Chapter 789
Rachel lifted her chin slightly at Tyler. Her eyes were still bright but shadowed with lingering fear.
“Don’t worry, I've got this.”
Seeing her so confident, Tyler smiled. “So, you already had a plan in place, didn’t you?”

“Not exactly. There's no way they’d bring Sheryn here. It would take too long, and in this heat, your aunt would
collapse from heatstroke before she ever had the chance to jump.”
Rachel narrowed her eyes against the blazing sun overhead.
Hearing this, Tyler frowned and crouched down beside her, steadying her back with one hand.
“If she doesn’t see her daughter, she won't stop.”
“A video call counts as seeing her too, doesn’t it? She only said she wanted to see her daughter. She never
specified it had to be in person. Aside from not being able to touch her, it’s the sthing.”
Realization struck Tyler. His approving gaze lingered on her as he playfully pinched her cheek.
“Maybe | should just be your sidekick from now on. You can take care of me.”
Rachel nearly choked at that. She frantically waved her hands.
“Forget it. You say you'd be my sidekick, but let's be real, who's going to end up taking care of the other
person?”

the faintest crease. Even his bathtub couldn’t have a single hair in it.
On top of that, his wardrobe had to be spotless. With him nitpicking every detail of life, how could he possibly
play second fiddle?
In the end, he'd more likely run her ragged.
Not far away, Wilma, watching them chat, finally lost her temper. “I want to see my daughter! Can you at least
showa little respect?”
Rachel was startled by her shrill voice and snapped back to the moment. She slowly pushed herself up from the
ground.
“I'll make the call right now.”
Nearby, the police wiped sweat from their foreheads. The temperature had already shot up to 100°F, and with
the blazing sun, it felt closer to 104°F.
Wilma was still perched on the balcony under direct sunlight. She was already lightheaded and dizzy, but in her
mind, there really was no better method than threatening to jump.
Rachel quickly dialed Jerry.
“How's it going? I'm roasting out here!”

“It’s done. | was just about to call you. Hand her the phone. In one minute, she'll get the video call,” Jerry said.
“Got it.”
Rachel hung up and carefully approached Wilma, only for Wilma to stiffen instantly.
“Don’t cany closer! One step and I'll jump!”
“Relax. Listen to me. It's impossible

“No! | want to see my daughter in person. | can handle it!”
Wilma flat-out rejected the idea.
