Chapter 1702

Author: Debbie Meza
"You stayed up until this time just to talk to me about this?"

Vicky nodded, her expression determined. "It's better to make things clear sooner or later."

Tyler's expression grew even colder.

"You don't have to answer me in a hurry. Take your time to think it over, and then give me your response," Vicky added.

She stood up. "It's getting late. I'll rest now."

Vicky displayed remarkable composure, even a sense of confidence.

For the sake of their child, Tyler had let go of hatred and his plans, so there was no reason for him not to grant her freedom. At this point, their child was the most important thing to him, and a bond connected by blood might just temper his extreme thoughts.

The following day, after a night of contemplation, Tyler eventually agreed to her proposal. "I accept your terms, but with a modification," he said indifferently. "You'll stay here until you give birth, and I need to ensure the safety of the child's birth."

Given Tyler's domineering personality, he m

    Vicky looked at Tyler in surprise. "Are you coming along?""I don't have anything to do today, so I can keep you company," Tyler replied calmly.Vicky instinctively tried to refuse. "You don't have to."Tyler frowned. "Why not?""I accepted having Jade around to protect me when I go out; I never agreed to let you follow me around," Vicky stated firmly.Tyler was unhappy with her explanation, but he managed to control his temper. "I'm not just following you around. I'm here to protect you."Vicky did not believe him."As the child's father, I can better ensure your safety," he added. It seemed Tyler had made up his mind and would not change his decision regardless of how Vicky protested. He even added, "You can think of me as any regular bodyguard."'Any regular bodyguard, huh? He's anything but ordinary with his looks,' Vicky thought and felt that he was being unreasonable.Running late, Vicky could not afford to argue any further, so she reluctantly agreed.Once inside the

    Tyler glanced at Vicky and stood quietly behind her.Aurora felt excited that Tyler was paying for all the pain, suffering, and humiliation Vicky once faced. She was determined to torture Tyler at her best effort.Aurora called the waiter over and ordered two cups of coffee. Tyler, who had been silent all this time, spoke, "Don't drink too much coffee. It's not good for the baby."Aurora furrowed her brow. "Vicky, do all bodyguards talk so much?"Regardless, Aurora replaced Vicky's coffee with juice.The coffee shop was not crowded, but Tyler's tall and graceful figure—coupled with his regal aura—instantly drew everyone's attention. Many young girls blushed just from glancing at him.Being the center of attention made Vicky feel uncomfortable, and she looked up at Tyler. "You should sit elsewhere."Fully embracing his role, Tyler cooperated willingly. He chose a seat that was not too close to Vicky but allowed him to intervene if something happened.Seeing Tyler take his seat,

    Aurora did not have a deep understanding of Tyler; all of this information came from Noah.Noah had also said, "Why does Tyler value this child so much? It's because this child is an important bond that can tie Vicky to him for a lifetime. As Vicky's friend, I understand her situation, and I'm on her side, but we can't deny that their separation was initiated by Vicky. Tyler feels insecure around Vicky, but he doesn't have enough bargaining chips in his hands to make her stay. If Vicky wasn't pregnant, in my opinion... He might take his life with Vicky's at the end of his revenge plan. He was never a normal person, and these years have likely been a survival driven by hatred."Looking at his family's situation, it looks like he's on the brink of destroying the Hart family. There's probably nothing he won't do. Fortunately, Vicky is pregnant, and that gives them both a way out and a chance to ease their relationship. Otherwise...your friend might get killed."He's been subjected to e

    Tyler's remark left Aurora speechless.Instead of being enraged, Aurora glanced around as she turned to Vicky. "Vicky, have you bought all the baby supplies?""Not yet.""How about we check out the baby supply store?" Aurora's eyes lit up. "As the baby's godmother, I need to pick some gifts for my godson." With this in mind, she became increasingly excited. "Come on, let's go to the baby supply store!"She turned to the store attendant and said, "I'll give you an address later; just send my clothes there.""Understood, miss."...When they arrived at the baby supply store, Aurora started shopping like a whirlwind."Wow, these shoes are so cute! Wrap them all up for me!"That set, that set, and that set... Apart from the ones I'm pointing at, wrap up everything else!"Oh, I need to buy some toys for my godson... This little scarf is so beautiful..."Aurora was neck-deep in her shopping spree. In less than half an hour since they entered the store, she filled eight shopping ca

