Chapter 1384
âAccording to what Jennifer said, she and Anthony have lost touch for a while now. Recently, Anthony
unexpectedly showed up in Stoneford City and became her client. Itâs apparent that heâs doing this to
get close to Jennifer again,â Tyler continued.
Tyler never expressed his opinions on the situation between Jennifer and Anthony. Thus, hearing his
view on the matter made Vicky realize that someone in a position of power like Tyler saw things
differently from ordinary people.
When faced with such a situation, most people would think about how to free Anthony from Lilyâs
control, yet Tyler seemed to view the situation differently. He believed that it was precisely because the
circumstances had spiraled out of control that Lily became disoriented and allowed Jennifer to find the
truth.
Vicky studied his face. âSo, what can be done to break Lilyâs hold on Anthony?â
Tyler leaned back, his posture lazy yet elegant as he posed a counter-question. âDo you really think
Anthony is completely unaware heâs being hypnotized?â
Vickyâs gaze flickered. âAre you saying thatâ¦â
âWhile Anthony cut ties with his family mostly due to this womanâs manipulation, itâs evident Lily wonât
be content with simply being a lover.â
Vicky grasped what he was implying. âSo, by severing ties with his family, Anthony also intended to
keep the Yavners away from Lily as well?â
âYes.â
Vicky seized another crucial thread. âAnd now that Anthony has returned to Jennifer, is he using her to
divert Lilyâs attention? Why did Jennifer even bump into Lily that day when she was delivering clothes?
Are you saying Anthony orchestrated the whole encounter?â
Tylerâs expression deepened. âMore or less, yes.â
Vicky lowered her head, feeling slightly upset. âDoes Anthony only see Jennifer as a means to an
end?â
Tyler turned to look at her, his gaze steady. âWho said using someone means not loving them?â
âBut if heâs using Jennifer, his feelings canât be genuine.â
Tyler smiled. âVicky, thereâs no absolute right or wrong in this world. He sheâs also a means to an end.
Without her, he wouldnât be able to break free from this situation.â
Vicky shook her head. âI donât understand this.â
Tyler pulled her into his embrace. âIf he didnât love Jennifer, Lily wouldnât target her to begin with. Itâs
because he considers Jennifer special that triggered Lilyâs jealousy. In other words, Anthonyâs fondness
for Jennifer means she canât remain unaffected, and it also means she can only be used. Do you
understand now?â
Vicky fell into silence, before saying, âI get it.â
Tyler planted a gentle kiss on her forehead and said, âYou and your friends donât have to do a thing.
Anthony will settle this.â
After staying for a while longer, Vicky left.
Tyler glanced at the documents on his desk with a dark expression. He then opened the drawer and
pulled out another set of documents.
The voice recording analysis was complete, and the voices indeed belonged to Harvey and Vicky.
According to the investigation, Vicky and Harvey had been close lately. Though Harvey had only been
to Vickyâs studio once, his men had been there frequently.
Harveyâs men had been careful not to leak any information about why they visited Vickyâs studio, but in
Stoneford City, Tyler could find pretty much anything as long as he wanted to.
He flipped through the pages to the report indicating that Harveyâs men were visiting Vicky to deliver
medicine.
