Chapter 668
Tyler remained nonchalant, as if the matter didn’t bother him one bit.
“What’s wrong? You want Rachel to forget what Yvette did to her, but when I ask for the same to be done to Yvette, I’m playing you for a fool? If I remember correctly, Rachel wasn’t conscious at that time. The chances of them succeeding were close to a hundred percent. I didn’t even ask for Yvette to be
unconscious, and here you are, overreacting. You’re too much!”
Tyler’s voice was so filled with rage, it sent shivers down their spines.
Rachel looked at Tyler with tear–filled eyes. This wasn’t the first time Tyler stood up for her, but it was
different this time.
He could tell her greatest point of weakness and what she truly cared about the most.
He had voiced the words she wanted to say but knew were pointless.
Over the years, no one bothered speaking up for her. If she did try to defend herself, Gerald would berate her for being insensible. No one was willing to hear her out, and none of her so–called family had ever
reflected on their own behavior based on her words.
Tyler wrapped Rachel in his arms, domineeringly laying his claim on her.
“Let me make this clear. From now on, no one–no matter who, even if he is an elder–has the right or reason to force Rachel to do anything. If you keep forcing her and insist on dropping charges just to fulfill your wants, I have what it takes to send Yvette back to prison again.”
Gerald tried to sit up and pointed a trembling finger at Tyler.
“You…you two are heartless! You’re completely merciless to even family! No wonder your father
abandoned you and the Lewises refuse to acknowledge you as one of them, Tyler Hunt! I myself wouldn’t
want someone as cold–blooded as-”
“Grandpa! I can forget what you say about me since I’m born into this family, but Tyler isn’t! You have no
right to talk about him like that!” Rachel yelled.
“We wouldn’t want family like the Lewises, even if they wanted Tyler! Are they even worthy? Also, who says Tyler doesn’t have any family? I’m his family!”
With that, Rachel grabbed Tyler’s hand and looked comfortingly at him.
“I’ve brought the medication. Let’s head back. Don’t you have a bunch of things to do at work? I’ll go with you.”
“Sure.”
Tyler held Rachel’s hand tight, their fingers intertwining as they felt the warmth from each other’s palms.

They walked out hand–in–hand, completely ignoring the fire burning in Gerald’s eyes.
When they left the hospital, Rachel felt a load off her shoulders. She slumped on a bench and exhaled out
loud, feeling all deflated and spent.
Tyler sat next to her.
“Well, do you feel great to release all that pent–up frustration accumulated over the years?”
