Tyler glanced at Vicky. "You're being so attentive and benign today."
"I have a favor to ask, so I can only lower myself… You taught me this."
Tyler took over the cup of tea from Vicky but did not drink it. Instead, he played with the cup. "What favor do you want to ask?"
Vicky looked at Tyler's face and pondered for a moment on what she wanted to say. "How is Alex now?"
Tyler answered faintly, "Not dead."
'Not dead.' That was all.
"He's learned his lesson. Can you—"
"Did you look for me just to talk about Alex?" he interjected coldly.
Vicky paused. After several seconds of silence, she lifted her head to look into Tyler's eyes. "Tyler, let's have a divorce."
Tyler's eyes darkened, but he did not reject it strongly like before. "Why?"
Vicky did not remember when was the last time they talked so peacefully.
Instead of answering the question, she instead asked, "Would we have been divorced if I didn't have an accident and lost my memory?"
"Yes," Tyler said while looking down at the teacup in his hand. "The police found your suitcase at the scene. If the accident didn't happen, you'd have already moved out."
Vicky mumbled to herself, "So that's what happened…"
Sometimes, she had a feeling that Tyler never wanted to have a divorce. In fact, he had strongly expressed his disagreement when she proposed to have a divorce every time. Yet, it was not because he had feelings for her. It was because of his unwavering will to possess her that this marriage continued.
When she knew they once dated for a year in the past, her thought changed and thought differently.
Her voice sounded awfully minute. "I thought you didn't want to leave me…"
