Chapter 692

Author: Debbie Meza
Tyler stared at Gloria and retorted, "Why should I care if you trust me?"

Gloria paused and said, "I can't just leave Vicky with a stranger."

"I'm just a stranger to you, not to her."

Tyler shot her one last look and turned to leave with Vicky in his arms.

Gloria moved to stand in his way and gritted out, "I won't let you leave with Vicky!"

He chuckled mockingly. "People who don't know the truth might just think that you really care for her."

Gloria widened her eyes, and her expression darkened as she glared at Tyler. "Are you accusing me of pretending to care about Vicky, Mister Hart?"

"I didn't say that," he said coldly. "I just want to remind you that the longer we wait, the more danger your cousin will be in. Are you sure you want to keep wasting time here?"

Gloria was instantly rendered speechless, and Tyler walked around her to leave.

She stood frozen in place as he walked away. In the end, she gritted her teeth and caught up to him.

    Vicky nodded. "Okay.""Don't show yourself in the academy for the time being. I'll follow up on this," said Gloria.Suddenly, Gloria's phone started ringing, and after answering the call, she paled and ended the call.She looked at Vicky. "Vicky, I'm afraid that I need to hurry back. Rest well. I'll come by to see you again tomorrow.""Okay. Go ahead."On Gloria's way out, she shot a cold glare at Tyler.Since Vicky had regained consciousness, she did not have to worry about Vicky's safety.When the door closed behind Gloria, Vicky turned to look at Tyler. "Mister Hart, thank you...for what you did today. Without you, I might've..."He interrupted her, "Aren't you upset that I caused you this much trouble?"She chuckled. "Had you not gotten involved, I wouldn't even have a chance to face the troubles you've caused."Tyler studied her for a few moments. "You can't live here tonight."Realization dawned on Vicky. "Are you saying that...those guys are going to come after me ton

    After a long silence, Vicky asked, "Is it safe for me to head back to the dorm?""No. You won't even make it past the dorm's gate," Tyler said calmly.Vicky's breath caught in her throat. "Um... What if I go to the airport and fly to another city now?"Tyler glanced at the time. "You woke up a little too late, so that's probably not an option either.""Late? What does that mean?""Later than Jonathan.""How would you know?"Tyler shot her an odd look as though he was wondering why she would ask such a foolish question. "The extraction of the bullet is a standard procedure. It's not that hard to figure out how long it takes."Vicky felt belittled, and as she looked outside the window, realization dawned on her. "Did you injure them badly...to buy me time?"Though Tyler wanted to help her, there was no reason for him to go as far as injuring the three severely as he himself would be in trouble as well.Tyler did not deny it and kept his hands on the steering wheel, his gaze str

    'They'll keep tailing us if I don't get rid of the cars behind us, but to have Vicky puke in my car... That's the one thing I can't put up with,' Tyler thought and decided to end the car race as soon as possible.He shifted gear and stepped hard on the accelerator to speed up.The two cars behind were bracing for impact when Tyler suddenly drove off, and they instantly lost control before crashing into each other.Boom!Following a deafening noise, the cars combusted in flame and exploded.Though Vicky did not know much about cars, she could tell that Tyler, who often looked extremely cold, was a skilled car racer, which seemed to contradict his usual image.That was the last thought that went through Vicky's mind before she lost consciousness under the impact of the explosion....Warm sunlight shone upon Vicky as she slowly opened her eyes.She had fallen deep into slumber, and she had not had such a good night's sleep since she arrived at Molivia.She sat up and massaged t

