Chapter 819


    When his gazended on the ount number, the light in his eyes dimmed.


    Vicky sensed his despair and clenched her fists before loosening her grip and turning to look at Tyler.


    “Tyler, you still remember what I’ve done for you to get money when we first met, right?”


    Tyler knew that she was in desperate need of money, and he had asked her why after they started


    dating. At the time, Vicky said, “I want to be free, and I need savings to achieve that.”


    There was not a soul on earth that did not want money, and that was what Tyler used to believe.


    However, it seemed challenging for him to ept it at the moment.


    He stared into her eyes and moved his lips to speak, only to recall that he had nothing to offer.


    He could not offer her what she wanted, and it seemed normal that she would want to leave as all


    rtionships were based on mutual benefits.


    Sometimeter, he muttered hoarsely, “Vicky, you once said that you’d stay by my side no matter


    what…”


    Promises were unreliable and could be broken at any moment, or contracts andws would never exist


    in the first ce.

    Tyler had always thought that promises couples made to one another were ridiculous and he never


    believed in them. Hence, he never made Vicky any promise.


    At this very moment, he finally realized that he had taken her promise to heart and was even


    attempting to make her stay with what he onceughed upon because he had nothing valuable enough


    left to change her mind.


    Vicky chuckled sarcastically. “Tyler, don’t you know that promises are nothing but words once love is


    gone? You know how cruel the world is, better than I do. Most people would dly choose money over


    love.” She handed the phone back to Magnus and said, “Mister Hawthorne, I want to know how exactly


    you’re going to keep me safe. After all, he mighte and kidnap me again.”


    “Don’t worry, Miss Shaw. We’ll continue to protect you in the days that follow. As for him…” Magnus


    nced at Tyler with a smile. “He won’t be able toe after you if he is locked up.”


    Vicky frowned. “How long will you keep him locked up?”


    “That’s not up to me, but to the government here. He has injured enough people for him to remain in


    prison for a long time.”


    After a few moments of silence, Vicky said, “It’s gettingte. Send me home.”


    “Sure.”


    Just as Vicky was about to leave, she was pulled backward and found herself looking into a pair of


    bloodshot eyes.


    “Vicky, I told you that you’re not going anywhere without me.”
