Chapter 111
Vicky stood still. "What are you trying to say?"
Nikki looked slightly hesitant. She knew Vicky was not an easy woman to deal with, and she especially
knew that with just a few words exchanged.
Vicky had a strong mind. If Nikki did not provide any solid evidence, it was hard to make her crumble.
Nikki took a deep breath and said seriously, ’Mister Hart has someone special in his heart. He'll never
love you."
"Are you saying that he won't love me, but there's a chance he will fall in love with you?" said Vicky.
"I don't know if Mister Hart will fall in love with me or not, but I'm sure my chances are higher than
yours," Nikki replied.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"On what ground?" Vicky asked.
Nikki glared at Vicky. ’I'm not trying to overreach. I know I'm not able to let him fall in love with me at my
current stage, but it's alright—I'm willing to wait. I'm willing to make sacrifices, and I'm even willing to
take a shot..."
At this point, she smiled bitterly. "Even if I'm a substitute or a shadow of another person. It doesn't
matter."
Vicky's pupils wavered. "A substitute? A shadow?”
Nikki continued, "Since you're here every day, you should know Mister Hart comes here to see my
performances too. The place he'd sit is very close to the stage. Every time I looked at him, I can see
him looking at me with a weird look.”
"A weird look?" Vicky wondered.
"Yes." Nikki's eyes became blurred like she drowned in her thoughts. "It's hard to describe the look. It's
like he's using me...to look at another person."
Vicky was startled to hear this. She had felt this several times herself, hence why she asked Tyler if he
had fallen in love with another person before Sheila.
The public had been saying Sheila was Tyler's first love and how much he loved Sheila. Frankly, Vicky
thought the same way in the beginning, especially when Tyler chose Sheila over her all the time.
After the talk she had with Tyler, however, she started to discover Tyler was not really an affectionate
person. He was cold-blooded and heartless instead.
When Sheila could still play the piano, he even had the thought of marrying her. When she could no
longer play, he stopped liking her.
How could a person stop liking a person because of a small matter if they were truly in love?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVicky's womanly instincts told her that Tyler had another person in his heart. However, she could not
find a trace of that person anywhere.
What Nikki had said proved that her assumption was right.
Vicky looked at Nikki and said, "Miss Mayland, are you willing to be that person's substitute? Even if
you're not the person he wants to see, miss, and love?"
Nikki smiled. "Not everyone can be a substitute. At least I have the chance now. Why can't I try it?"
"Then which part of you think you're like that person?" Vicky asked.
Nikki answered without hesitation like she had investigated Tyler thoroughly. "It's probably because we
both play the piano. I heard Sheila shocked everyone because of a song she played, and that was how
she captured Mister Hart's attention."
Vicky blinked and asked, ’You don't think Sheila is the person in Tyler's heart."
Nikki smiled. "That's right. Although everyone else thinks that, I know that person isn't Sheila."
"Why?”
