Sasha never expected Vicky to beat her in public and failed to dodge.

Thud!

The loud thud stunned everyone at the scene.

Blood rolled down Sasha's head, and she immediately fainted.

"Sasha!" shrieked Sheila. She forgot about the injury on her leg and instinctively got up, wanting to help Sasha up. She was so quick that her assistant could not stop her in time.

As a result, Sheila slammed onto the ground where there was shattered glass all around. Her skin instantly tore and bled.

"Sheila!"

Maggie hurried over to help her up, but as Sheila could not move her leg and was injured once again, Maggie did not have the strength to lift her off the ground. After all, Maggie, despite having a strong, decisive demeanor, was a woman in her thirties with short hair.

She thus turned to look at Tyler for help. "Mister Hart, can you please help us?"

He stood where he was for a few moments before lifting Sheila off the ground. "Call someone over to clean the glass off the ground and take Sash

    Tyler merely ignored Sasha and knocked on the door of Vicky's ward before stepping inside.Vicky opened her eyes and leaned against the bed as she watched the two enter.Sheila was still in her wheelchair, and she had put ointment on the wounds on her arms and legs. It was a sorry sight.Vicky merely glanced at the wounds for a second before looking away, and Tyler frowned at how little she seemed to care."Is there anything you wish to say for yourself, Vicky?"She pressed her back against the cold headboard and shot them a cold look. "What should I say? You took the liberty to say everything there was to say, didn't you?"Sheila stared at her. "So you're admitting what you did, then?"Vicky did not bother to look at them. "Whatever you say."Sheila continued, "Since you nearly drowned, I'm sure that you're physically and mentally worn out, Ms. Shaw, so... I'll speak on Sasha's behalf and forgive you for hitting her. However, she's now injured, and I hope that you can apologiz

    Just then, someone knocked on the door to Vicky's room again, and a slender figure got in with a thermal lunch box in his hand."Vicky, you haven't eaten, right? I brought you some soup..."Sebastian froze when he saw Sheila and Tyler inside the room."Why are you here?" asked Sebastian. At the thought of Sasha who was standing outside the room, he caught on. "Are you here to confront Vicky?" He sneered at Tyler. "Tyler Hart, even if you don't love Vicky, you don't have to team up with outsiders to bully your wife, do you? Can't you see that she's sick in bed right now?""So, you do know that she's my wife," Tyler uttered pointedly. He glanced at the thermal lunch box in Sebastian's hand. "Mister Mills, I can't imagine that it's appropriate for you to treat a married woman with such care."Sebastian glanced at Sheila in her wheelchair and lifted an eyebrow. "But it's okay for a married man like you to care for another woman, huh? Tyler Hart, enough with the double standards. Eve

    Vicky shot Sheila a half-hearted smile. "What exactly did I say, then?""Miss Shaw, you admitted to jumping into that pool just seconds ago. Are you trying to go back on your own statement?""Did I?" Vicky stared at Sheila. "How did I admit to it?"Sheila froze and muttered, "You..." Halfway through her sentence, Sheila paused, unable to make another sound."'Whatever you say,' is all I said, but you three were the ones who had been speaking the entire time. Every time I try to say something, Miss Sasha over there just tries to overpower my voice by yelling. I'm injured, so am I supposed to shout back?" She gave one final sarcastic look to Sheila and added, "Or is the louder one the one in the right?"Furious, Sasha pointed at Vicky and shouted, "I didn't push you, Vicky Shaw! Don't even think of blaming this on me! I haven't even called the police on you for hitting me in the head... You'll be in jail soon!"Vicky simply repeated what Sasha once said about Cece. "Whether you did

    In Sheila's ward.Sheila stared at the man before her and asked, "Tyler, what do you…think about what happened?""I'll need to check the surveillance footage and understand what exactly happened before I can draw a conclusion.""And if Sasha really is at fault...""Then she has it coming," he said with a cold expression.She instantly realized that Tyler despised Sasha for what she did and did not intend to interfere.After a few moments of silence, she said, "Tyler, can you please help Sasha out? She's been the one by my side ever since I returned. I know that she has a terrible temper, but...you know that she's not a bad person. What's on her mind is all over her face."Besides, Miss Shaw hit her in the head, and she got badly injured from it, so I'd say that's enough of a punishment."All these happened because of me. Had my arm not been injured, Sasha wouldn't have resented Miss Shaw. Tyler, I know that Miss Shaw is your wife and you're in a difficult position, but please,

    Tension rose in the air, and silence fell over the room as both Tyler and Vicky remained quiet.After a while, Tyler said, "And what if I trade Cece for Sasha?"Vicky jolted in shock and stared at the cold expression on his handsome face. "Are you threatening me?"He looked at her calmly. "It's not a threat but a trade. Let Sasha off the hook, and I'll help get Cece out.""Sebastian is my childhood friend. I can ask him for help. I'm sure he's more than capable of that, considering the Mills family's status.""That's right. He's capable of getting Cece out for you." Tyler did not deny it but continued, "But you won't resort to him.""Why not?""His mother doesn't want you to contact him to begin with. Besides, you've lost your memories and have only seen him once. You'll never make such a request to someone you're not familiar with."She scowled and was about to speak when he interrupted her. "Maybe you'd seek his help if you have no other options, but you do now." He looked

