Chapter 1069
'Money...' Vicky thought.
She had thought that he learned the truth, but it turned out that he assumed she did it for money.
However, she had already made the decision to leave Tyler, so there seemed to be no point for her to explain
herself.
"Tyler, your grandfather is asking for you."
Tyler did not show any intention to leave and held onto Vicky's wrist. "You are coming down with me."
Vicky scowled. No, I'm not."
"It's not up to you." With that, Tyler dragged her outside.
Had Tyler not been so insistent with the divorce, Vicky would have thought that he could live without her based on
his current actions. However, after experiencing his ruthlessness, Vicky knew that he no longer had a heart.

Seeing that there was no response from inside the door, Valencia's knocking became more urgent as though she
was about to break the door.
Just as Valencia was about to force her way in, the door suddenly swung open.
She was surprised to see Tyler coming out with Vicky but managed to maintain her composure.
When she noticed that Tyler was still holding Vicky’s hand, her expression immediately darkened. "Tyler, what are
you doing?"
Tyler did not even bother to look at Valencia and went downstairs, dragging Vicky along the way.
Valencia was infuriated and panted heavily.
'Vicky Shaw! That vixen! Not only has she seduced Tyler, but she also managed to seduce Lincoln, who has always
been obedient to me, causing him to defy me repeatedly! This woman is nothing but trouble. She must not be
allowed into the Hart family, and I won’t let her seduce any of my sons!' She thought angrily. Her gaze turned cold
as she watched the two head down the stairs.
Downstairs, Old Mister Hart was sitting in a chair, leaning on his cane, and enjoying some tea.
When he saw the two coming downstairs, he greeted them with a gentle smile. "Vicky, Tyler, you've arrived."
Tyler's expression was indifferent. "Old Mister Hart, what brings you here?"
Old Mister Hart glanced at Vicky, who was brought downstairs reluctantly. "I heard that Vicky was planning to stay
here with us for a while, so I came to see her."
Old Mister Hart had high emotional intelligence and spoke with great precision, which Valencia could hardly hold a
candle to. Hence, compared to Valencia, Old Mister Hart was even more intimidating and elusive.
Tyler said in a domineering tone, "Vicky wont be staying here, I'm taking her away right now."
Old Mister Hart sighed softly, then said, "Tyler, this is no way to pursue women. I know how Vicky is. The more you
force her, the more she’ll resist you. Besides, women need to be cajoled. You can’t just be so forceful all the time."
Resigned, Old Mister Hart looked at Tyler. "Tyler, you're great at everything, but your emotional intelligence leaves

I don’t know what happened between you two, but no matter what, she's angry right now and doesn't want to go
with you. Why not let her stay here for a while? That will give both of you some time to calm down and stabilize
your emotions.
Perhaps the situation will improve then," Old Mister Hart suggested.
"During this time, I will take good care of Vicky and won't let anyone bully her... With me here, what do you have to
worry about?" Old Mister Hart added.
Old Mister Hart did not mention the Starlings, Valencia, or Lincoln. He even seemed to have completely forgotten
that Tyler and Vicky had already divorced, because he knew that mentioning those things would only agitate Tyler
further.
Moreover, knowing Tyler's character, he would prefer a confrontation. That way, he could take Vicky away by force.
However, Old Mister Hart went against the grain. Like a wise elder, he gently persuaded Tyler, making it difficult for
people to dismiss his goodwill.
