Chapter 1423
Tyler was not surprised Harvey would use Vicky to threaten him since he predicted he would pull this
stunt on him.
However, Harvey was right; Tyler was not willing to bet on Vickyâs life at all.
âLet Vicky go,â said Tyler calmly, âand HI let you walk away.â
âAs if Iâll believe that. You even lied to Vicky before, so why should I believe you?â Harvey was no fool.
âPut down your gun, and ask your men to leave.â
Tylerâs eyes darkened. After a few seconds of silence, he ordered his men to withdraw. Thus, the men
who had Vicky and Harvey surrounded retreated.
âYour gun, Tyler,â reminded Harvey.
Tylerâs gaze never left Harvey while he put his gun down on the ground.
âKick it over here,â said Harvey.
Tyler did exactly as he asked.
After making sure the gun was out of Tylerâs reach, Harvey- still holding Vicky hostage-walked outside.
However, everything changed in a split second when Harvey walked past Tyler. Swiftly, Tyler grabbed
Harveyâs hand that held the gun.
Harvey did not expect Tyler would dare to act so rashly, not when Vicky was held hostage, so he was
caught off-guard.
By the time Harvey recovered from his shock, Tyler had stolen the gun and pulled Vicky away, too.
Harveyâs eyes turned cold. He managed to grab Vickyâs wrist just as Tyler was about to steal her away.
He knew it would be impossible for Tyler to steal both the gun and Vicky at the same time. Besides,
stealing a human was much harder than stealing an inanimate object like a gun.
Once Harvey pulled Vicky back, he lightly pushed her out of his way again as he knew Tyler would not
fire the gun at that moment. They were too close for Tyler to take that kind of risk. Thus, Harvey did not
want to lose this opportunity to engage Tyler in a close-combat fight.
Harvey was a good fighter, but since he had not fully recovered from his previous injuries, Tyler
managed to get an upper hand after a few rounds.
Harveyâs face turned paler by the minute, and his wound burst open again. Blood trickled down his
chest.
Seeing Harvey was about to collapse, Vicky screamed,â Tyler, stop! Iâm going to shoot if you donât!â
Tyler glanced at her and saw she was pointing his gun, which she picked at him. Her fingers were
trembling, but her face was calm.
Tyler was a little taken aback. âHe pointed a gun at you, used you to threaten me, and you still want me
to let him go? n
âYes. Let him go now, or Iâm going to shoot you,â Vicky replied resolutely.
Tyler chuckled softly. âYou really want him to live that much, huh?â
âYes.â
A sinister glint flashed across Tylerâs eyes. âThe more you care about him, the more I want him dead!â
He immediately lunged for Harveyâs vital point after he said that.
Bang!
Vicky shot at the open space behind Tyler. It was her first time shooting a gun, and she jolted back at
the impact.
Though, she quickly recovered herself.
âTyler, the next bullet will be on you if you donât let Harvey go now.â
A never-seen viciousness appeared in Tylerâs eyes. Vickyâs threat did nothing to stop him. In fact, he
started punching Harvey even harder.
Bang!
The sound of a ounshot rano across the air aoain.
