During their day-to-day activities and moments of rest, Tyler was remarkably considerate and attentive to Vicky.Both Jennifer and Cece had shared a few lunches with Vicky, and Tyler's care for her at the dining table appeared meticulous. Even though both Cece and Cece disliked Tyler to a degree, they could not find any fault in him when he took care of Vicky so well.Aurora, on the other hand, had a different perspective. "Delayed affection is worthless. Is it that meaningful to be nice to her after all the pain he put her through?"Aurora sat on the couch in the guest room, waiting for Vicky to finish her work so they could have lunch together. However, she noticed that Tyler had left Vicky's office not long ago.Jade, who had been diligently guarding Vicky, came over.Surprised by Tyler's departure, Aurora could not help but ask, "Why did Tyler leave?"Lately, whenever she sought Vicky out, Tyler always stayed by Vicky's side, using the excuse of being her bodyguard. In truth,

These troublesome customers were capable of anything when they went berserk, and Tyler ordered Jade to stay with Vicky at all times.As soon as they arrived downstairs, Vicky noticed a young girl who recently joined the company being viciously beaten by a domineering woman.The woman, in her thirties, had a fierce look in her eyes as she struck the girl while hurling curses."You shameless homewrecker! I was wondering why my boyfriend has been ordering custom clothes so often lately. Turns out it's because of you, the wretched woman who seduced him! I'm going to beat you to death, you wretch!"Many employees were trying to restrain the woman, but she brought along a few friends, making it impossible to contain her outburst.The young girl's cheeks were swollen from the beating, and she looked pitiful.Seeing this scene, Vicky furrowed her brow.Jade, fearing for the well-being of Vicky's unborn child, whispered, "Ms. Shaw, please don't go over there."Vicky understood the sever

Vicky understood Lincoln's message clearly. Her movements were confined to this room, and if he suspected she tried to escape, she would end up tightly bound.It did not take long before someone knocked on the room's door, and Miranda entered with a tray of food."Mister Hart, this is the meal you requested for Ms. Shaw," she said.Lincoln took the tray. "Yes, you can go now," he replied, his eyes briefly glancing at Vicky.Vicky made no attempts to shout or question Miranda, and she did not lose her temper either. After all, doing any of that would not change anything.Lincoln approached Vicky with the tray. "You must be hungry after going a day without food," he remarked, lifting the utensils as if he intended to feed her.Vicky instinctively avoided his hand. "I can manage on my own."Lincoln did not push further and handed her the tray.The food was plentiful and clearly well-prepared.Vicky did not have much of an appetite, but under Lincoln's watchful eye, she picked up

Stealthily taking someone away was the safest approach.Vicky nodded softly at the suggestion. "Alright."As she was about to get out of bed, Tyler suddenly held her back.Confused, Vicky turned to look at Tyler, who pulled out a raincoat he prepared."Put on the raincoat," said Tyler.Conflict filled Vicky's eyes. "Why aren't you wearing a raincoat?"Tyler helped her put on the raincoat and hoarsely replied, "It affects visibility and movement."Vicky thus put on the raincoat.Following Tyler's lead, they quietly left the cabin.Outside, the rain was pouring heavily, and thunder rumbled in the background.The ship rocked continuously in the tempest.The deck was very slippery due to the rain. Vicky nearly slipped a few times as they walked but was steadied by Tyler in time.In the dim light, his strikingly handsome face appeared exceptionally pale. He held her wrist tightly, his fingers cold as though they belonged to a lifeless body.His expression remained calm, his gaz

Vicky's eyes were fixed on Tyler's tall, imposing figure. He stood amid the raging storm, unmoving.On the ship, Lincoln watched as his subordinates fell around him. This did not faze him, and he even smiled slightly. "You know your way with guns, no doubt," he remarked, looking at the gun pointed at him. "But you're out of bullets now, aren't you?"Tyler's gaze darkened, but he did not say a word."I kidnapped the woman you care about the most. Given your personality, you would've shot me the moment you saw me if you had any bullets left. You didn't," Lincoln continued.Tyler had always been a decisive person who did not hesitate, so his failure to shoot Lincoln indicated he ran out of bullets.Lincoln smugly waved the gun in his hand. "You're out of bullets, but I'm not." He released the safety and alternated the aim of the gun between Tyler and the speedboat. He chuckled softly and said, "Tell me: Should I kill you or Vicky Shaw?"Without waiting for Tyler's answer, Lincoln co
