Chapter 970
All eyes were on Vicky, but she remained silent, not uttering a word.
For everyone present, her silence was equivalent to her acquiescence.
Valencia was infuriated to the point that she was about to faint.
Even though she had taken the relaxant, she could not suppress her raging anger after learning that
both of her sons were involved with a woman that she disapproved of.
It was understandable that Tyler was not close to them since he had not been raised by her since
childhood. However, she had much higher expectations for Lincoln.
Trembling, Valencia pointed at Vicky. She was so enraged that she struggled to form a complete
sentence. âYouâ¦
Youâ¦.â
In the end, she rolled her eyes back and passed out on the spot.
Valenciaâs collapse caused chaos at the banquet.
Orion shouted, âDoctor! Get a doctor!â
âCall an ambulance!â Lincolnâs expression also changed slightly as he stepped forward to assess the
situation.
While Lincoln went to check on Valencia, Tyler took the opportunity to snatch Vickyâs hand away from
him.
Lincoln instinctively frowned and was about to follow when Orion stopped him. âLincoln, do you really
want to abandon your own mother for a woman?â
Although Lincoln was not Valenciaâs biological son, she treated him better than her actual son.
The fact that Lincoln had shown up with Vicky on the day of Valenciaâs birthday, causing her to faint,
was already wrongful of him. If he were to leave Valencia behind, he would be considered disloyal and
unfilial.
Just as Lincoln hesitated, Tyler pulled Vicky away.
The look in Lincolnâs eyes darkened as he watched their figures disappear into the distance.
In the quiet and serene backyard, a gentle moonlight cast a hazy layer of light and shadow, turning the
entire garden into a picturesque scene. However, neither Vicky nor Tyler cared to appreciate such
beauty.
After reaching an empty corner, Tyler finally released her hand.
Instead of questioning her angrily, he calmly uttered,â Explain yourself.â
Everything happened too suddenly. Vickyâs mind was somewhat confused.
She never expected the mysterious man to be Lincoln.
No wonder he had always refused to tell me his true identity. He knew that once he revealed his
identity, I would never contact him again. And now, Iâve already divorced Tyler and Lincoln sees no
reason to hide his identity any longer!â Vicky thought to herself.
Along the way, Vicky contemplated how she could explain herself to Tyler. However, when faced with
his cold gaze, she found herself blurting out, âMister Hart, we are divorced.
I donât see why Iâm obliged to explain myself to you.â
The look in his eyes darkened as he asked, âLincoln is that guy, isnât he?â
Vicky understood what he was asking and remained silent.
She, too, had just found out that the mysterious man who had been helping her turned out to be Lincoln
Hart.
However, she saw no reason why she should explain this to Tyler since they were divorced.
Vickyâs silence caused Tylerâs expression to darken even further. âI donât care how long you two have
been together behind my back. You will cut all ties with him right now!â He commanded.
