Loving You In Secret
Chapter 1630

Chapter 1630

Avery’s mood grew better once she learned Tyler only brought Vicky to the party to divert unwantedattention from her. This, in turn, made her less hostile toward Vicky as well.

She chatted with Tyler for a while before walking away reluctantly. With every step she took, she wouldlook back at him forlornly.

Vicky found the whole thing laughable. ‘Her standard of what ‘good’ is is very low.’

Throughout their conversation, especially about the part about using Vicky as a scapegoat, Avery andTyler spoke as if she was not there at all. Too lazy to make a fuss, Vicky stood silently with a boredexpression.

Not long after that, Old Mister Hart came down from his room. As the head of the Hart family and hisgrandson, Tyler was the first to wish him a happy birthday. As his date, Vicky had to accompany him.

Old Mister Hart must have been informed of her arrival since he did not look too shocked when he sawher. Instead, he smiled and nodded politely at her. His attitude was not wholly cold, but it could not becalled friendly either.

He treated her like any other normal guest, which showed how much more experienced he was inhandling awkward situations than Valencia.

Tyler handed Old Mister Hart the gift he prepared. “Happy birthday, Grandpa.”

After that, all the other family members passed him their gifts and well wishes too.

Once that was all done, Old Mister Hart waved his hand and said, “Thank you all for coming to mybirthday party. Since I’m getting old with age, I hope you all don’t mind me having an early night. Butplease, do enjoy yourselves for the night.”

The guests were used to Old Mister Hart leaving the party early. After all, his health and energy werenot as good as they used to be. They gave him a send-off with their eyes.

After that, the party became more casual. All the guests there were from prominent and powerfulfamilies, and since they rarely had the chance to gather, they quickly fell into easy conversations.

Tyler grabbed Vicky’s wrist after turning down the third heiress who came to ask him for a dance.“Dance with me,” he ordered her.

A few heiresses there eyed the position of Tyler’s wife ever since they heard the news of him breakingup with Avery. They did not care whether it was real or fake, and even if it was fake, they would dowhatever they could to climb into his bed.

As for his past marriage history, welL.that did not even matter. Normally speaking, a guy would lose hisvalue if he was a divorcee, but that rule obviously did not apply to Tyler. Quite a few of the heiresseshad been waiting for him to divorce Vicky ever since he got married so that they could be the nextMissus Hart. Of course, they would have to fight each other to get the position.

Vicky did not really want to dance with Tyler. After all, almost all of the heiresses of marriageable agewere looking at them. She was already the center of attention just for standing next to him, and sheknew they would be glaring at her and wishing she was dead should she dance with him.

Vicky put up some struggle, but it just made Tyler tighten his grip around her wrist. He did not give hera chance to turn him down; she was practically dragged to the dance floor.

Since she was there, it would be awkward if she did not dance. However, she exploded in rage whenTyler put his hand around her waist and pulled her close to him.

“Tyler Hart! What the hell do you think you’re doing?”

It would be fine if it was a normal dance, but what Tyler was doing at that moment was not normaldancing at all.
