Countdown to My Divorce (Rachel and William) novel Chapter 518

However, there was nothing Yvette could do about it. She was no match for Rachel in every regard.

Just then, Sasha chimed in. “Rachel, that’s not right of you! Since you’ve decided to cut ties with our family, you shouldn’t be interfering with the family business.”

“I’m not interfering with the family business. I’m just telling Dad the truth. Since you have no intention of

discussing Dad’s condition, then may we never meet again. I hope you won’t ever have to beg me for help

if you encounter any trouble from here on.”

With that, Rachel turned around and walked out, her back ramrod straight.

“Wait!” Howard yelled.

Rachel turned around and shot him an aggravating smile. “Mr. Ziegler, you heard it yourself just now. I’m

no longer a daughter of the Lloyd family. I’m afraid your plan to marry me is now foiled. But…”

Rachel turned to cast a glance in Yvette’s direction.

“There is still one daughter left in the Lloyd family. You may want to consider marrying Yvette instead,

Mr. Ziegler.”

Howard spat on the floor and said unceremoniously, “Feh! Do you think anyone can enter the doors of the

Ziegler family? This woman is covered in branded designer garb. The only thing she lacks is a brand

emblazoned on her forehead! And that perfume on her is seriously choking. I can find tons of cheap

women like her in nightclubs.”

Yvette’s face flushed bright red at Howard’s assessment of her, the veins on her forehead popping.

“You…!”

“Enough!” Sasha warned, worried that Yvette might start arguing with Howard on impulse.

The Lloyds couldn’t afford to offend a bigshot like Howard.

Howard turned to smile gleefully at Rachel.

“Ms. Lloyd, I am deeply sympathetic that something so unfortunate happened to you. Don’t worry, I won’t despise you because of that. If you’re willing, we can still get engaged as planned.

“Whatever it is, you can forget about marrying Tyler. His family is extremely conservative and would never allow a sullied woman like you through their doors. My family, on the other hand, is very open- minded and worlds apart from his.”

Rachel was about to deliver a stinging rebuff to Howard when Tyler grabbed her wrist and pulled her behind him.

“Howard, do you want me to do a tally of how many women you’ve sullied? You’re just the pot calling the kettle black. Instead of pointing fingers at others here, you should go to the hospital for a thorough check- up instead.”

Tyler held Rachel’s hand as his gaze swept past everyone in the room. His towering figure stood right before her; for the first time, Rachel realized this was how it felt to be protected by another.
