Countdown to My Divorce

Chapter 652

Rachel had only just begun to feel a little better these past two days, and now Howard had to show up and stir everything up again.

Gerald hesitated, weighing his options. The Lloyd family was already at odds with the Ziegler family because of Rachel–if he turned Howard away at the door now, that would make the feud irreparable. Finally, he sighed and told the maid, “Let him in.”

Then, glancing at Rachel, he asked, “Do you want to step out for this?”

The maid chimed in cautiously, “Yes, Ms. Lloyd. Maybe it’s best you step aside for now. Mr. Howard isn’t someone you want to provoke.”

But Rachel never even considered leaving. Running away just wasn’t in her nature. She shook her head firmly.

“No need. If he wants to come in, let him.”

Soon, Howard was ushered inside. The moment his eyes landed on Rachel, his lips curled into that wicked, mocking smile. The malice in his gaze sent an involuntary chill down her spine.

Her instincts screamed he was here for her.

Howard, however, acted as though nothing had ever happened between them. He even had the audacity to greet her casually.

“Rachel, it’s been such a long time.”
