Rachel didnโt intend to hold herself back any longer. She looked disdainfully at William, as though he were nothing but a stranger to her.
โYou look so angry. I suppose you finally know what it feels like to be framed now, donโt you, Mr. Lewis? All youโve lost is a project, but what about my dad? You know he doesnโt have much time left, but you treated him so callously! Do you know what my dad would be facing had I not thought of a way out? He would have died behind bars! Are you trying to make him die an unjust death?โ
Rachel had Williamโs collar in a death grip, a savage look on her face as she questioned him. She was raising her voice at William, and it drew the attention of many passers-by.
Cecilia was shocked by Rachelโs sudden loss of self-control. She stepped in and held Rachel back, whispering into her ear, โRachel, donโt be like this. Weโre in public, in a shopping mall. We should watch our words and behavior.โ
Rachel glared at William, releasing her pent-up anger and frustration all in one go.
William stood rooted to the ground, his face frozen and his eyes glazed over. He felt as though someone was clutching his heart, and he almost couldnโt breathe. He had been with Rachel for seven years and thought he knew her inside out. It was only until today, after seeing how crazy she could get over Jim, that William realized that he understood nothing about Rachel.
Rachel shook Williamโs hand off her and reminded him, โFrom now on, I wonโt show you any mercy. Donโt worry, this isnโt the end of things. I wonโt take all the hurt you caused me and my dad lying down. Youโd better watch your back and give it your best shot from here on, or youโll eventually be left with nothing!โ
William slowly recovered from his initial shock and pursed his lips. He shrugged his shoulders.
โRachel, arenโt you being a little too confident of yourself? Even if you have Tyler backing you up now, heโs probably only good enough to stand up for you on trivial matters. Touch Lewis Enterprise if you dare, and see if heโll help you.โ
Rachel keenly sensed something wrong with Williamโs warning. โWhat do you mean by that?โ
William said with a sneer. โOne day, youโll see that having Tyler as your pillar of support is both your fortune and misfortune.โ
With that, he turned to leave with Samantha.
Rachel stood rooted to the ground, still in a daze over what William had said. What exactly did he mean?

Cecilia approached her. โAlright now, why bother clashing with him head-on? He has the Lewis family backing him up. Even if you have Mr. Huntโs help, heโs ultimatelyโฆโ
She sighed.
Tyler was very interested in Rachel right now and treated her superbly, but men were often like that when they were smitten in the early days of courtship. Once they lost interest, they would kick the woman aside.
What Cecilia didnโt know was that Rachel was fully capable of protecting herself, given her current level of ability.
Tyler suddenly called Rachel, who quickly put a finger to her lips as a signal to Cecilia. She then swiped right to receive the call.
โIโm making my way back,โ she said.
โI saw William at the entrance. Did he make things difficult for you?โ
