Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 990

The afternoon sunlight shone into the office, lighting the entire room.

Still, the temperature inside remained freezing cold.

"On the first day Ms. Shaw was arrested, she met with Cece and Jennifer, and nobody else. Yesterday, Anthony found his way to meet with Ms. Shaw in secret in the afternoon and..." Harry bowed his head, not daring to continue.

Tyler leaned back elegantly on his chair, his lips curling into a cold smirk. "Did Anthony take Cece and Jennifer away with him?"

"Y-yes."

Tyler remained quiet for a while.

"Mister Hart..." Harry asked gingerly. "What do we do now?"

"Since Vicky plans on being stubborn, let's see how long she will last," Tyler said coldly.

Harry knew what Tyler meant — he wanted to keep Vicky locked up but Harry did not have the courage to confirm it otherwise. "Yes, sir."

...

Vicky had been imprisoned once before, so entering prison again did not make her feel too out of place.

Anthony had already taken Jennifer and Cece away, and from now on, Tyler will no longer be able to use them to threaten her.

She would never allow herself to become a mistress or a pet under Tyler's control.

The problem at hand was not actually difficult to solve, but Vicky would rather be locked up than beg Tyler for help. She refused to be manipulated by him time and time again.

She knew that seeking Tyler's help would come at a cost and she would never allow herself to sink to the level of a homewrecker or a lover. Now that Jennifer and Cece were gone, she wanted to see what else Tyler could do to force her into submission.

...

The stand-off between Vicky and Tyler was the hardest on people like Harry.
