Chapter 1212
Lincoln was a perspective man and would not let the slightest hint escape him.
Following this faint trail, Lincoln began his investigation but found very little useful information. Nonetheless, his intuition told him that Tyler was related to the mysterious man somehow.
Everything seemed to fall into place with a direction in mind. However, no matter how convinced he was that Tyler was the mysterious person, it would only be speculation as long as Tyler refused to admit it.
Therefore, Lincoln planned the kidnapping, determined to unveil Tyler’s true identity.
Lincoln feigned confusion at Tyler’s silence. “I don’t understand you. On one hand, you’re pushing Vicky into despair, but on the other hand, you’re secretly helping her. What’s your motive? It’s the same thing with you telling everyone that you and she were divorced, when in reality… you haven’t divorced at all. What are you trying to do?”
Vicky was stunned by Lincoln’s words as she was merely trying to maintain her composure upon learning that Tyler was the mysterious person all along.
“What did you just say?” she asked Lincoln while she stared at Tyler.
Lincoln looked at her with surprise. “Vicky, don’t you know
about this?”
“Lincoln, are you trying to mess with me?”
Lincoln smiled. “I know you don’t believe me, but why don’t you ask Tyler? You can find out about the truth from him, right?”
Vicky stared at Tyler unwaveringly as Tyler refused to meet her gaze. Her blood ran cold as she knew his silence meant he was admitting to what Lincoln was saying.
The shock left Vicky feeling light-headed, and she staggered backward, her body on the verge of collapsing.
Lincoln reached out in time to support her. “Vicky, are you alright?”
As soon as Lincoln touched Vicky, Tyler’s eyes gleamed maliciously. “Take your hand off her!” He demanded.
Lincoln chuckled lightly. “Tyler, it’s better for a man to be magnanimous. Instead of explaining yourself to her, here you are getting jealous over the tiniest thing.”
Tyler’s expression darkened. “Lincoln, let her go.”
Lincoln did not continue provoking him and cooperatively released her hand before asking curiously, “Tyler, can you explain why you’re a walking dichotomy?”
Lincoln could not fathom what Tyler was truly thinking as Tyler could not seem to make up his mind about how he felt about Vicky.
Tyler’s voice remained cold. “Why should I explain myself to you?”
“Alright, you don’t have to explain yourself to me.” Lincoln shrugged. “But shouldn’t you at least explain yourself to Vicky?”
Tyler fell into silence.
Just then, Vicky sneered. “I’m just a toy to play with when you’re bored, aren’t I, Tyler Hart? You put me in despair, then came to rescue me as though you’re my savior. Once I trust you, you then tell me that the one person I’m most thankful to is the same person who hurt me most… Do you hate me that much, Tyler, to the point that you’d spend years plotting against me? Are you never going to stop until I go crazy?
“Oh, right. There’s also the divorce. You made me think we can start fresh, then divorce me, only so that you can come and tell me that we were never divorced once I start living a new life.” She gritted her teeth. “All this, just to show me that I can never escape your control-that I’ll forever be yours to toy with!”
Everything had been a lie, and her life had been completely ruined by Tyler.
