She batted her eyes and looked at Tyler. “Do you still intend on helping
Sasha?”
He scoffed mockingly and said, “If I agree to that, what else are you going to do
next to get what you want?”
She narrowed her eyes. “What do you mean?”
“This hospital is run by the Simmons family, and since Missus Hart has been
shoved down the stairs here, their reputation will be tarnished if they don’t
punish the culprit harshly. The Simmons family is well-known and respected

here in Stoneford City for being a righteous family, and since they know who did
this, they’re not going to let whoever did this run free.”
Tyler stood before her and lowered his gaze to study her expression. “I’ll have to
pay a big price if I insist on helping Sasha, and she’s not worth the trouble. You
know that, and that’s why you did this, right?”
Her breath caught for a moment, but she immediately regained her composure.
“Are you accusing me of framing Sasha for pushing me down the stairs?”
“No.”
She stared at him. “Do I have the ability to control minds and make Sasha do
it?”
“It’s not that hard to provoke her, but…” He paused for a moment and said,”
Don’t you think you’re rushing into this?”
“Rushing?”
“You’ve been fawning over me all this time for this exact moment, right?” he said
expressionlessly.
She stilled, but her fingers hidden underneath the cover twitched at his words.
After a while, she smiled and said, “Looks like you’ve had it all figured out.”
After spending some time with Tyler, she knew him like the back of her hand.
Though she did not expect to keep him in the dark for long, she was still
surprised that he found out about the truth so soon.
He bent down and leaned in closer to her. “Since the time you fell into the fool,
you suggested the agreement using the guilt I felt for you, but that has just been
a part of your plan to seek revenge against Sasha.
“You know that you can’t touch a hair of hers if I insist on protecting her, so you
turned your attention to me instead. Your hard work for the past month paid off
when I helped you during that party. You made a point of asking everyone to
apologize to you to see how much you mean to me, and to let everyone know
that they can’t bully you because you have my support.
You’ve been angry since you were pushed into that pool but decided to be
patient because you can’t fight me. If I guessed right, you’ve probably been
thanking Sasha and Sheila a lot for their ‘help’, haven’t you?”
He looked into her eyes, and she felt as though she was about to get lost in
those dark, brooding eyes.
After a few moments of silence, she said, “From the very beginning, I’ve always
known that I’m nothing but an annoying fly to you, so I’m surprised that you
chose to help Sasha and Sheila. It’s human nature, and I’d favor the ones who
are important to me, too.”
She looked up and added, “I was frustrated, resentful, and angry at first, but
then I found clarity. You don’t love, and I forced you into this marriage when you
clearly don’t want it. If you don’t love me, it doesn’t matter if I’m your wife; I reap
what I sew. Since I was the one who chose this path, I’ll have to finish it. I
caused everything that happened, so I didn’t expect you to help or side with
me.”
Her pale lips curled into a faint smile. “You can’t do anything to Sasha because
of Sheila, and I can understand that. But if that’s the case, I’ll have someone
else take care of her. Sasha isn’t all that important to you, and helping her out
once for Sheila’s sake should be the best you’re willing to do.”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
