Chapter 197

Rachel’s old friends rarely came back to visit. These past few years all her energy had been poured into William and work, so much so that she no longer had a life of her own.

If she wanted to go out for a drink, the only person she could really call was Cecilia.

But thinking of Cecilia’s current situation, Rachel could only force bitter smile. With all the drama going on in Cecilia’s family, there was no way she’d have the time or energy to come out drinking.

At this point, the only person left she could go to was Tyler.

Tyler raised an eyebrow with a faint smirk. “Didn’t think you had it in you, Rachel.”

“It’s just a drink. It’s not like I’m marching into a burning bullding”

Just then, Tim came back with two bottles of water.

Tyler took them and opened the car door before giving him an order. “You can head back.”

“Mr. Hunt, where are you headed? I can take you.”

“It’s fine. I’ll call when I’m done.”

Tim nodded. “Understood.”

After he left, Tyler handed Rachel one of the bottles. “It’s late. His wife’s on the night shift. He has to go home and take care of his child.”
