Vickyâs gaze flickered as she looked at Old Mister Hart. âI donât understand what you mean.â
Old Mister Hart sighed lightly. âBack then⦠I was wrong. I shouldnât have stopped you and Tyler from
being together.â
Vicky was taken aback by Old Mister Hartâs words. He had always prioritized his interests and was
authoritarian, so she
could hardly believe he was apologizing to her.
It was even more incredible than Tyler apologizing to her.
Old Mister Hart continued, âIn his early years, Tyler suffered a lot outside, and after returning to the
Hart family, he wasnât
treated well⦠It was indeed a mistake made by the Hart Family and myself. Itâs normal for Tyler to
harbor resentment
toward us.â
He looked at Vicky with a conflicted look. âI didnât handle the relationship between Tyler, you, and the
Hart family well. The
main reason I came here this time is to apologize to you. You and Tyler were separated for so many
years, but luckily,
your feelings are deep, and youâve found your way back to each other. Since you already have a child,
I hope the two of
you can be together.â
Listening to Old Mister Hart, Vicky realized his purpose for coming and replied calmly, âOld Mister Hart,
time can change
many things. I told you that having a child with Tyler doesnât necessarily mean weâll end up together.â
Old Mister Hart raised an eyebrow. âYou donât want to be with Tyler anymore?â
Vicky fell silent for a moment before saying, âIâm sorry, but Iâm not the one who can redeem him. If you
want me to
persuade him to let go of his hatred, Iâm afraid Iâm powerless in that regard.â
âIf even you canât do it, there might be no one else in this world who can persuade him,â said Old Mister
Hart.
Vicky shook her head. âYou should have heard about what happened at the wedding. He showed no
mercy toward me
either. If it werenât for this child, I donât think Iâd be sitting here, talking to you right now. If you want me
to convince Tyler to
give up on going after the Hart familyâ¦I donât think Iâm capable of that.â
Vicky was well-informed about the Hart familyâs situation and could guess what Tyler intended to do.
Nothing was more painful for the Hart family members, who were used to a life of luxury, than to fall
from the heights of
the clouds into the mud.
Tyler was far too ruthless and had meticulously plotted to seize the position of the family head just to
exact revenge on
everyone, including her.
âNo, you can do it.â Old Mister Hartâs voice interrupted Vickyâs thoughts. He gazed into her eyes and
continued, âYou are
the only one who can do it.â
âOld Mister Hart, youâre placing too much trust in me.â
Old Mister Hart shot her a bitter smile. âIf I had known that Tyler would vent his anger on our family
because of you, I
wouldnât have prevented you from being together in the first place.â
Indeed, he regretted it.
The reason he had not agreed to Tyler and Vicky being together was solely because Vickyâs identity
could not provide
strong support for Tyler, and her value could not be maximized to the fullest.
