Chapter 1207
Lincoln calmly listened to Avery’s usation and exined, “This is the only way to get her to let her
guard down.”
He took a sip of his tea and continued, “I impersonated the mysterious man who helped her throughout
the years to get closer to her, but she’s held back toward me still. She wouldn’t trust me if I didn’t help
her during this event.”
The anger on Avery’s face subsided slightly, but she continued sarcastically, “You’ve helped her so
much, destroyed your own face, and got shot. Still, she hasn’t really trusted youpletely… Lincoln,
you aren’t as attractive as you think you are.”

Lincoln remained silent.
Indeed, ever since he admitted to being the mysterious man, he made a point to assist Vicky a couple
of times, but Vicky continued to maintain a certain distance from him.
Obtaining Vicky’s trust was so challenging that he had to admit that he wasted a lot of energy on it.
Avery did not mind his silence and continued, “We made a deal. You want the power that Tyler holds,
and I…want Tyler to myself.”
Lincoln turned his gaze toward her. “Once he has nothing, will your family still find him desirable as
your match?”
Avery raised her chin proudly. “The Yeagers don’tck money or influence, and we don’t need a
marriage alliance to solidify our family’s status. I’m the only daughter, so my parents will never allow me
to suffer in another family, so him having nothing actually benefits us, as he can marry into my family
instead.” A small smile formed on Avery’s lips.” When I mentioned this to my parents, they both agreed
that Tyler is an eligible match for me.”
The Yeagers were a top-tier elite family, surpassing even the Hart family despite the Hart family’s
considerable aplishments.
Lincoln, when he was engaged to Avery and with the Yeagers ‘ support, firmly established himself in
the Hart family, which just showed how powerful the Yeagers were.
With only Avery as their only daughter, her future husband could eventually inherit all of the Yeager
family’s assets. Even regr individuals, let alone someone like Lincoln from a top-tier elite family,
would be tempted.
He wanted to be the heir, but that required navigating various power struggles within the family.
However, he could obtain an estate rivaling the Hart family’s if he married Avery. Who would not be
tempted by that?
Regardless, he had no interest in bing a son-inw, let alone obtaining something that came so
easily. Some things only held a sense of aplishment when fought for.
“Considering how prideful Tyler is, he might not be willing to marry into your family,” Lincoln reminded.
Previously, when Tyler found that he was a member of the
Hart family, he refused to return, so one could easily guess that he would be reluctant to marry into
another family.
Avery smirked smugly. “Marrying into my family isn’t something anyone is capable of. Whoever wins
me will gain the world; any man would be tempted by that. If it weren’t for our cooperation to sow
discord between him and Vicky, do you think I’d willingly wade into the mess amongst the Harts?”
Avery’s target had always been to marry Tyler, and she could care less about the power struggle within
the Hart family.
She nced at Lincoln, who was sipping his tea on the couch, and lowered her voice. “Lincoln, Tyler
will catch wind of this since we kidnapped Vicky in Stoneford City. Once Tyler goes to rescue Vicky, the
fact that you’ve been impersonating the mysterious man will be exposed…”
“What I expose is merely my false identity, but what Tyler exposes…” Lincoln leaned back, his eyes
shimmering cunningly as he continued, “Are hisst cards.”
Avery was taken aback. “Cards? What do you mean?”
Lincoln poured a cup of tea and handed it to Avery. “Don’t you know anything about your future
husband?”
Avery impatiently urged, “Just spit it out, Lincoln. Don’t keep me guessing!”
Lincoln smiled faintly. “Have you ever wondered why Old Mister Hart treated Tyler with such respect
after he arrived here?”
Avery was bewildered. “How is that rted to the so-called cards you mentioned?”
