Before Harry and Tyler’s other assistants could respond, Vicky coldly interjected, ‘Miss Young, I thought you said that you’d leave once we’re sure Tyler is fine. You played the victim card and made it look as though you’re being bullied, yet you’ve forgotten all about what you said within minutes?”

Sheila’s expression darkened at Vicky’s sarcastic tone.

Displeased, Adam said, ’Miss Shaw, you should know better than to be so forceful as Missus Hart. If Mister wakes up and finds out that you’ve been treating Miss Young this way, he might-“

Vicky interrupted him and said, “What Miss Young said downstairs is quite right. As a man, it’s best for you to stay out of women’s business.”

Adam’s expression darkened. “Why you-!”

“Forget it.’ Sheila lowered her gaze and muttered calmly, “if Miss Shaw doesn’t want to see me, I can just leave… Tyler is more important than this argument.”

A distinct comparison formed between Vicky and Sheila, with one acting willfully with no remorse, while another chose to swallow her pride and compromise despite being bullied.

Instantly, all of Tyler’s subordinates started to regard Vicky and Sheila differently.

Without further delay, Sheila turned to leave and said to Maggie, “Let’s go.”

Maggie scowled. “But…”

Sheila stopped her from saying anything. “Let’s just head back and let Tyler heal. We’ll handle what happens afterward later.”

Sheila and Maggie soon left the hospital.

As Adam stared at Vicky, who stood her ground, he felt increasingly frustrated but did not say anything else as Tyler’s health was their priority at the moment. Since Vicky was his legal wife, there was nothing they could do to her.

The sun shone brightly the next day, and after all the rainy days, the sky looked bluer than usual.

Tyler, despite having been shot and lost a lot of blood, possessed a strong physique that pulled him through. He woke up the next day and immediately found a woman next to him.

She propped her head on her hand as she snoozed.

His vision gradually grew clearer, and he had a better look at the woman before him.

She was frowning, and one side of her cheeks was swollen as she seemed to be half-asleep.

He instinctively reached out, wanting to smooth the frown between her brows when she jolted away and opened her eyes.

When Vicky met his dark eyes, she felt dazed for a moment but soon sobered. “You’re finally awake.’ She got up to press the button to call the doctor and asked gently, “Any pain?”

“I’m fine.” His hoarse voice sounded seductive.

Vicky poured him a glass of water and moved it closer to his lips. ’Take a sip.”

Once he finished the glass, Vicky asked, “Want some more?”

“No.”

She set the glass down on the table and turned around, only to find Tyler staring at her unblinkingly.

His eyes were like two bottomless wells that threatened to suck her soul into them.
