Vicky obviously knew what Tyler was referring to as a kiss.
After a few moments of hesitation, she kissed him once again, only this time, it was no longer a peck but a passionate kiss.
Just as she was about to end it, he grabbed her by the back of her neck and pulled her toward him, causing her to fall onto his lap.
“B*stard, let her go!” The man on the ground struggled in rage.
Not only did the other man not let her go, but he even deepened the kiss so eagerly that even his bodyguards looked away from the sight.
Vicky instinctively tried to shove the man away at the sound of the other man shouting, and the suffocating kiss finally ended.
She opened her eyes and found herself gazing upon a pair of dark, pensive eyes while the man studied her with a faint sneer and cold expression. “It looks like you really want me to break his legs.’
She halted and said, “I don’t mean that. There are just too many people around, and I’m a little uncomfortable. D—Don’t misunderstand.”
The look in his eyes darkened, and Vicky gritted her teeth before moving closer to kiss him again.
Unlike the time before, the man simply allowed the kiss passively and kept his eyes trained on the man on the ground.
“Tyler Hart, you b*stard! You never loved Vicky, so why won’t you set her free? You-“
Tyler interrupted him. “Mister Torres, Vicky is my wife now. You tried to run away with my wife. Don’t you think it’s a bit shameless for you to say such a thing?”
“Wife? Have you ever treated her like that?! If only you had, she’d never try to leave you!” Mister Torres roared.
“That’s between me and her. It’s none of your business,” Tyler looked down at the man on the ground in contempt. “Mister Torres, any man would find it hard to tolerate another man coming to steal his wife away.” He turned to look at his bodyguards. “Why are you just standing there? I told you to break his legs, didn’t I?”
Vicky’s eyes widened and she blurted out, “You promised me…” novelbin
“What did I promise you?” Tyler smiled mockingly.
Vicky froze as she realized that he never made her a solid promise. All he did was make a request and lay out a trap, and she jumped in without hesitation.
She grabbed the hem of his skirt and begged, “What can I do for you to let him go?”
“Mister Torres tried to kidnap you and as punishment, he’s losing his legs. Of course, if you care for him so much…” He shot Vicky a soulful look. “You can take the punishment in his place.”
“No!” Mister Torres shouted. “Vicky, you can’t agree to that!”
Vicky did not look at Mister Torres and simply kept her eyes trained on Tyler. “Okay.”
Tyler’s expression darkened.
Vicky stood by the side as she observed the scene. For reasons she could not begin to explain, she could sense how her other self felt at the scene and knew that she only agreed to take the punishment
because she did not wish to owe Mister Torres anything.
“Vicky, don’t!” Mister Torres was still shouting, but his voice started to grow distant.
All Vicky saw was Tyler grabbing the baseball bat from one of his bodyguards and walking toward her with his arm raised before he swung at her feet.
“Aahh!”
