Chapter 548 A Matter of Respect

“I funded your education and took care of you all these years because Andy entrusted me with that responsibility. But now you’re an adult, and you can support yourself. So it’s best if we keep our distance from here on out.

“I’ll have Walter handle your matters from now on. This is also a matter of respect for my wife!”

Chandler’s words were a clear declaration that he had no romantic feelings for Rachel.

He was well aware that Rachel had been making things difficult for Meryl during this time; otherwise, Meryl wouldn’t have run away from home last night.

After returning home yesterday, Chandler reflected on the situation and concluded that the only solution was to stop having direct contact with Rachel.

Of course, this didn’t mean he would abandon her; he simply decided to let others manage Rachel’s affairs.

Meryl looked at Chandler in surprise; his words were completely unexpected.

She understood that he was trying to reassure her.

Meryl gently squeezed Chandler’s fingertips in response.

When Chandler felt her touch, his expression softened even.
