Vicky never had such thoughts and felt that Tyler was rather self-aware.Even if she refused to take anything of his, she would struggle to escape him. If she accepted anything from him, it would be impossible to leave him, especially when she was accepting the share of his company.She shot him a resigned look. "You know that's not what I mean.""Then sign it," he insisted."Tyler...""Once you sign these, those stubborn old men in the office will have no reason to stop you from coming to work with me."Vicky's gaze widened. "Is this to give me a legitimate reason to be at the company and shut them up?"Tyler's gaze shifted elsewhere. "No."Vicky looked at him questioningly.Whenever someone would give their spouse a house, a car, and shares with one's company, it was to make them feel secure. Tyler's reasons for doing so, on the other hand, were merely so that Vicky could keep going to work with him.Vicky felt utterly speechless by his unique way of thinking.Tyler looked
After the waiter brought over an extra set of utensils, they started ordering.The tension in the air was evident ever since Tyler arrived. Even Noah and Aurora, who were upset with one another, stopped arguing.Vicky held the menu and turned to Tyler. "What do you feel like having?"He glanced at the menu and said, "I don't remember anything."Vicky and Tyler had been to this restaurant several times before, so she ordered a few dishes that Tyler used to like. As they ate, the others occasionally exchanged a few words, but most of the time, silence filled the air.Unlike Harvey, Tyler's aura was commanding, making everyone feel somewhat restrained. Unaware of their reaction, Tyler calmly served Vicky some dishes on her plate. "You said you were hungry just now. Have some more."This simple action attracted the others' attention. With the exception of Noah, few had seen how Vicky and Tyler interacted on a regular basis.Tyler was known for his cold demeanor, and rumors about the
Harvey narrowed his eyes darkly and smiled. "I'm honored that you still care so much about me, even though you don't remember anything."Tyler remained composed and said, "You've helped Vicky so much that it's my duty to care about you." He lowered his gaze at Vicky. "Right, Vicky?"Vicky felt chills down her spine and swallowed. "Sure."Tyler's melodious voice carried a hint of curiosity. "Why didn't you mention that Mister Sparks will be here to me?"Vicky's forehead broke into a thin layer of cold sweat. She had not forgotten the incident when Tyler followed her to the coffee shop and confronted Harvey with a knife. Furthermore, she did not expect that Harvey would show up today.Avoiding his gaze, Vicky replied, "I... I didn't think..."Tyler's tone softened. "Harvey is your friend, so that means he's my friend too. If you had told me earlier, I could've prepared a gift to greet him."Given Tyler's history of dealing with Harvey, Vicky was not surprised that Tyler resorted t
The gifts Cece and Jennifer received were rather normal: tickets to the international fashion week.The two cheered."Oh my god, it's the international fashion week in Molivia that only happens every four years!""I heard that the tickets were sold out within one minute. I tried asking all my acquaintances but couldn't get my hands on one!" Jennifer added.Rumor had it that someone even offered hundreds of thousands for one ticket and still failed to obtain one.They turned to Tyler and said earnestly, "We really like this gift, Mister Hart."Vicky's gaze fell on the tickets in Jennifer and Cece's hands longingly. For a fashion designer, being part of such a high-level fashion week exhibition was a dream come true.When the tickets were released, she was busy taking care of Tyler at the hospital and had no time to grab them or pay attention. Even if she tried, getting these tickets was no easy task due to their high demand."I still have two tickets," Tyler whispered into her e
The room instantly erupted into chaos, and it took a long time for everyone to capture the two cats.Strangely, though the cats fought fiercely, they seemed friendly once they were separated and even clung to their respective owners, rubbing their heads against their owners.If the cat was fierce and ill-tempered, Aurora might not accept it, but no one could refuse a cat that was fierce only to others."Meow!" The cat batted its eyes and stared intently at Aurora as though begging Aurora to seek revenge on its behalf.Aurora's heart instantly melted.Aurora lifted her head and looked coldly at Noah. "Noah, shouldn't you apologize? Your cat scratched a few spots of fur out of my cat."Noah's cat was particularly affectionate and was kneading him with its soft paws. Initially, Noah had been cautious about the gift Tyler gave him but was surprisingly touched by the gift. Even though he knew Tyler had ulterior motives, he could not bring himself to reject the present since he was a c
"You are crazy!""So are you!"Aurora and Noah instantly forgot everyone else and started scorning each other.Vicky stared dazedly at them, finding it hard to believe that one was supposed to be a famously talented bachelor, while the other was supposed to be an elegant, noble lady. The two had cast all concern about their images aside and resorted to barking insults that hardly made sense.Cece pinched the bridge of her nose. "It's starting again."Jennifer sighed. "I guess we won't be able to talk this out today as well."The conflict between Noah and Aurora did not ease with Vicky's arrival. Instead, it escalated as their two cats fought.The group decided to temporarily end the dinner and let both of them cool down before discussing the matter again next time.As they left the restaurant, Cece said, "Vicky, Jennifer and I are heading in the same direction as Aurora, so we'll head back together."Vicky nodded and then turned her attention to Harvey and Noah."Since Noah i
"It seems that you've seen some of Tyler's tricks," Harvey commented.Noah smiled and replied, "I don't think you took the trouble of driving me home just to inquire about Tyler's tricks, did you?"Harvey's gaze deepened slightly.Yes, he only offered to send Noah home as an excuse to pry for more information. What surprised him was that Noah, who appeared carefree and immature in his quarrels, was actually astute and not to be underestimated.Nonetheless, it made sense. As a scion of a prominent family, Noah would not have survived if he was empty-headed.In the dim light, the scenery outside the window rushed past. The street lamps painted scattered patterns of light and shadow inside the car."Do you think Tyler's really lost his memory?" Harvey asked.For a moment, Noah's hand stilled, and he nonchalantly deflected the question. "What do you think, Harvey?""From his behavior today, it doesn't seem very likely," Harvey replied."In that case, do you think Vicky knows?" Noa
Vicky accompanied Tyler to work as she usually would.One day, while Tyler was in a meeting, Vicky looked up information about depression and dissociative identity disorder online. She was so focused that when her phone rang, she continued to look at the screen while answering absent-mindedly."How have you been, Vicky?" came a kind-sounding voice.Vicky's eyes focused upon hearing the voice. "Old Mister Hart?"Old Mister Hart had not contacted her since she left the Harts' mansion."Next weekend is Orion's birthday. How about you and Tyler drop by if you're free?"Vicky frowned when she heard Orion's name. He and Valencia had hurt Tyler immensely because of Lincoln. The worst was when they arranged for Tyler to undergo shock therapy under the guise of treating Tyler. Everyone, however, knew they had an ulterior motive."Tyler's memory loss has caused a lot of fuss in the family. He's still a Hart, so he needs to attend his father's birthday celebration," replied Old Mister Hart
