got things to take care of, so I’ll be on my way,”

She turned, ready to bolt.

Tyler grabbed the back of her collar before she could take a step. His voice was deep and hoarse. “What now? Planning to use me and disappear again?”
