Meanwhile, Orion quickly took out a relaxant pill and fed two to Valencia, which somewhat improved her hyperventilation.
Tyler noticed Valencia’s unpleasant expression and became curious about the woman Lincoln had brought with him.
When his gaze fell on the woman who had been facing away from him, refusing to turn around, his eyes widened slightly, and a hint of disbelief flickered in his eyes.
Lincoln had been observing Tyler’s expression all along and noticed the change in his face.
With a faint curve on his thin lips, he lowered his gaze to Vicky and said, “Vicky, come and say hello to my eldest brother.”
Lincoln and Tyler were born on the same day. Although they were mistakenly switched at birth, Tyler was still a true member of the Hart family, a genuine descendent whose position was above that of an adopted son.
To differentiate them, everyone referred to Tyler as the Eldest Young Master and Lincoln as the Second Young Master.
Vicky’s body stiffened. She was unable to turn around, let alone move.
“Vicky Shaw?!” Tyler’s voice sounded as if it were squeezed through his teeth, chilling and icy.
Vicky could understand Tyler’s incredulity because she could not believe the situation she was in herself. The man who had helped her so much over the years turned out to be Lincoln, the adopted son of the Hart family.
It was unexpected, yet it made sense at the same time.
Vicky’s wrist was suddenly grabbed and roughly pulled as Tyler’s cold, dark eyes stared at her intensely. “Is he the man you’ve been hiding all along?”
Surprise flickered in Vicky’s heart. She thought Tyler’s first reaction would be about her presence here, but she did not expect him to ask about the mysterious man right away.
Tyler tightened his grip around her hand and started forcefully dragging her outside without a word.
Lincoln furrowed his eyebrows and held Vicky’s other hand.” Tyler, where are you taking her?”
Tyler’s icy gaze swept across Lincoln’s face. “Get lost. We’ll settle this later.”
However, Lincoln refused to let go. “Vicky is my girlfriend now. You have no right to take her away.”
“Girlfriend?” Tyler repeated with a playful tone. His oppressive gaze fell on Vicky. “Vicky, are you, his girlfriend?”
In an instant, everyone’s eyes were fixed on Vicky.
She had received plenty of scrutiny before, more than what she was experiencing now, but she had never felt as uncomfortable as she did at that moment.
Before Vicky could speak, Lincoln spoke up, “Tyler, you and Vicky are divorced. It’s her freedom to be with whomever she chooses. You parade around with different women every day, yet you won’t allow Vicky to start anew?”
Tyler ignored Lincoln and stared at Vicky unblinkingly. He asked in a tone that was cold enough to freeze her heart,” Vicky, is he, or is he not, your boyfriend? I want to hear it from you.”
Vicky’s breath hitched as her fists clenched.
She knew what consequences she would face if she admitted to it but denying it would embarrass Lincoln in public as well.
It was common knowledge that Lincoln and Tyler were bitter rivals, and she knew that she would be humiliating Tyler by being seen with Lincoln.
She was shocked by the thought as she realized that she was still being considerate of Tyler’s feelings.
