Chapter 70
It had been some time since Vicky last called him. They had not spoken to one
another since the day they put everything on the table.
Tyler stared at his vibrating phone.
Vicky always contacted him whenever she wanted something and would cast
him aside as soon as he fulfilled his purpose.
Instead of answering the phone, Tyler simply said to the manager, ’ Carry on.’
The manager glanced at Tyler gingerly, noticing the dark expression on Tyler’s
face. He gulped and continued to report.
Enter title…
Five minutes later, someone knocked on the door hastily.
Harry rushed into the office and whispered into Tyler’s ear, “Mister Hart, Missus
Hart has been in an accident.”
Everything felt like it hurt.
Pain pierced through her from head to toe, and through the misery, Vicky
regained consciousness.
Still, she could hear a distant voice saying, “Mister Hart, Missus Hart has
suffered severe injuries. Though her bones are intact, she’ll have a few scars
after she recovers.”
The sound of the conversation came to a sudden halt, and after a while, she
saw a man walking over to her. “How are you feeling?”
Unable to focus, she mumbled, “Hurts…”
Tyler scowled and turned to the doctor. ‘Are there any painkillers?”
The doctor hesitated and said, ‘There are severe side effects for overdose in
painkillers, and since Missus Hart has been in the hospital too frequently in
recent times, I don’t think we should put her on any more painkillers…”
After a moment of silence, Tyler said, “Alright. You may go.”
Once the doctor left, the room returned to silence and Tyler looked down to
study her slim cheek. “Rest. I’ll handle everything else.”
Vicky moved her lips to speak but could not bring herself to make a sound
through the pain, so she closed her eyes once again.
Vicky was severely injured mostly from being beaten with a belt.
Jason had not shown any mercy at all. Had the people inside the room not been
quick enough to report the issue to the manager, she might have been beaten to
death.
She did not get out of bed until one week later, and throughout that period of
time, Tyler came to visit her every day and would stay the night next to her.
When Tyler headed for work, Nanny Paterson would take his place to look after
Vicky.
She suffered different degrees of wounds all over her body and needed to apply
ointment on all of them to prevent infection. Since the ointment was often
applied at night, it was usually done by Tyler.
Vicky tried to protest but eventually gave up.
One day, Tyler arrived later than usual because of work, so Vicky asked for
Nanny Paterson’s help to apply the ointment. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
However, they heard the sound of the door opening as soon as Vicky took off
her hospital gown.
Tyler was the only one who would enter the room without knocking.
Nanny Paterson turned to look at the door and spotted Tyler walking over.”
Mister Hart.”
Tyler narrowed his eyes in displeasure when he saw Nanny Paterson taking
Vicky’s clothes off. “What are you two doing?”
Sensing the change in Tyler’s mood, Nanny Paterson immediately explained.
