Chapter 184

"Resort to violence?" Tyler repeated.

Sheila turned to look at Tyler with resignation. "I'm sorry, Tyler. I was hysterical last night and slapped

Miss Shaw across the face..."

Maggie shot Vicky a look and muttered, "Miss Shaw keeps suspecting the nature of your relationship

with Sheila and came to warn her not to trouble you no matter what happened, Mister Hart. Not long

after that, Sheila was kidnapped and she was just a woman who hadn't been in such a situation before.

She had no one and was on edge.

"When Mister Hart finally rushed to her rescue and they were about to escape, Miss Shaw kept calling

and exposed them to the kidnappers.

That's how Mister Hart got shot while protecting Sheila..."

She paused and said, "Miss Shaw, what you said was right. Mister Hart would've never gotten hurt if he

hadn't gone to rescue Sheila, and it has nothing to do with your call. However..." She turned to look at

Vicky in confusion. ’What happened yesterday, Miss Shaw, for you to keep calling Mister Hart? Were

you in trouble?"

Sheila and Maggie worked together perfectly, and what seemed to be an apology contained a large

amount of information.

Not only had Maggie informed Vicky that Tyler was shot for trying to protect Sheila, but her words also

told Tyler that Vicky had visited Sheila the day before, asking her to stop bothering Tyler. Her words

also conveyed a message that Vicky had blamed everything on Sheila and did not think that the

accident occurred because of her phone call.

Vicky was impressed by how skilled the two were with their words.

Tyler did not seem to be provoked by what they said, nor did he try to confront Vicky. He simply looked

at her and asked, "Why did you call me last night?"

He knew that Vicky would have never called him continuously if it was not important.

Silence fell over the room as the three all focused on Vicky.

Tyler simply wanted to find out what happened, while Maggie and Sheila wondered what excuse Vicky

might come up with.

After a few moments of silence, Vicky said casually, "Oh. I was kidnapped at the time. That's why I kept

calling you."

Time seemed to have frozen over, and different expressions appeared on the others' faces.

Sheila was shocked, Maggie's face was filled with contempt, while Tyler remained calm.

His eyes remained trained on Vicky. "You were kidnapped?"

"Yeah."

"Ha!" Maggie could no longer hold back her laughter. "Miss Shaw, don’t you think your explanation is a

bit too...far-fetched?" She scanned Vicky up and down mockingly. "Sheila was kidnapped, and now

you're saying that you were kidnapped as well. All things aside, you're standing right now unscathed,

and you want to say that you were kidnapped?"

The only injury Vicky suffered was the slap across the face, which was witnessed by many.

Sheila had also come all the way here in the morning to apologize to Vicky because of that, so Vicky

could not claim that she was slapped by the kidnappers.

"It's the truth," Vicky said calmly.

She knew that Tyler might not believe her if she said that she was kidnapped because she was not

injured at all, but for some reason, she felt like telling the truth.
