NovelGoldChapter 481 Of course there's an overtcharge. One grand per hour. Here's the OR payment code." Tyler retrieved a QR payment code from his drawer and placed it on the table.
Rachel was stunned. She hadn't expected Tyler to still keep the code. She began to feel a little suspicious. "Don't tellyou kept this just for me?" Tyler rubbed his chin, as if she had just given him a great idea. "Hmm... Now that you mention it, that makes a lot of sense. Maybe I should label it as For Rachel Only." Rachel shrank back a little. "No need for that. One hour's more than enough." She figured even going to a cafe would be cheaper than staying in Tyler's study. There was no way it was worth one grand an hour! Tyler gently tapped her nose with his finger before letting out a soft chuckle. "You're way too clever. Do you think I could actually make money off you?" Rachel knew full well that Tyler wasn't short on cash. Just from all her recent eating sprees at his place, she had probably cost him quite a bit already.
She figured this was probably one of his weird amusements. He had too much money and too much ton his hands. Sometimes that was its own kind of curse.
Still, she had to admit, if anyone had to bear that curse, she wouldn't mind being the one.
After Rachel walked out, Cecilia curiously cup to her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Con, spill it. What exactly were you two doing in there? You were in there for so long." Rachel recalled Tyler's earlier words and let out a sigh. "I almost got scammed. Con, we've only got an hour." She pulled Cecilia toward Tyler's study.
As soon as they stepped in, Rachel understood why Tyler had joked about charging one grand an hour.
This wasn't just a study-it was heaven on earth.
Although she had been here a while, it was her first tsetting foot inside Tyler's study.
O She had always been conscious of the fact that studies were usually a man's private space. If anything confidential got leaked, she'd be the one in trouble.
Cecilia took one look around and couldn't help but gasp.
"Oh my goodness! Is this really a study?" Everything inside was done in cool tones, with dim lighting that still managed to feel refined.
The shelves were lined with books and expensive art pieces, all glowing under hidden LED strips like floating geometric installations. It was a loft-style setup; right across from the shelves was a dedicated rack for red wine.
Rachel glanced at sof the labels. None of them ccheap.
Cecilia, who had never seen anything like this before, instinctively reached out to touch one.
However, Rachel quickly stopped her.
"Don't! If you break one of those bottles, that's your entire paycheck for the next few years gone." Terrified by Rachel's warning, Cecilia yanked her hand back. "Are they that expensive?" Chapter 481 +15 BONUS "Con, do you really think someone like Tyler drinks cheap wine?" Rachel asked frankly.
Cecilia nodded.
"Good point." She quickly snapped out of it. "We better get started." Rachel pulled out a chair and sat down.
Once the two of them started discussing, tflew by. Before they knew it, the hour was nearly up.
Cecilia began packing up. "By the way, Rachel. I'm really worried What if William and the Lewis family find out and cafter you?" Rachel took it calmly.
"What's the point of being scared? I ח.
can't run away like I did five years ago. And besides, William and the rest of them? They've crossed the N line. If I keep backing down like before, I'd just appear weak."
Cecilia sighed. "Honestly, I still think you'd be better off siding with William's uncle. At least then you'd have sprotection. Even if William wanted to cafter you, he'd probably think twice out of respect for his uncle." Chapter 482
