Semua Bab Loving You In Secret: Bab 561 - Bab 570

Bang! A bullet shot through Alex's leg before he could finish his sentence.It all happened too fast, so both Vicky nor Alex could not react.Vicky snapped out of the initial shock after a few moments and shouted, "Alex!"Alex paled and gritted his teeth to prevent himself from screaming, forcing a smile on his face. "Vicky, I'm fine. Don't worry."Bang!Another bullet pierced through Alex's other leg, and he collapsed onto the ground.Vicky shielded Alex and shouted, "Tyler Hart, have you gone mad?!"A gun had appeared in Tyler's hand before she could register it, and the steam that came from the gunpoint was instantly dispersed by the wind.Tyler stood tall, his presence terrifying. She felt chills down her spine just looking at him.His lips curled into a cruel smirk as he studied the angered look on her face. "This is your last chance. Come here.""Don't, Vicky!" Alex lay sprawled across the ground and shouted fearlessly, "Tyler Hart, what kind of a man are you to bully a

...Tyler pulled Vicky into a certain room and said, "Go get a shower."Vicky had regained her composure and dared not to disobey, so she kept her head lowered and headed into the bathroom to shower.She was not in the mood for a bubble bath, but she did not want to face Tyler so soon and purposefully stalled.40 minutes later, Vicky walked outside in a bathing robe. Tyler had showered as well by then.He was standing by the window and speaking into his phone. "Has she woken up? How is she now? Yeah. Probably at night." After a few words, he ended the call and turned to find Vicky standing behind him."How is...Gloria?" she asked."She's awake.""... Good.""I thought you'd prefer that she never wakes up," Tyler said sarcastically.After a few moments of silence, Vicky said, "If she never wakes up, Alex and I...are pretty much doomed." She frowned and continued, "How is Alex now?"A cold expression took over Tyler's face. "That depends on what you do."Vicky looked at him.

Tyler grabbed Vicky's wrists. "Vicky Shaw, do you know anything else other than how to seduce men?"Vicky froze and looked up to find contempt and disgust in his eyes. "But you said—""What did I say?" he coldly interjected.She turned pale when she recalled that he did not say anything in specific, and she dug her own grave in response to a few words he said."Honestly, I've grown tired of your body." He pushed her away in disgust. "Looks like you've lost the only leverage you ever had."With that, he turned to leave, and Vicky remained frozen in place in the dark room....Once the rainstorm passed, Tyler left on the helicopter, leaving Vicky on the ship on her own.She knew that she had not been forgotten but was abandoned.A day and a night later, Vicky returned to Stoneford City. She was not restrained, and Tyler's men left after seeing her off the ship.Tyler did not seem concerned that she would escape or simply grew tired of her repeated attempts of running away. Stil

After a few moments of silence, Gloria said, "Vicky came by today.""What was she doing here?""To apologize, and to beg for mercy in Alex's place."The look in Tyler's eyes darkened.Gloria studied his face. "Tyler, are you holding Alex prisoner?""Yes.""Is he..." she muttered hesitantly. "How is he now?""Alive for now."Her heart sank and she thought, 'Alive for now? Will anything happen to him?'"Tyler," Gloria whispered. "I've known Alex since we were kids. He might be a hothead, but he's not a bad man. Maybe he just wasn't thinking when he did all that. I'm fine now, so why don't you just let him go since he has been punished accordingly?""Don't worry about Alex. I will handle it," replied Tyler."Tyler, can't you just leave it?""You should be resting," he said and turned to leave."Tyler!" Gloria raised her voice. "Are you this reluctant to set Alex free because he kidnapped me, or because he...took Vicky and left?""What are you trying to say?""If it's for my

Selene stared at Gloria. "I know that you're not that kind of person, but you need to understand that when a man gets hurt in a romantic relationship once, it's hard for him to start anew with someone else. Gloria, you can't expect Tyler to treat you the same way he did with Vicky... I know that it's not fair, but you know that a man's first love can't be replaced. If he fell in love with you first, you'd have that special place in his heart as well. He has his guard up right now after failing in his first relationship... That's the time when a man needs to be cared for by another woman."Isn't that the reason why you didn't agree to go out with him when he pursued you back then? Time has changed, and four whole years stood between the two of you. If you expect him to pursue you or treat you like he did Vicky... Gloria, I'm certain that it'll never happen until you get him to open up to you."Gloria froze for a long while before reaching out to grab Selene's hand. "Selene, you are ri
