Chapter 554
Alex stood his ground fearlessly. âAnd if I donât?â
âYouâll regret it.â âBefore that happens, Iâll make sure that you and Gloria regret your entire lives!â Alex
waved his hand, and the two men who were retraining Gloria dragged her toward the deck as though
they were just moving a lifeless object.
Gloria paled at the pain, but she bit onto her lower lip to keep herself from making a sound.
Alex turned and looked at Vicky. âVicky, Iâm going to teach them a lesson for you today!â
âAlexâ¦â Vicky wanted to say something else, but he strode off.
The sea breeze ruffled Gloriaâs long hair, and she almost looked like a fragile porcelain doll at the
moment.
The waves rocked the boat, and the ocean seemed to have transformed into a beast lurking in the
dark, waiting for its prey.
âTyler, you have two choices. Sign the divorce agreement and I let this woman go, orâ¦â He sneered. âI
sink your sweetheart in the ocean.â
It was nighttime, and the visibility in the ocean was low, so it would be impossible for anyone to be
rescued if they fell into the sea. One could potentially die.
âAlex,â Vicky called out. âMaybe we shouldnât-â
âVicky, you said you didnât want to destroy Gloriaâs hands,â he interjected, âso I listened. Howeverâ¦â
He lowered his voice and stressed, âYou have to remember something, Vicky. Being merciful toward
your enemies will come back to bite you. Weâre going to be dragged into Tylerâs pace if we delay this
any further⦠By then, we wonât be able to leave safely.â
Vicky understood what he said, but she did not want to risk someone elseâs life regardless of how much
she wanted to leave Tyler.
Spotting the concerned look on Vickyâs face, Alex mistook it as her worrying that she could be blamed.
âVicky, donât worry. This has nothing to do with you. Iâll take responsibility if something happens, and I
wonât let anyone blame you for this.â
Vicky opened her mouth to speak but decided against it in the end.
She was not scared of being blamed, because that was bound to happen from the moment she was
taken onto the ship by Alexâs men.
No one would believe she was innocent no matter what she said.
Alex walked over to Tyler with a smile and the divorce agreement. âTyler, make your choice now. Are
you signing this or not?â
