Chapter 138

All the noises attracted the other guests, and they began to walk closer to the

three of them.

Tyler, on the other hand, was nowhere to be found, which gave Maria the boost

of courage she wanted.

“Miss Shaw, is this necessary? Miss Mayland is only here to perform for Tyler.

Everyone knows that he likes listening to piano music. It’s bad enough that you

don’t know how to play it. Isn’t it too much to forbid others from playing for him?”

she spoke, raising her voice.

Enter title…

Vicky stood in the middle of the crowd calmly. “Miss Sparks, you’ve just gotten

here, so why are you so sure that this is my fault? Have you stopped being an

actress and switched professions to become a director or something?’

Maria stilled and glared at her. “I wasn’t far away when I saw you approaching

Miss Mayland and pushing her toward the wine glass tower to prevent her from

performing,” said Maria as she turned to look at a certain spot. ’Those people

saw you as well. They’re all witnesses!”

Vicky had never laid eyes on the witnesses Maria referred to and realized that

Maria had come prepared. Those people whom she claimed to be witnesses

must have been bribed to agree to whatever she said ahead of time.

Vicky did not panic and smiled. “It’s not that I don’t want to believe you, Miss

Sparks. You once tried to frame me for stealing your bracelet in front of

everyone the time before, remember? Are you getting a kick out of this for you

to keep coming back for more?’ 1

Rendered speechless, Maria snarled, “Why you—!”

A lot of the people in the hall knew about the previous incident of how

Maria ended up humiliated for trying to accuse Vicky of a crime she did not

commit.

Just then, Nikki, who looked as pale as a ghost, said weakly, “Miss Shaw, I’ve

tried to explain to you multiple times now. Mister Hart only enjoys listening to me

playing piano, and that’s why he keeps coming to the bar. There is…nothing

between us, and we haven’t even spoken to each other that often. He only

saved me from trouble out of the kindness of his heart.

“I’ve already resigned after you came to talk to me. I didn’t want to come today

because I’m about to leave this city, but since it’s Mister Hart’s birthday and I

owe him for helping me the time before, I didn’t know how else to repay him… If

he likes listening to the piano so much, I thought I could play one last time for

him and stay out of your sight afterward.”

Her voice was gentle and frail, giving her an innocent appearance when paired

with the pale look on her face.

People tended to sympathize with the weak, and since Vicky did not have a

good reputation to begin with, the others started to look at Vicky with contempt,

even though they did not dare to condemn her out loud.

It seemed foolish to act out on jealousy at such an occasion, and what Vicky did

fit her persona of the lady of a fallen family who was capable of nothing even

with Tyler’s help.

“Miss Shaw, it’s been so many years and you still haven’t grown out of your

ways… You seduced Tyler and tore him away from Sheila years ago, and as if

that wasn’t enough, you destroyed Sheila’s hands out of fear that Tyler would

still care for her.

“Miss Mayland is just an ordinary civilian who makes a living off playing piano.

You’ve already cost her her job over nothing but rumors, and now…’ She paused

as she looked at Vicky. “Miss Shaw, we all know that you love Tyler and get

jealous easily, but…you have to know your boundaries at some point.
