Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1083

When Lincoln woke up, it was already late at night.

The room was lit with a warm orange glow, bright but not glaring. Vicky stood by the window, silently gazing at the moon outside, lost in her thoughts.

"Vicky..." A weak voice came from behind her.

Vicky turned around and saw that Lincoln had awakened. She hurried over and asked, "Second Young Master, how do you feel now?"

Lincoln silently looked at her for a few seconds. "Do you have to be so polite with me?" he muttered with a faint sigh.

Vicky's lips moved, but no words came out.

"I know we've only recently met in person, but we've known each other for many years. We can consider ourselves old friends. I understand that you're in a difficult position because of Tyler, but that's a matter between men..." Lincoln's gaze softened as he looked at her. "You don't need to take sides, nor do you need to choose between us."

The injuries on Lincoln's face looked rather alarming, but his eyes remained tender and carried a reassuring strength.

Tyler and Lincoln, in terms of character and temperament, were like night and day. One was cold and oppressive, while the other was gentle and considerate.

Vicky suddenly understood why Valencia and Orion preferred Lincoln over Tyler.

Noticing her silence, Lincoln did not press the matter further and glanced around. "Where am I...?"

Vicky whispered, "After you fainted, I didn't know who else to turn to for help, so I went to find Old Mister Hart... This is his residential area."

Lincoln was sharp enough to instantly realize Vicky's true intention and that she sought Old Mister Hart's help just to keep Valencia and Orion from knowing about his injuries, which were caused by Tyler.

Instead of exposing her, Lincoln smiled and said, "In that case, I'll be relying on you and Grandfather during this time."

Vicky felt even more guilty as she realized that Lincoln had guessed her intentions. "I'm sorry for causing you such a severe injury because of my relationship with Tyler."
