Chapter 1655
Mister and Missus Wade, who appeared to be in their early forties, were fluent in multiple languages.
âMister Hart is quite thoughtful,â Missus Wade remarked upon overhearing Vicky and Tylerâs
conversation.
Vicky smiled politely in response but did not say much.
The restaurantâs ambiance was pleasant, and the food was exceptional.
Since they were here, they had to try the restaurantâs specialty dishes. Each specialty dish was served
individually to keep up the pleasant atmosphere.
As the dishes arrived, the group engaged in casual conversation while enjoying their meal. The
restaurant lived up to its reputation, and every dish was delicious.
Vicky spotted a vegetable dish with a texture she liked but did not have it on her plate.
Suddenly, Tyler placed a portion of it on her plate, and she turned to shoot him a puzzled look.
âEat more. If you eat so little at every meal, it would look like Iâm mistreating you,â he said.
Vicky hesitated for a moment and grew slightly uneasy, but she did not refuse Tylerâs kindness.
Just then, Tylerâs phone rang. He glanced at his phone and said, âExcuse me for a moment.â
With that, he got up to answer the call in a quieter area.
Once Tyler left, Mister Wade smiled at Vicky. âMs. Shaw, Mister Hart takes great care of you. Iâve
known him for many years, but Iâve never seen him so devoted to any woman before.â
While his words were said partially to flatter Vicky, they caught Vickyâs attention. âHow long have you
two known each other?â
She knew nothing about Tylerâs life over the past four years except that Avery had been by his side.
She was curious about what happened, how he gained control of the Hart familyâs power, and how he
had been living within the Hart family.
Mister Wade considered her question for a moment. âItâs been almost four years, I believe.â
âFour years?â
Mister Wade nodded. âThe first time I met Mister Hart was at the Hart familyâs estate. I was invited by
Old Mister Hart to stay with them for a while. When I first saw Mister Hart, he was just an unknown
member of the Hart family.
âAt that time, many ridiculed him and even intentionally insulted him at banquets. I thought he was an
illegitimate child of the Hart family, which was why he was so unwelcome. Some of the hurtful things I
heard were hard to bear, even for me. I was only there for a short time, but I encountered him several
times, and he lived in that
environment every day. There were times when I thought it was too much, but he always remained
composed, unruffled by the storms around him. Thatâs when I realized he was no ordinary person.â
There was a touch of admiration in Mister Wadeâs tone. âI never expected that heâd achieve what he
has.â
Mister Wade recounted some of Tylerâs remarkable business achievements, and his words were filled
with admiration and respect for him.
Vicky remained silent for a long while.
Compared to her first return to the Hart family, Tylerâs situation seemed better. However, with the Hart
family and Tylerâs biological parentsâ evident disdain for him, along with Old Mister Hartâs pursuit of self-
interest, Tylerâs life was probably far from comfortable.
Mister Wade smiled at Vicky. âOver the years, Mister Hart has been busy with work and rarely involved
in any scandals. There havenât been many women around him. Seeing you here with him today
surprised us all. He has never brought any woman to a business meeting before; youâre the first.â
