Chapter 487: Chapter 489

Selene was slightly annoyed. “Gloria, you lost because you didn’t show initiative! Had you so much as

shown him signs that you were in love with him as well, you two would’ve been married and have kids

by now!”

Gloria remained quiet for a while and said, “I was wrong then, but Tyler is married now.”

“So what if he is?” scoffed Selene. “People can get a divorce. Besides, Tyler doesn’t love Vicky at all,

and Vicky stole everything she has now.

She’ll have to give them back eventually. She did the same thing to you, so she can’t blame you for

taking back what’s yours.”

“Even if she stole him from me, she is his legal wife now,” Gloria said calmly. “Tyler and Vicky have

grown past the age of throwing everything away for love. Tyler…doesn’t want a divorce.” 1

“That’s because you waited too long to come home!” Selene stared at her.” Gloria, the relationship

between Vicky and Tyler isn’t as harmonious as you imagine. Feelings need to be cultivated over time,

and you haven’t come home once throughout the years, so it’s only normal for Tyler’s feelings to fade. I

can tell that he still cares for you.”

“Is that so?”

“If he doesn’t care about you, why would he come all the way to stand witness for you just because I

called? Why would he agree to have lunch with us? Why would he agree to come to your birthday

party?” A contemptuous look appeared on Selene’s face.

“Vicky is a nobody. She’s just a fool when compared to you, and I’ve never seen anyone as shameless

as she is. She’s always taken whatever you like. You were close with Harvey back then, so she

shamelessly cheated her way into getting Harvey to get engaged with her. After that, Tyler started

pursuing you, so she turned her attention to Tyler instead! Gloria, you’re too soft and worry too much;

that’s how Vicky got the better of you. It’s bad enough that you were this way when you were young

because you didn’t know any better, but you can’t keep doing this.”

Gloria shook her head. “Let’s see how things go. I want to focus on my career right now.”

Selene sighed at Gloria’s stubbornness.

Tyler was about to return to work, but when he saw the empty screen on his phone, he eventually

decided to head back to the hospital and thought to himself, ’Maybe I’ve been too kind to Vicky for her

to throw a temper tantrum at me.’

As soon as his car entered the parking lot, his phone rang.

When he answered it, Jade’s panicked voice came through. “Mister Hart, something happened! Missus

Hart… She passed out!”

He froze and hurried his steps. “What happened?”

“I walked past Missus Hart’s room and wanted to ask you two what you’d like to have for lunch, so I

knocked, but no one came to the door. I realized something was wrong, so I went in and found her

passed out on the floor.”

‘Til be there right away,” he said darkly.

A few minutes later, Tyler arrived. Vicky was rushed to the emergency room while Jade waited outside.

“How is she?” he asked.

“The doctors are still working on her, so I don’t know. But…” Jade observed Tyler’s expression and said

gingerly, “Before they sent her into the ER, I think Missus Hart has come down with a fever.”

Half an hour later, the door to the room was pushed open and a doctor strode out.

“How is Vicky?” Tyler asked.

“Missus Hart is burning up, and we’re doing our best to bring her temperature down. Don’t worry, Mister

Hart.” 1

The doctors did their best, but despite their effort, Vicky’s fever burned through the whole day and

night, and her temperature had only risen.
