Chapter 170

Rachel followed Tammy as the latter led her somewhere increasingly desolate. By then, she started sensing that something was

wrong.

She pulled Tammy’s arm to stop her from going forward.

“Where is Cecilia? Did they really come all the way here? Let’s call them first.”

Rachel looked at her phone to dial Cecilia’s number.

Suddenly, Tammy pressed her hand.

“Ms. Lloyd, I’m sure Mr. Hunt told you all about it.”

Tammy’s voice no longer sounded as innocent as before. Instead, was as cold as ice; coupled with the chill of the wind in this desolate forest, it sent chills down Rachel’s spine.

Rachel inhaled sharply, suddenly realizing that Tammy probably had an ulterior motive in bringing her here.

She looked tense.

“You shouldn’t be asking me that, since you’ve already guessed as much.”

“You’re probably feeling all smug that Mr. Hunt rejected me,” Tammy said with a self–derisive smirk.

Rachel was confused. “What do you mean by that?”

Tammy suddenly shoved Rachel with a look of disgust on her face.

“Drop the act! You want Mr. Hunt for yourself, don’t you? You love the attention and special treatment you’re receiving from Mr. Hunt while feeling secure in your position as Mrs Lewis. Ms. Lloyd how shrewd you are!”

Rachel was stunned by the stark contrast between how Tammy looked right now compared to her usual adorable and innocent demeanor.

She really needed a lesson on how to judge one’s character.

Before, she had thought Samantha was as mild and harmless as a lamb when the latter first joined the company.

It was only after a few interactions that Rachel realized what a wolf in sheep’s clothing meant.

Rachel thought about how she spoke up for Tammy before Tyler, and really wanted to slap herself hard.

She looked coldly at the young lady before her–one she had thought was so gentle and lovely before, yet she now wished she could strangle.

“So, what do you mean? Do you see me as your rival? Do you want to pick a fight with me?”

“I just can’t stand the sight of you!” Tammy said through gritted teeth.

“If it weren’t for you, Mr. Hunt would definitely take a liking to me. Since you’re with Mr. Lewis, just stay with him and quit being such a two–timer! Who are you trying to kid with that phony innocence of yours? How are you better than I am? At the very least, my hearing is intact. Do you really think a deaf person like you is worthy of Mr. Hunt?”

Rachel truly didn’t want to count it against Tammy. Yet, Tammy insisted on using her disabilityainst her, rubbing salt into her wound.

In that case, there was no point in her trying to be nice to Tammy.

“What about you? How much better do you think you are? If you really became deaf, would you be able to figure out what people are saying just by reading their lips?” Rachel shot back.
