“My mother will apologize to you in person later,” Lincoln repeated with a smile.
“She… She’ll come and apologize to me in person?”
“Yes.”
Vicky was in disbelief. ‘The headstrong Valencia is willing to apologize to me?’ 1
Even though what happened was Valencia’s fault, Vicky understood it would be impossible for an elderto apologize to someone younger than her. In fact, the best way to deal with the problem was topretend it never existed. Even Tyler, in a bid to assuage the public, requested Vicky to apologize toValencia. ?
Sensing Vicky’s disbelief, Lincoln added softly, “Vicky, I’ve talked to my mother, and she promised notto make life difficult for you anymore.” Then, his tone became apologetic. “I’m so sorry. I was the onewho asked you to stay here, yet I didn’t manage to protect you… Instead, I let the person closest to mehurt you.”
Vicky felt a little embarrassed by how cold she treated him moments before after she heard what hesaid.
“It’s not your fault; you don’t have to be sorry. You helped me out so many times before, but I seemedto have caused you nothing but trouble…so I should be the one apologizing to you.” After a pause, sheasked, “How did you manage to persuade her into doing this?”
“I cleared up the misunderstanding and bias she seemed to hold toward you.”
Vicky wanted to ask Lincoln if he ended up fighting with Valencia because of her but felt it would makeher seem pretentious if she did ask that. Thus, she decided against asking.
Lincoln, being the sensitive guy he was, knew from Vicky’s silence what she was thinking but did notforce her to say it. Instead, he said, “I’m just glad you’re okay. I’ll let you get on with your day now. Callme if there’s anything.”
“Sure thing,” said Vicky before hanging up the phone.
An hour later, Valencia went to see Vicky alone. Seeing the question in Vicky’s eyes, she coldly said,“Lincoln’s still recovering from his hives, so I thought it’s best he didn’t come with me. His hives actuallyworsened after he insisted on coming out of his room to help you yesterday.”
Vicky’s eyes wavered. ‘Seems like she still has no idea that it was Tyler who caused Lincoln’s face tobreak out in hives.’
Her heart turned cold after recalling how unrepentant and unremorseful Tyler was about what he did. Inhis eyes, Lincoln was a devious man willing to do anything to achieve his goal, yet Lincoln was alwaysthe one who got hurt in the end. 2
“Is he doing better now?” asked Vicky lightly.
“Well, at least he’s still alive, which is more than I can hope for after all the things you did to him.”
Vicky fell silent. It was pointless to say anything more since doing so would only elicit more sarcasmfrom Valencia.
Valencia did not seem like she wanted to spend more time with her, so she immediately got down tobusiness. “The reason I’ve come today is to apologize to you and, well… I promise I won’t make lifedifficult for you in the future.
Having said that, I hope you can walk the other way when you see me the next time.
“And… Even though I don’t like Avery that much, I’d still choose her over you, so it’s not becoming forLincoln to spend all his time and attention on you. I’ve made up my mind to keep their engagementintact, so I hope you’ll keep your distance from Lincoln from now on.”
