Chapter 71
"Since you're later than usual, I thought I could help apply the ointment for Missus Hart... I'll leave this
to you now that you're here."
Nanny Paterson hurried outside after explaining the situation.
Vicky was the one who asked Nanny Paterson to help her with it. Though she was technically married
to Tyler, they had not been intimate since she lost her memories. She could not get used to taking her
clothes off in front of him.
Tyler took off his jacket and went into the bathroom to wash his hands. He sanitized his hands before
proceeding to apply the ointment to Vicky's wounds.
His fingers were beautifully long, and she could distinctly feel his cold touch on her skin.
Tyler immediately stopped when he felt Vicky twitch. "Does it hurt?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe looked down. 'It's fine."
She tried her best to regain her composure, but the blush on her face soon betrayed her.
Tyler was a sharp man, and when he noticed the way she looked away and the blush on her face, he
narrowed his eyes and smiled. "There's no need to be shy. You used to get yourself injured on purpose
so that I'd apply ointment for you. Besides...we've been married for three years. I've seen every inch of
you there is to see."
Without another word, Tyler continued to apply ointment to her wounds.
He moved steadily, careful not to do anything out of line. He held onto the tube of ointment and his
dark, brooding eyes were fixated on the wounds without making her uncomfortable.
Tyler was an extremely handsome man with features that looked as though they had been carved into
perfection, graced with a figure that rivaled that of models. His presence was majestic.
With all combined, he attracted attention wherever he went.
For a moment, Vicky came to an understanding that any woman would throw herself at this man's feet-
even if he showed her the smallest act of kindness.
The next day, Vicky turned on the television.
"Following the news that Hart Corporation had severed their partnership with Hachett Group, the
chairman of Hachett Group, Mister Jason, has been involved in yet another scandal..."
Hearing the familiar name, Vicky was stunned and stopped herself from changing the channel.
She had not asked about Jason since the day of the incident.
Though she did not know much about the business world, she did have a habit of reading the news and
knew that Hart Corporation had just partnered with Hachett Group.
The Hachett family was one of the top families in Hatchland in terms of influence and financial power,
so if the partnership was terminated, Hart Corporation would lose millions of dollars.
Vicky was not arrogant and would not allow herself to believe that Tyler had done this for his wife,

According to why Vicky had wandered into Jason's room, Jessica explained that she typed the wrong
room number and had re-sent the message as soon as she realized that, but all was too late by then.
Vicky did not know if Jessica was telling the truth. Moreover, since she was still recuperating in the
hospital, she had no energy to look into it.
She had thought that she could investigate after she was discharged, so she was surprised to see the
news report on the television. She listened to the news reporter explaining the details and for a moment
could not tell how she felt about it. i
Meanwhile, in a certain room.
The tension in the air rose as Sheila looked at the man on the couch and explained hastily, "Tyler, I
have nothing to do with this!"
