Chapter 211
Mister Kirby’s handsome profile was blurred as his side profile seemed blurred by the light.
“Sorry, a cat ran past us,’ he said.
By then, they were already within the mansion compound. Fewer people were on the road with trees overgrowing, affecting the vision.
Vicky thus did not overthink it. “Nevermind. As long as we’re safe.”
Mister Kirby had reduced the speed because he was afraid of being in another accident. As a result, the duration of the trip got longer.
He seemed to be interested in Vicky and Tyler’s relationship as while he steadily continued to drive, he asked again, “If he disagrees, why is he with another woman?”
Vicky did not know Mister Kirby was someone who liked to gossip. In his defense, however, it was not a secret.
“Hart Corporation is expanding. It’s not suitable for him to be involved in gossip or bad news.” This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Tyler was a cold-hearted person. Other than the woman in the photo Vicky saw in his study-the woman with her back facing the camera-no one was more important than profit to him. Not even her or Sheila.
“Hmph.” Mister Kirby snorted, the sound in his throat dark and evidently of displeasure.
Vicky was baffled by this. “What are you laughing at?’
“Nothing. I just think.Jt’s very lame of him.”
Vicky looked at him. “Then, what about you? Are you going to give the bracelet you bought to someone you like?”
“No,” Mister Kirby answered.
Vicky was even more puzzled. “Then why did you want to buy it?”
“You probably won’t believe it, but that bracelet was from me to someone else. Then, I lost her and the bracelet too. Earlier on, I heard the news
about the bracelet, so I thought about buying it…and giving it back to her.”
“Do you…still like her?”
Mister Kirby smiled. “I owe her a lot.”
“Is that why you didn’t have a girlfriend for many years?”
“Probably,” Mister Kirby said.
After hearing that, Vicky got to know another side of him. ‘He’s very loyal to a relationship,’ she thought.
Mister Kirby continued to say while driving, “I’m not going to comment anything about you and your husband, but you can come to me if you need help with anything.”
Vicky thought the man was just being understanding and thus smiled.” Thank you.”
Since Mister Kirby drove slowly, it was way past twelve that night when Vicky finally reached home. She was exhausted; not just physically but mentally as well, especially after seeing Tyler and Sheila together at the auction today.
While she was in the car just now, she read the news on her phone. Within just a couple of hours, news about Tyler splurging for Sheila was already headlining.
She could not possibly balance her emotions like she did in the past for the sake of profit. Hence, there was no reason for this marriage to continue anymore. She started to think about getting a divorce.
When she opened the bedroom door, she was surprised to see the room was bright with lights on. At the same time, she saw a man standing in front of the window. He had a cigarette in his fingers, and smoke from the cigarette lingered around his handsome face.
She stopped walking.
It was then she caught that pungent scent from the cigarette. She never liked the smell of smoke, and she did not know Tyler smoked. At least from her memory, she never saw him smoke before.
Not only was he smoking at this moment, but he even did it in the bedroom as well.
He totally revealed his true ‘lame’ image at this very moment. Maybe he just did not think it was necessary to hide his true self anymore after his true face was discovered.
Vicky walked into the room and opened the window. When she passed Tyler, she smelled a faint perfume scent.
