Chapter 561
"No matter what, I'm his wife... He won't hurt me.
"No way," Alex flat-out refused. "I'd never make a woman my scapegoat. Over my dead body!"
Alex knew he was no match for Tyler, but he was no fool either.
Vicky had lost all her memories and would have never left with Alex had Alex's men not kidnapped her

Vicky studied the look on his face and smiled.
"I won't be a scapegoat; we're just helping each other out as friends. Alex, your life matters most to me.
Do you want to get killed by Tyler? If you die, how are you going to rescue me in the future? Don't

She snapped out of it and instinctively moved toward Tyler.
