As he finally controlled his anger after a while, Tyler said in a deep voice, “The Hart family is moredevious than you think. Staying here any longer will only put your life in danger. Do you understand?”

Vicky scoffed. “And who’s to blame for that?”

She would not have ended up in the Hart family’s place if Tyler did not hurt Lincoln. It was he who didnot think of the consequences. It was not like they would do anything to Tyler since he was related tothem by blood. She, however, was an outsider. If it were not for Old Mister Hart, whose position had notbeen determined, Tyler would have taken Vicky away a long time ago.

Tyler fell silent as he did not know how to answer her, but after a while, he said, “The Yeagars wouldnever call off the marriage, so you’ll only make an enemy out of them if you’re too close with Lincoln.”

“It’s simple, then—I’ll just have to stay away from Lincoln,” replied Vicky indifferently. In other words,she had no intention to leave with Tyler, and this made his temper flare up again.

“And about what happened this time.” Tyler’s voice turned cold. “In a sane person’s eyes, it looked likeyou pushed my mother into the water out of self-defense, but you should know my family has neverbeen the one to be reasonable. If word get out about what you did, do you think my family will

help you over Missus Hart?”

“So you want me to apologize to her? Fine, I’ll do it,” replied Vicky lightly.

“Just how badly do you want to stay here?” growled Tyler.

Vicky chuckled wryly. “It’s not that I want to stay like…the only way I can get away from you is to stayhere.”

“Get away from me?” At that point, Tyler was in full-blown rage mode. “Do you want to get away fromme that much?”

“Yes. Very much so.” Vicky, too, could not keep her temper in anymore. She became as furious as Tylerwas. “I wanted to do so many years ago. You should know that.”

She would not have brought up the past if it were not for Valencia making her life difficult and Tylerforcing himself onto her today. She was too young and naive then. In other words, she was no matchfor Valencia, who was used to pulling underhanded tricks to survive in a family like the Harts. Being soexperienced, Valencia only needed to say a few words to make Vicky see how futile it would be for herto stay with Tyler.

Vicky could have chosen to stay with Tyler even if she was forced to break up with him, but she did not,and she had come to regret that decision, especially after knowing how much she had hurt him andwhat the Hart family did to him after that. However, while it was true it was her fault for breaking up withTyler in the past…all the guilt she felt for him gradually dissipated each time he took revenge on her.

‘I hate how he won’t take no for an answer. Maybe my breaking up with him in the past was all part ofhis plan to buy himself some time to gain a foothold in the Hart family and make me put down myguard. Maybe…he never thought of letting me go in the first place,’ thought Vicky.

So many years of deliberation were enough to show Vicky how terrifying Tyler was, and she becamerightfully afraid of him. She had no will to endure his revenge anymore.

She thought Tyler would erupt in anger when she brought up the past, but for some reason, he actuallycalmed down.

His powerful arms subconsciously tightened around her. “It wasn’t your fault,” he said in a tone thatseemed to be trying to convince himself more than her. “You wouldn’t have broken up with me if they

didn’t force you to do that.”

Vicky felt her breath catch in her throat. “You knew all about it already?”

“Yes,” said Tyler after a moment of silence.
