Vicky was not surprised that Tyler would say something like that. He was exactly the kind of person. However, even so, her face still went pale when she heard that.
"Are you telling me that, even if we're divorced and you've remarried, I still cannot be with someone else?"
"I have no plans to remarry."
'That's not the point! The point is he's still trying to control me even though we're divorced. What's the point of getting a divorce from him if he still gets to dictate what I can and cannot do while he can do whatever the hell he wants?!' thought Vicky.
"As long as I haven't remarried, I'll feel uncomfortable seeing my ex-wife with another man. When I feel uncomfortable, there's no saying what I'll do… So, if you don't want anyone to get hurt, it's best to stay off men for the moment," said Tyler coldly.
The good-tempered Vicky finally lost it. She glared at him coldly and said, "You have no right to control me anymore! Tyler Hart, do you seriously think that I can't do anything about you?"
It was obvious that was Tyler's exact thought. He asked, "Do tell. What can you do about me?"
Suddenly, his eyes turned sharp as though he had thought of something.
"You think Lincoln is going to help you?" His expression was one of contempt and mockery. "He's only good for making shady deals behind other people's backs. You can't possibly think that he was helping you out of the kindness of his heart. You're nothing but a tool for him."
"It's better to be a tool than a pet without freedom. I'm warning you, Tyler. I don't want to be involved in any of your family matters anymore, so don't ever force me into the corner. If you do, I'm going to bring you down with me!"
Tyler was not threatened by her at all. "It's getting late. I'll give you a ride home."
"No. That won't be necessary. I can get home by myself," said Vicky coldly.
Tyler ignored her refusal and said, "Let's go."
Vicky stared at him impassively before turning around to go the other way.
