Chapter 1147


    Vicky lowered her head guiltily at Tyler’s words.


    She was furious at the time and said a lot of hurtful words, not knowing that he was doing everything


    for her sake.


    “I’m sorry,” she whispered.


    He embraced her. “Don’t apologize. I’m just doing what I should do.”


    The two bathed in the afternoon sun in silence. It had been some time since they had such a moment


    of peace.


    Sometimeter, he said, “Vicky, once this matteres to an end,e home with me, okay?”


    Vicky was stunned and hesitated.


    Knowing what she was concerned about, he tightened his arms around her. “My previous promise still


    stands. I won’t restrict your freedom anymore, nor will I interfere with your social life. However, you


    cannot have any contact with Lincoln.”


    Despite what he promised, Vicky was still reluctant to leave with him, but she understood that she


    could not stay with the Hart family any longer.


    Although she did not know who poisoned her, the fact that it had happened meant that someone had


    developed a deep hatred for her to the point of resorting to disfigurement as a means to harm her.


    Staying would not be any better than


    leaving with Tyler.


    With this in mind, Vicky nodded gently. “Alright.”


    Seemingly surprised that she agreed, Tyler was momentarily stunned.


    He unconsciously tightened his arms around her, his trembling arm betraying his unsettled emotions.


    After all his efforts, Vicky’s attitude toward him finally eased.


    Vicky looked up at him and asked the question she had been wanting to ask since discovering the

    Tyler lowered his head and kissed her deeply, answering Vicky’s question with his action.


    Vicky did not resist or struggle.


    Sensing her eptance, his heart raced, and his breath became even more erratic. He kissed her


    deeply and intensely, making it hard for her to resist.


    After a long while, Tyler finally stopped before Vicky was suffocated. “I will never leave you,” he said in


    a low, husky voice near her ear, a voice that held an indescribable allure.


    Vicky lifted her head and met his unfathomable gaze, and Tyler maintained eye contact with her calmly.


    Vicky’s heart skipped a beat, and she was the first to break eye contact, lowering her head. ‘ But, even


    I myself can’t ept being like this forever.”


    In truth, she could not ept living with such an ugly face, and she could not even bring herself to look


    into the mirror.


    “It doesn’t matter.” Tyler gently kissed her forehead. “I don’t care.”


    Vicky found it hard to believe.


    Not many people would focus solely on inner qualities and not care about appearances, especially so


    for someone like Tyler, who held a high position. Many women threw themselves at him regrly, and


    countless people had tried to curry favor by offering him various beautiful women.
