Chapter 969

Meanwhile, Orion quickly took out a relaxant pill and fed two to Valencia, which somewhat improved

her hyperventilation.

Tyler noticed Valencia’s unpleasant expression and became curious about the woman Lincoln had

brought with him.

When his gaze fell on the woman who had been facing away from him, refusing to turn around, his

eyes widened slightly, and a hint of disbelief flickered in his eyes.

Lincoln had been observing Tyler’s expression all along and noticed the change in his face.

With a faint curve on his thin lips, he lowered his gaze to Vicky and said, “Vicky, come and say hello to

my eldest brother.”

Lincoln and Tyler were born on the same day. Although they were mistakenly switched at birth, Tyler

was still a true member of the Hart family, a genuine descendent whose position was above that of an

adopted son.

To differentiate them, everyone referred to Tyler as the Eldest Young Master and Lincoln as the Second

Young Master.

Vicky’s body stiffened. She was unable to turn around, let alone move.

“Vicky Shaw?!” Tyler’s voice sounded as if it were squeezed through his teeth, chilling and icy.

Vicky could understand Tyler’s incredulity because she could not believe the situation she was in

herself. The man who had helped her so much over the years turned out to be Lincoln, the adopted son

of the Hart family.

It was unexpected, yet it made sense at the same time.

Vicky’s wrist was suddenly grabbed and roughly pulled as Tyler’s cold, dark eyes stared at her

intensely. “Is he the man you’ve been hiding all along?”

Surprise flickered in Vicky’s heart. She thought Tyler’s first reaction would be about her presence here,

but she did not expect him to ask about the mysterious man right away.

Tyler tightened his grip around her hand and started forcefully dragging her outside without a word.

Lincoln furrowed his eyebrows and held Vicky’s other hand.” Tyler, where are you taking her?”

Tyler’s icy gaze swept across Lincoln’s face. “Get lost. We’ll settle this later.”

However, Lincoln refused to let go. “Vicky is my girlfriend now. You have no right to take her away.”

“Girlfriend?” Tyler repeated with a playful tone. His oppressive gaze fell on Vicky. “Vicky, are you, his

girlfriend?”

In an instant, everyone’s eyes were fixed on Vicky.

She had received plenty of scrutiny before, more than what she was experiencing now, but she had

never felt as uncomfortable as she did at that moment.

Before Vicky could speak, Lincoln spoke up, “Tyler, you and Vicky are divorced. It’s her freedom to be

with whomever she chooses. You parade around with different women every day, yet you won’t allow

Vicky to start anew?”

Tyler ignored Lincoln and stared at Vicky unblinkingly. He asked in a tone that was cold enough to

freeze her heart,” Vicky, is he, or is he not, your boyfriend? I want to hear it from you.”

Vicky’s breath hitched as her fists clenched.

She knew what consequences she would face if she admitted to it but denying it would embarrass

Lincoln in public as well.

It was common knowledge that Lincoln and Tyler were bitter rivals, and she knew that she would be

humiliating Tyler by being seen with Lincoln.

She was shocked by the thought as she realized that she was still being considerate of Tyler’s feelings.
