"I'm tired and I want to go to bed early...’ Vicky lowered her eyes, not wanting to look at Tyler, but he
lifted her chin and stared at her with his deep, dark eyes.
His eyes were like two bottomless pools of clear water that threatened to draw her soul in, and there
were no emotions or lust in those eyes at all.
"Vicky, this is your duty as a wife."
Duty?' she thought bitterly. Married couples have the duty to stay loyal to each other, but did he do
that?'
The steam in the bathroom made it hard to breathe.
"I'm not your pet, and I have the right to refuse. Besides..." Vicky's eyes glittered under the light. "I don't

"No?" The look in his eyes darkened. "Have you forgotten about what happened just now?"
Her expression darkened and he reached out to caress the skin on her neck. Her skin was fair, so the
marks he left on her neck stood out.
"Besides, when have I ever mentioned that I want a divorce?"
Vicky smiled. "Tyler, we've known each other long enough. Do you really think that I'm that ignorant of
your thoughts?" If he did not have the intention of divorcing her, he would have never allowed her
freedom out of the blue...and neither would he keep a distance from her nor invite Gloria for dinner.
Vicky could not bring herself to believe that he would invite Maestro Warner to Stoneford City and
arrange a meeting with Gloria if he did not mean to start a relationship with her, and how Gloria felt
about him must have been reciprocated to a certain extent.
Vicky stared into his eyes and said, "Tyler, will you swear that you don't intend on getting a divorce at
all?"
He fell into silence.
Tyler could sometimes be a great liar, but he could be cruelly honest at times, too.
The steam in the bathroom faded, and Vicky leaned her back against the cold wall before pushing the
man away. "I can tell she’s still in love with you... Since she's back, it means that she's prepared to let
go of the past. I know that having amnesia doesn't mean nothing has ever happened, and I'm sorry for
what I've done before..."
She lowered her voice and continued, "I know that saying sorry won't undo what's been done, but we
might as well right what's wrong and start fresh when there's still a chance..."
Seemingly provoked by her works, he moved closer once again. "Start fresh?" he repeated with a cold

Vicky froze.
"That's right. I have thought of getting a divorce, but I just realized that that's just going to benefit you. I
can never start fresh again, so you'll never have a new life."
Her lashes fluttered, and she felt her breath stuck in her throat. "Tyler, I can't get pregnant! Have you
forgotten that?"
She could sense that the mention of children seemed to be taboo for Tyler, but she was reluctant to
give up after getting her hopes up when he admitted to wanting a divorce, only for it to be taken away
when he said that he did not want it after all.
He narrowed his eyes emotionlessly. "The chances are slim, but it can happen." He pinned her against
the wall and continued, "You can start paying me what you owe me by giving me a child. Once that is
achieved, I'll consider letting you go."
