Chapter 1154

Author: Debbie Meza
Though Vicky anticipated this, her heart still sank at the mention of Tyler's name. "Are you sure?"

"Yeah," Jennifer whispered. "The toxin doesn't harm the body, so it's very rare." She paused and continued, "There isn't that big a demand for this sort of toxin, and there's only a limited number of people who purchased it in the past. After all, no one would care if they're hurting their victim's health if they wanted to ruin someone's face."

Vicky held her phone silently.

"Vicky," Jennifer called out. "Anthony's father is quite well-versed in the studies of poisons and toxins, so don't worry about the antidote. Anthony has contacted his father, so I'm sure we'll find an antidote soon."

Vicky stared at her reflection on the computer monitor and said bitterly, "If my face is truly ruined, do you think...that Tyler will finally let go of me?"

Jennifer jolted in shock and said hastily, "Vicky, don't say that. You can't punish yourself over someone else's mistakes."

Vicky chuckled. "

    Avery's knees went weak just from hearing Tyler's voice.Tyler slowly turned around, and his dark, deep gaze landed on her.Avery paled at this, and after steadying herself, she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Tyler Hart, is this how you treat a lady?"Tyler could not be bothered with her pretense and said, "Did you poison Vicky?""What?" Avery looked at him blankly. "What are you talking about? I don't understand you.""I've investigated the matter. You don't need to keep up your act," Tyler stated flatly.Avery was bewildered for a moment before something seemed to dawn on her. "Do you really think I poisoned Vicky? When she was ill, you were so attentive to her that you took care of everything yourself. I only saw Vicky once with Lincoln on the day she woke up, and we were kept at a distance... Are you suggesting that I could have poisoned her from afar?"The look in Tyler's eyes hardened. "Who said that all poisons have to take immediate effect?"Avery wanted to defend hersel

    The hives on Lincoln's face were not the reason why Avery did not want to be with him. She could make Lincoln's face return to its original state in a matter of minutes if she wanted to.However, she preferred a man with a cold and restrained demeanor like Tyler.Avery knew it was difficult to handle someone as aloof as Tyler, but once she had him under her control, he would remain forever loyal to her.Taking advantage of her identity as Lincoln's fiancee, Avery managed to stay in the Harts' mansion. She frequently appeared in front of Tyler during her stay, but he never spared her a second glance.He was completely focused on Vicky, oblivious to any subtle hints she might have given him.It was human nature to desire what was difficult to obtain, and the more he rejected her, the more she desired him.That was when Avery thought of poisoning Vicky.After all, not a single man on earth did not care about his woman's appearance.Tyler was worried that Vicky's beauty would attra

    A sound came from the door. It was faint but noticeable."Who's there?" Tyler narrowed his eyes and opened the door abruptly.He frowned at the sight of the familiar figure before him and was stunned when he saw the smooth, fair skin on the woman's face.Vicky's face had recovered.Realization dawned on Tyler, and he instinctively reached for her hand. "Vick—"Slap! Vicky glowered at Tyler as she smacked his face."So it really was you!"Although she found out what happened, hearing their conversation in person still made Vicky's blood run cold."Tyler Hart, I never expected you to be so cruel!" Vicky gritted her teeth as she glared hatefully at Tyler.Tyler, who had always been composed and unruffled, could not help but panic.Not bothered by being slapped, he said hastily, "Vicky, let me explain.""Sure, I'll listen to your explanation." Vicky did not leave and stood in place. She glanced at Avery, who was sitting on the ground, then looked at the bottle of poison on the c

    Vicky looked into Tyler's eyes and spoke slowly, "It's a clever move to have someone else do your dirty work for you.""I didn't make Avery poison you," Tyler said tensely. "It's easy if I truly wanted to poison you. Why would I need to rely on someone else?""Having Avery poison me might be troublesome, but if the truth is ever revealed, you can easily shift the blame onto her. After all, she has the motive to hurt me. If you did it and I discovered it, your 'devoted lover' image would've collapsed, wouldn't it?"Tyler pursed his lips, and his expression darkened at her sarcastic tone. "Vicky, you'd rather believe a woman with ill intentions than believe me?""You want me to believe you? Sure." Vicky shifted her gaze at the vial placed on the table. "Since you say you didn't poison me... Can you tell me what you intended to do with this poison you bought?"Tyler moved his lips but failed to form any coherent explanation.She ignored his silence and continued, "Since you don't wa

