Rachel felt like a bomb had just gone off in her head–loud, sudden, and all–consuming.

Everything that had happened up until now came rushing back like a fast–forward montage in a movie.

The signs had been there all along.

She couldn’t believe it, and yet, the thought had already formed in her mind, demanding to be spoken

aloud.

“So, you’re William’s uncle?”

Tyler raised an eyebrow. “Yeah.”

Suddenly, everything made sense.

William’s reaction whenever he saw Tyler–that deep, almost primal fear–wasn’t just surface–level discomfort. It came from somewhere deeper.

Rachel had known William for years. He wasn’t a coward by any stretch. If he acted like that around

Tyler, then Tyler must have done something that left a real scar. It had to be something serious enough to

leave a lasting mark on William’s psyche.

No wonder William once told her that finding Tyler could be her greatest blessing and also her worst

nightmare.

At the end of the day, blood was thicker than water. Tyler would never truly go against William.

Rachel smiled in a self–deprecating manner. Fate was playing a cruel joke on her.

She had tried so hard to escape William, only to end up tangled up again with someone from the Lewis family.

Tyler had taken his mother’s surname, so unless someone spelled it out, no one would ever guess he was part of the Lewis family.

To outsiders, Tyler and William were from two totally different worlds. Their families didn’t even seem

remotely connected.

Their companies had even fought over the same projects before. LS Enterprise and Lewis Enterprise were well–known rivals in the industry.

Tyler expected Rachel’s shocked silence. Even the maid standing nearby looked stunned when she saw

Rachel.

Wasn’t this William’s ex–wife?

The maid looked like she couldn’t quite process what she was seeing. She was told Tyler would be bringing his girlfriend home today. Why was he here with William’s ex–wife?

‘Could it be…?‘

She gasped and instinctively covered her mouth.

‘This is way too dramatic!‘

Tyler turned to her and said calmly, “Take the gifts inside. We’ll be in shortly.”

“Y–Yes, of course,” the maid stammered, quickly grabbing the gifts and disappearing through the door.

Tyler placed a hand gently on Rachel’s shoulder. With their height difference, he had to lean forward a

little. His tone was surprisingly patient and gentle.

“I wanted to tell you before, but there never seemed to be a good time. I was afraid you’d bolt. If you think back, I actually gave you hints to figure it out for yourself. You just didn’t dare think that far.”

His voice was soft.
