Chapter 213
âI know Hart Corporation is expanding now and it isnât the right time for everyone to find out that youâre
in the process of getting a divorceâ¦but I thought about it. We can keep our divorce from the public for
now. We can announce it after you settle your enemy and have total control of the situation. What do
you think?â
Vickyâs calm tone was a stark contrast to her pale face. It was like she had never felt clearer and cool-
headed before.
She glared at Tylerâs handsome, cool face while she added, âI know it wonât be long because of how
capable and amazing you are. Miss Young is an understanding person. I know sheâll understand your
situation.â
Tyler looked at Vicky and suddenly smiled in a strange way. âCanât wait to have a divorce, I see. So
which phase are you in with that man?â
Vicky was stunned for a few seconds before she finally understood what he was saying. She looked
angry, âI said weâre just friends, yet you and
Sheilaâ¦â
Tyler totally ignored the later part of her sentence and said coldly, âTell me: would a man and woman be
alone together in the middle of the night and call themselves friends?â
He grabbed her chin, his eyes cold like the winter storm. âYou donât think you can cover up with that for
your affair just because you said it so astoundingly, can you?â
Vicky was so angry that her body started to shiver. âHeâs so good at posing as a judge when heâs the
thief and confusing right and wrong.â
She clenched her fists tightly. âAlright. I have nothing to say if you insist that I cheated on you. I donât
think your pride will allow your wife to cheat on you, donât you? So why donât we go get our divorce
tomorrow?â
Tyler looked down and placed his lip close to her ear. He said in his low and cool voice, âDivorce? So
you can be together with that man? Do you think Iâd just let you go so easily?â
A thought appeared in his mind. He curled up his thin lips into a smile, yet it did not seem like he was
actually smiling.
It was a very ominous smile, like the calm before a storm.
âI know I havenât touched you because I havenât been back lately, soâ¦youâre getting lonely.â
Vicky understood what he was implying, and her eyes widened angrily.â Tyler Hart! You are a jerk!â
Tyler glanced at her and said indifferently, âI thought you liked me because Iâm a jerk.â
Before Vicky could say anything else, he took a step forward and pressed his lips against hers, ceasing
her from any attempts of retaliation, i
When Vicky woke up the next morning, it was already afternoon and Tyler was not there anymore. She
trembled in anger as she recalled what happened last night. It took her a while to calm herself and got
out of bed to take her shower.
She scrubbed her body harshly when she was in the bathroom until she finally felt pain. Her skin was
red because of how intense she scrubbed, and she only stopped when that happened.
The perfume scent on Tyler disgusted her so much last night. She finally understood why Sheila would
act so confidently. She underestimated how important Sheila was to Tyler.
At first, she thought Tyler did not have any feelings for Sheila. All the things he did for Sheila were
because he was trying to compensate her or because he owed her.
Alas, she forgot about one thing. Since Tyler did not love either of them, she was not really that
important to Tyler. Maybe Sheila was more important than her. It did not matter if there was no love in
the relationship. Compensation and debt were enough for Sheila. Enough for Sheila to see the reality
and enough for her to see that Vickyâ¦was nothing.
After she freshened up, she received a call from an audibly excited Cece.
âVicky, Director Lumber is putting together another new movie and wants to work with us again! Are
you interested?â