    Vicky was in the midst of choosing baby supplies when she was swept up into Tyler's arms, leaving her stunned. She furrowed her brow and struggled to free herself from his embrace. "Tyler, what are you doing?"Tyler glanced at Aurora and replied, "Your friend asked me to do this."Aurora pointed at herself incredulously. "When did I ask you to do that?""You were concerned about her safety and wanted me to stay close to protect her, right?" Tyler's expression remained unchanged. "This way, I can fulfill your request."Aurora was dumbfounded. It seemed she inadvertently assisted Tyler's plan, but it was not her intention.After a long while, Aurora finally managed to squeeze out a sentence through gritted teeth, "Tyler, you're truly shameless!"Tyler accepted her comment calmly. "Thank you for the compliment."He then wrapped his arm around Vicky's waist and continued helping her pick out baby supplies.Aurora was fuming.The three of them spent a considerable amount of time in

    Not only did Tyler know how to take advantage of situations, but he also knew how to talk his way out of everything.The most exasperating thing for Aurora was that Tyler left her with no room for argument. Aurora decided to ignore him and turned her gaze to chat with Vicky.Vicky, too, acted as though she had not seen Tyler and chatted away with Aurora.Their lunch arrived promptly, and the two of them began to eat. However, Tyler did not sit beside Vicky and stood quietly nearby instead.The restaurant was bustling during lunchtime, and Tyler, with his extraordinary presence, attracted quite a few glances.Aurora, on the other hand, continued eating her meal as if oblivious to Tyler's presence.As long as she did not feel awkward, any awkwardness would be his alone. If he was going to mistreat Vicky, she would let him stand and go hungry.Aurora intentionally slowed down her eating and even ordered a dessert after the meal, so this meal took more than two hours to finish.Tyl

    Vicky furrowed her brow. "Send me the client's contact information, and I'll try reaching out," she said to Jennifer.Jennifer promptly sent over the client's contact details.Vicky made a call, introduced herself, and explained the purpose of her call."Missus Ridge, would you and Mister Ridge be willing to meet with me?" Vicky inquired.Upon hearing that Vicky was the owner of a design studio, Missus Ridge was more accommodating and did not refuse a meeting as decisively as before."Sure. I happen to have some free time this evening. If we need to discuss something, let's meet at the Royal Club," she suggested.Royal Club was a well-known members-only entertainment venue in Stoneford City. Vicky had been there a few times and had a membership card, so she agreed to the proposal.After ending the call, Vicky dialed Jennifer's number again to explain the situation.Jennifer listened and said, "Vicky, since Willow reports to me, I'll go with you.""Okay."After setting a meeti

    Aurora had devised countless strategies to torment Tyler. For instance, during their meals, she would have Tyler watch from the sidelines. They would have cold drinks under the scorching sun, and she would even assign him childishly mundane tasks like serving food and pouring wine, treating him as if he were a waiter.Vicky allowed Aurora to do as she pleased without intervening.After several days of these antics, Tyler remained unfazed while Aurora started to tire herself out. Compared to the torment Tyler endured in the past, Aurora's choices hardly caused any discomfort.Aurora's goal was to make Tyler feel uncomfortable, aiming to make him suffer as she had believed Vicky had. However, Tyler remained unresponsive, which made Aurora lose interest in her endeavors.Recently, Aurora received a new script, so she was more focused on studying her lines at home and no longer wanted to waste her energy on annoying him.Vicky and Jennifer walked ahead, all while discussing Willow's s

    [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? A kid would make a good companion for Lufian.""I'd like to, but I haven't found the right person," Gloria lamented.Gloria had been single for years.
