Countdown to My Divorce

It was Tyler.

Leon, who had been about to help Rachel up, was stunned for a second when Tyler cut in. His outstretched hand stopped moving.

Tyler looked up. “What’s the matter? Do you only help women? Don’t guys deserve a hand?”

Rachel was left speechless. Tyler really was the type who refused to take even the smallest loss.

After hesitating for a moment, Leon reluctantly helped Tyler up. Once steady, Tyler turned around and extended a hand toward Rachel.

Rachel pouted and looked at him suspiciously. There was something seriously wrong with him. Still, she reached out and took his hand. His palm was wide and his grip firm. It felt reassuring.

For a brief second, a thought appeared in Rachel’s mind.

Maybe Tyler really could help her get first place.
