Chapter 1412
Vickyâs breath halted. âA traitor?â âYeah. The companyâs top secret has been leaked, and all
departments are making an effort to find this traitor,â he said coldly.
âIs it that bad?â
âYeah.â He let go of her and continued, âWith information about certain projects leaked, our competitors
are trying to get ahead of us and are working together to suppress Hart Corporation⦠Weâre in for
quite a lot of trouble.â
Vicky knew Harvey would not sit on his thumbs and wait to be defeated, but she never imagined she
would cause trouble for Hart Corporation by helping Harvey.
Instantly, she felt at a loss for words and muttered, âTyler, the truth isâ¦â
As Vicky began to speak, Tylerâs phone rang. His attention shifted as he retrieved his phone and
answered the call.
âMister Hart, regarding Harveyâs whereaboutsâ¦â Harryâs voice was heard from the other end of the
line.
Tyler narrowed his eyes. Vicky only managed to catch a few words before Tyler left the room.
Realization dawned on Vicky that Tyler was still investigating Harveyâs whereabouts; his intent to harm
Harvey never wavered. If she told Tyler the truth, Harveyâs life could be in jeopardy.
About 10 minutes later, Tyler returned after ending his call. It seemed he remembered the interrupted
conversation as he asked, âWhat were you about to say?â
âNothing much,â Vicky replied. âI just wanted to remind you not to overexert yourself.â
The depths of the manâs profound eyes brimmed with emotions she could not quite decipher. âIs that
all?â
Vicky nodded.
Gradually, the emotions in Tylerâs eyes seemed to fade. âGo ahead and sleep. Iâll take a shower.â
âAlright.â
The turbulence within Hart Corporation intensified, even affecting the stock market with a decline of
several percentage points. While the corporationâs foundation remained solid, the situation caused
significant trouble.
As time passed, Harveyâs injuries began to heal, and his time spent at the computer increased. Harvey
was a formidable opponent-one who could cause great trouble for Hart Corporation with just a small
amount of leaked information. Yet, Vicky found herself incapable of stopping him.
The information was obtained through her actions, and she lacked the standing and reason to
intervene.
On a certain day, just after Vicky and Harvey finished lunch, the doorbell to the studio rang abruptly.
A glance through the peephole caused Vicky to pale within an instant.
Without further thought, she hurried to Harveyâs room and blurted out, âTylerâs here. You need to hide.â
Harveyâs expression darkened.
Ding, dong! The doorbell rang again.
Vicky did not have time for another word and swiftly gathered the belongings in the room.
After a few seconds of consideration, she decided to move Harveyâs things to Ceceâs room instead.
Each of themâCece, Jennifer, and Vicky-had their own rooms. Vicky felt that it was inappropriate to
place Harvey in one of their rooms without permission, but in an emergency, she could not afford to
consider that.
âIâm not sure why Tylerâs here or how long heâll stay,â Vicky muttered as she tidied Harveyâs belongings.
âFor now, hide in Ceceâs room. Itâs unlikely heâd go there.â
