"No matter what, I'm his wife... He won't hurt me."
"No way," Alex flat-out refused. "I'd never make a woman my scapegoat. Over my dead body!"
Alex knew he was no match for Tyler, but he was no fool either.
Vicky had lost all her memories and would have never left with Alex had Alex's men not kidnapped her by mistake. Since Vicky was hardly responsible for what happened, she was simply dragged into the situation by Alex.
Not only had he failed to help Vicky, but he also caused her troubles, and he refused to blame it all on Vicky to save himself in the end.
Vicky studied the look on his face and smiled.
"I won't be a scapegoat; we're just helping each other out as friends. Alex, your life matters most to me. Do you want to get killed by Tyler? If you die, how are you going to rescue me in the future? Don't worry. I'm telling you to blame it on me because I'm confident that... Tyler won't hurt me."
"Vicky..." Alex wanted to argue, but the ship shook violently all of a sudden, and Vicky fell to the floor.
Alex immediately helped her up. "Vicky, are you alright?"
She nodded. "Yeah."
"How touching." A familiar echoed in the air. "Despite the circumstances, you still feel the need to cling onto one another."
Vicky's lashes fluttered as she frantically turned to find Tyler staring at her expressionlessly.
