Chapter 31
Vicky hung up after a while and looked up to find Tyler staring at her.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” she asked.
“What are you trying to do, Vicky Shaw?” he asked coldly.
Tyler was a perceptive man and noticed the change in Vicky’s attitude. After all, she was extremely cold toward him in the morning.
Vicky took a sip of water and said, “Cece came to visit this afternoon.”
He waited patiently for her to continue.
“After she left, I thought about a lot of things.” She looked at him. “I think that there’s no point for us to hold a grudge against one another whether or not we stay married, right?”
“So?”
“You said that I can request something else, right?”
Tyler narrowed his eyes. “Looks like you already have something in mind.”
“Yeah.” She did not look away. “I know that I might’ve done a lot of stupid things in the past, and I can’t excuse myself or make up for them even if I’ve lost my memories… However, there’s no changing the past. I know that you hate me, and no matter what, we’ve been married for three years. Despite your resentment toward me, you don’t want me dead-”
“I don’t want you dead?” sneered Tyler, cutting her off as he lifted an eyebrow mockingly. “Who was it that said I was disappointed that you weren’t dead? Who was it that said I want you to disappear from the world?”
Corporation at a young age.
Five years ago, the Hart family had been a powerful force in Stoneford City, but for whatever reason, the family took a huge damage which led to their downfall. Just as everyone thought that the Hart family would fade into nothingness, Tyler returned from overseas and took over. Within just a year, he managed to stabilize the situation, and Hart Corporation returned to the top of the pyramid within another year.
His handsome looks, powerful status, and great accomplishments despite his young age distinguished him from other elite members of his age, and he became the most eligible bachelor of Stoneford City.
While Tyler obtained great success, the power balance in Stoneford City shifted as other families, including the Shaws, fell.
Vicky managed to hang onto Tyler at the time to stop herself from having to beg to make ends meet, but she, in turn, destroyed Tyler’s relationship with the woman he loved at the same time.
The pressure of facing Tyler caused her to sweat nervously and she continued, “Tyler, three months aren’t that long. I just want another chance, okay?”
