    “Resort to violence?” Tyler repeated.


    She turned to look at Tyler with resignation. “I’m sorry, Tyler. I was hystericalst night and pped


    Miss Shaw across the face…”


    Maggie shot Vicky a look and muttered, “Miss Shaw keeps suspecting the nature of your rtionship


    with She and came to warn her not to trouble you no matter what happened, Mister Hart. Not long


    after that, She was kidnapped and she was just a woman who hadn’t been in such a situation before.


    She had no one and was on edge.


    “When Mister Hart finally rushed to her rescue and they were about to escape, Miss Shaw kept calling


    and exposed them to the kidnappers.


    That’s how Mister Hart got shot while protecting She…”


    She paused and said, “Miss Shaw, what you said was right. Mister Hart would’ve never gotten hurt if he


    hadn’t gone to rescue She, and it has nothing to do with your call. However…” She turned to look at


    Vicky in confusion. ’What happened yesterday, Miss Shaw, for you to keep calling Mister Hart? Were


    you in trouble?”


    She and Maggie worked together perfectly, and what seemed to be an apology contained arge


    amount of information.


    Not only had Maggie informed Vicky that Tyler was shot for trying to protect She, but her words also


    told Tyler that Vicky had visited She the day before, asking her to stop bothering Tyler. Her words


    also conveyed a message that Vicky had med everything on She and did not think that the


    ident urred because of her phone call.


    Vicky was impressed by how skilled the two were with their words.


    Tyler did not seem to be provoked by what they said, nor did he try to confront Vicky. He simply looked


    at her and asked, “Why did you call mest night?”


    He knew that Vicky would have never called him continuously if it was not important.


    Silence fell over the room as the three all focused on Vicky.


    Tyler simply wanted to find out what happened, while Maggie and She wondered what excuse Vicky


    mighte up with.


    After a few moments of silence, Vicky said casually, “Oh. I was kidnapped at the time. That’s why I kept


    calling you.”


    Time seemed to have frozen over, and different expressions appeared on the others’ faces.


    She was shocked, Maggie’s face was filled with contempt, while Tyler remained calm.


    His eyes remained trained on Vicky. “You were kidnapped?”


    “Yeah.”


    “Ha!” Maggie could no longer hold back herughter. “Miss Shaw, don’t you think your exnation is a


    bit too…far-fetched?” She scanned Vicky up and down mockingly. “She was kidnapped, and now


    you’re saying that you were kidnapped as well. All things aside, you’re standing right now unscathed,


    and you want to say that you were kidnapped?”


    The only injury Vicky suffered was the p across the face, which was witnessed by many.


    She had alsoe all the way here in the morning to apologize to Vicky because of that, so Vicky


    could not im that she was pped by the kidnappers.


    “It’s the truth,” Vicky said calmly.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    She knew that Tyler might not believe her if she said that she was kidnapped because she was not


    injured at all, but for some reason, she felt like telling the truth.
