Chapter 1063
Vicky shook her head. âI donât want to leave with him.
Lincoln stared at her and promised with a determined look, â No one can make you leave if you donât
want to, Vicky.â
In the past, Vicky was still wary of Lincoln, but after all that had happened, she could not think of
anything but the urge to leave for a place where Tyler could never find her.
âAre you sure that⦠you can make sure he doesnât take me away?â
Lincoln smiled. âAs long as you stay here, I can make sure that he doesnât.â
âStay here?â Vicky repeated hesitantly.
This was the mansion where the Harts temporarily resided for their time in Zendonia, so there was no
doubt that Valencia and Orion lived there as well.
Vicky knew that if she stayed under the same roof as those two, they were bound to have conflicts.
Lincoln seemed to understand what she was thinking and added with a smile, âVicky, donât worry. Iâll
talk to my parents, and they wonât give you a hard time.â
The sharp voice of a woman downstairs occasionally reached Vickyâs ears and she recognized that the
voice belonged to Valencia.
Despite the terrible relationship between Valencia and her own biological son, she was a great mother
to Lincoln and even went as far as to accept Vicky for Lincolnâs sake despite disliking Vicky for the
longest time.
It was ironic, to say the least.
Vicky, at this moment, had no time to consider these matters and asked, âDo you have a way to get me
out of Zendonia?â
She had booked a plane ticket to leave the country earlier, but it got canceled.
If Tyler were to make arrangements to trap her, she would never be able to escape his grasp.
Lincoln furrowed his brows slightly and said, âYour personal information is on the blacklist, so itâs
difficult to leave here through normal means.â
Vicky clenched her fists and asked, âWill I never leave Zendonia?â
Lincoln seemed troubled as well. âItâs probably not possible anytime soon, but I will make arrangements
for you. Once an opportunity presents itself, Iâll send you abroad as soon as I can.â
Vicky studied Lincoln and asked, âWhy are you⦠helping me? If
âInitially, it was to cause trouble for Tyler. But as I got to know you, I realized that youâre a very special
woman, and I found myself paying attention to you without even realizing itâ¦â Lincoln stared at Vicky
intently, his gaze unnervingly focused. âVicky, I know I didnât tell you the truth last time when I took you
to the banquet, and that was my mistake. I admit that I had my own selfish motives. I needed a reason
to break off the engagement with Miss Yeager, soâ¦â A tinge of guilt appeared on Lincolnâs face. âVicky,
Iâm sorry that Iâve used you.â
Vicky did not feel offended at all. âYouâve helped me so much. Itâs only fair for me to repay you. You
donât have to apologize to me. But before you do anything next time, I hope you can tell me clearly
instead of keeping me in the dark.â
Lincoln nodded. âI promise. I wonât do it again.â
The voice of the woman downstairs became even sharper, and Vicky furrowed her brows lightly, not
knowing what Valencia and Tyler were arguing about. âHas the relationship between Missus Hart and
Tyler always been this bad?â
Lincoln smiled faintly. âNot really. Regardless of what happened, my parents are the ones who gave
birth to Tyler. Although they have a distant relationship in normal times, itâs not as bad as it is now.
Howeverâ¦â
Vicky looks at him in confusion. âHowever?â
âSince that time Mother took you away and Tyler found you at my parentâs place, theyâve had a falling
out. Tyler no longer cared about Motherâs feelings and started doing whatever he pleasesâ¦â Lincoln
said with resignation. âThis has actually provided him with a lot of conveniencesâ¦
Vicky, you were the one who got locked up, yet the one who benefited from it was Tyler.â
