NovelBookRachel aired it all out.
“From this moment on, if you want to do anything to Tyler, go ahead. We'll take whatever you throw at us. But...
Think carefully. If the Ziegler family’s century-old legacy is destroyed over something this petty, isn’t that a little
shortsighted?”
It wasn’t just confidence. It was a direct provocation.
Steven actually froze for a beat.
Cecilia, who had assumed Rachel chere with sflawless plan to negotiate, was stunned. She
tugged gently at Rachel's sleeve.
“Rachel, do you even realize what you're saying?”
Rachel met her gaze, eyes steady.
“I know exactly what I'm doing, and exactly what I'm saying. You don’t need to be so shocked.”
“Impressive. The Lloyd family must be proud to have a daughter like you. I'll admit-I've never met
someone quite like you.”
For a man of his age, he had seen plenty of bold people, but none who dared to openly challenge him to
his face.
“But letbe very clear. It won't work. You think throwing out a few tough words will makeback off Tyler? |
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttold him from the start-hand you over to me, and I'd wipe the slate clean. But he refused. He'd
rather lose everything than give you up.”
Rachel straightened her back, unshaken.
“I've said what | needed to say, and I'm not changing my stance. But tell me, do you really think it's wise to keep
enabling Howard like this?”
His eyes suddenly turned razor-sharp. “What exactly are you implying, Ms. Lloyd?”
“Howard's been lawless since he was a child. Everyone in Yurelia City fears him. And why wouldn't they? With
you shielding him, he’s had free rein to do whatever he pleases. If you'd put a stop to it earlier, he wouldn't be
so out of control now-so out of control that he dares to commit kidnapping and assault.”
Her words crapid-fire, each one hitting like a blow. Steven's expression darkened with every sentence. His
breath caught for a second in anger.
“Rachel, you think you have the right to lectureabout Howard? How | raise him is none of your business!
Don’t think that just because you speak so boldly, you can escape punishment. We already have the medical
report. Tyler's in no position to protect you.”
