    Chapter 1115


    All heads turned toward the source of the voice.


    A tall, slender man appeared seemingly out of nowhere.


    He wore a hat, a mask, and sunsses that almost obscured his entire face, but one could still make


    out small red rashes on the exposed skin.


    As soon as Valencia caught sight of him, her expression changed instantly. She hurriedly approached


    him, her voice filled with concern. “Lincoln, why are you here? Your injuries haven’t fully healed, and


    you shouldn’t expose your face to the wind… Hurry, hurry, go back and rest!”


    Valencia paid no attention to Vicky and attempted to usher Lincoln away. However, he stood his


    ground, unmoving. “I heard you fell into the water, so I came to check on you. Are you alright?”


    Lincoln’s concern seemed to greatly please Valencia. “Can’t you see that I’m perfectly fine now?


    There’s nothing wrong with me. You don’t have to worry about me. Go back and rest.”


    Instead of leaving, Lincoln’s gaze shifted toward Vicky.” Vicky,” he said, his eyebrows furrowing as he


    noticed the redness on her face. “What happened to your face?”


    Vicky remained silent.


    It was only at this moment that Valencia, who was driven by her maternal instincts earlier, suddenly


    realized that Lincoln’s presence here could not have been solely because he heard about her falling


    into the water.


    Their residential area was a considerable distance from theke, and it had not been long since she fell


    in. Even if Lincoln received words about the incident, it would have been impossible for him to arrive so


    quickly.


    The only possibility was that Lincoln had learned that Vicky was being picked on and hurried over.


    With this thought in mind, Valencia’s expression darkened.” Lincoln.” Her tone softened. “Do you know


    how your mother ended up in the water?”


    Lincoln averted his gaze. “How did you end up in the water?”


    Valencia pointed at Vicky. “It was this woman who pushed me into theke, nearly killing me. Lincoln,


    what do you think should be done to someone who tried to harm your mother?”


    Lincoln’s smile remained unchanged. “Mom, you’re still drenched, and there are many people around


    here. Why don’t you go back and change your clothes? If there’s something you want to say, we can


    discuss it when we get back home.”


    “I’m just worried that once we go back, the culprit will flee in fear,” Valencia said sarcastically.


    “It won’t happen,” Lincoln assured her. “I promise to make this right for you. Mother, don’t you trust


    me?”


    Indeed, many people had started to notice themotion and nced in their direction from time to


    time. If they continued to cause a scene, there was a chance that Old Mister Hart would catch wind of it


    and, given his tendency to meddle, he might take Vicky away without any chance of resolution.


    With that in mind, Valencia rxed slightly and finally relented. “Let’s go back so I can get changed,


    then.” Valencia nced at Vicky. “Miss Shaw, don’t forget toe along. We still have some matters to


    discuss…and rify.”


    Vicky was brought back to where Valencia lived, and along the way, Tyler kept a firm grip around her


    wrist, preventing her from running away.


    Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    In the end, she gave up as she needed to preserve her energy for the fight that was toe.


    Avery, too, followed the group.


    Upon returning to the house, Valencia went to get changed, while Tyler brought Vicky to an empty


    guest room.


    After ordering the servants to bring the first aid kit and ice pack, Tyler started to apply ointment onto


    Vicky’s swollen cheeks.
