Harvey was very efficient. It did not matter that it was nighttime and no one was working. He still had ways to help Vicky to file for the divorce when he had all the documents. It only took him a night to file the divorce paper and send the divorce certificate to Tyler's mansion.
Tyler played with the divorce certificate nonchalantly. He curved his thin lips into a smile that could scare a child. His eyes gleamed coldly and maliciously.
Vicky's heart pounded heavily when all she heard was Tyler's cold voice, and she did not even see his expression at all.
"Tyler, we can't be together." Her voice was soft. "Please let me go."
"Let you go?" Tyler sneered. "Why didn't you think of letting me go when you climbed onto my bed and forced me to marry you?"
"I was naive and stupid. I'm sorry," Vicky said.
"What's the use of saying you're 'sorry' after you killed a person?" Tyler asked.
Vicky's fingers turned white. "You don't love me anyway! Why do you want to keep me by your side? You can have any woman you want!"
Tyler's voice was indifferent. "Probably because a man is born with the love to challenge the impossible. We yearn for things we can't get."
Vicky's breaths grew labored. Just as she wanted to say something, someone tapped her shoulder.
Harvey, standing beside her, shook his head.
Vicky understood and said nonchalantly, "Tyler, we're divorced now and are no longer related. Don't ever call me in the future. Bye."
"Vicky Shaw! How dare you—"
Vicky swiftly hung up, not allowing Tyler to speak any further.
"Maybe he's trying to stall us," murmured Harvey. "We need to leave now."
A few steps later, Vicky remembered something and said, "This phone is from him. Maybe there's a tracking device in it. I should…throw it away."
