Chapter 538
"That was then, and this is now," said Vicky expressionlessly. "People change. I might want pasta
today, and steak tomorrow. It's the same thing." She paused and added, "If you really want someone in
your car... Gloria is still in her studio and hasn't been able to rest so far. I'm sure she'll gladly say yes if
you offer to send her home."
"I'm not here for her."
Vicky looked at him and asked, "Is there something you would like to discuss, then, if you're waiting for
me here late at night? Can it be that...the divorce paperwork has been finalized?"
He narrowed his eyes and tightened his grip around her waist. "Divorce?"
"Isn't that the case?"
"No."
She felt confused and asked, "So what is it, then?"
After a few moments of silence, he said, "I'm here to bring you home."

"Yeah."
"That won't be necessary," she said coldly. "I'm an adult and I work late all the time anyway. It's not like
I've never
returned home at this time before, so you don't need to give me a lift."
"That’s up to me."
"Sure." She chuckled. "But whether to get inside your car is up to me. Right now, I don't want to get into
your car. Can you let me go now?”
"No.-
Vicky began to feel frustrated. "Tyler, plenty of people would want to be in your car, and you don't have
to bother someone who doesn't want to. Someone else would die to have the honor not far from here,
so why would you waste your time on me?" '
"I'll always get twice for what I've invested back." He stared at her darkly. "Vicky, if you don't want to
waste time, get in."
"No."
"Then we will stay here."
"I don't care if we spend the whole night here." She stared at him mockingly. "You, on the other hand...
If Gloria comes out tomorrow and sees us in this state, she might get the wrong idea."
He narrowed his eyes. "You keep bringing Gloria up... Are you jealous?" He smiled and asked, "If you
are jealous, why would you push me toward another woman?"
"To be honest, if you're having a hard time forgetting about her because of what happened all those
years ago, I can sympathize," Vicky said coldly. "But, if you are acting this way just to make me
jealous... Well, you're just cheap.
However..."
She added as his expression darkened, "I know that you aren't someone who'd sink so low, so I
assume that you just can't control yourself around Gloria. Still, don't you think that you and Gloria

care about what I think, think about what others might say. Gloria is a high-born lady who has never
been involved in any negative scandals before. Once photos of the two of you getting all lovey-dovey
leak, she’ll be called a homewrecker, and that's probably going to be the worst moment in her life. I
mean, can't you do that kind of thing somewhere people can't see? Or do you just have a fetish for
being watched?"
His expression hardened as she spoke. "Somewhere people can't see?" He looked at her with a
mysterious expression." Would you say that this spot is where people can't see, then? ■
They were five minutes drive away from Gloria's studio, so Vicky assumed that Tyler was referring to
the studio.
"It's pretty quiet here if no one comes around, so yeah. It won't be a bad spot for you and Gloria to
have your secret dates here-ah!"
Before she could finish, he grabbed her by the wrist and dragged her toward his car, opened the door
to the passenger seat, and pushed her inside.
The thought that Gloria sat on the same seat and that she came close to kissing Tyler disgusted Vicky,
so she struggled with all her might and even went as far as to bite him to break free, but he simply let
the back of her seat down without warning.
