Chapter 659
Vicky smiled. ’Don't worry, Noah. I'm alone this time, and Tyler isn't around."
Noah sighed a long breath of relief. ’Good... I was so scared."
"Noah, why are you so scared of Tyler?"
For someone from such a powerful family, it seemed odd for Noah to be so afraid of Tyler even when there was a
gap between their statuses.
Sebastian and Harvey never showed any fear toward Tyler, and Alex even dared to curse Tyler in his face.
"He's just sick in the head,’ Noah said bitterly.
Vicky was interested in the past and suggested, "You helped me out twice now, Noah. I haven't gotten the chance to
thank you. Why don't I treat you to a meal?"
Noah had a rough idea as to what Vicky wanted to know and wanted to tell her the truth to avoid any
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmisunderstanding, so he nodded. "Sure."
The two walked into a restaurant, and after placing the order, Vicky looked at Noah and asked, "Noah, Tyler said
that you were my ex-boyfriend. Is that true?"
’It's the truth in his eyes, but not the whole truth."
Confused, she asked, "What do you mean?"
"He thought that we were dating, but that was all just a lie. We were putting on a show.' Noah smiled.
"Why would I do that?"
"Because you wanted to break up with him, but he wouldn't give up, so that was your only option."
Vicky frowned. "That's not possible. I thought Tyler broke up with me after finding out that I took Gloria's place."
"Gloria?" Noah was taken aback. "What does this have to do with her?"
Vicky hesitated for a few moments before explaining the things she had discovered so far.
"Back then, Gloria was playing the piano in the garden, and Tyler ran into her. Because Gloria and I look alike from
the back, I said that I was the one who played in the garden when Tyler came looking for her, and that's how I got
to date him. I seemed to have kept it a secret for some time, and Tyler broke up with me after finding out what
happened."
"Who told you this?”
’Gloria and...Tyler."
He chuckled. "If I was you, I'd take everything Gloria said with a grain of salt.’
' Are you saying that she's lying to me?”
"No, but Gloria is sentimental. She only looks at the world around her subjectively and is great at making up a
scenario in her head... To be blunt, she has an even wilder imagination than I do. She was an outsider and didn't
know what happened, so what she said was only her take on the situation." i
"What about Tyler, then?’
"Tyler...." Noah stared at Vicky. "He resents you for abandoning him back then, so...it's only normal for him to lie. I'd
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsay that he is even less
believable than Gloria."
"I abandoned him?" Vicky questioned. "Are you sure that I was the one who broke up with him?"
"No doubt about that. He kept clinging onto you and even went as far as to let you date two men at once to stay
with you.'
Vicky flinched. "Are you sure...that he accepted that?"
She knew just how possessive Tyler was better than anyone, and he would die before agreeing to let his girlfriend
cheat.
"Maybe he accepted it because he could tell we weren't actually dating, but regardless of what he thought, he did
accept it."
After a long pause, Vicky asked, "So...am I or am I not Gloria's substitute?" ' Are you referring to the fact that he
once pursued Gloria?" Noah could not hold back his laughter. "That's just not possible! If someone is the substitute
here, it has to be Gloria."
