Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 568

After a few moments of silence, Gloria said, "Vicky came by today."

"What was she doing here?"

"To apologize, and to beg for mercy in Alex's place."

The look in Tyler's eyes darkened.

Gloria studied his face. "Tyler, are you holding Alex prisoner?"

"Yes."

"Is he..." she muttered hesitantly. "How is he now?"

"Alive for now."

Her heart sank and she thought, 'Alive for now? Will anything happen to him?'

"Tyler," Gloria whispered. "I've known Alex since we were kids. He might be a hothead, but he's not a bad man. Maybe he just wasn't thinking when he did all that. I'm fine now, so why don't you just let him go since he has been punished accordingly?"

"Don't worry about Alex. I will handle it," replied Tyler.

"Tyler, can't you just leave it?"

"You should be resting," he said and turned to leave.

"Tyler!" Gloria raised her voice. "Are you this reluctant to set Alex free because he kidnapped me, or because he...took Vicky and left?"

Gloria was never one to spread rumors about others, so she did not discuss Tyler's identity at school since Vicky seemed to prefer keeping a low profile.

When Alex confessed to Vicky, everyone thought that he was Vicky's mysterious boyfriend all along and Gloria spotted Tyler in the crowd at the time.

Vicky did not want to embarrass Alex in public, so she accepted the bouquet and the crowd around her cheered. However, Alex and Vicky never dated afterward.

"Tyler, do you know what Vicky said when she came to me today?" Gloria took out a recording device and played the conversation between her and Vicky.

"If you're willing to help, I can promise to do anything in return within my power."

"And if I ask that you leave Tyler and divorce him?" came Gloria's voice from the device.

After a moment of silence, Vicky said, "Sure. If you can convince Tyler to accept that, I will cooperate unconditionally."
