Chapter 187
'Til get them myself. I don't like others touching my things.’
"Wait." Tyler grabbed his phone from the nightstand. "I'll have my bodyguards send you."
Vicky's hand on the doorknob stilled as she said, "It's fine. I can go home on my own. After all, I'm just
acting like I was kidnapped, and it wasn't even true. Why should I be afraid at all?"
There was one person who could prove that she was indeed kidnapped, and that was Mister Kirby.
However, there was no point in mentioning him. Since they were determined she was acting, it would
also make sense that she had bribed a few 'witnesses' into supporting her claim.
"I told you that I'll keep looking into it," he said emotionlessly. "Are you not going to be satisfied until I
say that I believe you out loud?"
She turned around to meet his eyes before shaking her head. "What's the point of saying it when you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdon't mean it?’
"Why are you upset, then?"
"I'm not upset."
He scanned her. "You basically have the word 'upset' written all over you."
Her hand tightened around the doorknob. "Maybe...it's just that frustrating to watch my own husband
risk his life for another woman,’ she said calmly.
He frowned and explained, "I've told you this many times. I won't marry her and I only went to save her
becau-"
"I know," interrupted Vicky. "Miss Young also said that you're just friends."
He continued to stare at her with a scowl as she opened the door.
"Rest. I'll go home to gather my things," she said.
Once she stepped out of the room, she felt much more at ease, but the scent of sanitizer around her
still filled her with disgust. It was the scent on Tyler’s body every time he went home after visiting
Sheila.
She stood and waited for the elevator.
Ding! The elevator door opened, and Adam stepped out.
She glanced at him and was about to step into the elevator when Adam said, "You don't look so
pleased, Miss Shaw. Are you upset that Mister Hart won't believe you?"
Adam was the complete opposite of Harry.
Harry was great at hiding his own emotions no matter how displeased he was, but Adam could barely
control himself.
The elevator door closed automatically since no one had entered.
Vicky did not want to talk to him and simply pressed the elevator button again.
As the door opened, Adam continued, "You must feel really sad that your husband doesn't believe you,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMiss Shaw. When you lie one too many times, people will think that you're lying even when you're
telling the truth.
"Vicky Shaw, you don't get to be upset about this. You deserve this because you are the one who
caused this. This is just karma."
Adam seemed to know a lot about the past and was appalled by Vicky to the point that he could not
contain himself even in front of Tyler.
He shot her one final look of contempt before storming off.
After gathering her belongings, Vicky took a shower and changed her clothes.
By the time she was done, the sky was beginning to turn dark, so she packed dinner and brought it with
her to the hospital.
She was about to head out after putting the food into a thermal box when her phone rang.
