Chapter 408
Sheila glanced at Vicky and took out her phone to search for something. Shortly after, her expression
darkened.
Vicky narrowed her eyes and stared directly at Sheila. ‘You know who that is, don't you?"
Sheila looked up abruptly. "Vicky Shaw, were you testing me?"
"I’m not that bored,’ Vicky said casually. "Though you kept telling me that you don't know who this
woman is, even Nikki managed to sense something, so is it really possible for you, someone who came
close to becoming Tyler's fiance, not know anything? If you don't know a thing, why would you keep
reminding me how important this person is to Tyler?"
Sheila remained silent.
The waiter brought the coffee Sheila ordered and set it down in front of her before leaving.
"Both of us are just substitutes for this woman," Vicky continued. "You might think that I'm lucky to be

"I don't mind telling you the truth: Tyler has been acting weird lately, and I suspect that this woman
might be back."
Vicky did not know what Sheila saw on her phone, but she did not seem to suspect a word Vicky said.
She stared at the steaming cup of coffee in front of her and whispered, "Vicky, Tyler might put up with
me to a certain degree, but there are lines that no one can cross. Do you understand?"
Vicky stared at her intently. "If you can leave hints here and there for me, why would it be an issue for
you to just come right out and say it?"
Sheila met her eyes. "There are taboos. Besides...saying these things out loud won't benefit me in any
way. Quite the opposite, actually. I'll lose everything."
"I should've known about this woman before I lost my memories." Vicky observed the look on Sheila's
face. "I'll get those memories back. Even if I don't know anything about this woman right now, I'll know
about her in the future. Since this person has resurfaced, I don't want to be ignorant."
Sheila stirred her coffee as she wavered.
Noticing her struggle, Vicky decided to push her further. 'Harvey Sparks knows this woman, and she's
rather important to him as well, isn't she?"
Sheila looked up in shock. "Why do you know that?"
"It's not exactly a secret so long as one tries to find out." Vicky kept her composure. "I might've lost
touch with the Shaws, but they probably know what happened all those years back. I could ask them
about it-"
"Vicky," Sheila interrupted her, "it's best that you don't ask the Shaws about this."
Vicky paused. "Why not?"
Sheila shot her a half-smile. "If you're so smart and managed to get this far, you should know."
Vicky arrived home that night and was stopped by someone.
"Vicky, can I have a few minutes of your time?"
Vicky stared at the middle-aged woman in front of her. "Missus Mills?"

The last time she saw Missus Mills was during the Mills' party, and Missus Mills was the embodiment of
elegance at the time. However, at this moment, her hair had all turned gray, and she looked so
exhausted that it was as though she aged 10 years in the past six months.
Missus Mills looked at her and pleaded, "Vicky, can you help Sebastian out? n
Vicky's expression darkened when she heard Sebastian's name. "I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can
do."
She did not know what happened to Sebastian, but she had no sympathy for someone who sold her to
Forever Night for his gain. Had it not been for Sebastian's scheme, the masked man would never have
haunted her.
Vicky turned to leave, but Missus Mills reached out to grab her by the wrist. "Vicky Shaw, you got
Sebastian and the Mills into this position. You can't just stay out of it!"
Vicky scowled. "Missus Mills, let go."
Missus Mills glared at her with bloodshot eyes and gritted out, "Vicky, you came close to getting
Sebastian killed, and this time...are you trying to break our family apart?"
