Chapter 1178
Tyler was about to open the door when Vicky grabbed his arm to stop him. âIt might be the reportersâ¦â
âIsnât that what you were hoping for?â sneered Tyler. He then opened the door, revealing his new
personal assistant, Harry Gardner.
Vicky had seen him a few times before.
Harryâs expression immediately changed when he saw Vicky, but he quickly lowered his head to report,
âMister Hart, all the news channels are reporting about you and Ms. Shaw right nowâ¦â
âCover it up.â
âWellâ¦â Harry peeked at Tyler before continuing, âOur men are on it, but Iâm afraid itâll be difficult to do
so as your competitors are doing their best to make the news as big as possible.â
Then, as if he did not want Tyler to think of him as useless, Harry added, âThe fight with Harvey Sparks
had taken a lot out of us, so our hands are currently tied⦠Even if we can cover it up now, the damage
is done. Instead of wasting resources in covering up the news, why donât we come out with a
clarification?â
Tyler chuckled coldly. âWhatâs there to clarify?â
Harry immediately shut up after that. âMister Hart is rightâ¦
No one will believe him if he said he has nothing to do with Vicky. The photos are too blatant for them
to believe otherwise. But if he were to say that the two of them are dating, whatâs going to happen to
Miss Young?â
Harry was trying to come up with a win-win solution when Tylerâs phone rang again. After listening to
what the caller had to say, he simply replied, âIâll be there right away.â
He then hung up the phone and ordered Harry to bring him a set of fresh clothes. After Harry left the
room, Tyler turned his attention to the dazed Vicky.
âWhy are you still here? Are you waiting for the reporters to come back orâ¦is it money you want?â he
asked mockingly.
Vickyâs face turned pale, and she felt all too hurt.
Her family had moved abroad after they went bankrupt, but Vicky was chased out of the family while
her name was removed from the family tree after her parents found out she had âstolenâ Gloriaâs fiance,
Harvey Sparks, and Tyler. In fact, those who did not know any better would have rightfully thought she
was one of those scheming b*tches who only go for other womenâs fiances or husbands.
After graduating from abroad, Vicky came back and used up all of her savings to buy herself an
apartment so it was true, she could really use some money. That was why Tylerâs mockery of her hurt
so badly.
Vicky took a deep breath to compose herself. She then smiled and said, âI can leave, but on one
condition.â
Tylerâs immediately darkened. He had not expected her to come up with a condition. âLetâs hear it.â
âPromise me you wonât bankrupt the company I work for, and Iâll pretend nothing happened last night
nor would I show my face around you and Miss Young again.â
Tyler looked down his nose at her. âYou are in no position to negotiate with me! In fact, you should
count yourself lucky that I didnât sue you for sneaking into my room and letting the whole world know
about us!â
âIâve told you, I have nothing to do with what happened last night!â
âMy, my. They should give you an award for your acting skills. Even Sheila should learn from you,â said
Tyler sarcastically.
Vicky ignored his taunting and looked straight into his eyes.
âIâm not asking for a lot. Youâll only need to give me your word, and Iâll be gone in a blink of an eye.â
âYouâre right. But why should I promise you that? And donât you dare threaten me with what happened
last night,â said Tyler apathetically.
