Just as Tyler was about to say something, Rachel suddenly leaned over and covered his mouth with her hand.

“Don’t say it!”

If he did, she might just want to crawl into a hole and disappear.

Tyler didn’t resist and let her cover his mouth. Her palin was warm and carried a faint scent of orange blossom.

He raised an eyebrow at her.

Rachel suddenly realized how inappropriate this must look and quickly let go of him. Her face turned bright red as she tried to change the subject.

“Last night, you clearly knew I mistook you for someone else. Why didn’t you say anything?”

Tyler gave her a sidelong glance, pulled out a coffee from the bag, took a sip, and replied in a teasing tone, With the state you were in last night, do you really think it would’ve made a difference even if I said something?”

Rachel wasn’t completely unaware of how messed up she had been last night, and to be fair, Tyler wasn’t wrong. He had been standing right in front of her, and she still managed to mistake him for someone else.

It wasn’t until her mind had cleared up a bit, and he called her name, that she finally snapped out of it. Otherwise, even staring at him a little longer wouldn’t have helped.

She wasn’t exaggerating. The two bottles of liquor had ridiculously high alcohol content. If it hadn’t been for Jim…

The moment she thought of Jim, something clicked in her mind.

She looked up at Tyler. “I need to find Jason. He’s the only one who can help me.”

Tyler took a bite of his sandwich. His eyes were deep like the ocean, and he tapped his fingers on the table in an irritable manner.

“Explain this to me properly. What do you mean that he’s the only one who can help you?”

Rachel didn’t plan on hiding anything from him.

“He’s William’s uncle. Only he has enough authority over William. I already told you the gist of this last night, didn’t I? We need William to withdraw the charges against my father. If Jason testifies for me and uses his connections to smooth things over with the people up top, and I can find solid evidence, then we have a real chance at clearing my dad’s name.”

Tyler zeroed in on the most important part of her explanation.

“So you came to the party last night just because Jason is William’s uncle?”

Rachel felt a little thirsty. Since Tyler had already told Yale to buy her a meal, she didn’t bother being polite. There was no point wasting it.

She picked up the untouched coffee on the table and was just about to insert the straw when Tyler suddenly

As she held the straw, she stared at him strangely. Was this man seriously so stingy that he wouldn’t even let her have a coffee?

Tyler saw right through her thoughts and pushed his sandwich toward her.

“Eat something before you drink coffee. Don’t you have chronic stomach problems?”
