Chapter 1157
A sound came from the door. It was faint but noticeable.
"Who's there?" Tyler narrowed his eyes and opened the door abruptly.
He frowned at the sight of the familiar figure before him and was stunned when he saw the smooth, fair skin on the
woman's face.
Vicky's face had recovered.
Realization dawned on Tyler, and he instinctively reached for her hand. "Vick-"
Slap! Vicky glowered at Tyler as she smacked his face.

Although she found out what happened, hearing their conversation in person still made Vicky's blood run cold.
"Tyler Hart, I never expected you to be so cruel!" Vicky gritted her teeth as she glared hatefully at Tyler.
Tyler, who had always been composed and unruffled, could not help but panic.
Not bothered by being slapped, he said hastily, "Vicky, let me explain."
"Sure, I'll listen to your explanation." Vicky did not leave and stood in place. She glanced at Avery, who was sitting
on the ground, then looked at the bottle of poison on the coffee
table. Finally, her gaze fell on the vial in Tyler's palm as she sneered. "I'm curious to see what kind of nonsense you
can come up with to deceive me this time."
Three days ago, Vicky received a call from Lincoln saying that he found the antidote for her. However, even though
Tyler promised her freedom, there were still plenty of guards around the mansion.
Over the course of three days, Lincoln had found a woman with a similar side profile to Vicky. To avoid arousing
suspicion from Tyler, Vicky dared not leave the mansion. Instead, she intentionally wandered around the vicinity of
the mansion, taking advantage of the guards who were not paying attention to slip away.
Early in the morning today, Lincoln picked her up and administered the antidote, so she had arrived at the Harts'
mansion earlier than Tyler.
After temporarily neutralizing the toxin, Lincoln discovered that Tyler had come to the mansion and taken Avery
away by force.
Avery was Lincoln's fiancee, so it seemed strange for him to abduct Avery, and Vicky was alarmed as she thought
about it.

She followed the guards sent to capture Avery silently, trying to get closer to the room. However, the two guards
were too vigilant, and Vicky was unable to approach the room unnoticed.
In the end, with Lincoln's help, they managed to lure the guards away, allowing Vicky to finally get closer. The first
sentence she heard was Avery saying, "Shouldn't you be happy? You've achieved your goal, and someone else took
the blame for it."
Upon hearing this, Vicky was still confused. However, as she listened closely to the following conversation, she soon
realized that Tyler ordered Avery to poison her.
Tyler held Vicky's shoulders and stared into her eyes. "If I were to say that I didn't poison you, would you believe
me?"
"Of course, I believe you didn't poison me." Vicky smirked." After all, Avery was the one who poisoned me, under
your order."
