Semua Bab Loving You In Secret: Bab 971 - Bab 980

Tyler's tone was oppressive and overbearing, giving her no chance to refuse. Vicky thought it was ridiculous. She looked at the man and asked coldly, "Why should I?" 'Why should I listen to him when we have nothing to do with each other anymore?' Vicky thought to herself. Tyler looked down at her and answered, "Because I said so. You have no other choice." Vicky would have listened to Tyler if he had told her that it was because he hated Lincoln and did not want her to get dragged into their family's conflict. After all, her relationship with Tyler was really complicated. Not to mention both Valencia and Orion really hated her too. So, to be on the safe side, it would be best if she did not get involved in their family affairs. However, she did not like his tone. It was as if she was still nothing but his plaything even though they were divorced. The thought of it made her sick to the stomach. "And what if I refuse?" Tyler's eyes became even colder but his tone remained i

Finally, Tyler lost his patience. He scooped Vicky up to stop her from making any big movements. Previously, Tyler's embrace was one of Vicky's happy places. However, right now, it only gave her unimaginable pain and suffering to the extent that she needed to rely on sleeping pills to fall asleep at night. During the day, she put on a mask to hide the sadness and emptiness in her heart. How could she not be in pain? How could she not be suffering? Just when she had finally decided to let go of the past, wanting to start over with him again, and look forward to living a happy life with him… he went and told her he did not want to be with her anymore. The truth hit her out of the blue, and she was not that strong. It took her some time to accept it. However, no matter how much of a bastard or scumbag he was, Vicky had to admit to herself that she still loved him. Tyler carried her into the car. As soon as he let her go, Vicky tried to get out of the car. Tyler must have anticipat

However, Vicky did not have the right to blame Tyler. She had hurt him badly when she made the wrong choice in the past. She felt even guiltier after she learned about the inhumane torture he was put under by his own parents. That was why she agreed to the divorce so easily even though it looked like he was the one who forced her into it. She owed him that much, but she had no intention to owe him forever. On the day of their divorce, she told herself that that would be the end of their grievances and that it was time to wipe the slate clean. She had no idea whether she would be able to let bygones be bygones, but she sure as hell was going to try. It was either that or to live forever in the past. Tyler chuckled dryly. "Wow. Such big words from a small girl. Do you think you can talk to me like that just because you have Lincoln on your side? My oh my. Vicky, you're delusional if you think he can help you. Well, I hate to burst your bubble, but he will never help you. In fact, don

"I'm feeling fine. It's just my old body acting up again," replied Valencia. After a few rounds of small talk, Vicky finally said, "I would like to apologize for ruining your birthday party last night, Missus Hart." Valencia smiled, but the smile did not seem sincere. "Don't worry about it. Lincoln has already explained everything to me, so I know it was all just a misunderstanding." Valencia had always spoken harshly to her and the fact that she would say something like this to Vicky now meant that she was really trying her best to be nicer to her. 'I wonder what Lincoln said to her to make her change her opinion of me,' thought Vicky. With that thought in mind, Vicky started to say, "Tyler and I…" Valencia interjected, "I'm getting on with age and have no more energy to be involved in you youngsters' affairs. Since Lincoln chose you, I have nothing to say. However, I hope you won't mind me giving you some advice. A real woman is loyal to her man, so don't be like Lincoln'

Aurora was rendered speechless. After a while, she carefully asked, "Then… when would be a good time for you?" "End of the year." Aurora's eyes lit up at his answer. "Okay. End of the year it is." Lincoln quickly pulled Vicky into the empty lounge the moment Tyler and Aurora walked out of the elevator. The door to the lounge was left slightly ajar so that they could hear the sound of their footsteps and what they were talking about. Vicky had already learned from Valencia that Tyler was about to get engaged. However, her heart still tightened subconsciously when she heard the news of engagement from Tyler's lips. Soon, Tyler pushed open the door to Valencia's ward and entered with Aurora. Their voices disappeared as soon as they went in, and the hospital corridor fell into a deathly silence. After a while, Lincoln's voice broke the silence. He did not say anything to add insult to injury. Instead, he simply said, "Vicky, let me walk you out." Vicky nodded. "Okay."