    It was almost as though whatever feelings Vicky had left for had finally faded.She stared at him with an unfamiliar look in her eyes, and Tyler struggled to read her.Without hesitation, he said, "No. I will never let go.""Give up. I'm tired of this.""This is all a misunderstanding—""Tyler," she interrupted him as she stared at him calmly with determination; there was no trace of anger or resentment in her eyes. "It's not just about this. It's about all the things that happened. Do you understand?"He stared into her eyes gloomily and said hoarsely, "You've only pretended to accept me, when in truth...you've never believed me for a moment, have you?"Vicky saw no point in his question but answered anyway. "That's right.""You've concluded that I poisoned you right from the start, right?"She nodded. "Yes."Tyler smiled bitterly and clenched his fists. "Vicky, do you no longer have any feelings toward me?"Vicky avoided his gaze. "Why bother asking a question that you kno

    Tyler's voice was low and pleading as he continued, "I won't do anything that will upset you again."Vicky shook her head. "Don't you understand? I don't love you anymore."Her merciless voice echoed in his head, and he tightened his grip to the point he almost snapped her bones.His chest heaved, and his eyes reddened as he muttered, "That's fine. You're stuck with me forever whether you love me or not."'What familiar words,' Vicky thought. 'He hasn't changed one bit.'Vicky had stopped caring and smiled as she studied his face. "You can make me stay, but you can't make me live."Tyler trembled slightly. "What did you say?""Either you let go and let me leave, or you kill me and keep me here forever." Vicky raised her head and stared into his eyes. "Tyler, you can never hold onto a woman who is determined to leave you. Back when I wanted to leave you, you couldn't keep me. It's the same now."Vicky's determination reminded him of that not-so-distant past, and his gaze became

    Avery could tell Tyler still wanted to cling to Vicky, and this baffled her.…One day, Vicky went to the store for grocery shopping, and she then went into a taxi parked by the road.The taxi started moving forward as soon as she provided the driver her address, and she sat back to stare at the scenery outside."Vicky." Just then, a familiar voice sounded in front of her.Vicky raised her brow and turned her head, noticing only the driver apart from her in the taxi.When Vicky got into the car, she did not pay much attention to the driver's appearance and only knew that he was a young man with a glance.However, when he heard his voice, Vicky looked at him in shock. "Lincoln? Your face...has healed?"The man wore a duckbill cap and a pair of black-framed glasses which modestly concealed his features. Still, Vicky could easily recognize his alluring features.He nodded with a smile. "Yes, it has."Vicky looked at Lincoln's attire and asked, "Why are you dressed like this?"L

    "Vicky, are you sure you want to leave him?""Yes," answered Vicky."Alright." Lincoln nodded. "I'll make the arrangement as soon as possible. Once everything is in place, I'll get you out of here."Vicky studied his sophisticated side profile and whispered, "Thank you."He chuckled. "We're friends. You don't have to thank me. I will contact you once everything is prepared."With that, Lincoln sent Vicky back to her apartment....For several consecutive days, there was no news from Lincoln's side.'Has Lincoln encountered some kind of trouble, or...has Tyler found out?' Vicky thought anxiously.She wanted to call Lincoln and ask about the situation, but she remembered what Lincoln said about Tyler monitoring his phone recently.Vicky did not dare to act rashly. If Tyler discovered their contact, all their efforts would be in vain.In the evening, just as Vicky walked out of the bathroom, she heard a slight vibration from her phone.Worried that Tyler might see the messages

    [Alright.]Aurora sighed in relief. "Vicky, we've been out for quite a while. Shall we head back?"Vicky glanced at Aurora. "Can we finally go back now?""Yes, we can go back... Huh?" Aurora sensed something was amiss. "Vicky, do you...know something?"Vicky smiled. "Every time I go out with friends, Tyler always bombards me with questions about when I'll be back and insists on picking me up. Strangely, he didn't ask me anything today. Also... I remember that it's my birthday today."Aurora was left speechless as she realized Vicky saw right through her act....By the time they got home, it was starting to get dark outside. Inside the mansion, it was quiet and pitch-black. Suddenly, a warm, yellow candlelight gradually illuminated the darkness, revealing a handsome face."Happy birthday, Vicky," Tyler said.Vicky gazed at the flickering candles, feeling a bit dazed.It was then she remembered that during the early days of their relationship, he had prepared a birthday surpri

    Tyler showed great disdain when his wish of getting a daughter was let down. What irritated him most was that this son looked remarkably like him.After recovering from childbirth, Vicky accompanied a newly pregnant Aurora on a shopping trip for baby supplies.Upon hearing Vicky's story, Aurora could not help but ask, "Men are usually happy when they have sons, so why does Tyler prefer daughters?"Vicky sighed. "Tyler says that a family is never really balanced and happy unless they have one son and one daughter."Aurora nodded thoughtfully. "Indeed. Now that you have a son, having a daughter would be perfect. Vicky, have you and Tyler considered responding to the national call and having a third child?"Vicky shook her head. "The last time I gave birth, Tyler wasn't around, so he doesn't know what it was like. This time, he was scared out of his wits and had no intention of having more children. A few days ago, he even underwent a vasectomy."Aurora chuckled. "Daughters may be s

