The pale look on Vicky’s face and the way she trembled pushed Tyler closer to snapping. His expression darkened as he pursed his lips. “So, you’re willing to leave with me?”
Despite his grim expression, his tone was indifferent, devoid of any emotional fluctuations.
Vicky’s attention was completely drawn to the gun in Tyler’s hand, and she did not notice that something was wrong. Worried that he might actually shoot, she nodded. “Yes, I’m willing to go with you.”
Tyler smiled ominously, and his eyes were filled with chilling coldness. “I’ve cajoled and pursued you for so long, and you’ve been unwilling to go back with me, yet you’re now agreeing to leave with me simply for Lincoln’s sake.”
Vicky sensed the sarcasm in his words and anxiously looked at Tyler. “Tyler, can you put the gun down, please? Let’s talk this out.”
Tyler chuckled lightly, mocking her. “If I put the gun down, would you still be willing to go with me?”
“Tyler, I…” Vicky was about to say something when Lincoln interrupted her.
“Vicky, don’t agree to leave with him!” Lincoln’s voice tightened, and the usually gentle smile on his face vanished without a trace, replaced by an unfamiliar sternness.
Lincoln was always refined and courteous, treating others with warmth and respect, knowing when to advance and retreat. If he sensed any discomfort from the other person due to his actions, he would immediately stop. Being around him was relaxed and pressure-free, like a warm breeze.
Vicky had never seen Lincoln look so serious, and she was slightly taken aback.
Lincoln stared into Vicky’s eyes, his tone heavy. “Vicky, I don’t need you to make such sacrifices for me. Moreover, I promised you that I’d never let him take you away, and I’ll keep my word.”
Upon hearing Lincoln’s words, Vicky’s eyebrows twitched.
At this moment, Lincoln’s words were like pouring fuel on the fire.
Tyler was never a man who fooled around, and he had no fear of putting his threats into action. As she had anticipated, Tyler barked a laugh upon hearing Lincoln’s words. “Lincoln, you sure are devoted.”
Lincoln met his gaze and smiled faintly. “I am the kind of person who treats others the way they treat me. Since Vicky is willing to sacrifice herself for me, how could I, as a man, cower and hide behind a woman?”
Tyler’s grip on the gun tightened suddenly, and his malicious intent became so intense that it sent shivers down one’s spine.
“In that case, if I don’t fulfill your kind intentions, wouldn’t
that be quite unfair to you?”
Facing the pitch-black barrel of the gun, Lincoln’s gaze remained steadfast. “You’ll have to step over my dead body if you want to take Vicky away today, Tyler!”
Tyler sneered and tightened his fingers around the gun. “Do you think I won’t dare to do it?”
“Tyler, don’t!” Just then, Vicky stood before Lincoln abruptly.
“I’ve already agreed to leave with you. Don’t shoot!”
Tyler stilled at the sight of her and narrowed his eyes dangerously. “Vicky, do you know what you are doing right now?”
“You want me to leave with you, right?” She stared into his eyes. “I’ve already agreed to it. What else do you want?”
“What else do I want?” A dazed look appeared on his face as he murmured, “That’s right. What else do I want?” Instantly, Tyler found himself lost.
