Chapter 47
Sebastian furrowed his brows and gave it some thought before speaking, “Mother.”
Missus Mills gave him a reproachful look. “Vicky’s mother and I were best friends when we were young. I also saw Vicky growing up since she was a baby. Even though we did not have the chance to make
Vicky my daughter–in–law, I still see her like she is my daughter. Do you think I will do anything to harm
her?”
There was nothing wrong with the first part of the things Missus Mills said. It was the later part…that
sounded a little off.
If Tyler were not there, it would be fine for Missus Mills to say those things. Since Tyler was here, it did
not seem appropriate for her to say those things. Like she was implying something and even more trying
to sow discord.
After saying those, Missus Mills looked at Tyler again. “Mr. Hart, would you mind if I borrow Vicky away
from you to catch up?”
As usual, Tyler looked calm and remote, without any expression. No one could tell what he was actually
thinking. “Do whatever you like,” he said before leaving.

“Mother…” Sebastian still felt the need to stop his mother.
On the other hand, Vicky answered the question and stopped Sebastian from talking further. “Sure.”
Missus Mills gave Sebastian a warning look before walking away with Vicky as they held hands together.
In the lounge, Missus Mills started talking while she made tea. “It looks like the relationship between you
and Tyler is getting better. You two actually attended this party together today.”
The way she brewed the tea looked so elegant and clean. There was a feeling that no one knew how to
describe.
Everyone knew Vicky and Tyler were not exactly having a happily ever after type of marriage. Even when
they had to attend the same event, they never arrived together.
The fragrance of the hot tea emitted into the air.
Vicky sat on the chair and said, “You should be happy that my relationship with Tyler is getting better.
Who knows, maybe your son might feel hopeful of rekindling back with me if I have a divorce… I bet
that’s the last thing you’ll like to see.”
Missus Mills was pouring the tea into the cup as Vicky was speaking. Her finger shivered, and she
accidentally spilled some tea on the coffee table. She cocked up her head to look at Vicky’s beautiful and
exquisite face. “I heard from Sebastian that you’ve lost your memory after the car crash. Guess it was
just something you said to fool that stupid boy.”
It was impossible for Vicky to tell the irony in her words. She just smiled.
“Losing my memory does not mean I can’t think. There are many things that I can know just by looking
back at old news–like how you treat me with kindness. However, after my family fell, you started to stop.
your son from being close to me and even started a scandal to get me to cut ties with him…”
Her cyes turned cold as she looked at Missus Mills while still keeping a smile on her face. “Am I right,
Missus
Mills?”
Missus Mills looked into Vicky’s eyes and suddenly smiled. “I was wondering if you really had lost your
memory or you were just pretending to lose your memory. From the looks of it…you really don’t
remember anything.”

Missus Mills sighed. “People said that I fawn upon the rich and powerful. You might say I am a vain
person. Be close to your family before it fell down, and immediately draw a line after your family was
down like I never knew any of you. Even if I’m really this type of person, how hard is it to put on a fake
show?”
Vicky’s pupils shook. “What do
you
mean?”
“You’re a smart girl. There are things that I don’t need to say.” Missus Mills took a sip of the tea. “But
since you’ve lost your memory and do not remember anything, I think I should warn you.”
She looked at Vicky with a serious face. “Vicky, I didn’t help you out because I was a cruel person. The
Mills family could not afford to risk it because of the people you offended. Look at how your family turned
out. Look at the families that were close to your family. None of them survived. And…”
She paused for a while before continuing, “And your ex–fiance with such an amazing talent. Think about
how he ended up.“
