He walked toward Rachel, but didn’t dare to go too close. His voice was chilly. “Did you come here five years ago?”

Rachel, still engrossed in playing with Ray, didn’t think much of what William meant by that. “What?”

Something seemed to click in William’s mind, and he started mumbling to himself. “Samantha claimed that you were here, and I didn’t really believe her. There were a few times I suspected Tyler had a woman in his apartment, but I found nothing even after asking someone to look into it. And all this time, there’s never been a woman by his side.”

Rachel furrowed her brows. She didn’t expect William to remember all these details after all these years, but she naturally refused to admit it. “Have you honed your self-deception abilities to such a remarkable extent? Are you trying to make me guilty of the same thing as you are, so you can cover up the guilt and shame you’re feeling inside?”

William drew closer to Rachel. “Do you dare swear that there’s nothing between you and Tyler, and that you’ve never been to this place of his? Do you dare to swear by your father’s name?”

Rachel pursed her lips tightly. Indeed, she didn’t dare to do so and subconsciously believed in such things. The hesitation in her eyes made William even more certain of his suspicions. His eyes narrowed as he fixed his gaze on Rachel.

“Well? Do you not dare to swear? Rachel, what right do you have to accuse me? You’re…”

“Mr. Lewis, do you not have enough on your plate at work? It’s fine if you want to pursue your ex-wife, but my apartment isn’t the place for you two to seek reconciliation.”

A deep, authoritative voice sounded from the elevator.

William felt his head buzz at the mere sound of that voice. He clenched his fists and mustered up the courage to speak, emboldened by the alcohol he had consumed earlier. “Mr. Hunt, given your social status, aren’t you afraid rumors of you spending the night with a divorced woman in the same apartment will affect your reputation?”

“What reputation do I have?” Tyler walked forward and stood right next to Rachel, his tone perfunctory. “If you’re here to seek reconciliation with her, come another day. The bed in my apartment is too small and can’t fit three people.”

Rachel looked at Tyler in astonishment. What nonsense was he spouting this time? Three people in his bed? Even if it were just the two of them, she wasn’t about to share a bed with him! His words only served to confirm William’s suspicions that there was something between her and Tyler. William’s face was darker than a stormy sky.

Chapter 418

“Are you interested in her?”

Tyler’s back was facing William, who couldn’t see Tyler’s face. Even so, William could hear the displeasure in Tyler’s voice when he spoke.

“William, that’s my personal affair. I have no need to explain myself to you.”

With that, Tyler took a step forward. He sensed that William was still there, and cast him a sideways glance as he said coldly, “I’m sure you won’t want to stick around. Do you want me to chase you out, or will you leave yourself?”

Tyler made it seem as though he was letting William make a choice, but William knew that Tyler was just giving him an out. William gritted his teeth, pinning all his hopes on Rachel.

“Rachel, if you come with me, I’ll leave space for negotiation regarding your dad. You decide.”
