However, the discomfort continued to leave Vicky as pale as sheets.
Vicky rinsed her mouth and splashed her face with water. At that moment, a towel was handed to her.
âThank you.â Vicky assumed it was Jade and instinctively thanked her. However, when she caught a
glimpse of the tall figure that approached, she fell noticeably silent.
After drying her face, Vicky returned to the dining room. Even though she had no appetite, she forced
herself to eat as best as she could.
She could not help but think back to her first pregnancy when she had hardly experienced any
symptoms. There was no sleepiness and no morning sickness.
She was young and inexperienced at the time and did not even realize she was pregnant. This time,
she felt unusually uncomfortable.
Seeing her struggle with her food, Tyler finally spoke. âIf you canât eat, donât force yourself. Eat when
youâre hungry later.â
Vicky glanced at him but ultimately did not push herself.
After finishing breakfast, Vicky was about to head upstairs. However, Tyler suddenly called out to her.
âWait a moment.â
She turned to look at him. âDo you need something?â
Tyler handed her an envelope.
Vicky took it and found that it contained all of her identification documents and her old phone, which
had long run out of battery.
Vicky raised an eyebrow at him. âWhy are you giving me these things?â
âChange into some clothes. Weâre going to the Civil Administration Office later.â
Vicky trembled slightly and questioned sharply, âTyler, what do you mean by this?â
âLetâs remarry first. We can have the wedding ceremony after the child is born.â
Vicky could not stop the laugh that escaped her. âWhy? So you can humiliate me on our wedding day
again?â
âI told you that all dramas between us end here.â
Vicky stared at him disdainfully. âRight. You think it ends here, and I have no choice but to accept that.
Now that youâve had your fun, you want to remarry me. Am I nothing but a puppet to you?â
Tyler frowned. âYou donât want to remarry me?â
âThatâs right.â
Tyler looked at her. âThatâs not how you felt a while ago.â
âA while agoâ¦â Vicky closed her eyes and chuckled bitterly. âYes, a while ago.â
Tylerâs voice turned cold. âYou donât want to remarry me? Do you want our child to be born as an
illegitimate child?â
Vicky glared at Tyler. âItâs simple. After the child is born, custody goes to me. Although I may not be as
wealthy as you, Iâm still capable of providing him with a carefree life.â
âAbsolutely not,â refused Tyler outright.
Vicky did not show any surprise or disappointment and fell silent.
Tylerâs brow furrowed, and his expression darkened. âVicky, thereâs an opportunity now to give the child
a legitimate status. Are you really willing to let him or her be born out of wedlock, subjected to ridicule
from others, instead of remarrying me?â
Vicky was amused by Tylerâs question. She did not want to whine about her fate as she knew what
drove Tyler to do what he did. Frankly, she could even sympathize with his actions.
However, that did not mean she could simply forgive and forget as if nothing happened.
âIâve thought about it.â Vicky stared into his eyes and drawled, âIâve thought about remarrying you and
starting fresh, but you shattered that possibility with your own hands.â
Tears welled up in her eyes, but they never fell. âBack when you first sought revenge on me, you didnât
go all out. Donât you think I can tell you clearly left no room for hope or escape this time?â
