Chapter 1091
The caregiver was professional, so Vicky did not suspect her explanation.
Due to the rest Lincoln had been getting, his wounds began to heal rapidly.
One day, Vicky saw Angela going down the stairs to cook lunch and realized that Lincoln was probably
awake, so she decided to check on him.
In recent times, Lincoln would often be in deep sleep whenever she went to see him, so she had not
been able to speak with him.
Vicky knocked on the door and went inside with Lincolnâs permission.
âVicky.â Lincoln beamed when he saw Vicky. âYouâre here.â
Vicky nodded and was about to say something when Lincolnâs phone rang.
He glanced at the screen of his phone and his expression darkened.
With another glance at Vicky, Lincoln answered the call.â Mother.â
On the other end of the phone, Valenciaâs worried voice came through. âLincoln, where have you been
all these days? You didnât come home, and you didnât answer the phone. I was so worried that I
thought something happened to you. I even considered asking your father to look for you if you didnât
answer today.â
âIâm fine, you donât have to worry.â Lincolnâs voice remained as gentle as ever, without a hint of anything
unusual. âThere were some urgent matters that came up recently, so I temporarily left Zendonia⦠The
signal here is very poor, so I havenât received your calls.â
Valencia finally breathed a sigh of relief. âAs long as youâre fine⦠Even if youâre busy, you still have to
let us know youâre safe. Donât go without any news for such a long time in the future.â
âI understand. Mother. Iâll go back to my tasks now,â he said with a smile.
After lecturing Lincoln for a while longer, Valencia reluctantly hung up the phone.
Listening to the conversation between Lincoln and Valencia, Vickyâs guilt grew. âSecond Young Master,
Iâm sorry.â
Lincoln smiled and said, âYou donât need to apologize to me, Vicky. I wouldnât have let my mother find
out about this even if you didnât try to hide this.â
His words merely pushed her deeper into her guilt.
It was Tyler who beat him, and no matter how much she apologized, Tylerâs apology was the one that
truly counted, but she knew Tyler would never apologize to Lincoln.
After contemplating for a few seconds, Vicky spoke up.â Tyler misunderstood our relationship, which
led to his
impulsive behavior⦠You know what heâs like. Itâs difficult for him to take the initiative to admit his
mistakes, but that doesnât mean he thinks his actions were right. He actually⦠feels very sorry.â Vicky
looked at Lincoln. âIn fact, he prepares your breakfast every morning⦠Itâs his way of expressing how
sorry he is. Iâm sure he hopes that you can forgive his impulsive actionsâ¦â
Lincolnâs gaze wavered slightly. âHe was the one who prepared my breakfast?â
âYes.â Vickyâs gaze shimmered with uncertainty. âThat morning when I was preparing breakfast for you,
he happened to come downstairs. He asked about your condition and then said to me thatâ¦he was the
one who caused your injuries, so he should take responsibility. Heâs a very peculiar person. After he
finished preparing the breakfast, he made me take it upstairs and forbade me from telling you⦠Iâm
sure he feels quite guilty toward youâ¦â
Lincolnâs gaze darkened. âAre you saying that heâs been preparing my breakfast this entire time?â
Vicky nodded.
While it was true that Tyler did not want her to tell Lincoln, his reason had nothing to do with remorse
but was to simply prevent Vicky from cooking for Lincoln. Moreover, Tyler showed no remorse
whatsoever for injuring Lincoln, and when Vicky mentioned it, Tyler even said that Lincoln deserved it.
Vickyâs words were no longer an attempt to beautify the situation; she was now outright lying.
Lincoln lowered his gaze, concealing the dim flicker in his eyes.
Vicky grew uneasy at his silence and tried to continue speaking well of Tyler, âSecond Young Master,
actuallyâ¦â
