She was about to speak when Wanda held her back.
“Didn’t you ask me to cook you something to eat? Come with me to the kitchen and see what you’d like.”
With that, Wanda dragged Rachel away.
Tyler cupped Ray’s cheeks in his hands. “Some people are getting increasingly hot–tempered these days. We can’t afford to provoke them. We just have to give in to them, don’t we?”
Ray barked at Tyler, as though comprehending what he just said. “Woof, woof!”
Rachel followed Wanda into the kitchen, where the latter opened the fridge door.
“See if there’s anything you want to eat.”
The mere sight of the ingredients made Rachel drool. “Since you’re offering, I won’t hold back. I’d like
some prawns, soup, and steak. Can you do that?”
Wanda nodded enthusiastically. “Of course. I’ll prepare anything you want to eat.”
Rachel couldn’t stop herself from giving Wanda a huge hug. “Wanda, you’re awesome!”
Wanda grabbed the ingredients from the fridge and said to Rachel. “Ms. Lloyd, please don’t count it against Mr. Hunt. He’s probably jealous.”
Hearing that, Rachel’s eyes widened and she exclaimed, “Jealous?”
Wanda took out the prawns from the freezer to defrost them. “Yes. What’s the problem? Anyone can get jealous. Isn’t it normal?”
“I know, but I’m just surprised to hear you say that Tyler gets jealous. A man like him doesn’t seem capable of being jealous.”
Based on her understanding, even if a man like Tyler did get jealous, he would never let it show. He’d only admit it over his dead body.
“I think it’s great that he gets jealous. At least, that proves that he cares about you. It’ll be a problem if he doesn’t get jealous,” Wanda said with a smile.
Hearing Wanda’s assessment, Rachel recalled what Tyler said to her at the hospital earlier today. He wanted to be with her, and he was absolutely serious and not joking about it.
The thought sent a shiver down Rachel’s spine. It was hard to believe that Tyler was being so serious with her. His reaction wasn’t like what she understood of him.
Rachel put down the vegetables in her hand, instinctively wanting to avoid this topic.

“Wanda, I’ll go get some rest. I’ll leave the cooking to you.”
Wanda didn’t expect Rachel to be so affected, but before she could probe further, Rachel had already left
the kitchen.
Rachel sat on the couch, still troubled by Tyler’s words at the hospital.
Before she could come up with a solution for her problem, she received a text from the saleslady from the
perfumery.
