Chapter 59
If word were to spread, this would be ludicrous.
Rachel smirked inwardly and glanced at Samantha, who was still ting as pitiful and innocent as a lamb. The woman looked nothing like the wicked schemer she truly was. Her words and actions reininded everyone that something was going on between Rachel and Tyler.
The shareholders started discussing the matter.
“Think about it! Ever since Ms. Judd joined the company, all of Ms Lloyd’s projects were stolen from her. Even the project with Trinity Enterprise was signed under Ms. Judd’s name, and Ms. Lloyd lost her position as director. She’s the wife of the CEO of Lewis Enterprise, for goodness‘ sake! If I were her, I wouldn’t stay this company. If LS Enterprise offered me better terms, why would I stay here?”
“But if she were to do that, people would start gossiping about Mr.ewis, and how his wife and his rival… Well, it’ll be a huge scandal if word spreads.”
Rachel couldn’t help but be in awe of Samantha. From now on, she would give anyone who dared to claim that Samantha wasn’t cunning at all a huge slap.

A simple word from Samantha was sufficient to stir
up a
storm.
After some discussion, the shareholders finally raised their reques
“Mr. Lewis, I think we shouldn’t let Ms. Lloyd participate in this project for the time being, mainly because of her being too close to Mr. Hunt of LS Enterprise.”
“Yes. It’s not that we don’t trust her, but we think we should exercise more caution. This project is very important to our company, after all.”
William rubbed his temple in frustration. This issue was getting thornier by the moment.
Rachel didn’t try explaining herself and simply looked at William. She wanted to know what he thought.
Did he, like everyone, assume that she was colluding with Tyler?
William, however, remained silent.
On the other hand, Samantha spoke up with fierce indignation.
“Go ahead and pin the blame on me for the blunder, but how could you suspect Rachel? You know very well how much she did for the company! Even if it looks like she’s been getting close to Mr. Hunt, I trust that it’s nothing out of the ordinary. I saw with my own eyes Rachel leaving Mr. Hunt’s car. They were behaving perfectly normally!”
Rachel almost rolled her eyes in front of everyone.
Samantha was just making things worse, and she knew it.
“I’ve heard about Mr. Hunt’s car. Not just anyone can sit in it. I heard only his family or people he holds in high regard are
allowed in it.”
“Indeed. I heard someone say that a woman wanted to sit in his car but before her butt managed to touch the seat, Mr. Hunt
threw her out.”
Rachel knew that things were working against her favor. No one told her how important that car was to Tyler. Had she known,
she would have walked home rather than sit in that car.
