Countdown to My Divorce (Rachel and William) novel Chapter 481

Chapter 481

Of course there’s an overtime charge. One grand per hour. Here’s the OR payment code.”

Tyler retrieved a QR payment code from his drawer and placed it on the table.

Rachel was stunned. She hadn’t expected Tyler to still keep the code. She began to feel a little suspicious.

“Don’t tell me you kept this just for me?”

Tyler rubbed his chin, as if she had just given him a great idea. “Hmm… Now that you mention it, that makes a lot of sense. Maybe I should label it as For Rachel Only.”

Rachel shrank back a little. “No need for that. One hour’s more than enough.”

She figured even going to a cafe would be cheaper than staying in Tyler’s study. There was no way it was worth one grand an hour!

Tyler gently tapped her nose with his finger before letting out a soft chuckle. “You’re way too clever. Do you think I could actually make money off you?”

Rachel knew full well that Tyler wasn’t short on cash. Just from all her recent eating sprees at his place, she had probably cost him quite a bit already.

She figured this was probably one of his weird amusements. He had too much money and too much time on his hands. Sometimes that was its own kind of curse.

Still, she had to admit, if anyone had to bear that curse, she wouldn’t mind being the one.

After Rachel walked out, Cecilia curiously came up to her.

“Come on, spill it. What exactly were you two doing in there? You were in there for so long.”

Rachel recalled Tyler’s earlier words and let out a sigh. “I almost got scammed. Come on, we’ve only got an hour.”

She pulled Cecilia toward Tyler’s study.

As soon as they stepped in, Rachel understood why Tyler had joked about charging one grand an hour.

This wasn’t just a study–it was heaven on earth.

Although she had been here a while, it was her first time setting foot inside Tyler’s study.

O

She had always been conscious of the fact that studies were usually a man’s private space. If anything confidential got leaked, she’d be the one in trouble.

Cecilia took one look around and couldn’t help but gasp.

“Oh my goodness! Is this really a study?”

Everything inside was done in cool tones, with dim lighting that still managed to feel refined.

The shelves were lined with books and expensive art pieces, all glowing under hidden LED strips like floating geometric installations. It was a loft–style setup; right across from the shelves was a dedicated rack for red wine.

Rachel glanced at some of the labels. None of them came cheap.

Cecilia, who had never seen anything like this before, instinctively reached out to touch one.

However, Rachel quickly stopped her.

“Don’t! If you break one of those bottles, that’s your entire paycheck for the next few years gone.”

Terrified by Rachel’s warning, Cecilia yanked her hand back. “Are they that expensive?”
