Chapter 76

“I didn’t say anything.”

Rachel found it hilarious. She clearly didn’t say anything, so why was William overreacting like this? Wasn’t it good that she didn’t count it against him?

William was still displeased. He twisted the watch around his wrist again and again–Rachel knew that meant he was getting frustrated.

“But your feelings are written all over your face.”

Rachel chuckled, not out of joy but mockery. “What should be doing, then?”

She knew William wanted her to be magnanimous and forgiving, and to tell him to take care of Samantha and her family. Would that satisfy him?

The displeasure on William’s face deepened at her couldn’t care–less attitude.

He lifted a hand.

“Fine, let’s not dwell on this any longer. Don’t worry, what happened with Samantha’s mother today was just an accident. It won’t happen again. Her mother is just here for a check–up and treatment. She won’t keep bothering me.”

Rachel’s face twitched uncontrollably. “Is that so?”

William pulled a chair over and sat by Rachel’s side.

“Rachel, when Mr. Hunt was here earlier, did you talk to him about signing the agreement?”

Although William was very reluctant to work with Tyler, there was no way he could start work if he didn’t cooperate with the latter.

Tyler had half the say in the project, so he could procrastinate on getting the project started. William, on the other hand, had to rush. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to answer to his grandfather.

Rachel felt more or less numb to whatever he said. All he cared about right now was work and Samantha. He didn’t give two hoots about her health.

Well, it didn’t matter.

None of this was important.

She sniffed, and relayed word–for–word what Tyler told her before he left.

“Tyler Hunt said that he doesn’t want Samantha on the project. If she stays, he won’t sign the agreement.”

William’s eyes darkened, and his usual calm and collected demeanor vanished without a trace. “Who will be in charge, if not Samantha?”

“Me,” Rachel announced without batting an eyelid.

William’s eyes turned even darker. He burst out laughing and rested both palms on her shoulders.

“Rachel, are you pulling my leg? You’re just an ordinary employee now! You can’t be put in charge of projects, got that? Samantha has to lead the project. You can only assist her.’”

Rachel’s eyebrow twitched. She felt a dull, throbbing pain on the back of her hand where the needle was fixed in place.
