Chapter 84
Scott smiled. "Missus Hart, your hand is injured. Whether or not you were bitten by a dog, you had to
be treated. If you insist on thinking that I brought you here to get rid of the evidence... Well, I can't
change your mind.

Scott was a famed lawyer and was more than capable of answering her question without admitting to
anything.
Vicky looked at him. ’So, how are you going to resolve this, Mister Simmons?"
"Missus Hart, that dog has been punished, so I guess you can say we're even. Why don't we all make
compromises and just call this a day?" Scott's tone was both gentle and forceful as he purposefully

Vicky knew that she would have been forced to apologize to Mandy had she not been Tyler’s wife.
Before she could say anything, however, she heard a cold voice from behind her. "My wife is injured, as
I suppose your pet is. Do you honestly think that your dog and my wife are on the same level, Mister
Simmons?" 1
The three immediately turned around and saw a man standing by the door.
He was dressed in a black suit, and his eyes scanned the room in a way that sent chills down their
spines.
Tension rose in the air, and Scott cowered slightly when he saw Tyler but immediately recovered.
"Mister Hart."
Tyler walked over to Vicky to check on her injury. "Does it hurt?"
She was stunned for a moment but immediately shook her head. "It doesn't hurt now."
After confirming that her wound was treated, he turned his attention back to Scott. "Mister Simmons,
did I understand what you said correctly?"
Though Scott knew Vicky, he also knew that her relationship with Tyler had been horrible as rumors of
their divorce had never been far from his ears. This was why Vicky did not intimidate him and only
chose to let Vicky go to avoid causing a scene. If it was someone else who was bitten by Mandy's dog,
they would have never bothered arguing about who was wrong.
"Mister Hart, Mandy and Missus Hart are both saying different things.
Missus Hart has no witnesses, and Mandy's witnesses are all people who work for us, so they don't
truly count. That’s why I'm trying to get them both to compromise and let go of this conflict," replied
Scott.

sharply. He did not ask Vicky about what happened as though he had already comprehended the entire
situation.
Scott paled slightly. "Missus Hart said that she was bitten by the dog, but Mandy said Missus Hart bit
herself... There's no way to tell who's telling the truth."
Tyler looked at Vicky and said, "Vicky, tell them: Did you bite yourself, or were you bitten by the dog?"
She met his dark eyes, and her heart instantly started to race. "Miss Simmons' dog bit me.”
Tyler nodded and turned to look at Scott and Mandy. "She said that your dog bit her."
"And what she said has to be true?" Mandy argued.
Tyler interrupted her and said, "Yes, because she's Missus Hart, the wife of
Tyler Hart."
Vicky jolted in shock, and both Scott and Mandy were stunned.
