Chapter 1493
Tyler wanted to explain himself, but he was never good at it. In the end, he muttered, "It's a misunderstanding."
Both Vicky and Chris looked at him condescendingly.
Tyler's grip tightened around her wrist. Just as she was about to snap, he pulled her away abruptly. "Come with me."
She wanted to fight back, but Tyler was too strong.
Chris wanted to help, but Tyler simply shot him a sidelong glance contemptuously and said, "Are you sure you can
stop me?"
Chris paused in his tracks.

Indeed, Chris could not stop Tyler from taking Vicky away. Tyler was legally Vicky's husband, while Chris was merely
a friend to Vicky. Naturally, a friend had no right to intervene in a marital matter.
It was unbecoming for adult men to engage in street fights like common thugs, and on top of that, Chris knew from
Lincoln's information that Tyler was skilled in combat. Knowing that Tyler was the man who single-handedly caused
the entire Hart Family to descend into chaos, he knew better than to challenge Tyler directly.
Vicky shook her head at Chris. "You should go."
Observing Vicky's concern for Chris even in this situation, Tyler's gaze turned increasingly bloodthirsty.
Vicky had been nothing but cold toward him, and the fact that she was worried about Chris's well-being drove him
mad with jealousy.
Chris sensed Tyler's hostile stare and decided not to linger any longer.
Knowing when to retreat was not a lack of courage but an understanding of one's limitations so as not to create
unnecessary trouble. After all, it was Vicky who would have to pay for any trouble he caused.
Despite the intense anger Tyler felt towards Chris, the priority at the moment was to make sure Vicky did not get
the wrong idea, so he led her into his car, swiftly started the engine, and drove away.
40 minutes later, Tyler parked the car in front of a mansion.
Vicky's expression darkened slightly as she recognized that the mansion seemed to be the same one from the video
she saw.
Pushing the door open, Tyler turned on all the lights in the room.
Crystal chandeliers above emitted bright and dazzling light. The spacious and grand living room lay open before

corner.
Tyler took her hand and led her in the direction of the piano.
His hand was slightly cool to the touch, and she could feel the calluses at the tip of his fingers.
Tyler's busy work schedule did not prevent him from maintaining a strict regimen. He allocated a fixed amount of
time each week for exercise, marksmanship practice, and combat training. Hence, his fingertips had a layer of
calluses, mainly concentrated around the base of his thumb and forefinger.
As he held Vicky's hand, she could clearly feel the slight calluses on his five fingers.
Walking up to the piano, Tyler released her hand. Casting a sidelong glance at her, he said, "I had intended to
surprise you on your birthday."
It was only then Vicky realized her birthday was just two days away.
