Chapter 1451
Vicky fell into silence. She was not surprised at all as Lincoln had been trying to outwit Tyler for quite
some time.
“Then there’s that Avery…” Old Mister Hart sighed lightly.” Avery’s grandfather and I were childhood
friends. I’ve watched her grow up, just like I have with Lincoln.
“She’s the only daughter of the Yeager family, so it’s natural for her to be spoiled. From a young age,
she has gotten everything she wanted. Overtime, this became an ingrained trait. She’s intelligent and
sharp, but she’s too arrogant. She’ll resort to anything to achieve her goals. Honestly, when she got
engaged to Lincoln, I had my reservations. Lincoln is ambitious and skilled, but trying to control Avery
is challenging. After all, the Yeager family is vast and influential. If it ever came to a fight, even Lincoln
wouldn’t be able to wrest any benefits from her, let alone you.”
Finally grasping his implications, Vicky realized Old Mister Hart was subtly hinting she would not stand
a chance against Avery or the Yeagers.
“That’s why girls like Avery aren’t quite suitable as brides for the Harts. At least while I’m alive, I don’t
want any of the Hart descendants marrying her-“
“If you have something to say, Old Mister Hart, please go ahead and say it,” interrupted Vicky.
Old Mister Hart’s tone remained gentle. “Vicky, the situation in the Hart family is far moreplex than
you imagine. I’m sure you’ve noticed that by now. Valencia and Lincoln aside, countless enemies lurk in
the shadows; those who despise Tyler are trying their best to undermine him. Some of them even plot
to kill him.
“Now, Avery, having discovered Tyler’s weakness, is joining forces with Valencia to deliver a fatal blow.
Though they seem to be targeting Tyler, it’s you that they’re targeting. Since they couldn’t exploit Tyler
as they wish, they’re attacking you instead. They’ve been sessful in driving Tyler to his current
state. If a little more time passes and Tyler’s mind copses entirely, their n wille to fruition.”
Hearing Old Mister Hart’s words, Vicky understood the intention behind his call.
“Do you want me to leave him?”
“Right now, Tyler is under hypnosis, and he despises you. Leaving him would be beneficial for him.”

Vicky clenched her phone. “I already abandoned him before. This time, I’ve promised him I won’t give
up on him, no matter what happens.”
“Even if he remains with you and loses his sanity? Even if he dies?”
“I know you’ve endured Tyler’s torment and actively sought treatment, but it’s been a while now. Have
you found a solution?”
Vicky could not bring herself to argue.
“To be honest, I haven’t contacted you until now because I wanted to see if you could truly cure Tyler. If
you have a real solution and Tyler can’t be without you, I would’ve considered helping you out. I wanted
to give you more time, but Tyler can’t wait any longer. I can’t just watch my grandson as he’s being
destroyed. That’s why I decided to call you, Ms. Shaw.”
Vicky’s voice gave away no emotions. “Are you implying you’re willing to help him recover if I leave
him, Old Mister Hart?”
“Let’s say I cure my grandson and allow the two of you to continue being together, but what then? The
others will still use you against Tyler. I have the means to resolve this, but what about the next time
around? What about Tyler? He’s powerless if the others make use of his only weakness and harm
him.”
Vicky swallowed hard. “Old Mister Hart, I can agree to any other terms, but I promised Tyler that I-“
“So you’d rather watch him die than give up on fulfilling your words?” interjected Old Mister Hart. “Ms.
Shaw, forgive me for being blunt, but what you’re doing is merely selfsatisfaction.” Old Mister Hart’s
usually gentle voice was tainted with seriousness. “You only have two options now. Firstly, you can
continue to be with him and cure him… If his condition worsens, he might not be willing to be with you
any longer regardless of what you think. Secondly, you can leave him and let others fix him so he can
live a normal life.”
