Without giving Sheila the chance to respond, Tyler opened the door and left the room.The cold wind rushed into the room, and Sheila stood still as Tyler's voice echoed inside her head.'How have I been to you throughout the years, Sheila?''Go apologize to Vicky when you have the chance. I'll handle the rest.'Sheila chuckled darkly as though she was mocking herself for her foolishness....Someone knocked on the door to Vicky's ward.Thinking that it was Cece, Vicky placed the remote controller in her hand. "Come in."The door opened as a slim figure walked in with a bouquet."Miss Shaw, I heard that you were admitted into the hospital, so I came to pay you a visit."Vicky narrowed her eyes when she saw the woman who came in. "Miss Young?"Sure enough, it was Sheila.Tyler had taken the initiative to inform her of the results of the investigation.Sheila was with Jessica on the night of the incident, and Vicky only went into the room where Jason was in because Jessica ty
Vicky looked at Sheila, but she did not seem angry at all. "But what?"Sheila looked up into Vicky’s eyes. "You've cemented your position as Missus Hart even more now. I guess some good came out of a bad situation after all."Vicky paused. "What?""Tyler has decided that I'm a vicious woman who'd do whatever it takes to get what I want, which contradicts the understanding, gentle character I've built for myself over the years." Sheila smiled bitterly. "All my hard work has been ruined. Ms. Shaw, did you really think that Tyler would love a vicious woman like me?"Finally catching on to what she said, Vicky asked, "Are you trying to say that I'm behind all of this?""It doesn't matter anymore." Sheila forced a smile. "Congratulations, Ms. Shaw, for cementing your position."She then turned to leave.Vicky watched her receding figure and said, "Shouldn't you feel touched, Miss Young?"Sheila came to a halt with her hand on the doorknob, but she neither left nor turned around as V
"H—Haven't you always wanted to divorce me so that you can marry Sheila?""When did I say that?" asked Tyler.Vicky thought back to what happened in the past.Tyler did want to divorce her, and she still had the message from him that she received on the day of the accident. However, from what she could remember, he never mentioned anything about marrying Sheila.She narrowed her eyes in confusion. "So you don't want to marry her?""If I wanted to marry her, I wouldn't have married you," he said coldly."But wasn't I the one who sabotaged your relationship, forcing you to marry me?""Yes.""So Sheila...should be the one you wanted to marry at the time, right?""Yes.""But now—""I would've married Sheila had you not come into the picture. However, it's been three years and I no longer have a specific reason to marry her," interjected Tyler before she could finish.Vicky caught on immediately. "So there was a specific reason that you wanted to marry her.""Yes, but you ruine
Vicky knew that both Sheila and she were set for failure the moment they fell for Tyler.He wanted to marry Sheila, and after what Vicky did to Sheila, his feelings for Sheila faded as soon as she was deemed incapable of playing piano.Shocked by how cold he was, Vicky asked, "But if you don't want to marry Sheila anymore, why...did you insist on divorcing me before I lost my memories?"Tyler narrowed his eyes coldly. "Why?" he repeated sarcastically. "You should ask yourself what you did.""I don't remember."He stared down at her in contempt as memories came rushing back to him. "Not remembering what you did doesn't mean that none of it ever happened. Take some time to consider if you still want a divorce."His sharp, eagle-like eyes threatened to pierce right through her. "Missus Hart, you know what's best for yourself. In your current position, you managed to punish those who bullied you. If you were only an ordinary woman, do you think you could recover peacefully here?"Vi
"No, he wasn't killed. He was...cut down there."Vicky did not realize what she meant until a few moments later. "Are you saying that he is no longer a whole man?"Cece giggled. "Yeah! I heard that this guy is a womanizer, and it's probably worse than death for him to be able to see beautiful women but not be able to do anything to them! It's a good thing that he has a son now, or he'd be childless for the rest of his life!"Vicky despised Jason and did not feel any sympathy for him. Frankly, she was extremely glad that he would no longer be able to hurt another woman.Overjoyed to hear such great news on the day she was discharged from the hospital, Vicky said, "I know a new restaurant that makes great food. Come! I'll buy you lunch."Cece's eyes lit up. "Sure!"Vicky handed her belongings to Nanny Paterson and took Cece to the restaurant she mentioned. Since it was lunch hour, the restaurant was packed with customers.As soon as they entered the door, a waiter greeted them wit
Cece was the first to notice and instinctively tried to block Vicky's sight so she would not see Tyler with another woman."Vicky, since they don't have a table for us here, let's just go somewhere else."Just then, Maria spotted Vicky as Vicky naturally stood out from the crowd.She glanced over and immediately realized what happened when she saw the way Vicky was cast aside by the waiter.Maria smirked viciously and raised her voice as she put on a confused expression, "Oh? Tyler, isn't that...Vicky? Vicky, why are you here? Are you here to dine with your friend?"It was a sophisticated restaurant, and though it was packed with customers, no one would raise their voices, so Maria's voice echoed distinctly inside the hall.All eyes instantly focused on them.Maria ignored them and walked toward Vicky.Vicky already spotted Tyler before Cece could block her sight, and judging from the grin on Maria's smile, it was as though she had not done anything to Vicky in the past.She g
"You may proceed, Miss Sparks," replied Vicky nonchalantly.The manager, a perceptive man, immediately comprehended the situation and asked, "Missus Hart, would you prefer a room or a table by the window?""By the window, please."The manager immediately led the way. "Please follow me."Vicky had not spoken a single word with Tyler, and the two had not bothered looking at one another.Once they arrived at the table, the manager immediately apologized. "I am deeply sorry, Missus Hart. That waiter has just started working here and has offended you..." He then turned to the waiter and said, "Don't you know Missus Hart? Get over here and apologize!"True enough, the young waiter had just started working in the restaurant recently, and tears gathered in his eyes when he realized who Vicky was. When lectured by the manager, the waiter bowed deeply and said, "Missus Hart, I'm so sorry. I was wrong and offended you in public. Please forgive me."It should have been satisfying to watch t
"Vicky, are you saying that this restaurant isn't open for people like us?"Vicky nodded lightly. "Why else would they implement a rule to prioritize members? The membership system is meant to filter customers so that people who fail to fulfill certain requirements will stop coming here."This restaurant targets not only wealthy people but also customers of high status. They might anger some people during this process, but most of their customers would appreciate this. If you're a prince, will you be happy if they let a commoner dine in the same restaurant as you do?"Cece finally came to a realization. "I get it. Different social circles don't blend...and to dine with people of lower status would disconcert them.""The higher their status, the more they'd feel to distinguish themselves from others. People aren't equal in their eyes, and they want to feel superior, and they actually are. Ordinary people consider prices when they buy something, but when rich people buy brand-named p
