Loving You In Secret

Chapter 1669

Tyler tightened his hold on Vicky’s waist and calmly stated,” I’m sorry, but I’m getting married soon, so I can’t marry you.”

Avery widened her eyes. “Even if I’m carrying your child?”

Tyler nodded. “That’s correct.” 3

Avery could not believe her ears.

Her face twisted with rage, and she gritted out, “If you won’t marry me, there’s no reason for this child to exist!”

Avery’s threat did not even faze Tyler. “If you insist on not having the child, I’ll respect your choice.”

Avery took a few steps back. “What did you say?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“I’ll respect any choice you make.” 1

Avery thought that she held an ace in her hand, only to be proven wrong as she did not imagine that Tyler would respond in such a manner.

Suddenly, she thought of something and turned to look at Old Mister Hart.

Old Mister Hart calmly sipped his tea, while Valencia and Orion sat on their respective sofas, appearing as though they had not heard her.

Avery felt momentarily lost and helpless. ‘Why? Why are Old Mister Hart and Tyler’s parents so cold- hearted when they supposedly valued their descendants the most?’ 1

Vicky observed Avery’s bewilderment with a comprehensive understanding of the situation.

Old Mister Hart and Tyler’s parents had spent their entire lives navigating the treacherous waters of the family, having experienced more than Avery could ever imagine. They had seen all sorts of women and situations, including women attempting to use children as leverage in exchange for status.

Avery, despite her noble birth, was no different from those who tried to manipulate others with a child. The Harts would never allow themselves to be manipulated by such a woman.

If they succumbed to Avery’s threat, she would continue to use the child to manipulate them in the future. Old Mister Hart and Tyler’s parents were well aware of this.

Avery started to panic in response to their lack of reaction and exclaimed angrily, “I’ll terminate this child! I mean it!” 1

“Avery.” Old Mister Hart looked up at her and said, “If you wish to give birth to this child, the Hart family will not

mistreat you. However, if you don’t want to, we won’t force you. After all, you are the child’s mother.”

Avery glared at him with bloodshot eyes. “So what exactly do you mean? Do you want me to bear a child for your family for nothing?”

Old Mister Hart sighed. “You are the child’s mother, and that’s a fact no one can change. Tyler is the head of the Hart family, and after this child is born, he or she will have the right to inherit the Hart family. Naturally, we are willing to provide you with some compensation within our capabilities.
