Vicky looked up at Tyler and answered, “Because…I’m your wife?”

Tyler laughed. “Wrong. It’s because I’m still useful to them.”

“How are you still useful to them?” asked Vicky with a puzzled expression on her face.

“I can help their adopted son to successfully get the position of being the heir to the entire Hart family’s fortune.”

Vicky was a little taken aback. “They want you to help him? But aren’t you their real kid…?”

“So what?” Tyler asked back indifferently.

Vicky fell silent.

Tyler was right—what did it matter that he was their biological child? He had long been labeled as the ‘rebellious

one’, and it was all because of her. If she was not in his life, he would not have been hated by his parents nor would

he have to suffer through so much torture.

This new knowledge made Vicky feel as if a giant boulder was pressing against her chest and making it hard for her

to breathe.

Since Vicky did not continue the conversation, neither did Tyler.

Vicky—who on account of being locked up for so long—was feverish. The emotional shock of seeing Tyler had

subsided, leaving her feeling sleepy and cold.

Tyler noticed her trembling, so he hugged her tighter. Instinctively, Vicky began to struggle even though she had no

energy left. Her resistance made Tyler’s eyes darken because he realized she would only be nice when she needed

something from him.

“We’ve done everything a married couple does, so why are you still acting like we are strangers?” asked Tyler

coldly.

Vicky knew he had misunderstood her. “I’m dirty…and I’m worried that I’ll get your clothes dirty too,” she said

softly.

She had been locked up in a dirty and cold basement for the past several days without a chance to shower, and

only god knew what bugs had been crawling all over her.

Tyler had always been a clean freak, so she was afraid of dirtying him.

Tyler’s face softened after having heard her explanation. “It’s fine,” he said lightly.

However, a woman would always want to present her best side to the man they loved. Therefore, Vicky could not

imagine just how unkempt and unsightly she must have looked at the moment. Even though they were husband and

wife, she was still embarrassed to have him see her like that.

She lowered her eyes to avert his gaze, thinking that as long as she did not look at him, she could pretend he was

not looking at her either.

‘Yes, this is how it must be,’ she thought in a bid to comfort herself.

However, Vicky’s evasive behavior made Tyler very upset.

“Vicky, are you disappointed at the fact that I was the one who got you out of there?”

“What?” She looked up at Tyler. “Why would I be disappointed?”

“Because you were hoping for a certain someone to save you instead.”

“Who are you talking about?”

Suddenly, she remembered the maid standing in the crowd smiling at her when Tyler carried her away.

That maid was very likely to work for the mysterious person, but who exactly was the mysterious person?

Tyler became even more upset when Vicky made no response. Instead, her mind seemed to be elsewhere. He

thought she must be thinking about that mysterious person again.

All of a sudden, he lowered his head and bit down on her lip harshly.

The pain pulled Vicky out of her thoughts. She turned around only to be met with a pair of deep, dark eyes.
