"You''re right. I''m doing this under someone''s order.”
Vicky was not surprised. "Under whose order?"
“Lincoln Hart," replied Chris without hesitation.
Vicky frowned and turned to look at him. “What exactly did he tell you to do?"
"Tyler cannot be ced under any form of stress right now, and Lincoln wants me to provoke Tyler until
he goes insane.” What surprised Vicky most was that Chris was telling the truth. She muttered, "Why
are you...”
“I met Lincoln Hart after I was forced to leave Zendonia. He helped cure my mother, and I ended up
working under him. At that time, he took a liking to my abilities and wasn''t aware of your connection to
me. Until not long ago, he wanted to take Tyler down and consulted a few of us for a solution. I
voluntarily brought up my history with you and offered to undertake the task,” he exined. “Once he
learned about our past, Lincoln was greatly pleased and sent me here. He only knows that I used to be
your assistant and was driven away by Tyler, but he isn''t aware of the finer details."

Vicky had alreadyprehended Chris’ intention, and a conflicted look emerged on her face. "You
didn''t need to do this.”
Chris had hardly been discreet with his intention when he tried to sow discord between Vicky and Tyler.
He was a clever and capable man, skilled in achieving his goals imperceptibly. Given his sudden
appearance and her inquiries, the fact that he made it so obvious fully suggested that he was actually
trying to help her.
Chris understood she had guessed his motive and did not borate. “Your significance to Tyler is far
from ordinary. From Lincoln''s perspective, you''re the most useful pawn. For Old Mister Hart—who aims
to bring Tyler back to the family— you are the greatest obstacle in his way. You can''t continue your
rtionship with Tyler. If Old Mister Hart loses his patience, he might choose to eliminate you. With you
gone, Tyler will likely resent his family, and Old Mister Hart''s n might fall apart. Hence, Old Mister
Hart won''t take a reckless move unless he''s left with no other option. Once Old Mister Hart learns he
can''t get his way, he''ll make his final move. That''s why he didn''t intervene when he knew Avery was
hypnotizing Tyler, even though he knew the consequences of it.”
Hearing Chris’ exnation, Vicky quickly deduced Old Mister Hart''s intention. "Are you saying he''d kill
me to provoke Tyler?"
"Exactly." Chris'' tone remained even and emotionless. "It''s ideal if he can control Tyler, but if he can''t, it
won''t matter whether Tyler bes insane or dies. Once Hart Corporation loses its leader, seizing
control of it would be easy.”
After Tyler''s absence, Hart Corporation''s stock value would inevitably plummet, and thepany
would experience some turbulence and repercussions. However, this would only be temporary.
With the Hart family backing it, thepany would not go bankrupt. In fact, many might view the Harts
as the best option to rely on and switch sides to align with them. Still, this would cause a temporary
loss to Hart Corporation and would require at least a year to recover the loss. Hence, this was not the
optimal choice for Old Mister Hart.
As Chris drove steadily, he analyzed the situation in an organized, calcted manner. "Lincoln Hart''s
objective is to reap the benefits in the confusion. He wants to create a favorable situation for himself
before Old Mister Hart makes his final move."
A chill ran through Vicky''s heart, leaving her lost for words as she realized that every person
surrounding Tyler harbored ulterior motives. They lurked in the shadows, ready to deliver a fatal blow
during a critical moment so they could take advantage of Tyler.
