Chapter 789
[Don’t worry. He didn’t know it was me. I pointed all the leads to a female driver. You wouldn’t be able to reach me
now otherwise.]
Vicky stared at the text and frowned.
Tyler was far too sharp, and it was extremely challenging for her to lie to him, so she managed to persuade him
with a half-truth the night before.
Vicky knew that Tyler would get to the bottom of anything if he wanted to, yet the mysterious man claimed that he
managed to point all evidence to a female driver instead.
‘Is he really that capable?’ she thought. ‘If Tyler finds out about the truth, isn’t that going to deepen the
misunderstanding between us?’
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhile Vicky was absorbed in her thoughts, the man sent her another text.
[Oh, I forgot to mention. Alex was caught last night.]
Vicky jolted and thought, ‘So Tyler returned home early last night because Alex was caught?!’
Vicky ignored the text and hastily made a call to Harvey.
It took some time for Harvey to pick up, but when he did, she could sense how exhausted he was through the sound
of his voice.
“Vicky.”
“Has Alex been captured?” she asked.
After a long silence, Harvey said, “I’m sorry, Vicky.”
“It’s not your fault.” Vicky tightened her fingers around the phone. “Without your help, Alex would’ve been captured
a long time ago.”
Vicky knew that Alex only managed to be under Harvey’s protection for so long because Tyler did not devote much
effort to capturing him. As long as Tyler wanted it, Harvey would only be able to protect himself, and Alex was
bound to be captured at some point.
“Thank you for helping me out,” she said. “As for what happens to Alex, let it be.”
“Vicky…” Harvey wanted to say something else but was instantly interrupted.
“You once said that Tyler was the one who erased my memories. Did he stage my car accident, too?”
“I don’t have any evidence to prove it.” Harvey did not expect Vicky to ask such a question. “Vicky, have you found
something?”
“No, but…” She hesitated before deciding to mention the man she ran into the night before.
After listening to Vicky’s description of the man, Harvey said, “I’ve never met this man before, nor have you ever
mentioned him to me. However…”

“There had always been this mysterious man helping you from behind the scenes back then. He’s been so good at
hiding his tracks that I never found out who he was.”
“Can this man be the mysterious man who helped me before?”
“I don’t know,” Harvey said. “You’ll have to confirm that once you recover your memories.”
After the call with Harvey, Vicky lost all strength to head to work and remained home to rest.
She took a nap and felt more energized, so she went to her study to read a book, though she kept getting
distracted.
She stared at the sun outside the window thoughtfully.
Both Harvey and the mysterious man said that Tyler was the one who erased her memories, and she was still
having a hard time believing it.
‘Why would Tyler do such a thing?’ she thought.
She remained dazed for a while before standing up and exiting the study.
Instead of returning to her bedroom, she strolled toward Tyler’s study
