Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1493

Tyler wanted to explain himself, but he was never good at it. In the end, he muttered, "It's a misunderstanding."

Both Vicky and Chris looked at him condescendingly.

Tyler's grip tightened around her wrist. Just as she was about to snap, he pulled her away abruptly. "Come with me."

She wanted to fight back, but Tyler was too strong.

Chris wanted to help, but Tyler simply shot him a sidelong glance contemptuously and said, "Are you sure you can stop me?"

Chris paused in his tracks.

Tyler had an air of complete disregard for him as he added, "Step aside and save yourself the embarrassment."

Indeed, Chris could not stop Tyler from taking Vicky away. Tyler was legally Vicky's husband, while Chris was merely a friend to Vicky. Naturally, a friend had no right to intervene in a marital matter.

It was unbecoming for adult men to engage in street fights like common thugs, and on top of that, Chris knew from Lincoln's information that Tyler was skilled in combat. Knowing that Tyler was the man who single-handedly caused the entire Hart Family to descend into chaos, he knew better than to challenge Tyler directly.

Vicky shook her head at Chris. "You should go."

Observing Vicky's concern for Chris even in this situation, Tyler's gaze turned increasingly bloodthirsty.

Vicky had been nothing but cold toward him, and the fact that she was worried about Chris's well-being drove him mad with jealousy.

Tyler took her hand and led her in the direction of the piano.

His hand was slightly cool to the touch, and she could feel the calluses at the tip of his fingers.

Tyler's busy work schedule did not prevent him from maintaining a strict regimen. He allocated a fixed amount of time each week for exercise, marksmanship practice, and combat training. Hence, his fingertips had a layer of calluses, mainly concentrated around the base of his thumb and forefinger.

As he held Vicky's hand, she could clearly feel the slight calluses on his five fingers.

Walking up to the piano, Tyler released her hand. Casting a sidelong glance at her, he said, "I had intended to surprise you on your birthday."

It was only then Vicky realized her birthday was just two days away.
