CHAPTER 71
“Since you’re later than usual, I thought I could help apply the ointment for
Missus Hart… I’ll leave this to you now that you’re here.”
Nanny Paterson hurried outside after explaining the situation. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Vicky was the one who asked Nanny Paterson to help her with it. Though she
was technically married to Tyler, they had not been intimate since she lost her
memories. She could not get used to taking her clothes off in front of him.
Tyler took off his jacket and went into the bathroom to wash his hands. He
sanitized his hands before proceeding to apply the ointment to Vicky’s wounds.
Enter title…
His fingers were beautifully long, and she could distinctly feel his cold touch on
her skin.
Tyler immediately stopped when he felt Vicky twitch. “Does it hurt?”
She looked down. ‘It’s fine.”
She tried her best to regain her composure, but the blush on her face soon
betrayed her.
Tyler was a sharp man, and when he noticed the way she looked away and the
blush on her face, he narrowed his eyes and smiled. “There’s no need to be shy.
You used to get yourself injured on purpose so that I’d apply ointment for you.
Besides…we’ve been married for three years. I’ve seen every inch of you there
is to see.”
Without another word, Tyler continued to apply ointment to her wounds.
He moved steadily, careful not to do anything out of line. He held onto the tube
of ointment and his dark, brooding eyes were fixated on the wounds without
making her uncomfortable.
Tyler was an extremely handsome man with features that looked as though they
had been carved into perfection, graced with a figure that rivaled that of models.
His presence was majestic.
With all combined, he attracted attention wherever he went.
For a moment, Vicky came to an understanding that any woman would throw
herself at this man’s feet-even if he showed her the smallest act of kindness.
The next day, Vicky turned on the television.
“Following the news that Hart Corporation had severed their partnership with
Hachett Group, the chairman of Hachett Group, Mister Jason, has been
involved in yet another scandal…”
Hearing the familiar name, Vicky was stunned and stopped herself from
changing the channel.
She had not asked about Jason since the day of the incident.
Though she did not know much about the business world, she did have a habit
of reading the news and knew that Hart Corporation had just partnered with
Hachett Group.
The Hachett family was one of the top families in Hatchland in terms of
influence and financial power, so if the partnership was terminated, Hart
Corporation would lose millions of dollars.
Vicky was not arrogant and would not allow herself to believe that Tyler had
done this for his wife, whom he did not love, as she did not worth much in his
eyes.
According to why Vicky had wandered into Jason’s room, Jessica explained that
she typed the wrong room number and had re-sent the message as soon as
she realized that, but all was too late by then.
Vicky did not know if Jessica was telling the truth. Moreover, since she was still
recuperating in the hospital, she had no energy to look into it.
She had thought that she could investigate after she was discharged, so she
was surprised to see the news report on the television. She listened to the news
reporter explaining the details and for a moment could not tell how she felt
about it. i
Meanwhile, in a certain room.
The tension in the air rose as Sheila looked at the man on the couch and
explained hastily, “Tyler, I have nothing to do with this!”