    Meanwhile, Tyler was seated on the living room couch, reading. He heard her footsteps but did not bother to look up. "You can go after having breakfast."Vicky went to sit by the dining table, and when she saw Tyler still on the couch, she muttered, "Have you eaten?""No.""Would...you like to join me, then?"He lifted his gaze from the book in her hand with a cold expression. "No thanks," he said. "I lost all appetite when I saw you.""..." Had Vicky not had some time with Tyler in the past and known he was used to speaking in this manner, she would have stormed out the door. However, she knew that she was in the wrong for vomiting in his car and said nothing else as she picked up a spoon.After taking a few bites, she could not help but ask, "Did you make all this?"Tyler was slightly annoyed by her questions and frowned before answering, "Yes."Vicky looked at him dubiously. "You can cook?""What's that look in your eyes?" he questioned in displeasure."I just...didn't thi

    Vicky was startled by Tyler's behavior. "What is it, Mister Hart?"He stopped before her and crouched to study her ankle.When his cold fingers came into contact with her skin, Vicky was overwhelmed by a strange feeling."It seems that your muscles and bones are fine for now," he said, "but the swelling has worsened because you didn't get it treated last night."Vicky instinctively moved away from his touch. "I'm fine, Mister Hart, honest. It's getting late, and I should really—ah!"Before she could finish, she was lifted off her feet.Though Tyler had carried her the night before, she was not as sober as she was at the moment.After learning that he had bathed and changed her, she was so embarrassed that she could barely look him in the eyes, and she started panicking when she found herself in his arms.He carried her to the couch and started checking her ankle intently, all the while applying light pressure at different spots. "Does this hurt?""No... Mister Hart, I'm fine.

    Tyler glanced at Vicky's chest and replied, "It means that I'm not interested in flat-chested women."'Flat-chested?! Is he actually saying that I'm flat-chested?! That's about the worst insult one can say about a woman!' Vicky's cheek flushed with anger as she argued, "I have a standard figure! I'm not flat-chested!""Do you have some sort of misunderstanding about the definition of the word 'standard'?""..." Vicky clenched her fists at the humiliation."Do you want to sit here or return to the bedroom?" he drawled.Knowing she would die from rage alone if she stayed in the living room, she said without hesitation, "I want to go back to the bedroom."Tyler nodded and picked her up.The fury she felt was instantly replaced by nervousness when he lifted her up. She had never been so close to a man before, and she could not help the pounding of her heart.It was a feeling entirely foreign to her.She had friends of the opposite sex like Sebastian and Alex, but how she felt arou

    Vicky picked up the crutch and fumbled out of bed. To avoid any pressure on her injured ankle, she hopped out with one leg and moved extremely slowly.Since Tyler lived alone, his apartment had three rooms in total and was decorated in a modern style.Judging from the colors and decorations in the apartment, one would conclude that Tyler was a stern and boring man. There were no paintings or plants—only what was necessary.As she walked past the kitchen, she spotted Tyler cooking inside.Tyler wore a spotless white shirt that accentuated his jade-like skin, with a slightly open collar and sleeves meticulously rolled up with precision.Despite all the smoke in the kitchen, he exuded an innate elegance, moving with grace and poise, untainted by earthly grime.Vicky, too, came from a wealthy family, but compared to him, she felt rather plain.As she watched him, Tyler seemed to sense something and lifted his head to look toward the door. "Why are you here?"The way he spoke sounde

    After serving Vicky food, Tyler did not leave and sat across the table to dine with her.She thought he did not understand anything when he knew exactly what she meant.After lunch, Tyler left for work....For the next few days, Tyler was absorbed by work and would return home late at night. Still, he would prepare all meals for Vicky and would often return home before noon to cook lunch for her before heading out again, which made Vicky feel extremely guilty.A week went by, and Vicky's ankle recovered.According to what Mister Geoge planned, the academy should have resolved the conflict with Jonathan within a week, but Vicky had not received any update from anyone at this point.Confused, she tried contacting Mister George, but he did not answer her calls or text messages.Not daring to go outside, Vicky called Gloria."Vicky?" Gloria answered."Gloria, what's going on with the academy?" Vicky cut to the chase. "I've been trying to get hold of Mister George, but I can't re

    [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. It was not because she could not forget Tyler or was waiting fo
