Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1197

"If I had no ulterior motives, why would I approach Sheila, scheme to sleep with you, stage a coincidence to run into you at the hospital, and let you know about my pregnancy?" Vicky smiled coquettishly. "Did you think I'm doing it all for love?"

Tyler gazed at her smile, his gaze growing d more intense. "What if I refuse?"

Vicky caressed her belly. "I have plenty of ways to keep this child from being born, Mister Hart. Don't you agree?"

The room fell into suffocating silence, with only the rhythmic ticking of a clock audible.

After some time, Tyler broke the silence. "Vicky, you schemed against me and pushed Sheila down the stairs, and I have yet to punish you for that."

Vicky showed no fear. "If Sheila knew that this child was gone, it'd probably bring her more relief than any other form of revenge, wouldn't it?"

"Are you threatening me, Vicky?"

Vicky chuckled lightly. "What kind of threat could I pose in the face of the almighty Mister Hart? If you don't want to be threatened, it's simple: make this child disappear. You won't have to worry about my threats anymore, and you can retaliate against me without any constraints, just like you did before…using any means necessary."

The look in Tyler's eyes darkened, and he studied Vicky's indifferent expression in silence.

After a while, he got up and left Vicky's house.

As the door closed, Vicky collapsed weakly onto the couch, her back soaked with cold sweat.

...

Not long after Tyler left, Vicky sent a message to the mysterious person.

[I've talked to Tyler about the conditions, but he hasn't given me a response... Will this really work? Tyler despises being threatened, and now, he misunderstands that I hurt Sheila's hand. I'm afraid he'll be even more repulsed by me.]

Soon, she received a reply. [Are you afraid that he'll hate you?]
