Adam could tell that Tyler and Vicky's relationship had improved and decided not to hold back. "Old Mister Hart has something important he wants to discuss with you. He wants you to come over."
Tyler's parents and Old Mister Hart had not returned to their home country yet and were temporarily residing in the estate where they used to live.
"What important matter?" Tyler asked.
Adam glanced at Vicky, then whispered, "It seems to be related to...Miss Avery Yeager."
Tyler narrowed his eyes. "I see."
Vicky's gaze flickered, and she glanced at Tyler to find the same expressionless look on his face.
"Should I drop Ms. Shaw off first?" Adam asked.
"That won't be necessary."
Adam's expression shifted slightly, but he dared not to argue with Tyler.
Vicky did not want to meet Tyler's family, so she suggested, "You should go ahead. I won't come along."
Tyler shot her a sidelong glance. "Why not?"
"Whatever Old Mister Hart wants to tell you must be very important, so I shouldn't be there," she explained.
"Nonsense." Tyler squeezed Vicky's hand. "You'll have to meet them sooner or later."
Understanding his implication, Vicky was about to say something but swallowed her words under his insistent gaze.

As they sat in the car, Vicky was about to browse through the latest news. However, messages from her friends kept popping up.
