Chapter 415

Vicky’s eyes lit up with anger as she gritted out coldly, ‘How is obeying you going to benefit me?”

“Do you really think that I won’t touch you?’ said Tyler.

“I wouldn’t dare.’ She chuckled. “You’ve always done whatever you wanted with me anyway, right?”

He seemed to be oblivious to her sarcasm and said, “It’s good that you’re aware of that.”

The scent of blood filled the air, and both of them were dripping blood from their lips.

Vicky recalled the time she scratched the masked man in the chest and Tyler had not been home for

the week that followed. Realization dawned on her that he had been avoiding her out of concern that

she might recognize him.

She had been trying whatever she could to find the woman he had been meeting in secret, only to find

out that it had been her all along.

‘Tyler went to sleep in a different room only to send texts to me as the masked man,’ she thought to

herself. ‘Oh, I almost forgot. He’s been toying with me all along and has probably been laughing at me

behind my back.’

Seemingly aware of her thoughts, Tyler said, “Vicky, you’re not a good actress or a person who’s good

at lying. It’s best that you cast these thoughts away.’

She looked away. “Is that so?”

He nodded. “Your lies are filled with potholes and your acting is laughable.’ His lips curled into a

mocking smile. ‘Forget about meeting another man.

Even if all you are attempting is to shoplift, you’ll be spotted right away.”

His words pierced through her like daggers.

Tyler lowered his gaze at her and said, “Without my cooperation, you wouldn’t fool anyone past a day.’

“…’ Vicky questioned inwardly, ‘So I’m supposed to thank him for playing along so far, then?’

After a long moment of silence, Vicky asked, ‘What can I do to get your approval on the divorce?”

Tyler’s expression darkened, but he soon regained his composure. ‘Do you really want a divorce?’

She straightened her back and nodded. “Anything I can do. Just name your price.”

He shot her a dark look. “Give me a child and I’ll consider your proposal.”

“Are you toying with me, Tyler Hart?!”

He lifted an eyebrow. ‘Toying with you?”

“How are we going to get a divorce if we have a kid?”

“Why not?’

“We need to be held responsible for the kid once we decide to bring one into this world. If we can’t

even provide a child with a complete family, we might as well not give birth to a child at all.” Vicky

stared into his eyes. ‘A child isn’t a leverage we can use to fight each other.”

Tyler studied her coldly. “Fight? Vicky, do you actually think that you have what it takes to fight me?”

She froze and muttered sarcastically, “I guess I’ve overestimated myself.”

“So, do you agree on the term?”

She shook her head. “No.’

Tyler was not surprised and simply pulled her back into his arms. “Sleep, then.”

She instinctively tried to shake him off, but he only responded by tightening his arms around her.

“Tyler Hart.” She felt as though he was crushing her bones. “If you can’t fall asleep without something

in your arms, I can get you a bolster.’

“I thought you’d find me another woman instead,” he whispered into her ear.

“Tyler Hart, you have no shame!’ she gritted out.

“Yeah.’ He closed his eyes and said, ‘Stay still. If you wake me up, I don’t mind doing something to help

me sleep.’
