Chapter 1122
Valencia wanted to refute Tyler's claims, but she knew clearly that he must have had solid evidence to say
something like that. In other words, it would be useless for her to play dumb.
After a few minutes of silence, she stiffly said, "It's true. I did force her to break up with you, but so what? It wasn't
like she put up any fight at all. In fact, she caved in after I applied some pressure. Unlike you... You wouldn't give her
up no matter what we did to you, and what does this mean? It means she doesn't love you as much as you love
her."
This time, it was Tyler who fell silent as no matter what, he was tied by blood to the Hart family, so he would need
to endure more physical and emotional stress than Vicky.
Regardless, he could take it all in strides. What he truly could not accept was Vicky demanding a breakup.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtValencia snuck a peek at Tyler, and she instantly understood what his cold expression meant. After all, she had
been through the same thing in the past. It would be normal for Tyler to not understand why Vicky insisted on
breaking up with him a few years ago because he was still young and inexperienced in love at that time. However,
so many years had passed, and it would be impossible for him to have the benefit of hindsight.
The fact that he could say something like that meant he had fully looked into the matter...but what did it matter? All
the
suffering and despair Vicky went through... That would never be reason enough for him to forgive her. How could
she give up first when he did not? This all pointed to the fact that the love Vicky had for Tyler was only on the
surface.
Valencia could tell with one glance Tyler had not made peace with the cold truth, so she softened her voice to
advise him, "Tyler, you should know very well that children born into a prominent family don’t really get a say on
who they can marry. Even if you stayed with your other family, do you think your parents would have agreed to let
you marry Vicky? No, right? On account of her ordinary background.
"So, while it might be true we're the obstacles to your relationship, it doesn't mean we're the deciding factor on
whether you two will stay together or break up. And if we're not the obstacles, someone else will come along. Even
if we didn’t stop you, the two of you will surely face other obstacles in your relationship, and if you or she can't even
overcome something like this... Well, what's not to say you won't break up when a bigger obstacle throws a wrench
into your relationship?
"For example, you went through a lot of hardships to be with Vicky. No matter how much we forbade you to be with
her, it didn't change your resolve to make her your wife, and you got your wish eventually. If she had held on to you
as you did with her in the beginning, our opposition would've eventually lost its meaning. Then, no one would ever
be able to separate the two of you."
At that moment, Valencia had fashioned herself as a touchstone of a good relationship. It was as if all the faults
were Tyler's and Vicky's. She even made sure to avoid bringing up the past hurt she and the other Hart family
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmembers had brought onto them.
Tyler's eyes darkened. He looked at Valencia and, in an apathetic voice, said, "How she treated me is between me
and her only. That means I alone get to say how she'd be punished. What you did could only be deemed as
presumptuous."
Valencia nearly choked on her anger. All the things she said had fallen on deaf ears. It was the same thing all over
again; Tyler would not break up with Vicky no matter what they said. She even started thinking that the only way to
make Tyler give up Vicky was if he was lying six feet underground.
"Tyler, are you sure you want to go against your parents for that woman?"
"If you insist on targeting Vicky, then I'm sorry-the answer is yes," answered Tyler nonchalantly.
Valencia's face reddened with rage. "But she's fooling around with Lincoln as we speak! What's so good about a si* t
like her?"
"I don’t like you speaking about her like that," Tyler cut in coldly. "It's best if you don't speak ill of her in front of me,
or I'll be very angry."