    Sebastian's expression darkened. "Vicky, if nothing is troubling you, you can tell me. Others might be scared of crossing Tyler, but I'm not."The Hart family was one of the most powerful families in Stoneford City, but the Mills family was among those on the list as well.Feeling moved, Vicky said, "I've already decided, but thank you, Mister Mills. I've caused you a lot of trouble in the past two days."He scowled. "Vicky, we've known each other most of our lives, so you don't have to thank me... Don't call me Mister Mills. Just call me Sebastian.""Alright, Sebastian."He walked over to her bed. "Vicky, you might not remember this, but we grew up as friends. I know that I'm a stranger to you now and you can't trust me, but..." He looked into her eyes. "I know you. You would've never dropped the charges for no reason at all."She did not respond.He kept his eyes trained on her. "Vicky, can you tell me what happened?"All of Vicky's pretenses meant nothing to the people who k

    Sebastian did not protest and simply said, "Alright, then. Rest well. I'll go now."Right before leaving, he added, "Vicky, do you still have my number?"Vicky thought back to her contact list and shook her head. "I don't think so."Sure enough, Sebastian's name was not on her contact list. Therefore, the two exchanged numbers before he finally left.Shortly after he left, Vicky received a text message from Sebastian and she clicked it open.It was a photo of two figures taken outside the rooms, their backs facing the camera. Even so, she still managed to recognize them: Tyler and Sheila.Underneath the photo was a caption where Sebastian wrote, [Vicky, Tyler is in Sheila's room].Vicky took a glance at the photo before looking away; she didn’t care about it.-The next day, someone knocked on Vicky’s door shortly after she had finished her breakfast, and Sheila entered the room in her wheelchair."Ms. Shaw, are you feeling better now?""Much better. Thank you for asking, Mi

    Maggie was instantly rendered speechless.Just then, there was another knock on the door, and a man in a suit strolled in elegantly.Tyler stilled when he saw the scene inside the room and asked, "What's going on?"Maggie was sharper than Sasha and glanced at Vicky before saying, "After finding out what happened, Sheila was plagued with guilt toward Miss Shaw, so she insisted on coming here despite her leg injury and my objection to apologize to Miss Shaw, but..." Maggie paused before continuing pointedly, "It seems that Miss Shaw is still angry."Seeing that Sheila refused to get up until she accepted her apology, Vicky smiled and said, "Miss Young, Miss Perez is right; you have nothing to do with this. You didn't do anything wrong, so you don't have to apologize to me."She was wondering why Sheila would go through all the trouble to go to her room for this.She realized Sheila had staged it for Tyler to see.Sheila forced a smile. "Sasha is my cousin, after all. She has some

    [Alright.]Aurora sighed in relief. "Vicky, we've been out for quite a while. Shall we head back?"Vicky glanced at Aurora. "Can we finally go back now?""Yes, we can go back... Huh?" Aurora sensed something was amiss. "Vicky, do you...know something?"Vicky smiled. "Every time I go out with friends, Tyler always bombards me with questions about when I'll be back and insists on picking me up. Strangely, he didn't ask me anything today. Also... I remember that it's my birthday today."Aurora was left speechless as she realized Vicky saw right through her act....By the time they got home, it was starting to get dark outside. Inside the mansion, it was quiet and pitch-black. Suddenly, a warm, yellow candlelight gradually illuminated the darkness, revealing a handsome face."Happy birthday, Vicky," Tyler said.Vicky gazed at the flickering candles, feeling a bit dazed.It was then she remembered that during the early days of their relationship, he had prepared a birthday surpri

    Tyler showed great disdain when his wish of getting a daughter was let down. What irritated him most was that this son looked remarkably like him.After recovering from childbirth, Vicky accompanied a newly pregnant Aurora on a shopping trip for baby supplies.Upon hearing Vicky's story, Aurora could not help but ask, "Men are usually happy when they have sons, so why does Tyler prefer daughters?"Vicky sighed. "Tyler says that a family is never really balanced and happy unless they have one son and one daughter."Aurora nodded thoughtfully. "Indeed. Now that you have a son, having a daughter would be perfect. Vicky, have you and Tyler considered responding to the national call and having a third child?"Vicky shook her head. "The last time I gave birth, Tyler wasn't around, so he doesn't know what it was like. This time, he was scared out of his wits and had no intention of having more children. A few days ago, he even underwent a vasectomy."Aurora chuckled. "Daughters may be s

    However, everything spiraled out of control.Tyler knew his behavior was despicable, but he could not control his emotions.When he loved, every cell within him longed for her. Every time he came to see her, he told himself it would be the last time. However, he found himself appearing at her house more and more frequently.Tyler knew he was in trouble, and it would not be long before he returned to his former self.Vicky was like a drug to him. Even though he knew that contact with her was toxic, he could not bring himself to let go.He knew she was pregnant with his child, and his most primal desires began to surge, making it impossible for him to resist the urge to make her stay.Vicky listened quietly to his confession, and her heart ached.She could not fight off the urge to hold him; her touch was firm and comforting.He only mentioned a few words about the time he regained consciousness, but Vicky knew he had endured a lot of pain. The fact that he was alive was a miracl

