That was what Tyler did all the time. If he wanted something done, he would target the people around Vicky, leaving her no choice but to obey him.
Vicky was dumbfounded and felt pathetic.
Despite having married him for years, she had no clue who her husband was after all that time.
...
Two days later, Jennifer ran into a male customer who tried to take advantage of her and slapped him, causing her to be arrested as well.
Harvey, on the other hand, had to travel overseas to handle some troubles. Vicky knew that she could not wait any longer.
She called and texted Tyler, but there was no response.
She then went to Hart Corporation to look for him, but Tyler seemed to be prepared and had erased the record of her fingerprint from the digital lock on the office door.
Vicky waited outside his office for a whole day, but there was no sight of him. She finally realized that Tyler was avoiding her.
He offered to negotiate, and she turned it down. At this point, he would not let her reach him so easily.
Vicky stood by the window, gazing into the dark expanse of the night as she picked up her phone and made a call.
The call was quickly answered. "Vicky, do you need my help with something?" The man's warm voice flowed like water, soothing her soul.
Vicky replied in a low voice, "Yeah. I want to know about Tyler's whereabouts. Can you look into it for me?"
"No problem." The man's voice paused slightly, then continued, "I've heard about recent events. Should I intervene...?"
Vicky interrupted him before the man could finish. "You mustn't take action. He doesn't know who you are yet, so he can't harm you. Once he discovers your identity, he won't let you off. Besides, this is Zendonia. You can't stop him from doing what he wants to do here."
Vicky was right. No matter how capable that man was, he was definitely no match for Tyler in Zendonia. The man understood her reasoning and did not insist. "Today is Aurora's birthday. He should be attending her birthday banquet."
