Instinctively, she could tell that Tyler was not upset and was even a little amused, so she could not help but wonder if she was imagining things.
In her mind, Tyler should have scolded Vicky with a dark look on his face before saying something along the lines of 'Vicky, even if you cling onto me like this, I will never love you' or 'What are you trying to do to Gloria now, you vicious woman? How dare you bully someone as kind as Gloria? Apologize to her right now!'.
Cece's mind instantly ran wild with imagination.
Just then, Gloria said coldly, "It's your choice to go wherever you want."
Vicky nodded. "Where is this concert you're going to?"
Gloria informed her of the venue and time expressionlessly.
Vicky frowned thoughtfully. "It's quite a hassle to take a taxi there from here. Since you two are going anyway, why don't you give us a lift?"
"It's Tyler's car, so you should be asking for his approval."
Vicky looked up at Tyler. "Mister Hart, since you are going there anyway, do you mind giving me and Cece a lift?"
Tyler stared at her with his brooding dark eyes and said, "Why should I?"
Cece froze at how hurtful his words were.
Vicky did not get offended and simply smiled at the man next to her. "You should because I'm still your wife."
Cece applauded Vicky’s response inwardly, while Gloria's expression darkened.
The look in Tyler's eyes darkened, but he did not respond.
Sometime later, the waiter served their dishes.
