Chapter 47 +25 BONUS Meanwhile , Tyler sipped on some coffee as he sat on the couch , discussing the issues he spotted in Rachel's proposal . He pointed at the data and remarked , " If you submit these figures to upper management , they might find it too costly . If you want to seize the rights to manage the project , you'll have to propose a price lower than that of Lewis Enterprise . Businessmen care only about profits . " " But I've gone through many rounds of calculations , and this is the lowest I can go , " Rachel said with furrowed brows . " How are you going to thank me if I manage to drop the figure ? " Tyler spun a pen with his fingers , the sight captivating Rachel . " I'll treat you to a meal . " She couldn't afford anything more than that . What an unscrupulous businessman he was ! She had already given him her entire proposal in exchange for nothing more than just her involvement in the design of Project Oasis . She didn't even want the dividends - this was a deal that was pure profit for Tyler . Tyler leaned back ; he put his hands behind his head , crossed his legs , and rested his feet on the coffee table . " Fine . I want to go to Moon & Barrel . " Moon & Barrel ! Ameal at that restaurant would set Rachel back by a five - figure sum . Tyler certainly didn't shy away from making such a bold request . If it weren't for his reputation , Rachel would have serious doubts about whether he was truly poor . Why else would he keep trying to take advantage of her ? Seeing the hesitation in her eyes , Tyler said with an arched brow , " What ? Can't bear to part with your money ? " Thinking how Tyler might piss off William by snatching Project Oasis from under his nose , Rachel bit the bullet and agreed to the request . " Sure , how about within the week ? " Tyler raised an eyebrow and asked teasingly , " So eager to treat me to a meal ? " Rachel couldn't be bothered to argue with him . " I might be busy and won't have time for a meal after that . " " Sure . Wait for my update , then . " Seeing that it was getting late , Rachel urged him , " Hurry up and tell me how I can lower the cost . " Overly high figures may hike up the future price per unit . Who wouldn't want higher earnings ? Tyler hooked a finger at Rachel , as if he were signaling to a dog . " Come here . " Rachel stiffened at Tyler's cue , but she decided to let it slide . Just as she was about to move , another figure beat her to it . " Woof , woof ! " The dog ran faster than her and sat before Tyler , sticking its tongue out and wagging its tail , thinking that Tyler was going to reward it with a snack . Rachel looked at how eager the dog was and , at that moment , saw a hint of herself in its eyes . Suddenly , she realized there was something wrong with Tyler's cue ... " Go away . I didn't call for you . " . Chapter 47 Tyler's gaze swept past the dog , and it shrank back in fright . Rachel kept reminding herself not to be as eager as a dog , but she just couldn't shake that feeling away . " Mr. Hunt , I'll just watch you from here . " +25 BONUS Tyler wrote down some figures with his pen , and Rachel paid close attention to his explanation . She didn't expect him to really manage to drop the figures . Rachel was still wondering at which step the figures started dropping , when the dog started barking at the entrance . She instinctively looked at the door , and her eyes widened in shock . Wasn't that William's car ? By the time she recovered from her shock , William's car was parked at the entrance . He stepped out , trudging toward the house . Rachel's heart started racing . " Why is William here ? " Tyler , on the other hand , remained as cool as a cucumber . He crossed his legs and swung them leisurely . " Are you afraid of him ? " Today's Bonus Offer
