Tyler did not stop Harvey.
Harvey left sorrowfully and turned around as he walked through the gate. As he took in the sight of the mansion behind him, a sharp pain pierced through his chest.
He placed his hand over his chest dazedly in disbelief. He never expected himself to experience heartache over another woman apart from Gloria.
After Harvey left, the mansion returned to silence. The sun was still shining, but the house was as quiet as a haunted house.
Vicky watched as Harvey left and continued to stare off in the direction of where he went for sometime later before finally looking away.
In truth, she was not looking at Harvey but at the door he left through instead.
When she turned and met Tyler’s dark, brooding eyes, she jolted in shock.
Tyler had looked at her with disgust and contempt in the past, but he had never looked at her with such a sharp, piercing glare before.
She lowered her gaze to avoid eye contact with him, and he simply chuckled before carrying her up the stairs.
They returned to the bedroom, and he closed the door behind him. Unable to contain his anger, however, the door slammed shut, causing the wall to shake slightly.
Vicky’s heart sank because she knew that Tyler was about to make her pay for her insubordination.
He set her down on the bed and looked down at her. “If you were so reluctant to part with him, why didn’t you leave with him?’
The afternoon sun shone onto Vicky through the window, and she looked up. “Why did you marry me when you love her so much?’
He narrowed his eyes. “Hm?”
“I am getting flashbacks.” She tugged a strand of hair behind her ear and looked at him with a faint smile. “We’ve known each other for a while, haven’t we?”
Tyler’s eyes, which were often as unwavering as a calm lake, flickered with emotions for a split moment, and Vicky caught sight of it.
He resumed normality almost immediately. “So what?”
“People keep saying that I slept with you for wealth and fame and that I was shameless for forcing you to marry me. But if you are that reluctant to marry me, it’s not like I can force myself on you.” The look in her eyes darkened. “Harvey has been involved with the woman who you love and can’t seem to get, so you went to sleep with his fiance… There’s no better way to get revenge, is there?”
Tyler narrowed his eyes darkly as he studied her thoughtfully.
Sometime later, he smiled and said in a seductive tone, ’Looks like you’ve recalled the night of your engagement party with Harvey.”
Despite losing her memories, rumors of how she managed to marry Tyler never ceased, and she already heard from Sasha and Sheila that Harvey was defeated and left Stoneford City by the time she tricked Tyler into sleeping with her. i
The Shaws fell at the same time, but what she dreamt of earlier happened when she had just gotten engaged to Harvey. It was around the time when Tyler and Harvey were in the depth of their rivalry, and she was not supposed to know Tyler in person at the time.
However, Tyler mentioned that Harvey gave her to another man for Gloria’s sake, while Harvey said that Tyler plotted the entire incident so he would benefit from it in the end.
Combining what she had been told so far and what she saw in her dream, she concluded what had happened.
She stared into Tyler’s eyes and questioned, “Why haven’t you mentioned that we knew each other from the start?”
