Loving You In Secret
Chapter 824

Chapter 824

Tyler emerged from the darkness; his twisting tall shadow was reflected on the wall.

Vicky sensed something was different between the kidnapping this time and the kidnapping last time. Her palms became slicked with cold sweat as she stared at the approaching man with wavering eyes. She could feel a wave of oppression washed over her, and the temperature around her dropped to zero as he approached.

“You…” croaked Vicky. It was only then she realized her voice was hoarse.

“Are you surprised?” Tyler condescendingly looked down at her with cold, cold eyes. She had never seen him look at her like that as if she was nothing but a stranger to him. In fact, his eyes were even colder than the first time they met.

Tyler seemed to have changed a lot in a short month. He had lost a lot of weight, but apart from that, Vicky could not quite put her finger on the other changes Tyler had undergone as she had no idea just what kind of torture he had been put through.

Noah called her before she was kidnapped, but their call was cut short by Tyler. She could only vaguely remember Noah saying something along the lines of Tyler escaping from somewhere or something.

Tyler leaned down slightly. He looked at her with none of the usual warmth in his eyes.

“Did you really think it’ll be that easy to get rid of me?” asked Tyler.

Vicky could feel his icy breath on her face; the chill immediately seeped into her pore and traveled down to her heart. They were once lovers, but at this moment, they were nothing but strangers to each other.

His gaze was like a sharp knife cutting into her, so she quickly lowered her head to avert his eyes. However, he was having none of that. He roughly grabbed her chin and jerked it up, causing her to yelp

out in pain.

There was a cold, sinister glint in his eyes. Every pore on his body seemed to be emitting an air of hostility.

“I told you. If I die, you die too,” said Tyler, enunciating each word clearly.

Vicky’s eyelashes quivered lightly, and she opened her mouth to say something but decided to swallow back those words.

Tyler waited for her to say something. His eyes became blood-red when he finally realized she was not going to say anything.

“Vicky, don’t you think I’m worth more than a hundred and fifty million dollars you’ve sold me out for?” He squeezed her chin tighter, and two red fingerprints immediately appeared on Vicky’s face.

She turned pale, feeling as if her lower jaw was about to explode.

“It’s pain—” She wanted to say something, but the pain prevented her from finishing her sentence.

Tyler’s eyes became colder when she stopped speaking.

“Why aren’t you talking? Do you have nothing to say to me?!” roared Tyler. Although he was not known to be a gentle person in more normal times, he was definitely not as rough and cruel as he was at this moment.

Vicky’s eyes began to water from both the pain in her heart and the pain in her body. Then, drops of tears flowed down the corner of her eyes, dripping onto Tyler’s slender fingers.

Tyler was startled by the cold, salty liquid falling onto the back of his hand. However, he soon returned to his icy self.

“Putting on an act, are we now?” he asked cruelly. “Vicky Shaw, I’ll never believe you again.”

Vicky remained silent while her tears never stopped gushing out of her eyes. It was only then Tyler realized that purple bruises were beginning to form on her skin, causing him to instinctively let go of her.

The pain subsided for Vicky, but still, she cried silently. She was never the type to wail and sob uncontrollably. Not knowing why, Tyler suddenly became anxious when he saw Vicky like this.

He swallowed back his anxiety and coldly said, “Stop crying.”

This only made Vicky lower her head to hide her tears.

“I said, stop crying! Didn’t you hear?” thundered Tyler impatiently.

“Tyler, why don’t you just kill me already,” pleaded Vicky tearfully.

Tyler grabbed her neck and snarled, “You don’t think I have that in my mind?”
