Chapter 1092
âI get it.â Lincoln looked up with a gentle smile. âI donât blame him.â
Vicky studied his expression. â You donât?â
âAll the conflicts between us two are nothing but a big misunderstanding.â Lincoln sighed. âHowever,
some misunderstandings canât be cleared by words alone, so it takes time.â He shot her another warm
smile. âSince he doesnât want me to know about this, Iâll pretend like I donât know a thing, alright?â 1
Seeing how understanding Lincoln was, Vicky became increasingly convinced that Tyler merely picked
a fight with Lincoln over rumors.
Vicky nodded. âAlright.â
At that moment, Angela returned after fetching lunch. Upon seeing Vicky, Angela hesitated for a
moment before respectfully saying, âMiss Shaw, itâs getting late. You should go downstairs and have
your meal.â
It was clear that she was being urged to leave.

âMister Lincoln.â The person respectfully lowered their head. âI have obtained the results of the
investigation you asked for.â
To avoid detection, the room remained unlit. Only the pure moonlight seeped through the clear glass
windows, casting silver rays into space.
Lincoln turned his head; shrouded in the dim air, his facial expression was indistinguishable. In a low
voice, he asked,â
And how did it go?â
âAs you suspected, traces of sleeping medication were indeed found in your bloodstream.â
Lincoln showed no surprise upon hearing this. âAnything else?â
The person hesitated for a moment and spoke in a low voice, âThere is another toxin⦠Although not
fatal, it harms the facial cells and is likely to cause rashes and, in severe cases, inflammation, and
ulcers.â
âHeh.â Lincoln chuckled ambiguously. âAs expected of Tyler.â
âBy the way.â the person seemed to recall something and continued, âRecently, it seems that the
