“About your birth.”
Tyler scanned her expression and asked, “What else?”
“That’s all.”
“Are you sure?”
“What exactly are you implying?” Vicky frowned. “Is there some kind of secret you don’t want Old Mister Hart to tell
me?”
Tyler shot her a half-smile. “Secrets? I figured…that you know just as much as I do.”
She felt chills down her spine at the thought that he might have noticed that she had regained her memories.
“What do you mean?”
He stared at her unblinkingly. “You’ve met Gloria, haven’t you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVicky relaxed slightly but tensed again in the next moment. “… No.”
“She’s been rescued just now.”
On their way home, Tyler answered a phone call that lasted only for a few moments. He said a simple ‘alright’
before hanging up.
‘Was that a phone call informing him that Gloria was taken away?’ she thought.
“I thought you said that she went away to be alone. Why would I see her anywhere?” Vicky asked calmly.
“Don’t think that no one would know what happened so long as you cut off the surveillance cameras and erase your
track, Vicky.” His eyes darkened to the point that there was no light in them. “Did you think that I won’t know where
you’d been if you left the bracelet at home?”
Vicky’s heart sank, knowing that Tyler must have found out about what she did.
“Fine. I did go there and I did see Gloria, but why would you lie to me to begin with? Don’t tell me that you were
keeping her there as your lover.”
“The hospital can’t deal with her depression, so I have to,” he said calmly.
“And that requires locking her up?”
“You know how frequently she gets abducted. She’s unstable; she could wander off and get kidnapped again if I
don’t lock her up.”
Had Vicky not seen how Gloria was ‘treated’, she would have believed in Tyler’s explanation.
“If that’s the case, is there a difference between her being treated by you or Harvey?”
“There’s no difference at all.”
She stared into his eyes. “So it doesn’t really matter to you whether I’ve met with her or not, does it?”
“That’s right.”
Vicky relaxed slightly, but he then added, “I don’t care that you met Gloria and informed Harvey about it. I’m just

“… Who else can help me here in Stoneford City apart from Alex and Harvey?” she spoke.
Alex had been captured by Tyler, so Harvey was the only one who could help her.
“It wasn’t Harvey.” Tyler smiled coldly. “I know what he’s capable of. Besides, he hasn’t sent his men to search for
Gloria at all, so how can he happen upon that place?”
Vicky’s lashes fluttered. “You caught Alex, and when Harvey found that mansion, he thought that it was Alex who
was locked in there…”
“Harvey might not be that much of a man, but he’s helped you multiple times and was your fiance once. Don’t you
think it’s cruel of you to blame it all on him when someone else is responsible?” Tyler seemed to have recalled
something unpleasant, and his expression darkened. “Vicky, do you just kick people out of your life as soon as they
are of no use to you?”
Startled by the look in his eyes, Vicky backed away, and Tyler was instantly provoked by her actio
