Chapter 107
The surprise only lasted for a while.
Tyler was a good CEO and would never allow personal matters to affect his
work. Vicky never got him to break this ethic, and neither did Sheila. It seemed
Nikki could not do it, too.
Vicky had not discovered any similarities between Sheila and Nikki. They did not
look the same, and their temperaments did not match. The only similarity was
that they were both skilled in the piano.
However, Vicky did not think Tyler treated them differently just because they
could play the piano very well. Thus, she had a feeling it would be something

else, one she did not know of.
That was probably why Vicky showed up here every day.
The bar was popular, but Nikki was not the only one who performed for the
establishment. There were other performers who would showcase their talents,
too.
After finishing a song, Nikki bowed to the audience. When she was leaving the
stage, an affluent young man dressed in branded apparel stopped Nikki with a
glass of wine in his hand.
âMiss Mayland, do you mind drinking a glass of wine with me?â The guy smiled
confidently. âFifteen thousand dollars for a glass of wine. What do you think?â
Nikki hated this type of man the most.
Her gaze hardened. âIâm sorry. Iâm not interested.â
After that, she walked past the man.
This was not the first time he was here. Due to some family matters, he had not
visited for a long time and thus had not heard of how Tyler came to Nikkiâs
rescue.
Nikki had rejected numerous affluent menâs invitations to drink together in the
past. Although she did not like them, she behaved politely. Of course, after Tyler
saved her, no one dared to invite her for a drink anymore.
She could barely disguise the disgusted feeling she felt when the man- who was
evidently pissed that she declined him-approached her.
âYouâre just a performer in this bar. How dare you treat me that way?!â the man
growled and reached for Nikkiâs hand.
At that moment, a friend of the man heard the commotion and hurried over to
stop him. He whispered, âDonât be reckless! Sheâs now Tyler Hartâs womanâ¦
We canât afford to offend her.â
The rich kid was petrified. âWhat did you say?â
His friend whispered into his ear again. A few minutes later, the manâs
expression faltered. His eyes were full of fright when he looked at Nikki, and he
squeezed out a smile. âIâm sorry, l-l drank too much. Please forgive me for my
rudeness.â
Nikki, ever the forgiving type, replied, âItâs alright. Itâs just a misunderstanding.â
The rich kid adhered, âYes, yes. A misunderstandingâ¦â
Nikki nodded and left proudly.
Vicky sat not far from where it happened, and she witnessed the entire thing.
Her lips curled up. âSheâs behaving slightly differently from the last time.â
When she was backstage, she was surrounded by her colleagues.
âYoung Master Jeeves is just the son of a new-money family. Heâs overreaching
by trying to get hold of you from Mister Hart!â
âThatâs right. People like those stupid idiotic rich kids who think theyâre the best
are everywhere, I tell you!â
âHeâs lucky that Mister Hart isnât here today. His family would be gone from the
city if Mister Hart sees it!â
âTyler isnât here today,â Nikki thought. Her mood worsened just thinking of that.
Suddenly, a pretty young waitress entered the resting room and approached
Nikki to whisper into her ear.
Swiftly, Nikkiâs face soured.
