Tyler sneered sarcastically like he expected to get that answer from Vicky."How coincidental. Bumping into him in Stoneford City and here in Arrowtown… How faith worked miraculously to bring you two together."Vicky ignored his sarcasm and said coldly, "You have no right to keep me here. Let me out!""What's wrong? It's only been a day since you last met Harvey. Are you missing him like crazy now?" Tyler continued with his sarcasm."Tyler Hart, are you a sicko or what?!" Vicky huffed.Tyler said faintly, "I guess you're not that eager to go out."Vicky took a few deep breaths to force herself to calm down. "What do you want?""I made it very clear to you."For a short period, Vicky said nothing.Her soft voice only came through to the other side of the phone after a while. "Is Sheila that important to you?""What?"Vicky chuckled. "You really have outdone yourself to make me apologize to her.""What?""You had someone be an eyewitness because I refused to apologize to her
Vicky trembled upon hearing the guard's response. "What did you say?"Both of the bodyguards did not dare to look into her eyes. "Please go back to the room, Miss Shaw."She stood there, stiffly, unmoving for a long time before her legs could carry her back into the room.By then, it was already evening. She had not eaten anything, and her stomach growled in pain. As she stood in front of the window, she looked at the scenery outside with no emotion. Her eyes were hollow and empty.Ring, ring, ring!The sudden ringtone broke the stiff silence in the room, and it pulled Vicky back to reality where she looked for her phone. When she saw it was 'Mister Kirby' calling her, she felt a heavy sense of irony. She did not have the time to change his caller ID yet.To be precise, she had not deleted his number from her contact list.After a deep thought, she decided to answer the call but said nothing in greeting. She continued to look out the window and kept quiet."Vicky," came the dee
If the Shaw family and the Sparks family bonded together through marriage, it would create a strong affiliation and push Johnson Corporation to a whole new level.When one was on the rise, the other was bound to fail. Even if Tyler was the one behind everything, it was not really a problem thinking from where he stood.Vicky said calmly, "No matter who's behind everything, you deserted me and chose another person."This incident was a stain in Harvey's life that he could never get rid of. Regardless of the difficulties he faced at that time, everything sounded like excuses when this topic was brought up."I'm sorry." Harvey solemnly apologized to her. "Everything that happened in the past is my fault. That's the reason why I came back this time. I want to compensate you for all of the things I did to you."Vicky was not moved or was about to believe him. "So you never thought of starting over when you come back here?""Vicky, Johnson Corporation's main focus isn't here in Zendoni
After hearing what Harvey said, Vicky still was not stirred.The feud between her and Tyler was between them and them alone; it had nothing to do with Harvey or anyone else. Before her memory recovered, she would not trust anyone."I'll think about what you said, Mister Sparks. If there's nothing else, I'm going to hang up."Harvey knew Vicky did not believe in him or took the things he said into consideration. Thus, he did not try to persuade her anymore. "If you ever second-guess this whole thing or need my help with anything, just call me."Vicky responded perfunctorily and hung up the phone. As soon as she did that, someone knocked on the door.Knock, knock, knock!This startled her.'Who can it be? Don't tell me it's Sheila,' she thought. Immediately, she refuted that thought. Tyler had arranged for two strong bodyguards to stand outside the door. Even if Sheila was a stupid girl, she would not come to look for her.Vicky slowly walked to the door to open the door."Good
There was a knock at the office door.Harry walked into the sunny office. Shockingly, he discovered Tyler, who was a workaholic, was actually zoning out."Mister Hart," Harry said softly.Tyler was pulled back to reality and looked at Harry.Harry reported, "Doctor Turner had reported back. Miss Shaw didn't hurt her bones and muscles. She'll recover in a couple of days. Harvey Sparks, on the other hand…"After a moment of hesitation, he continued with the report. "Due to his good performance, he was given six-month parole. Before he was in jail, he still had some connections and followers, so we weren't aware that he had left jail."He monitored the look on Tyler's face and continued, "About Miss Shaw's kidnapping… We failed to gather any information. All traces of the related people and that particular taxi were destroyed. Even the taxi driver is nowhere to be found."After hearing the report, Tyler's expression soured. 'That means no one else knew what happened that day. No on
Sheila quickly put down the script and got up. "I'll make you a cup of tea…""You don't have to," Tyler said faintly, "I'm going to go after saying what I have to."She gazed into his faint, cool face. The smile on her face slowly dropped as she realized something."Are you here because…of Miss Shaw?"When she was reading the news in the evening, she realized all the news related to Vicky was gone. Someone must have taken control of it, and it was a no-brainer to guess who could be so powerful to take down all of the viral news so quickly.Tyler nodded. "This incident has been around long enough. It's time to end it."Sheila stayed silent for a few seconds and smiled. "Miss Shaw still refuses to admit it, does she?"Tyler did not answer that question. "Either of you has solid evidence to prove otherwise in this matter.""Yeah." She looked down and said softly, "Although no one else had touched the costumes before I put it on, I don't have the evidence to prove Miss Shaw was the
Tyler saw how nervous Sheila was and thus said, his voice husky, "If it wasn't you or Vicky, then…it's highly possible Maria Sparks is the culprit. Of course, all of these are just assumptions, and the possibility of it being an accident is much higher than someone causing it."He looked at the time and said, "If anything happens in the future, you can contact Harry."With that said, he turned and left.Sheila was shivering as she looked at Tyler's strong, tall back.Maggie, standing at the other side of the door, was frightened when the door abruptly opened. Her face looked pale.Tyler merely glanced at her and marched away, his long legs carrying him.Maggie felt relief washing over her when Tyler was nowhere in sight. It was then she discovered her back was soaked with sweat.When she walked into the ward, she saw Sheila's face was pale, too."Sheila, what was Mister Hart…trying to say?"She came for Sheila, of course. When she realized Tyler was in the room, she wanted to
Vicky was wondering if it was just her or if Tyler had changed to another person after he found out about Harvey. He was brooding more often than usual.Tyler glared at her coldly as he discovered Vicky was backing up. "I've sent people to take down the news on the internet."Knowing that did not comfort Vicky. Instead, it frightened her more. She did not forget what Tyler told her yesterday that he expected to take back twice the amount of everything she received from him.Vicky did not say anything, and Tyler did not mind the silent treatment. He threw his blazer to the sofa and strode to her. As he got closer, the smothering feeling was even more terrifying.Since her ankle was sprained, Doctor Turner advised her to limit her walking. Thus, she had been lying on the bed the whole time reading a book.A frightening feeling appeared in her heart as she saw Tyler coming at her.Subconsciously, she knew she needed to get away from him, so she kept backing up. However, the sight me
