Chapter 529
âDisappointed?â Vickyâs eyes were crystal-clear as she smiled. âArenât you supposed to be happy? No
matter how I take it, itâll never belong to me. Itâs time for me to return it to the rightful owner.â
With a different expression, Gloria said, âIf you donât harbor a grudge, why did you stab Tyler? You
should know he didnât do anything wrong to you. It was you who has been hurting him. I know youâve
forgotten everything, but that wonât change what has happened.â
âAre you fighting for him?â
âNo matter what grudges you have, you shouldnât have hurt someone with a knife,â she said, her tone
adamant. âVicky, no matter what, he is still your husband.â
âWhat you see is not necessarily the truth.â Vicky could not be bothered to explain in detail and instead
said, âHeâs still my husband, yes, so as my cousin, itâs inappropriate for you to interfere with our
marriage.â
Gloriaâs eyes bore into Vickyâs and said, âVicky Shaw. Tyler isnât a tool for you to have your revenge.â
Vicky furrowed her brow. This was not the first time she heard this from Gloria. The last time, Gloria
had said the same thing when Tyler was sent to the hospital after she stabbed him.
âDo you think Iâm using him to have my revenge on you?â Vicky asked.
âAre you not?â Gloria smiled faintly. âThe boy you liked confessed his love to me. Ever since then,
youâve been imitating me, insistent that you must have everything I have, even wearing the same
clothes as I did⦠If Iâm close with a guy, youâd try to get close to him too.â
Even when she was a student then, she did not have much interest in having a relationship. More
often, she preferred to be alone. Over these years, the only guys she was close with were just Harvey
and Tyler.
âWhy would you become Harveyâs fiancee when he was pursuing me? And how do you explain why
you ended up marrying Tyler in the end?â Gloria questioned.
There was no way Vicky could explainâ¦or maybe the truth was just what Gloria said-that she stole
everything from her due to jealousy.
Gloria looked at her and said, âI wonât ruin your marriage. You can either continue to be with Tyler or
have a divorce. I donât care. But thereâs one thing you mustnât do, and that is to hurt Tyler.â
âWho are you to be telling me this?â Vicky asked.
âA friend,â Gloria answered.
Vicky said faintly, âDonât you think youâre way over the boundary to be a friend to come and tell me
these things?â
Gloria held her breath.
Vicky looked away. âDid you bring me here to talk about this? Do you still want to discuss your outfit for
your performance?â
Obviously, Vicky was unwilling to talk more with Gloria. Just as Gloria wanted to say something else,
Tyler walked in after finishing talking on the phone. Gloria had no choice but to discuss her outfit.
Neither of them was aggressive like they were minutes ago, and neither of them mentioned anything
about what they just talked about.
Around 40 minutes later, someone knocked on the door. Gloria went to open the door.
In came the smiling Selene. âGloria, you said you were going to practice here for two hours. I was just
in the area, so I thought of coming over to visit you.â
She looked and there she saw Tyler in the room. Immediately, her smile faltered. âOh no, this doesnât
seem to be the right time for me to visit. Nevermind! I just remember
I have something else to do. Iâll get going, thenâ¦â
Gloria grabbed her from leaving. âSelene, Tyler is bringing me to meet with Maestro Warner today.â
Seleneâs eyes sparkled. âAre you referring to the Maestro Warner Iâm thinking of?â
