Loving You In Secret (Vicky and Tyler) novel Chapter 570

Selene stared at Gloria. "I know that you're not that kind of person, but you need to understand that when a man gets hurt in a romantic relationship once, it's hard for him to start anew with someone else. Gloria, you can't expect Tyler to treat you the same way he did with Vicky... I know that it's not fair, but you know that a man's first love can't be replaced. If he fell in love with you first, you'd have that special place in his heart as well. He has his guard up right now after failing in his first relationship... That's the time when a man needs to be cared for by another woman.

"Isn't that the reason why you didn't agree to go out with him when he pursued you back then? Time has changed, and four whole years stood between the two of you. If you expect him to pursue you or treat you like he did Vicky... Gloria, I'm certain that it'll never happen until you get him to open up to you."

Gloria froze for a long while before reaching out to grab Selene's hand. "Selene, you are right. Something must've gotten in me."

...

After leaving the hospital, Tyler did not return to the office or home and instead arrived at a remote building. As soon as he opened the door, the scent of blood filled his nose.

The young man tied to an iron rack looked up and snorted when he saw Tyler stepping in.

"Oh, my. Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today, huh? Who crossed our almighty Mister Hart here?" Alex stared at the man before him mockingly despite all the bruises that covered his face.

Tyler glared at him coldly. "Have you not learned your lessons, Alex Torres?"
