Vicky looked up with a cold gaze. "Miss Starling, this is between me and Tyler. Outsiders should stay out of it."
Aurora sneered. "Vicky Shaw, do you have any clue what it means to own thirty percent of a company's shares? Forget the bonus each year! You can earn a great fortune just by selling the shares! You haven't contributed anything to Hart Corporation's development, so what makes you think that you deserve that much?"
Vicky glanced at her. "I deserve that much because I'm Tyler's wife. That's all."
Aurora was rendered speechless.
She turned to look at Tyler and noticed that there was no sign of anger on Tyler's face. Rather, he was smiling instead.
"Vicky, does it mean that you will sign the divorce agreement if you get all that?" He asked.
She froze as she heard the word "divorce" as she realized that it had been a long time since she considered it. Back when she had not recovered her memories, Tyler had repeatedly snuffed out any thought of getting a divorce.
Her grip on the pen tightened and she felt a sharp pain in her heart.
He would go to great lengths when he did not want a divorce, but now that he wanted one, she was expected to accept it obediently. Vicky refused to make it so convenient for him.
Vicky lifted her gaze. "Exactly. Otherwise, there's nothing left to discuss."
The man's gaze was as deep as the abyss, impossible to read. "Three percent is enough for you to spend recklessly and live worry-free for the rest of your life."
Vicky insisted, "I want thirty percent."
"Five percent. No more."
Vicky leaned back. "Then there's no point in continuing this discussion."
Tyler's eyelashes fluttered as he spoke calmly, "Vicky, one should know where to draw the line. I'm still willing to compensate you for now. In time, these compensations may no longer be an option for you."
