Chapter 458

“Not bad. For someone’s first time, this is already pretty good,” Rachel said.

“Let me have a taste.”

Before Rachel could even finish her sentence, Tyler held the back of her head and pressed his warm lips against hers.

She didn’t even have a chance to resist. He kissed her deeply and held her close.

A moment later, he reluctantly let her go. Satisfaction was written all over his face, as if he had just tasted the perfect bowl of chicken soup.

“Mm, not bad. Tell her to make more next time.”

Rachel thought Tyler was seriously shameless. If his cousin ever found out that the chicken soup she painstakingly made all ended up in Rachel’s stomach, she would probably want to skin Rachel alive.

As soon as Rachel left Tyler’s office, people inside started gossiping.

“Holy crap, no way! I’ve never seen any woman stay that long in Mr. Hunt’s office.”

“Ms. Lyons dropped by just now, too. How come there wasn’t a fight?”

“Are you dumb? Do you think Mr. Hunt likes women fighting over him? Smart women keep it subtle and play behind the scenes.”

“True, but isn’t this woman Mr. Lewis’ ex-wife?”

“Good god! What kind of siren magic does she have? The men she wins over aren’t exactly ordinary.”

“What do we do? Now I kind of want to study her methods. That’s some serious skill.”

“Don’t look at me. How would I know?”

“She’s just really pretty, okay? Look at her. Who else in this company can match that?”

Rachel wasn’t bothered by their gossip. Back when she agreed to have this arrangement with Tyler, she already knew the road ahead wouldn’t be easy.

It was a deal and an exchange of interests. Eventually, it would end.

As for everything else, there was no point in overthinking it. She just had to do her job well.

After following Yale downstairs, Rachel was just about to get in the car when she ran into Jason. He was driving an SUV, and he pulled his sunglasses down slightly when he saw them.

“Ms. Lloyd.”

“Mr. Denzel.”

Rachel greeted him politely. She was a little surprised to see him there, but she figured he was probably here to see Tyler.

Jason casually asked, “Where are you two headed?”

Yale answered honestly, “Mr. Hunt asked me to send Ms. Lloyd home.”

“I’m heading that way, too. Yale, go ahead and take care of your work. I’ll drive Ms. Lloyd.”

Yale hesitated. “Well…”

He really wanted to say yes. After all, he had a lot on his plate. However, Rachel had a special relationship with Tyler. If anything went wrong, Tyler might actually have him skinned alive.

Rachel understood that Yale was always busy working around Tyler, so she offered helpfully, “Don’t worry, I won’t say anything. Just go handle your work.”

Hearing that, Yale finally sighed in relief. “Thank you, Ms. Lloyd.”

Rachel got into Jason’s car and buckled up. Jason, being observant, noticed something off about the way she was walking.

Thinking about how Tyler had still been texting him around midnight, he immediately put two and two together and couldn’t help but smirk.

“Tyler went to college with us. He was always great at sports, running miles and miles like it was nothing.”

Rachel hadn’t caught on to what Jason was implying. She figured he was just saying that she and Tyler went to the same college.

She just smiled politely. “Mm.”
