Chapter 271

Tyler wouldn’t stab you in the back. He would only do so in your face.

Thinking that, Rachel felt much better.

“I’m completely at your mercy here. I’m probably not of much value to you.”

“You owe me, for now. You have all the time in the world to return the favor, so no rush.”

Tyler put the empty glass down, threw off the sheets on the bed, and climbed onto it.

“You can start singing.”

Rachel glanced at her watch and saw that it was indeed very late. She switched the lights off, leaving just the bedside lamp on. She sat by the bedside and braced herself, then opened her mouth to sing.

That cheesy song by M2M, Pretty Boy.

She had completely forgotten the lyrics, but when William and Samantha were around, she searched up the lyrics on her phone and practised singing to it.

Rachel had another song prepared, but even before she was through with the first song, she could clearly make out Tyler’s steady breathing.

She paused for a few seconds to make sure that Tyler was fast asleep, then stood and left the room.

Ray was crouching at the door, and started wagging his tail upon seeing Rachel.

Rachel really wanted to go home, feeling ill at ease. She had been lying to William that she had been at Cecilia’s these few days. She was worried that he might start to doubt her.

However, this place was far too remote. It was difficult to call for a cab here, so Rachel decided to give up and bear with it.

She made her way to the guest room, switched the lights on, and realized that the bed was all made. She had been so occupied with chasing William away, she didn’t notice the furnishings in the room.

She ran her fingers over the sheets, which felt brand–new. The fabric was soft and smooth to the touch, and it immediately made her feel sleepy.

Did Tyler really have a sleep disorder? Could someone with a sleep disorder fall asleep so quickly?

He was fast asleep in a matter of minutes, even before she finished singing one song.

Rachel shook her head, stopping herself from overthinking. She tidied her things up and lay on the bed.

Meanwhile, William and Samantha were brought to a police station to have their statements taken. It wasn’t a major issue to begin with; after William informed the police of his relationship with Tyler, they did some basic verification and then released him and Samantha.

That was when Samantha found out the truth. Shocked, she looked at William in disbelief, her brows tightly knit pale with fright.

“William, does Rachel… Does she know that Mr. Hunt is your

uncle?”

William shook his head.

“No, she doesn’t. Tyler’s relationship with our family is very complicated, and his name is a taboo in the house. At the end of the day, given his skills, our family is worried about what he can do. Whatever it is, he can be like a madman through and through if he wants!”
