Chapter 339
Vicky's expression darkened as she greeted him emotionlessly, "Mister Mills."
Sebastian paled at her cold, distant tone and walked over to grab her by the shoulder. "Vicky, why
haven't you answered any of my calls? What on earth happened?"
She shoved his hands aside. "Please keep your distance, Mister Mills."
"Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about me, Vicky? I know that it's my carelessness that
led to you being kidnapped, but-’
"Mister Mills," she interrupted him. "I'm grateful for all that you've done for me... My friends will be back
soon. If you don't have anything important to say, please get back to your life."

something to you?’
She lifted her gaze slowly and met his eyes. "Are the Harts and the Mills not competitors? Did you not
use me to distract Tyler from the deal he was about to make in Auran?"
Sebastian clenched his fists. "I admit that I had selfish intentions when I agreed to help you, but I
wasn't using you on purpose."
"Not on purpose? Did you use me by accident, then?”
"Vicky, if you hadn't called me at that time, saying that you want to leave Tyler, I would’ve never
involved you in my plan..." Sebastian tried to explain.
Before Vicky reached out to him, Sebastian never thought of using Vicky, but since she happened to
want a way out at the same time, the outcome would have been the same even if he chose not to take
advantage of her escape plan. However, he could not deny that that thought had crossed his mind.
Vicky had guessed it before and was not overly surprised or emotional at Sebastian's words. She knew
that nothing was free in the world, and since she asked for Sebastian's help, there was a price to pay.
"Please go, Mister Mills," she said.
"Vicky, I've been sending my men to look for you, and I've been calling you every single day, but you
never once picked up..."
Vicky completely lost her trust in Sebastian and did not take his words seriously.
Seeing how she was ignoring him, he moved to stand before her. "Vicky, listen to me. I looked into how
you got kidnapped in Lovian... Henry had an accident on the way, and considering how many people

"Vicky, there aren't that many people who can operate in secret under the Lovian governments' eyes."
"So? What are you trying to say?" She remained expressionless.
"If Tyler learned about your plan ahead of time, he might be able to accomplish that."
Vicky sneered. "So, you are telling me that Tyler did this?"
"He has the motive and the power."
"And what's his motive?"
Sebastian looked into her eyes. "Vicky, do you still want to divorce him?"
Vicky was amused. "Are you trying to tell me that this is all just a big trap Tyler set up so that I won't
divorce him?" "It worked, didn't it? You trust him unconditionally now and..." He paused." You no longer
wish to divorce him."
