Vicky frowned. "Was there a misunderstanding?"At that time, Tyler did not like her. Instead, he should be hating her. It was hardly unlikely he was the one who did that to Sebastian.Missus Mills sneered, "There was no misunderstanding; he admitted it himself. Not long later, you two got married."She continued, "Tyler is too powerful, and we can't defeat him. We can only hide from him. After Sebastian was cured, I sent him away. Not long later, he returned, as you can see, yet history seems to have repeated itself. Is there anything wrong with me suspecting it was Tyler's doing?"Vicky was speechless.Sebastian looked depressed after being reminded of the awful past.After a while, Vicky was the one who broke the silence. "I understand."She stood up and bowed respectfully at Missus Mills. "I'm truly sorry for causing so much trouble to Sebastian and your family. I'll do something about it."Obviously, Missus Mills did not dare to act nobly especially since she was asking a f
Tyler raised an eyebrow. "Followed you?"Vicky tried to calm herself and, with as much self-control as possible, spoke, "Tyler, you found and brought me back when I left Zendonia. It's not going to be easy for me to run away now that I'm here. Can you please give me some personal space?"Tyler's face was expressionless. "You were able to escape because I gave you too much 'personal space'. Do you think I'd make the same mistake twice?"Vicky sneered inwardly. 'I was able to escape, he said? He let me escape and planned everything that happened next. He even found a person to take the blame. It's funny that he can stand there and be calm to say that I was able to escape. How hilarious!' she mused to herself sarcastically.Vicky did not want to argue with him, so she suppressed her anger. "Sebastian and I are just friends… I heard he is in the hospital, so I thought of visiting him."She took a deep breath. "I misunderstood him, and now, his family is having a hard time because of m
Thus, Vicky fell silent."Please, Vicky," Missus Mills whimpered, "help Sebastian. Help my family, please. I'm begging you!""Missus Mills. I wish to help too, but…Tyler doesn't listen to me," Vicky explained."I heard that Harvey is back in Stoneford City," said Missus Mills. "The grudges between Harvey and Tyler aren't secret. If you go ask Harvey for help, I'm sure he's willing to help!"Vicky made no promises. Asking Harvey for help to fight against Tyler would mean she betrayed Tyler and stood against him. The grudges between them were not as easy as 'you hate me, and I hate you'.It was a far different level from the way Tyler hated Sebastian."Vicky, Tyler never loved you!" Missus Mills said in a hurry when she realized Vicky was hesitating. "There's something I never want to tell you, but he's crossed the line. The real person he loved wasn't Sheila. It's…"Missus Mills paused and hesitated. Yet, she remembered how Tyler was ruining her family, and all caution was flung
The man smiled. "As long as you have the marriage certificate, his social security number, and a copy of his driving license, then yes."Vicky looked at him and said, "Thank you, Mister Sparks."Harvey raised an eyebrow. "Before you lost your memory, you always called me Harvey. I'm not used to hearing you calling me Mister Sparks."Vicky smiled. "Thank you, Harvey."Harvey smiled brightly and cheerfully. Suddenly, he realized Vicky came empty-handed. He asked, "You're not going to bring anything with you?""It's rare for him to get drunk. I'm afraid I'll wake him up if I gather my things," Vicky answered.She did not dare to pack anything because she was afraid Tyler might notice something.Harvey nodded. "Alright. You can buy the things you need when you reach your destination."Vicky opened her mouth and wanted to say something as she looked at Harvey's handsome yet impish face.Harvey knew what was in her mind and said seriously, "I've already requested someone to pump in
Tyler's eyes turned cold, and so did his voice."Where's Vicky?" he asked."She… She left Stoneford City three hours ago, heading somewhere else…" his subordinate answered with fear.The air became stagnant.Tyler was not a person who liked to express his emotions visibly. Even when he was infuriated, he would never scold his subordinate. More often, his silence brought more fear when compared to the time he spoke."Huh," he scoffed smokily. It sounded apathetic and oppressing.He spoke to himself, "My girl hasn't learned her lesson yet, it seems."Vicky acted obediently this whole time. Although there were times she would fight back, it was nothing to Tyler. He thought she finally learned her lesson and stopped thinking of running after what happened at Forever Night.It turned out she still had it in her to run."Mister Hart." His subordinate hesitated upon realizing Tyler was murmuring. "Umm…what should we do?"Tyler did not panic as he calmly instructed, "Inform the airli
Harvey was very efficient. It did not matter that it was nighttime and no one was working. He still had ways to help Vicky to file for the divorce when he had all the documents. It only took him a night to file the divorce paper and send the divorce certificate to Tyler's mansion.Tyler played with the divorce certificate nonchalantly. He curved his thin lips into a smile that could scare a child. His eyes gleamed coldly and maliciously.Vicky's heart pounded heavily when all she heard was Tyler's cold voice, and she did not even see his expression at all."Tyler, we can't be together." Her voice was soft. "Please let me go.""Let you go?" Tyler sneered. "Why didn't you think of letting me go when you climbed onto my bed and forced me to marry you?""I was naive and stupid. I'm sorry," Vicky said."What's the use of saying you're 'sorry' after you killed a person?" Tyler asked.Vicky's fingers turned white. "You don't love me anyway! Why do you want to keep me by your side? You
"I heard they were looking for a man and a woman. It happened too suddenly, so this is all I could get, Mister Sparks. If they're looking for you, you'll be turning yourself in if you leave now."Harvey's pupils shook. "Alright. I got it."He hung up the phone right after that."What's wrong?" Vicky looked at him worriedly. "Is there a problem?"Harvey sported a reassuring expression and smiled carefreely. "Nothing. Tyler's reaction is very quick. He has the entire town on lockdown."Vicky's pupils shrank, and her face turned pale. "Tyler has the city in a lockdown? Then…is he going to find us?"If Tyler found her after this escape…there was no telling that he might just break her legs! The uncontended fear and horror filled her eyes. She started to pant and breathe heavily.Harvey picked up on her amounting anxiety and behavior, and he asked with furrowed eyebrows, "Vicky, what's wrong?"Vicky wanted to tell him she was alright, but her body betrayed her as she shook uncontrol
A tall man approached her slowly.Out of the blue, a bolt of lightning appeared in the sky. A cold, ferocious mask looked extremely scary under the light from the lightning. The man approached her quickly and touched her cheek softly.His voice sounded soft in the weirdest form possible as he said, "Vicky, you're not going anywhere. You're mine. Even when you're dead, you're still mine!"Suddenly, his soft voice became cold and sharp. "But why are you such a bad girl? Why do you keep thinking of running away? Since you can't control your legs, then… You shouldn't keep them. I'll chop them off for you, okay?"Before Vicky could react, a sharp dagger appeared in the man's hand. The lightning struck the sky once more, illuminating even the room. The dagger glinted sharply.The man swung and stabbed it into her leg—"Aah!" Vicky opened her eyes.Rumble! The thunder and lightning struck together.With the light from the lightning, Vicky could temporarily see the entire view of her r
