Click! The sound of the doorknob opening was heard.
Vicky seldom locked the door to the study because she was in her own home.
As she looked in the direction of the door, she saw Tyler walking into the room with a towel covering his
body. Within seconds, a thought struck her, and her gaze shrunk.
âI⦠Iâm not done with my work yet,â her voice trembled. âDonât wait for me. Go and rest now.â
Tyler ignored what she said and approached her. Without any warning, he placed his hand on the back
of her head and kissed her.
As she expected. The only reason he came back home with her was because he wanted to sleep with
her.
Well, she was not surprised. He was that kind of guy, after all.
Out of the blue, a picture appeared in her mind -it was the night Tyler slept with Gloria.
âDid he also kiss Gloria this fervently?â she thought.
Suddenly, she felt inexplicably suffocated and disgusted.
However, she could not avoid his kisses because he was grabbing her head tightly. She did not
struggle, remained still like a puppet, and let Tyler kiss her lips and neck.
Soon, Tyler noticed how still she was. âWhatâs wrong?â he asked, his voice gruff. His breath was warm
and hot, just like the way he was looking at her.
Finally, she averted her gaze and said, âTyler, weâre divorced.â
She never thought about mentioning this, butâ¦this was the only time most appropriate.
Tylerâs eyes dulled at this, but soon, they returned to their usual dark tranquility.
âTheyâre not processed yet.â 1
âBut youâve already signed,â insisted Vicky.
Tylerâs body was extremely hot, but his gaze grew colder. He touched Vickyâs cheek and looked down
from above. âThe divorce procedure isnât finalized yet, so youâre still required to fulfill your duty as my
wife.â
A flashback of when Tyler helped Gloria slice the steak appeared before Vickyâs eyes. She resisted
Tyler even more.
âIâm not feeling well today.â Vicky clenched her fists so tightly that her fingernails pierced into her palms.
âIf you really want it, you can go find Gloria.â
Tyler looked at her with his dark and deep eyes for a really long time until he said, âWeâre not divorced
yet.â
âSoon,â Vicky said immediately.
âYou know what kind of person Gloria is. She minds about having sex before marriage.â
âBut that night, you guysâ¦â Vicky tried to persuade him.
âShe was out of options,â he muttered huskily as he lowered his head and let his lips touch her face
softly. âEven if the divorce is a done deal tomorrow, youâ¦still have to fulfill your duty and responsibility
today.â
Vicky tried to say something, but Tyler pressed his lips against hers and stopped her from talking.
After that, he carried her back to the bedroom and helped her shower, but he then placed her on the
bed and forced himself on her. He kissed her lips as if there was no tomorrow.
Vicky had lost her ability to fight back.
Suddenly, a ringtone broke out, disrupting the heated atmosphere.
Tyler took his phone, and his finger froze when he saw the person calling from the screen.
After a slight hesitation, he accepted the call.
âTyler! Do you know something bad has happened to Gloria?â
As soon as the call was connected, he could hear Seleneâs voice from the other side of the phone.
He furrowed his brow. âWhat happened?â
âGloria went back home by herself just now, and a pervert followed behind herâ¦â she sobbed. âThe
pervert followed her to her house. When Gloria opened her door, the pervert pushed her and barged
into her house. He nearly⦠Nearlyâ¦â 3
Selene could not finish her sentence.
Abruptly, her tone shifted as she said, sounding reprimanding, âI heard the pervert who followed Gloria
is your business partner. Tyler, how urgent was the matter you had to attend to? Why did you leave
Gloria alone in the restaurant? Do you know how scared she was?â
