Chapter 986
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Vicky chose not to act recklessly and instead left hand-in-hand
with Tyler. The onlookers could not help but discuss in hushed voices.
âWhat a perfect couple they are. It would be a pity if they broke up.â
âWell, young couples argue and quarrel. Isnât that normal for the youth? Who hasnât gone through that
stage anyways?â
âFrom the way they look at each other, itâs clear they canât stand to part from each other⦠I have a
knack for judging people. Trust me.â
Once out of sight from the crowd, Vicky coldly let go of Tylerâs hand.
âI have something else to do. Iâm leaving.â Tyler grabbed her back tightly.
âJoin me for a meal first. Iâll take you back later.â
âNot a chance.â Vickyâs tone was icy.
âAnd I can get back home on my own. Please, let go of my hand. Now.â
âAnd if I donât? Are you planning to call for more help?â Vickyâs expression stiffened. This man was too
cunning. She had intended to teach him a lesson, but she did not expect him to turn the tables on her.
âTyler, do you really think I have no other way to deal with you?â
âIâm sure you have many ways to deal with me over trivial matters like this,â he said calmly.
âSince you are aware of that, when are you going to let me go?â Vicky thought Tyler would continue to
pester her. To her surprise, Tyler actually released her hand. Vicky was momentarily stunned, but she
quickly regained her senses and took a few steps back, creating a safe distance between them while
watching him warily. Tylerâs lips curled slightly, as if he found Vickyâs actions amusing.
âVicky, are you turning a blind eye to the obvious?â Did she think she could escape from his clutches
once he physically let go of her? Having regained her freedom, Vicky did not want to spend another
moment with him and brushed his comment off. She glanced at him and hailed a taxi without thinking
too much.
The taxi pulled up beside her. As Vicky quickly opened the door, she still kept an eye on Tylerâs
movements just in case he pulled another stunt. This time, Tyler did not step forward to stop her.
Instead, he stood in place, silently watching Vicky, his expression calm and indifferent.
After closing the door, Vicky still found it hard to believe that Tyler had actually changed his mind and
let her go.
Now that she was further away from Tyler, Vicky could not be bothered to think about why he no longer
tried to stop her. She had been busy the whole day, and she was reaching a point of exhaustion, but
she did not dare to sleep in the taxi. Instead, she forced herself to stay alert, gazing out of the window
and recounting the event that happened.
Right then, the driverâs car screeched to the left of the road! Following the screech, the taxi was quickly
surrounded by a few police cars. A police officer walked out and demanded, âWe received a report that
someone in the car is carrying a large number of prohibited goods. All individuals in the car are step out
of the vehicle and cooperate with our investigation.â
The taxi was completely surrounded, so there was no route to escape. Vicky got out of the car in
confusion and the police officers proceeded to open the back truck on the taxi. Their expression
darkened and said, âMaâ am, please follow us to the police station.
â Vicky did not know what they found in the back trunk as she was only a passenger and had nothing to
do with it, so she explained, âI just got into this taxi. I didnât know he had prohibited goods in his carâ¦â
