“No way.”
Unable to summon the strength to push him away, Vicky closed her eyes and leaned helplessly against his chest. The scent of blood filled her nose, and she felt devastated like she never did before.
The night was quiet and peaceful. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
Vicky looked up at Tyler after tending to his wounds. “Tyler…”
“It doesn’t hurt,” he said. “I knew what I was doing.”
Vicky’s lips curled into a cold sneer. “Am I supposed to compliment you on your great skills with knives?”
“…” Tyler fell into silence.
“I’m tired of this.” She looked down. “Tyler, I can’t accept living with a man who tortures me when he loses control and mutilates himself when he’s sober.”
Tyler’s heart sank.
“Let’s just-“
“I won’t allow it!” he shouted, interrupting her words.
His gaze darkened with malevolence and ferocity. As he looked into her eyes, he pronounced every word with intention.
“I won’t allow you to entertain the idea of leaving me, ever.”
Frightened by his intensity, Vicky paled and froze.
Tyler instantly realized that he had forgotten, once again, that she despised threats and coercion.
Realizing this, Tyler’s tense expression eased. “Vicky, don’t leave me, alright?”
His voice took on a softer, more alluring tone. The gaze he directed at her intentionally adopted a gentler quality.
He knew, deep down, what kind of man she favored.
However, he never liked pretending and wanted to reveal his most authentic self to her.
Predictably, Vicky wavered, and Tyler’s eyes dimmed slightly.
He disliked this pretense, but for her, he could don the mask and become the type of person she desired.
Slowly closing the distance between them, he wore an enchanting smile and murmured, “Tell me anything you dislike about me. I’ll change. I promise.” He reached out to grab her hand and continued, “Vicky, promise me you won’t say such things again, okay?”
Entranced, Vicky came close to nodding in agreement.
However, she glimpsed a fleeting trace of obsession in his eyes and suddenly snapped back to her senses.
She knew there were certain things about him he could never change.
“Can you really…change?” she asked.
Believing she had changed her mind, he nodded. “Yes.”
“Since you believe you can change, then… Let’s proceed with the divorce procedures. Once I’m certain you’ve truly transformed as you claim, we can consider getting married again.”
The tender facade shattered instantly. The moment he heard the word ‘divorce’, he could not contain his anger.
“Vicky, do you really think I’m that stupid?” His gaze darkened once again, and his whole demeanor shifted.” Give up on trying to fool me into divorcing you!”
Vicky had not anticipated his temper to shift so quickly. She flinched at the sight of his undisguised predatory gaze.
She chose not to further provoke him and instead averted her gaze. “It’s getting late. Let’s rest.”
As she rose, Tyler caught her from behind and whispered huskily, “Vicky, you have fully recovered, right?”
