"I came here when I saw the news on the media."
Tyler looked at Nicky with deep, sea-like eyes as if he was putting pressure on her. There was an obvious chill in his eyes like he wanted to crush her into pieces at any time.
I always thought Tyler had changed a lot, but in fact, he did not. He just cared a little more for the people that mattered to him. That was all.
Nicky took a few steps back, her eyes flickering a little while her throat moved slightly like she was gulping. "Things change. Theo loves me now, and Wanda is miserable around him. Why don't you take her away? Leave here as soon as possible so she can find relief."
Her voice was a little weaker, but her attitude remained the same.
"Theo, get down here!" Tyler did not bother talking to her and called for Theo directly.
Nicky obviously did not want Theo to face Tyler, so she quickly stopped him. "He doesn't know you now. What's the use of calling him?"
"Cause I want to." Tyler's tone was sharp, and after only one look at Nicky, he turned his gaze upstairs. "Theo, don't be a tortoise. Get down!"
Theo finally appeared at his loud summon.
He was dressed in his home clothes as he slowly made his way downstairs.
He was the same as before. It was just that I was no longer the one in his eyes. It was now Nicky.
Nicky went over to him. Theo looked at Tyler and asked in confusion, "Who is he?"
"He..."
Nicky wanted to introduce him but did not expect Tyler to walk up to Theo and look him in the eye. "Theo, I heard you lost your memory and forgot everyone. You only know her, right?"
