Chapter 1157

A sound came from the door. It was faint but noticeable.

“Who’s there?” Tyler narrowed his eyes and opened the door abruptly.

He frowned at the sight of the familiar figure before him and was stunned when he saw the smooth, fair

skin on the woman’s face.

Vicky’s face had recovered.

Realization dawned on Tyler, and he instinctively reached for her hand. “Vick-“

Slap! Vicky glowered at Tyler as she smacked his face.

“So it really was you!”

Although she found out what happened, hearing their conversation in person still made Vicky’s blood

run cold.

“Tyler Hart, I never expected you to be so cruel!” Vicky gritted her teeth as she glared hatefully at Tyler.

Tyler, who had always been composed and unruffled, could not help but panic.

Not bothered by being slapped, he said hastily, “Vicky, let me explain.”

“Sure, I’ll listen to your explanation.” Vicky did not leave and stood in place. She glanced at Avery, who

was sitting on the ground, then looked at the bottle of poison on the coffee

table. Finally, her gaze fell on the vial in Tyler’s palm as she sneered. “I’m curious to see what kind of

nonsense you can come up with to deceive me this time.”

Three days ago, Vicky received a call from Lincoln saying that he found the antidote for her. However,

even though Tyler promised her freedom, there were still plenty of guards around the mansion.

Over the course of three days, Lincoln had found a woman with a similar side profile to Vicky. To avoid

arousing suspicion from Tyler, Vicky dared not leave the mansion. Instead, she intentionally wandered

around the vicinity of the mansion, taking advantage of the guards who were not paying attention to slip

away.

Early in the morning today, Lincoln picked her up and administered the antidote, so she had arrived at

the Harts’ mansion earlier than Tyler.

After temporarily neutralizing the toxin, Lincoln discovered that Tyler had come to the mansion and

taken Avery away by force.

Avery was Lincoln’s fiancee, so it seemed strange for him to abduct Avery, and Vicky was alarmed as

she thought about it.

She followed the guards sent to capture Avery silently, trying to get closer to the room. However, the

two guards were too vigilant, and Vicky was unable to approach the room unnoticed.

In the end, with Lincoln’s help, they managed to lure the guards away, allowing Vicky to finally get

closer. The first sentence she heard was Avery saying, “Shouldn’t you be happy? You’ve achieved your

goal, and someone else took the blame for it.”

Upon hearing this, Vicky was still confused. However, as she listened closely to the following

conversation, she soon realized that Tyler ordered Avery to poison her.

Tyler held Vicky’s shoulders and stared into her eyes. “If I were to say that I didn’t poison you, would

you believe me?”

“Of course, I believe you didn’t poison me.” Vicky smirked.” After all, Avery was the one who poisoned

me, under your order.”
