Chapter 47

Sebastian furrowed his brows. It was obvious he did not think that was a good idea. "Mother, please." Missus Mills gave him a reproachful look. "Vicky's mother and I were best friends when we were young. Not to mention I've watched Vicky grow up. Though we might not have the good fortune of Vicky marrying into our family, I still see her as my daughter. Do you think I will do anything to harm her?" There was nothing wrong with the first part of what Missus Mills said. It was the later part… that sounded a little off. If Tyler were not there, it would be fine for Missus Mills to say those things. However, since Tyler was there, it did not seem appropriate for her to say so. It was as if she was implying something and trying to sow more discord. Then, Missus Mills turned to Taylor and asked, "Mr. Hart, surely you don't mind me borrowing Vicky for a while to do some catch-up?" As usual, Tyler's expression remained neutral and distant. No one could tell what he was actually thinking.