    Tyler's lips quivered as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he fell silent.What was there to say? It was not like he could apologize. The deed had been done, and his apology would not mean anything. Besides, he had no regrets whatsoever.Vicky stared at him. "You tampered with the surveillance, didn't you?""Yes.""And the servants and nannies. They're all under your control, right?"Tyler lowered his gaze. "Yes."Since all of this was real and not a dream, she must have been unconscious when Tyler returned. No matter how soundly she slept, she should have felt something. Since she had to take care of Lufian, she came home every day for meals, so she guessed that something was added to her food.For the past few days, she pretended to eat at home while secretly disposing of her meals. As it turned out, her suspicions were correct.Vicky repeated the question she asked before. "Why didn't you come to me?"Tyler remained silent once again."Did you come here just t

    "Are you planning to leave just like that?"The man's body tensed.Click! The desk lamp was turned on, its warm, amber light illuminating the darkness."Why won't you look at me? Are you brave enough to do it but not to admit it?" echoed Vicky's gentle voice.Tyler snapped out of it and instinctively pulled his hand away from hers, ready to escape, only for Vicky's next words to pin him in place."If you leave now, I'll get rid of the baby in me tomorrow."He swiftly froze in place and turned back to her. "What did you just say?"Even though she prepared herself mentally, seeing the shock on his face made Vicky's eyes widen in shock. In an instant, her eyes welled up with tears. "You..."As Tyler met the shock in her eyes, he came to a sudden realization and turned his face away, looking anywhere but at her.When she learned about her pregnancy and knew she had not been dreaming, Vicky had a hunch about who it was that came and went freely into her home. The only one capable o

    Vicky began to feel increasingly uneasy. She was pregnant without even knowing who the father was. That had to be one of the most absurd jokes in the world.Aurora, Noah, and the others were bewildered.They knew Vicky's character well, and she was not the type to casually sleep around. Besides, she still had feelings for Tyler, so she would never sleep with another man.Getting drunk was even more out of the question. After all, she was either working or taking care of her child. She had neither the time nor the inclination to go out drinking.Even Vicky herself was bewildered, and her thoughts were in disarray. "I... I don't know."The others exchanged glances, all noticing that Vicky's first instinct was not to terminate the pregnancy."Vicky, go home and think it over carefully. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call us," Aurora said gently.Vicky nodded absently.Back at home, Vicky reviewed the surveillance footage once more.She had watched it numerous times, but

    Just then, a dish that Vicky usually enjoyed was brought to the table by the waiter.The aroma filled the air, but Vicky paled instantly. Before anyone could react, she retched and rushed to the bathroom.Everyone exchanged puzzled glances.Cece blinked. "What's wrong with Vicky?"Jennifer furrowed her brow. "Vicky doesn't look well. Is she ill?"The concerned Aurora chimed in, "Ever since Tyler's disappearance, Vicky hasn't been in the best mood. She even suffered from postpartum depression. Let's take her to the hospital after dinner. We can't afford for her to fall ill again."Everyone assumed that something was physically wrong with Vicky, but Noah, who remained silent, spoke up."I remember when Vicky was pregnant last time... She seemed to be very sensitive to certain smells."All eyes turned to Noah.Jennifer's eyes widened. "What are you trying to say, Noah?! You don't mean to suggest that...Vicky might be pregnant, do you?"Under the curious gazes of everyone, Noah c

However, whenever they had free time, Jennifer often returned to Stoneford City to meet her friends for gatherings and meals.Vicky's birthday was approaching in a few days, and Jennifer came back early for the occasion.Lufian, on the other hand, became the darling of the group, and everyone loved him. Thus, one of the highlights of visiting Zendonia was to see Lufian.On this day, Vicky had some free time and decided to go to the airport to fetch Jennifer.Harvey held Lufian and walked out of Vicky's mansion.He had also come back early to celebrate Vicky's birthday. Like everyone else, he adored Lufian.

    "Lufian is usually very well-behaved. He doesn't cause a fuss and is easy to handle.""Is his name Lufian?""That's right. Lufian Hart."Gloria's gaze flickered briefly but quickly returned to normal. "Have you given him a nickname?""Not yet," Vicky replied.Gloria did not say anything further.After playing with the child for a while, she carefully placed the necklace she had prepared around Lufian's neck.The baby played for a while and soon fell asleep.Gloria then gently returned Lufian to his stroller.Leaving the nursery, Vicky and Gloria engaged in casual conversation. They had no deep-seated grudges, and over time, their past love and hatred gradually faded away.Vicky smiled and remarked, "You seem to really like children. How about having one yourself? A kid would make a good companion for Lufian.""I'd like to, but I haven't found the right person," Gloria lamented.Gloria had been single for years.