    However, everything spiraled out of control.Tyler knew his behavior was despicable, but he could not control his emotions.When he loved, every cell within him longed for her. Every time he came to see her, he told himself it would be the last time. However, he found himself appearing at her house more and more frequently.Tyler knew he was in trouble, and it would not be long before he returned to his former self.Vicky was like a drug to him. Even though he knew that contact with her was toxic, he could not bring himself to let go.He knew she was pregnant with his child, and his most primal desires began to surge, making it impossible for him to resist the urge to make her stay.Vicky listened quietly to his confession, and her heart ached.She could not fight off the urge to hold him; her touch was firm and comforting.He only mentioned a few words about the time he regained consciousness, but Vicky knew he had endured a lot of pain. The fact that he was alive was a miracl

    Tyler's lips quivered as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he fell silent.What was there to say? It was not like he could apologize. The deed had been done, and his apology would not mean anything. Besides, he had no regrets whatsoever.Vicky stared at him. "You tampered with the surveillance, didn't you?""Yes.""And the servants and nannies. They're all under your control, right?"Tyler lowered his gaze. "Yes."Since all of this was real and not a dream, she must have been unconscious when Tyler returned. No matter how soundly she slept, she should have felt something. Since she had to take care of Lufian, she came home every day for meals, so she guessed that something was added to her food.For the past few days, she pretended to eat at home while secretly disposing of her meals. As it turned out, her suspicions were correct.Vicky repeated the question she asked before. "Why didn't you come to me?"Tyler remained silent once again."Did you come here just t

    "Are you planning to leave just like that?"The man's body tensed.Click! The desk lamp was turned on, its warm, amber light illuminating the darkness."Why won't you look at me? Are you brave enough to do it but not to admit it?" echoed Vicky's gentle voice.Tyler snapped out of it and instinctively pulled his hand away from hers, ready to escape, only for Vicky's next words to pin him in place."If you leave now, I'll get rid of the baby in me tomorrow."He swiftly froze in place and turned back to her. "What did you just say?"Even though she prepared herself mentally, seeing the shock on his face made Vicky's eyes widen in shock. In an instant, her eyes welled up with tears. "You..."As Tyler met the shock in her eyes, he came to a sudden realization and turned his face away, looking anywhere but at her.When she learned about her pregnancy and knew she had not been dreaming, Vicky had a hunch about who it was that came and went freely into her home. The only one capable o

    Vicky began to feel increasingly uneasy. She was pregnant without even knowing who the father was. That had to be one of the most absurd jokes in the world.Aurora, Noah, and the others were bewildered.They knew Vicky's character well, and she was not the type to casually sleep around. Besides, she still had feelings for Tyler, so she would never sleep with another man.Getting drunk was even more out of the question. After all, she was either working or taking care of her child. She had neither the time nor the inclination to go out drinking.Even Vicky herself was bewildered, and her thoughts were in disarray. "I... I don't know."The others exchanged glances, all noticing that Vicky's first instinct was not to terminate the pregnancy."Vicky, go home and think it over carefully. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call us," Aurora said gently.Vicky nodded absently.Back at home, Vicky reviewed the surveillance footage once more.She had watched it numerous times, but

    Just then, a dish that Vicky usually enjoyed was brought to the table by the waiter.The aroma filled the air, but Vicky paled instantly. Before anyone could react, she retched and rushed to the bathroom.Everyone exchanged puzzled glances.Cece blinked. "What's wrong with Vicky?"Jennifer furrowed her brow. "Vicky doesn't look well. Is she ill?"The concerned Aurora chimed in, "Ever since Tyler's disappearance, Vicky hasn't been in the best mood. She even suffered from postpartum depression. Let's take her to the hospital after dinner. We can't afford for her to fall ill again."Everyone assumed that something was physically wrong with Vicky, but Noah, who remained silent, spoke up."I remember when Vicky was pregnant last time... She seemed to be very sensitive to certain smells."All eyes turned to Noah.Jennifer's eyes widened. "What are you trying to say, Noah?! You don't mean to suggest that...Vicky might be pregnant, do you?"Under the curious gazes of everyone, Noah c

    "Lufian is usually very well-behaved. He doesn't cause a fuss and is easy to handle.""Is his name Lufian?""That's right. Lufian Hart."Gloria's gaze flickered briefly but quickly returned to normal. "Have you given him a nickname?""Not yet," Vicky replied.Gloria did not say anything further.After playing with the child for a while, she carefully placed the necklace she had prepared around Lufian's neck.The baby played for a while and soon fell asleep.Gloria then gently returned Lufian to his stroller.Leaving the nursery, Vicky and Gloria engaged in casual conversation. They had no deep-seated grudges, and over time, their past love and hatred gradually faded away.Vicky smiled and remarked, "You seem to really like children. How about having one yourself?
