Countdown to My Divorce (Rachel and William) novel Chapter 406

Rachel had heard that Logan was known for being upright and unyielding, never showing favoritism to anyone. No matter how wealthy or powerful someone was, they couldn’t exploit any loopholes with him.

“How arrogant,” one of the two men muttered under their breath.

Rachel ignored them and picked up her phone to call Logan. The call lasted barely two or three

minutes.

After hanging up, Rachel walked over to the two men.

“Your superior will be calling you shortly to explain the situation. Please continue questioning him here for now. Don’t take him away yet.”

“Are you joking? We’re acting under orders from our superior to arrest your father, and now you’re telling us not to take him in?”

“Don’t interfere with official duties, or we’ll have every right to arrest you too!”

As they spoke, the two men moved to brush past Rachel.

She had no choice but to block them. “I’m serious. Just wait two more minutes. The call is coming any moment now.”

“Step aside!”

These two were used to enforcing the law and didn’t bother listening to her. One of them reached out to push past her.

Rachel wasn’t a match for the two grown men. She stumbled back a couple of steps, losing her

balance.

But the pain she expected didn’t come. A pair of strong, steady hands caught her around the waist, stopping her from falling. A cool scent mixed with the faint aroma of tobacco washed over her. It was somehow familiar, as if she had smelled it before.

Sometimes memories just surged out of nowhere.

She quickly dismissed the thought. It couldn’t be. She and Tyler had barely interacted in the past, and she was certain it had been William who saved her from the fire. She hadn’t even known Tyler

back then.

“You okay?” Tyler asked softly.

Rachel snapped out of it. “Yeah, I’m fine.”

Tyler helped her stand upright. He then turned to the two officers who were still trying to push forward.

He reached out and shoved them back, his expression dark and unreadable. His cold, intense presence made it impossible to ignore him.

“Even if you’re here to do your job, that doesn’t give you the right to use force, especially against a

woman.”

The two enforcement officers recognized him. After all, there wasn’t a soul in Yurelia City who didn’t know who Tyler was.

“Mr. Hunt, we’ve tried reasoning with this young lady, but we’re on official duty. Please don’t make this harder for us.”
