The situation that Vicky mentioned was indeed known to many high-ranking executives in the company.

Mister Zeeland snorted coldly. “Ms. Shaw, are you saying that Mister Hart has been on vacation withyou all this time?”

“That’s right.”

Mister Zeeland persisted. “It’s understandable that Mister Hart wanted to take a break, but thecompany is facing such a big issue, and even the company’s market value is being affected. At such acritical moment, it’s unacceptable that Mister Hart refuses to come forward.”

“Tyler is usually too busy. Even on vacation, he can’t have a moment’s peace. Phone calls keepcoming in. It was so annoying that I took the liberty of turning off his phone.” Vicky narrowed her eyesas she scanned the people in the room. “Who could’ve imagined that such outrageous rumors wouldspread outside? What surprised me even more was that when the Hart Corporation faced a crisis,there isn’t a single soul here in this entire office to handle it but Tyler, leaving him with no choice but tocome back to stabilize the situation.”

She paused for a moment with a faint smile. “Are you all paid to laze around here?”

Her words fell, and the entire conference room suddenly fell into silence.

Many people lowered their heads in shame.

Mister Zeeland was furious for being publicly mocked by a woman. With a loud bang, he slammed thetable heavily and stood up, pointing angrily at Vicky. “If it weren’t for you, who turned Mister Hart’sphone off, would the Hart Corporation’s market value drop? You are nothing but a troublemaker-“

“Mister Zeeland,” interrupted Tyler. “Vicky is my wife. Please show some respect.”

Mister Zeeland became more agitated seeing as Vicky and Tyler remained on the same side. Hesneered, “Tyler Hart, whether you’re on vacation or suffering from amnesia, bringing this woman here isjust to make her take the blame, right? What kind of a man are you to hide behind a woman?”

Vicky knew how proud Tyler was and grew annoyed. “Mister Zeeland, watch your tongue. Tyler and Iare husband and wife; we are one entity. What is his, is mine. As his wife, it is my rightful duty to standup and speak for him. As for you, Mister Zeeland…” She sneered. “As one of the directors of the HartCorporation, instead of trying to solve the problem, you’re the one starting internal conflicts and addingfuel to the fire. Are you trying to cooperate with those eager competitors outside in the hope of gainingsome benefits from it?”

Mister Zeeland and Tyler had been at odds for a long time, and many people were aware of it. No onedared to mention it, yet Vicky had publicly spoken the truth and flustered Mister Zeeland.

“Vicky Shaw, you b-“

Before he could finish, a glass cup flew over and hit Mister Zeeland in the head audibly. Bloodstreamed down Mister Zeeland’s wound.

It had all happened too fast. Everyone, including Vicky, froze in shock.

“Mister Zeeland, did you not understand what I said?” Tyler asked calmly, the look in his eyesdarkening viciously.

His intimidating presence intensified, and tension rose in the air.

The others turned to gape at Tyler.

Though Tyler was never a gentleman and was known for his ruthlessness, he rarely resorted toviolence in public. People who enraged him would often disappear or suffer some sort of tragedy thenext day.
