Sheila was certain that Vicky did this on purpose.They both lived in the same hospital and were in the VIP ward, so there was a chance that they could run into each other.Vicky was running a fever and rarely stepped out of her room, so she never ran into Sheila during her stay. Sheila, on the other hand, would often be taken out in her wheelchair by Sasha or Maggie after dinner, and since her schedule was regulated, anyone would be able to run into her if they wanted to.Vicky did not seem to notice Sheila until after she had checked the dessert Tyler bought for her."Miss Young, I didn't see you there." The smile on her face faded as she asked, "Has your leg not recovered?"It was a simple question but meant something different to Sheila and Sasha.Sheila was not badly injured and could have gone home to rest, yet she stayed in the hospital, hoping that Tyler would visit her.Before Sheila could respond, Sasha spoke out."Vicky Shaw, are you that happy that Sheila is hurt?!"
Sheila’s face fell.Vicky never got the chance to meet with Cece, but after Sasha's arrest, Tyler arranged a meeting for Sasha and Sheila. At that time, Sheila had indeed informed Sasha that she could be free if she agreed to apologize to Vicky.Though Sasha could be reckless at times, she could not be unreasonable, especially when she was at fault.Without Sheila there to plead for her, Tyler would have never done anything to help Sasha."Sasha, apologize to Ms. Shaw," said Sheila."I don't want to!" Sasha blurted out."I’ve explained everything to you before you got out, and you agreed to the terms."Sasha stomped on the floor in frustration. "I don't want to, Sheila!"Sheila's expression darkened. "If you don't want to...I won't help you if you get locked up again."The message Sheila was conveying was loud and clear: If Sasha refused to apologize, she would be locked up again.It took so much work for Sasha to be released, and she would rather die than be locked up again.
Sasha and Sheila shared the same family name, so Vicky often referred to them as 'Miss Sasha' and 'Miss Sheila' respectively. However, she used 'Miss Young' in her sentence, making it unclear as to who she was truly referring to.Sheila was a bright woman and immediately knew what Vicky was hinting at. Though it might seem like Vicky was referring to Sasha, she was actually mocking Sheila for relying on Tyler.Sheila clenched her fists until her nails dug into her flesh, but remained expressionless as she commanded monotonously, "This is your last chance, Sasha. Apologize to Miss Shaw right now."Sasha's heart sank.She feared Sheila was angry but would be terrified when Sheila became quiet all of a sudden because it felt like the calm before the storm.All that she did was only made possible because Sheila tolerated her. Without Sheila's protection, she would be nothing.Vicky was Tyler's wife by law, and if something did happen, Tyler would have to defend Vicky to some extent.
With someone as reckless as Sasha as her soldier, Sheila had her do everything she could not do or say while she continued to play the act of an innocent, kind-hearted woman.She had made others do the dirty work for her, and despite the blood on her hands along with the fact that she was trying to destroy a marriage, she still wanted a good reputation.'Things can't go that well for her!' Vicky thought to herself. 'Does she really think that she could manipulate Sasha and get whatever she wants? I'll have her know that Sasha is nothing but a ticking time bomb. She cares about Tyler, doesn't she? She'll always remain the pathetic homewrecker that she is now!'...The next day, Sheila was discharged.The injury on her leg had long recovered, and she only stayed in the hospital with the hope of making Tyler feel guilty about her injury.Though he did feel guilty to a certain extent, it was hardly comparable to the guilt he felt for Vicky.Sheila gritted her teeth as she realized t
"What's wrong?" Vicky's heart sank when she looked into Tyler's eyes. "Does it taste bad?"It had always been stressful to interact with Tyler as his presence was intimidating by nature that suffocated her.She picked up her spoon and had a taste.According to what Nanny Paterson said, Vicky was a great cook who enjoyed cooking whenever she had the time. Though she had lost her memories, she did not lose her instinct.Worried that she might be rusty, she practiced at home in the evening for Nanny Paterson to taste.Nanny Paterson told her that she had practiced cooking for Tyler's sake, so all her best dishes were also his favorite dishes.After tasting them, Vicky did not find any issues and turned to look at Tyler. "Is something wrong? You can tell me if there is, and I'll improve my cooking next time around.""No," he said hoarsely and proceeded to eat in the most elegant manner.Impressed by his mannerism, Vicky finally realized why countless women fell head over heels for
According to Vicky's understanding, other than Sheila, Tyler's first love, no other woman could make him fall for her.If that was the case, who was the person that Tyler saw in her?Without thinking about it, Vicky asked, "Tyler, other than Sheila, have you ever liked anybody else?"Tyler's dark expression suddenly fell back into normalcy. He lowered his eyes and collected his emotions. "Why are you suddenly asking me this?"Vicky replied, "I have to understand who I'm going up against. I want to know if I have any other competition other than Sheila."Since she had signed the agreement, Vicky was open about her intentions. For the past three months, she had tried to make Tyler like her, so asking such a question was not considered strange.Tyler did not answer her, however. He merely closed the documents in his hands. "I'll take a shower, then rest."He then got up and left the room.Vicky remained in the same spot as she stared at the man's long, slender figure. Her brow fur
Tyler glanced at her and sat by the dining table to quietly eat his breakfast.In the following days, Vicky would get up earlier in the morning to prepare breakfast for Tyler and would also cook dinner at night. She tried her best to be an eligible and great wife.That day, Tyler worked late. When he returned home, it was already slightly past midnight.He pushed open the door to the bedroom and was surprised to find that the lights in the bedroom were still on.Vicky had a routine. She would usually go to bed by 10.30 p.m.Hearing the sound of the door opening, Vicky, who was by the bed reading, smiled at the man who just returned home. "You're back."Tyler looked at her. "Why aren't you asleep?""Waiting for you, of course.""Didn't I say you could sleep first?"On days when Tyler could not return home to have dinner, he would tell Vicky in advance to not wait for him. He knew he was going to work very late that day, so he told Vicky beforehand that she could go to bed first
Previously, Tyler was not as busy as he was that night. He returned home on time every day and would regain his strength quickly with Vicky looking after him.Recently, however, he was so busy that he did not have the time to eat. He resumed his irregular eating habits once more, so his stomach condition flared up again."Hold on." Vicky put on her slippers and got out of bed. "I'll go get your medicine."A few minutes later, Vicky brought a glass of warm water and a few pills. She fed Tyler the medicine.After taking his medicine, Tyler's stomach pains decreased.Eventually, they returned to sleep once more.…The next afternoon, Vicky stood in the lobby of Hart Corporation and dialed Tyler.Beep, beep, beep!The phone rang for a long time. Finally, someone answered the call, and Tyler's low, cold voice rang out, "What is it?"Unless something was up, Vicky usually would never call Tyler and disturb his work.Vicky asked, "Have you had lunch yet?"After a few seconds of si
