Loving You In Secret

Chapter 140

Chapter 140

Vicky was no doubt far superior in terms of looks, and though she came from a fallen family, her family

used to hold a position of power in Stoneford City. Even when the glory of the Shaws had faded, their

connections in the city remained. Compared to Nikki, who had no power or connection at all, Vicky

triumphed over her.

As for how much they each mattered to Tyler, there were rumors that he had been to a certain bar to

listen to Nikki's performance and had helped her once but was not seen again since then.

Whether or not Vicky was involved in stopping Tyler from going, Nikki could not be that important to

Tyler if he gave up on her so easily.

Moreover, Tyler had invited Vicky to the first dance in front of everyone at his birthday party.

Even if it was all but an act, it was enough to draw jealousy toward Vicky for what he had done for her.

A man in Tyler's status would not have done such a thing if he did not place importance on Vicky to

begin with.

Indeed, there was no reason for Vicky to bully a woman who was far inferior to her in every aspect,

especially when she was capable of explaining herself in a reasonable manner and did not appear to

be a mindless woman.

The crowd wavered, but then Maria's voice broke the silence. "You said that you have no reason to be

jealous of Miss Mayland? Ha! Is that so?" Maria stared Vicky in the eyes. "Miss Mayland is talented in

playing the piano. Can you do it, Vicky Shaw?!"

Vicky narrowed her eyes and clenched her fists.

Maria studied Vicky's expression viciously, and her tone grew increasingly smug at Vicky's silence. 'You

can't, can you? Tyler likes to listen to piano mind to tell rumors from the truth, but it's extremely easy to

start one. As Missus Hart, I swear that what I'm about to say is one hundred percent true. II

The crowd quieted down.

Vicky did not raise her voice like Maria did nor did she whisper as though she was the victim like Nikki

did. She maintained the same tone and speed without a trace of panic or concern on her face.

"I don't want to comment on what Miss Mayland and Miss Sparks said, but I'm sure everyone here saw

how Tyler treated me and anyone with eyes can tell how close we are. Even if we're just putting on an

act, I'm no longer the same woman who could be ridiculed without consequence. I used to be

relentless in my effort of trying to maintain this marriage and to seek more attention from Tyler. Now

that I have what I want, why would I do something so foolish?

"Besides..." She smiled at Nikki. "Why would I be so jealous enough to do something like this to her in

public without any regard for the occasion? Is she extremely beautiful? Is she from an extremely

powerful family? Is she loved dearly by Tyler?"

Silence fell over the hall, and the guests glanced back and forth from Vicky to Nikki.
