Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1050

Vicky looked up at him. "You don't want to be a murderer, do you?"

Tyler stared at her quietly for a moment, before saying, "Seeing how you performed well today, I can let the Harrisons off the hook. For now."

"For now?"

"That's right. If you upset me again, the Harrisons will suffer again."

Vicky's heart sank.

With Cece and Jennifer gone, Tyler had resorted to using the Harrisons as his hostage.

"For how long?" She said abruptly.

"What?"

"How long do you want me to keep sleeping with you?"

"Obviously, until I lose interest in y-"

Before he could finish, Vicky interrupted him.

"Our arrangement ends on the day of your wedding." Determination and resolve flickered in her eyes. "If you still want to use the Harrisons to pressure me into doing what you want after your wedding day, then I'll just let you be."

Tyler was somewhat surprised. "You don't care about the Harrisons anymore?"

Vicky's tone was calm. "I don't want to hurt one person for the sake of another. Besides, if the Harrisons face bankruptcy today because of you, they might face it due to someone else's schemes some other day. I have limited abilities, and I'll do my best for the Harrisons. The rest... The rest will be beyond my control, and I'll leave it to fate to decide."

She could bow down to Tyler's coercion if necessary, but she would never let him manipulate her forever. If he pushed her to the edge, she wouldn't fear confrontation and would let go of everything so he would have nothing to hold over her.

Confronted by her bright and clear eyes, Tyler momentarily lost his composure.

He knew she had her limits; even if he could threaten her into complying temporarily with all means at his disposal, he could never control her forever.
