Chapter 567

“In any case, you were kidnapped because of me…so I’m supposed to apologize to you,” Vicky said

hoarsely.

“You don’t have to force yourself to do so,” Gloria said.” Tyler told me you had nothing to do with this.”

“But you don’t believe him, right?”

After a few moments of silence, Gloria said, “Tyler looked into it and found no record of contact

between you and Alex before he returned, so you couldn’t have made him do anything. Alex Torres did

all that on his own…” She paused and turned to look at Vicky. “You thought that Tyler would believe

whatever I said, is that it?” She chuckled. “Despite being married to him for so long, you still don’t know

him any better than I do.”

“What happened in the past?” Vicky asked.

“Tyler made it quite clear,” Gloria said. “Did you think that I’d lie to you in front of him?”

“I can tell that you’re still in love with him. The truth about the misunderstanding back then came out, so

why didn’t you two end up together?”

“Why?” Gloria narrowed her eyes bitterly. “Because you two had just broken up at the time, and I didn’t

believe him to forget about you so soon because I was still upset that he got the wrong person to begin

with. On top of that, I wanted to know if what we felt about each other could survive the

test, but…I was just too naive.” Gloria stared at Vicky sharply. “Vicky, I regret everything. I should’ve

never given you the chance.”

With that, she turned around and stared out the window. “If that’s all you need to say, you can go now.”

Vicky stood by the bed and felt her throat running dry.”… Alex was shot twice, and Tyler has him right

now. I don’t even know if Alex is still alive. Can you please help to ask Tyler to let Alex go?”

Amused, Gloria said, “Vicky, are you trying to ask that I beg for mercy on behalf of my kidnapper? Do I

look like a saint to you?”

“I know you’re the victim here and I shouldn’t even ask for your help on this, but Tyler won’t see me nor

would he listen. I’ve run out of options. Regardless of what happened, Alex is my childhood friend, and

he did all this for my sake. I can’t just leave him to die.”

She looked Gloria in the eyes. “If you’re willing to help, I can promise to do anything in return within my

power.”

In the evening, Gloria heard someone knocking on her door once again.

Her eyes lit up and she turned to stare at the door to find Tyler walking in elegantly. “Tyler.”

Tyler would always visit her at the same time every day.

He nodded and set a bag on the table. “I brought you dinner.”

Gloria grabbed the bag and was stunned for a moment when she saw the logo on the bag. “This is…”

“I happened to be near the restaurant, so I bought you this.”

Tears welled in her eyes. “Thank you.”

For the past two days, she had been eating plain food and casually mentioned that she wanted food

from a certain restaurant.

To her bewilderment, Tyler brought her food from the exact restaurant she mentioned.

Tyler glanced at the time and said, “Rest well. I should get going now.”

He would visit her every day but would never stay for long.

Gloria stared at him from the back and blurted out, “Tyler.” He stilled and turned around to look at her.

“What is it?”
