Vicky accompanied Tyler to work as she usually would.
One day, while Tyler was in a meeting, Vicky looked up information about depression and dissociative identity disorder online. She was so focused that when her phone rang, she continued to look at the screen while answering absent-mindedly.
“How have you been, Vicky?” came a kind-sounding voice.
Vicky’s eyes focused upon hearing the voice. “Old Mister Hart?”
Old Mister Hart had not contacted her since she left the Harts’ mansion.
“Next weekend is Orion’s birthday. How about you and Tyler drop by if you’re free?”
Vicky frowned when she heard Orion’s name. He and Valencia had hurt Tyler immensely because of Lincoln. The worst was when they arranged for Tyler to undergo shock therapy under the guise of treating Tyler. Everyone, however, knew they had an ulterior motive.
“Tyler’s memory loss has caused a lot of fuss in the family. He’s still a Hart, so he needs to attend his father’s birthday celebration,” replied Old Mister Hart despite Vicky’s silence.
After another few seconds of silence, Vicky finally said,” Okay, I understand. I’ll let him know.”
Half an hour later, Tyler came back to his office. Vicky was doing some work on the computer by then. He walked over to her, and his expression faltered when he saw what was on the computer screen.
He turned to Vicky and said, “What’s the matter? Is something occupying you?”
Vicky looked at him in disbelief. “How… How do you know?”
Tyler pointed to the computer screen. “I know how much work you can complete in an hour, but you’ve only done this little while I was in the meeting. Your mind was either somewhere else, or you were doing something else.”
Vicky was speechless. ‘His observation and deducing skills are as sharp as ever.’
Vicky looked up at his handsome face. “Your grandfather just called. He asked us to go to your father’s birthday celebration next weekend.”
Tyler’s eyes darkened. He said nothing, so Vicky did not know what he was thinking about.
“Are you planning to go?” she asked softly.
“Yeah.”
“They’ve heard about your memory loss; there’s a chance they might test you.”
“I know.”
“Maybe you should find an excuse to get out of it,” suggested Vicky worriedly. She knew nothing good could ever come out of Tyler going to the Harts’ mansion.
Tyler bent down and kissed her forehead lightly.
“It’s okay. I know what to do.” After a pause, he added, “I’ll go alone. You stay at home, okay?”
Vicky was a little shocked.
Lately, Tyler wished for nothing more than for her to stay by his side 24/7. However, he actually suggested that she stayed while he would go to the Harts’ mansion alone?
