Chapter 1097

"Lincoln Hart, I'm warning you, stay away from Vicky. If you dare to come near her again..." Tyler sneered ruthlessly. "I don't mind destroying your manhood once and for all."

Tyler froze, not expecting Vicky to take Lincoln's side. "What did you just say?"

"Tyler, have you ever considered why I kept this matter a secret, or why Lincoln does it? Do you think I'm afraid that Missus Hart will come after me and dislike me even more?"
