Loving You In Secret

Chapter 1736

Chapter 1736

Vicky remained silent and did not engage in further conversation with Lincoln.

In turn, Lincoln maintained his harmless facade and did not push her to speak. Observing her reluctance to talk to him, he

left the room.

…

Vicky was awakened in the middle of the night by the sound of thunder and the ship violently rocking.

The cabin was illuminated by occasional flashes of lightning, and raindrops the size of beans streaked down the windows.

It was raining heavily. The rain at sea, especially in such intensity, posed a considerable danger.

Soon, Vicky heard hurried footsteps approaching her cabin.

Miranda, who was stationed at the door, noticed that Vicky had turned on the lights and knocked before entering. “It’s

raining outside, Ms. Shaw. Of course, there’s no need to worry. The captain has extensive experience in navigating rough

weather. We won’t run into any problems.”

Through the window, the surging sea relentlessly pounded against the deck. Its menacing appearance seemed as if it

could overturn the entire ship.

Vicky did not respond and simply stared at the heavy rain outside.

She had no idea where she was. Being pregnant, she knew attempting to escape was impossible. Even with the chaos

caused by the rain, she could never flee, and she did not want to waste any effort.

“I want to rest,” she said and turned off the lights to go back to sleep.

Vicky tended to be drowsy during her pregnancy, and the continuous rocking motion of the ship quickly lulled her back to

sleep.

She awoke to the sensation of something cold on her face and jolted awake.

Vicky opened her eyes to the sound of rain and the violently rocking ship. Lightning flashed, and the torrential rain showed

no signs of letting up.

The dim cabin light seeped in through the window as a tall, dark figure appeared at her bedside.

Startled, Vicky shivered with fear at the sight of the shadow. Before she could scream, a large, cold hand covered her

mouth.

“It’s me, Vicky.”

The man’s voice was deep and cold, and she recognized it instantly. It was the same voice she heard every day and night.

Vicky relaxed. “Tyler.”

Seeing that she recognized him, Tyler removed his hand.

His entire body was drenched from the rain, and the dim atmosphere made it impossible to discern his expression.

“Vicky, hurry and come with me. The speedboat is waiting below,” he spoke in a hushed voice.

As soon as he learned of Vicky’s disappearance, Tyler began his investigation.

Lincoln had been planning this kidnapping for a long time and took extensive precautions, even avoiding surveillance

cameras and monitoring systems.

Tyler spent some time tracing Vicky’s whereabouts. When he discovered that she had been taken by water, he realized

there was no time to pursue her by boat.

The bad weather prevented them from using a helicopter. On top of that, a helicopter was a conspicuous target and ran

the risk of being discovered by Lincoln. In the end, Tyler had no choice but to use a speedboat to rescue Vicky.

Speedboats had limited capacity, and to avoid detection, Tyler only arranged for one speedboat to be sent.

In this weather, it was extremely dangerous for both ships and speedboats to be at sea, and the risk of capsizing was

high. However, the risk of being discovered was much lower if one traveled in a speedboat.

Tyler successfully infiltrated and took care of the guards stationed outside Vicky’s room.

He acted swiftly and silently, eventually finding the room where Vicky was held captive.

Tyler was not afraid of a direct confrontation with Lincoln, given his skills. However, Vicky’s pregnancy complicated the

situation.

If Lincoln discovered Tyler’s presence, he would likely use Vicky as a hostage, putting her at risk.
