Gloriaâs nails dug into Vickyâs skin without her realizing it, and she gritted her teeth. âHe said that Iâve
gone mad and electrocuted me, calling that treatment⦠He wants to make me insane so that I canât
ruin his plan. He doesnât want to fulfill his promise!â
Gloria looked up abruptly at Vicky. âVicky, I donât want him anymore. Get me out⦠Get me out of here! I
want to play piano. I donât want to be locked in here like some lunatic!â
Gloria was hysterical and was clearly in shock, so Vicky could not tell if she was telling the truth.
âCan⦠Can there be some kind of mistake?â Vicky asked hesitantly.
âNo! Heâd come here every other day to see if Iâd gone mad⦠Vicky, he was responsible for causing
your memory loss! He resents you for dumping him back then and wants to retaliate! Do you know
what his plan is? He tortures you and puts you in misery, only to care for you later on. Once you fall
back in love with him and can no longer live without him, heâll dump you! Heâs all hot and cold because
he wants you wrapped around his fingers. Nothing he says is true⦠He owes me, and this is how he
treats me. Once he gets what he wants, he wonât show you any mercy! Heâs a cruel monster⦠I regret
it⦠I regret everythingâ¦â
She grabbed onto Vickyâs hand with all her might. âVicky, get me out of here, okay?â
Vicky had never thought that Gloria, who used to be so prideful, would end up this way. She felt
conflicted at the sight.
âI donât think I am capable of saving you,â Vicky whispered. âIâll inform Harvey about you once I get out.â
Gloria nodded. âOkay.â
Vicky glanced at her own wrist and said, âI should get going now.â
Before coming, she had removed her bracelet with the mysterious manâs help.
According to the man, there was a tracker in the bracelet, so Tyler knew where she went every single
day.
To not raise suspicion, Vicky wore the bracelet most of the time, or Tyler would soon notice that she
was aware of the tracker.
She went to the door and was about to leave when she heard noises coming from the first floor.
Startled, she immediately backed away from the door and turned to look at Gloria. âSomeone is here.
Are they here for you?â
Vicky had figured that Tyler would come to the mansion every other day, and since he had just been to
the mansion the day before, he should not be coming this day.
Gloria paled and mumbled to herself, âThey wonât send food here at this time. Tyler was here
yesterday, so who can it be?â
âForget it.â Vicky glanced around. âWhere can I hide?â
âIn the closet.â
Not daring to wait another moment, Vicky darted into the closet, and at the same time, the door flew
open.
Footsteps approached, and Vicky spotted a familiar figure outside.
She was suspicious as to whether Gloria was telling the truth earlier, but at this moment, she started to
believe Gloria.
âGloria.â Tylerâs melodious voice rose. âYou seem nervous today.â
Vickyâs heart sank.
