Chapter 489
Even Rachel thought that way about him, let alone the rest of Yurella City.
Jason clicked his tongue. “So you’re really coming out of hiding now? Incredible. I have to say, Rachel’s had quite an impact on you. You used to not give a damn about what people said.”
Tyler had always been the type to do whatever he pleased, completely unfazed by public opinion.
He scoffed. “It’s not the same. They’ve already turned me into some kind of urban legend. If I keep hiding, who knows what kind of wild rumors will come out next.”
Jason nodded. “Alright, alright. I’ll help fix your image tomorrow.
After hanging up, Tyler returned to the bedroom. There, curled up under the covers, was a delicate figure peacefully sleeping on his bed. In that moment, it felt like the emptiness inside him that had existed for so long was finally being filled.
The next morning, Rachel received a call from Cecilia, who said she had arrived at Lloyd Enterprise.
Rachel was about to respond when Cecilia started speaking.
“By the way, you need to check online right now! There’s news about William’s uncle. Apparently, he’s coming back to Yurelia City in a few days. Someone even posted a photo.”
Rachel was instantly wide awake. Without even replying, she grabbed her phone and opened the website.
The article was just as Cecilia had said. The photo, though taken in poor lighting, showed the back of a tall, slender man in a gray suit. He had one hand in his pocket, broad shoulders, and a narrow waist. His silhouette alone was enough to make people imagine a handsome face.
Rachel frowned and scrolled through the comments. She muttered to Cecilia, “You can’t even see his face.”
“It’s a shame, yeah, but even just this one photo has the women of Yurelia City losing their minds! Yesterday, we were still saying maybe he was some kind of freak. Well, if that’s a freak, then he’s my dream freak. I’d marry him in a heartbeat, even if he’s a psycho.”
Rachel rolled her eyes. She knew Cecilia could be serious when needed, but when she wasn’t, she was downright ridiculous.
Rachel reminded Cecilia, “Can you have a little more self–respect? You’re experienced. You’re not going to fuss over a silhouette, are you?”
Cecilia took a deep breath. “Let’s put that aside for now. We can talk about it later. I’m already outside Lloyd Enterprise.”
“Okay, I’m coming over now.”
Rachel rushed to throw on her jacket, only to realize she hadn’t brought a change of clothes.
Worse still, she vaguely remembered being the first to fall asleep last night. She pursed her lips and knocked on her forehead in frustration.
How had she dozed off again? Wasn’t she supposed to be the one putting Tyler to sleep?
If she went home now to change, she’d be late. But showing up to work in yesterday’s clothes? That didn’t feel right, either.
Coincidentally, Wanda walked in.
“Ms. Lloyd, if you’d like to change, there are clothes prepared for you in the wardrobe.”
Rachel blinked in confusion. She hadn’t brought any clothes. Where had they come from?
Wanda had clearly anticipated her question. “Last night, Mr. Hunt asked Yale to go out and buy clothes in your size. They should
all fit.”
