Chapter 967
"Do you not blame Tyler?" The man asked.
"If I were to blame him, it would only disturb my own peace of mind." Vicky did not ask this man how he knew about
these things. He had remarkable abilities, and some things didn’t require many words.
She continued calmly, "This is just karma. He simply returned everything I did to him from all those years ago."
The man's car drove smoothly and gently forward as he asked, "Do you still love him?"
Vicky fell silent.
Love was not something that simply disappeared with a simple statement or decision to let go. Healing needed
time.
The man understood her answer from her silence. "I know you won't betray him, and you don't want to seek

Vicky looked out the window. "Even if I'm unwilling to accept this, what can I do about it? Should I pester him
endlessly? He's the one in control of the Hart family, a powerful figure in Zendonia. There are many ways he can
force me to comply."
She had struggled and fought hard, but in the end, she could not withstand a single threat that Tyler made. In the
end,
Tyler even went as far as to send her to prison to make her sign the divorce papers.
The man gripped the steering wheel tightly. "So, have you decided to start anew?"
Vicky looked at her pale and blurred reflection in the car window and nodded gently. "Yes."
"I can help you if you want to seek revenge."
"Thank you, but that's not necessary."
Seeing her determination, the man did not press her on and simply said, "Are you free the day after tomorrow?"
"Is there something you need?"
"I have a banquet to attend, and I happen to be lacking a female companion. I was wondering if you could
temporarily fulfill that role."
The man had helped her a lot and had never asked for anything in return.
Vicky had always wondered how to repay him. Now that he had finally asked for a favor, she naturally had no
reason to refuse. "Alright."
Time passed quickly, and before she knew it, it was time to accompany the man to the banquet.
The man was waiting downstairs ahead of time. When Cece and Jennifer saw the man's car, they gave Vicky a
knowing smile.
"Vicky, have a great time tonight."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing Vicky dressed elegantly and with delicate makeup, they thought she had a date in the evening.
Vicky did not bother to explain or correct their assumption.
After bidding farewell to Cece and Jennifer, she got into the man's car.
As she got in, a hint of admiration flickered in the man's eyes, and he did not hold back his praise. "You look
beautiful today, Vicky."
Vicky smiled lightly. "Thank you."
After that brief exchange, the man started driving toward the location of the banquet.
Outside the entrance, the man reached his arm over to her and she hooked her arm around it politely.
The event hall was decorated extravagantly and was practically sparkling.
She had been to this hall multiple times with Tyler as the elite members of Stoneford City tended to host events
here.
As soon as she stepped into the hall, all the noises faded away and all eyes were focused on them.
Vicky was shocked at first but paled when she noticed all the familiar faces around her.
She instinctively let go of the man's arm. Just as she was about to run, the man held her hand firmly.
