Chapter 723
The outside world terrified Vicky. If she was not angry at him, she would have never left the house, especially when
it rained so heavily.
Tyler no longer hesitated as he strode out of the room with his phone and called someone.
"I don't care what you do. Ten minutes... No! I'm giving you five minutes to track down the girl I asked you to find
last time."
"That girl again?" came the voice of a man from the other end, sounding curious and shocked. "Tyler, have
you...fallen in love with her?"
"It's none of your business. Just find her!"
The man hesitated and said, "Tyler, you know you shouldn't be restrained by a relationship at an important time like
this. If Lincoln Hart learns about this, he can make use of her and stop you from returning to the Hart family."
"I never want to go back anyway," Tyler said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I know you don't want to go back, but...you don't have a choice now. They know the truth. Your existence has
seriously affected Lincoln’s status. If you don't go back, he'll get rid of you at all costs. I know you don't care about
the Hart family or the business, but their power is beyond you now. And..."
The man paused before continuing, "Lincoln is engaged to the daughter from the Yeager family. Do you know why
he was so eager to proceed with the engagement before you come back? Because he knows the Yeager family is
going to be his strong support after the engagement. Even if his real identity is exposed in the future, he'll be able
to stand firm with the support from the Yeager family.
"Tyler, I'm sure you've heard of the Yeager family before. Even Senior Hart is wary of them. Lincoln has enamored
his fiancee, and she only wants him as her husband. That means even if Lincoln isn't heading the Hart family in the
future, he's going to be the one making calls for the Yeager family... You've been losing since the start of the race. If
you don't look for someone with a strong family background, it's going to be hard for you to survive in the Hart
family.".xo
After much hesitation, the man continued, "Your parents also know Lincoln isn't their son, but they agreed and have
helped him with the engagement. Up until now, they didn't have a plan to see you... Tyler, I fear they've made up
their mind by supporting Lincoln instead of you, so-"
"You have four minutes left," interjected Tyler, finally having enough of the man's long-winding speech of
persuading him.
His indifferent attitude showed that what the man said was nothing to him.
"Tyler..." the man called out to him, wanting to continue his persuasion, yet Tyler did not respond.
He was waiting for the lift, wanting to head out to find Vicky.
During the waiting time, he made the call.
Ding! The door of the lift opened.
Just as Tyler was going to walk in, he saw a woman standing inside. The woman was soaked due to the rain, and she
looked worse for wear.
It was cold due to the rain, which caused the woman to shiver. She was going to exit the lift when the lift stopped.
Suddenly, she noticed something and raised her head, shocked to see the handsome face she had been seeing for

Before she could say anything, she found herself pulled into a tight embrace.
He hugged her so tightly that she felt her bones might crack.
To Tyler, however, he did not dare to let her go in fear he might lose her.
When Vicky furrowed her eyebrows and wanted to say how pained she was, she discovered-to her absolute shock-
that Tyler's body was trembling.
At that moment, an indescribable moment overwhelmed her.
"Ty..."
Tyler looked down and kissed her passionately.
Their bodies pressed against each other, so much so that they could hear their breathing and heartbeat.
Vicky felt Tyler's heart pound rapidly. She was dumbstruck.
Was he...scared?
The door of the lift closed automatically, and Vicky did not manage to get out of the lift.
Once they were back in the apartment, Vicky explained why she left.
"You didn't answer my calls, so I got worried. I was going to go to your office to look for you."
