Chapter 220
The beautiful, slim woman stood in front of Vicky and smiled. “Is Miss Lynn alright?”
“Thank you for your help, Miss Young,” said Vicky, her expression flat.”
Cece is fine now.”
“Miss Shaw, can I have a word with you? In private?”
Vicky remained quiet for a few seconds and she looked at Cece. ‘Cece, wait for me outside.”
Cece gave Vicky a worried look before she nodded and left.
After Cece left, Vicky said, “Miss Young, what do you want to talk to me about?” Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
Sheila walked to the sink and, turning on the tap to wash her hands, asked,” Are you and Tyler fighting?’ i
Vicky’s pupils shrunk. She looked at Sheila with a straight face and did not answer.
From the mirror, Sheila could see Vicky’s expression.
She smiled. “Don’t misunderstand me, Miss Shaw. I don’t mean anything else. It’s just that Tyler didn’t help you when you were in trouble just now, so I guessed that you two are fighting. There’s no reason why Tyler won’t help you.”
Vicky replied plainly, “You do know him very well.”
Sheila’s voice was calm. “I’ve known him for many years, so I know his personality very well. Tyler yields to soft approaches but rejects force. There’s nothing good if you go straight on with him.”
“Are you here to pass on your experience?”
Sheila finished washing her hands and looked back at Vicky. “Miss Shaw, you don’t have to have so much hatred for me. I’m not your enemy, and you are not my enemy.”
“What are you trying to say?” Vicky said.
Sheila put her hair behind her ears and said softly, “I mean, Tyler doesn’t love me or you. It’s useless for us to fight endlessly, so why can’t we try to coexist peacefully? It’s a good thing for us and Tyler.”
Vicky deadpanned at Sheila, finding her words downright ridiculous.
“Coexist peacefully? Sheila Young, did I hear you wrongly? Are you saying you can accept Tyler having a wife and a lover in the same picture?”
Sheila put on a helpless look. “Miss Shaw, I already explained to you that there’s nothing between Tyler and me. He’s just being nice to me to compensate me.”
She paused and stared directly into Vicky’s eyes. “He’s told me he’s not going to marry me or divorce you.”
It took Vicky a while to digest what Sheila said.
“So?” She could not hide the disdain in her expression. “What, you decide to accept this situation and relationship?”
Sheila frowned. “Vicky Shaw, I’ve explained many times. There’s nothing between me and Tyler, and we never overstepped the boundary. Why are you still unsatisfied?”
The way she looked at Vicky had turned from calm to ferocious.
“You should know Tyler isn’t going to abandon me. If I’m not wrong, the reason you and Tyler fight this time is because of me. It’s totally unnecessary, isn’t it? I’m sure I don’t have to tell you how good it is to be
Tyler’s wife. You should know better.
“If Tyler and I weren’t here today, you do know what’s going to happen to you and Cece, right?”
“Is he the one asking you to talk to me about this?’ said Vicky pointedly, cutting her off from continuing.
Sheila was stunned at this sudden question, yet she understood what Vicky meant.
“No.” Her voice was soft. “I’m saying this on my own accord.”
“If this is your decision, then…you’re not as ambitious as I think you are.”
Sheila raised an eyebrow. ‘What do you mean?”
Vicky smiled. “Since you know how good it is to be Tyler’s wife, have you never thought of fighting to be his wife?”
Sheila looked at Vicky and said nothing for a while. Seconds later, she said, “Tyler said he’s not having a divorce-‘
“There’s no definitive saying in this world,’ interrupted Vicky once more.” Everything can happen if you want to.”
Sheila looked at her for a long time again. “I don’t have any power or support. The advantage that I used to have is gone too. It’s impossible for Tyler to get a divorce and marry me. The only thing I have left is the guilt he had, yet it’s not enough for him to sacrifice his benefit to marry me.”
