Chapter 1060

Vicky locked eyes with Elijah. "Did you and Tyler conspire together from the beginning when you came to order

dresses from my studio?"

Elijah hurriedly replied, "No. There was nothing like that at that time."

"Not at that time? So... was it when you picked me up from the hospital?"

Elijah could not bear to meet Vicky's gaze. "It wasn't then, either... I was refusing to get married, and Grandma was

worried about me. To make me marry, she lied to me about having a terminal illness... My fiance was indeed

someone I hastily found to deal with the pressure. After the scandal about us started circulating, my ex-fiance was

furious, and we had a big fight. She even suggested breaking up. At that time, I had already discussed with my

family that I would bring my fiance home... It was only out of desperation that I came up with the idea of asking for

your help. When I heard you were hospitalized, I went to see you... The things I said to you in the car at that time

were all true. It's just that..." Elijah felt extremely guilty about Vicky and could hardly look into her eyes.

He had asked for Vicky's help, and she had agreed. He owed her a favor, yet he ended up betraying her.

Old Madam Harrisons intervened, taking over the conversation as Elijah seemed incapable of continuing. "Let me

explain what happened next. The day after Elijah brought us to meet you, Tyler came to us. He proposed that we

cooperate with him in putting up an act and promised the Harrisons family some corresponding rewards."

At that time, the Harrisons were indeed in a difficult situation, so Old Madam Harrisons and the others did not

hesitate before agreeing to Tyler's proposal.

After all, pretending to accept Vicky into the family in exchange for the prosperity of the family was an incredibly

profitable deal, especially when the engagement was not real to begin with.

For the Harrisons, it was a heaven-sent opportunity.

Vicky looked at Old Madam Harrisons. "So, does that mean that the warmth and kindness all of you have shown me

during this time were all an act? None of it was real?"

Old Madam Harrisons fell silent for a moment. "Vicky, you should know that when I first met you, I genuinely liked

you and treated you as my granddaughter-in-law. I didn't have high expectations for Elijah, and I just hoped he

could find a woman who genuinely wanted to be with him, even if she had been divorced before."

Old Madam Harrisons did not directly answer the question, but Vicky already had the answer in her heart.

In fact, upon hearing the truth, she understood that no matter how kind and gentle Old Madam Harrisons seemed,

she would not hesitate to turn her back on Vicky if it benefited her family. It did not matter if she was truly

engaged to Elijah or not.

In these aristocratic families, genuine feelings were rare, and interests always came first.

At that moment, the questions that had puzzled her before gradually found their answers.

Vicky turned to look at Missus Harrisons. "So, on that night when I went to the wrong room, you changed the room

number after I entered, didn't you?"

She remembered clearly that she had gone to the room that Aurora mentioned, but the next day, when she left,

she found that the room number was different from what she had seen the night before.

Vicky never found out how that could have happened and was left with no options but to think of it as her own

mistake.

Thinking back, Vicky realized that Aurora tricked her into that room, and the Harrisons family changed the room

number afterward.

Missus Harrisons parted her lips and muttered, "Yes..."

Vicky asked, "When you were having a discussion in the living room about the Harrisons family offending Tyler Hart,

going bankrupt, and having to move out of the mansion overnight... That was also an act, right?"

No one spoke and their silence confirmed everything Vicky had thought.

She chuckled. "What grievance it must have been for all of you to put up such an act only to fool me."

As she laughed, tears began to well in her eyes. However, not a single tear rolled down her cheeks.

She stood from her seat and stepped outside stiffly.

Elijah felt guilty and stood to console Vicky, but Old Madam Harrisons stopped him by shaking her head. Elijah

ended up standing in place.
