Chapter 913
Vicky stood still for a few moments before walking toward Tyler's car.
Tyler was resting with his eyes closed and opened them when he heard knocking on his car window.He
unlocked the car when he spotted Vicky outside, and she immediately opened the door to the
passenger's seat.
"Why haven't you left?" she asked.
"I wanted to wait for you." He looked at her and asked, "Why are you out so soon?"
The lights inside the car were off, and the neon light of the club shone into the car faintly; his features
appeared clouded under such lighting.
"...My client said something else came up, so she can't make it today."
Rescheduling meetings with her clients happened frequently, but Vicky still felt slightly uneasy about
lying.
Tyler did not ask much about it and simply started the car.
"Let's go home, then."
"Okay." They arrived home early.
Tyler went to his study to finish up his work, while Vicky sat on the couch, staring at her phone dazedly.
After a while, she finally summoned the courage to text the mysterious man.
[I'm sorry] After a few minutes, a message came through.
[Have you made your decision?] Vicky's two-worded message spoke volumes, and the mysterious man
instantly knew what she meant.
[Yes, I have.] Vicky replied.
[It seems you have chosen Tyler, after all.] Vicky bit her lip, unsure of what to say, and could only
apologize.
[I'm sorry.] The mysterious man typed.
[Is it because I didn't meet you today?]
[No, itâs not that.] She replied.
Vicky stared at the words on the screen, ultimately choosing to tell the truth.
[Even if we had met, I wouldn't help you steal anything from Tyler.I just...wanted to know who you are.]
[And to gather intelligence for Tyler as well, right?] He replied.
[You appeared when I was desperate and helped me a lot.I'm grateful to you, and I'm willing to repay
you.But...this is something I cannot do. novelebook.com I know it doesn't mean much now, but...I truly
can't do it.Not ever.] This time, after a long pause, the mysterious man replied with a message.
[Do you love him that much?] Vicky stared at the message blankly.
A few seconds later, another text appeared on the screen.
[If you love him so much, why did you break up with him in the first place?] Vicky felt a bit dazed when
thinking of the past.
[Maybe...I didn't love him that much back then.]
[Vicky, I'll ask you one last time.Have you truly made your decision?]
[Yes.] She answered.
[Since it's your decision, I will respect your choice, but I want to remind you that some decisions should
not be taken lightly, or you will regret them.] Upon reading this message, conflicted emotions appeared
in Vicky's eyes.
Although this person and Tyler Hart were on opposite sides and he had used her before, she could not
deny that he had never forced her to do anything, which was precisely why she had made up her mind
to tell him the truth.
She would not betray Tyler, but she could not treat someone who had once helped her without respect
either.She was glad that they never got to meet and realized that it was best for the identity of the
mysterious man to remain a secret.
[Thank you for your reminder.] She sent her final message.
[ Regardless, I must thank you for helping me when I needed it most] There was no accusation or
anger from the mysterious man.
Since she had chosen her side, there was nothing more to be said, and the conversation ended with
the mysterious man replying, [I wish you happiness.]
