Chapter 494
Vicky dared not to resist and allowed Tyler to have his way.
Time flew and soon, it was Friday.
Tyler had arranged forthem to travel to the resort the next day.
Perhaps because he needed to attend Gloria's birthday party, Tyler returned home earlier than usual
and even spoon-fed Vicky her dinner.
"If there's nothing else you need, I'll get going now,’ announced Tyler.
Vicky did not respond, and he planted a kiss on her lips. "Call me if you need anything."
He turned to look at Jade. "Look after her well until I return."
"Yes, sir.’
Tyler nodded and was about to leave when Vicky spoke out, "Do you have to go?’
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe paused and turned to look at her.
She leaned against the bedhead and stared at him unblinkingly. There were no emotions in her eyes,
and as she looked at him, she did not seem upset or hopeful.
Tyler stared at her. "HI be back soon."
"Can't you stay with me?" Vicky asked stubbornly.
Vicky rarely behaved this way and had not acted this way even when Tyler left in the middle of the night
to help Sheila in the past. For some reason he could not begin to fathom, she seemed to be acting
exceptionally wilful this time.
"Vicky.* He walked over to her and lowered his tone, "HI come back later to be with you."
She looked up at him, her eyes reddening. "You are my husband. I don't want you to celebrate another
woman's birthday."
"It's just an ordinary event between friends. It means nothing."
"I still don't want you to go."
"Vicky.’ He held eye contact calmly. "Am I supposed to stay away from any occasion involving other
women altogether?"
"You can go out with anyone but her."
"Why?"
"..." Vicky was rendered speechless.
She could not put it into words, but despite the fact that Gloria was her cousin, her existence annoyed
her more than Sheila did.
Tyler lowered his head and stared at her intently as though she was the only one he saw.
"Vicky, nothing will happen between me and her. Believe me."
Vicky did not speak and simply held onto his sleeve.
Tyler frowned in resignation and pulled Vicky's fingers away. "Vicky, I need to go. I'll bring you the

He slowly tore her hand away from his sleeve, and Vicky did not attempt to stop him any longer. She
watched as he stepped through the door and closed it behind him.
Sensing that Vicky was upset, Jade said, "Missus Hart, Mister Hart will be back soon... What do you
feel like reading? I'll get it for you."
Vicky shook her head. "You can leave. I want to rest."
Jade glanced at Vicky before stepping out of the room quietly.
Vicky lay in bed and drifted off to sleep until she was woken up by the vibration of her phone.
She glanced outside the window and noticed that the sky was pitch-dark.
Turning to look at the clock, she realized that it was already eight at night.
She rubbed her eyes and noticed a few unread messages on her phone. When she unlocked it, she
found a few videos received from an unknown number.
Vicky slowly tapped on the screen to play the first video.
