Cecilia wasn't really feeling guilty because of Tyler's question-what rattled her was his eyes. It felt as if she
looked into them for even a second longer, he'd drag her straight into a pit.
She quickly looked away. Her heart nearly leaped out of her chest.
Rachel, seeing Cecilia's state, feared she might slip up. She hurried forward to step between her and Tyler.

creditors and nearly dragged you into danger.”
Rachel gently patted the back of her hand. “Don’t overthink it. Go hand rest”
“Okay,”
The cab pulled away quickly.

Tyler must have sensed it. He suddenly turned around. Rachel looked away in a panic and gave Ray a few
pats on the head.
“Ray, you've been eating too much lately. | don’t think | can let you keep this up.”
“Cupstairs with me,” Tyler suddenly said to her from behind.
