Chapter 1080
The sun hung high up in the sky and the weather gradually got hotter as noontime came.
When Lincoln noticed Vicky’s forehead had become slick with sweat, he said gently, "Vicky, there’s a gazebo over
there. Why don’t we take a rest there?"
Vicky was indeed feeling a little tired, so she nodded in agreement. "Okay."
The path leading to the gazebo was paved with palm-sized pebbles, giving those who walked on them a sense of
unevenness.
Suddenly, Vicky mistakenly stepped on a loose stone, which made her slip. Fortunately, Lincoln managed to catch
her before she fell.
Lincoln looked worriedly at her and asked, "Vicky, are you okay?"
Vicky gave him an embarrassed smile and said, "Yes. Thank you."

"What are you guys doing?"
Vicky turned around and saw a handsome man dressed in a suit standing not far away from them. At that moment,
he was glaring angrily at them as though he had caught his wife
cheating on him.
His lips were drawn in a tight line as he strode over to them. Grabbing Vicky's hand, he then asked, "Did you block
my number and turn off the phone just so you could enjoy your date with Lincoln? And why did you smile at him just
now?"
The feeling of disgust rose up Vicky's throat when she looked into Tyler's cold eyes. She did not want to explain
anything to him, so she just said, "What I do with anybody is my business. It has nothing to do with you."
She did a mental calculation and realized that Tyler had driven straight back here right after she turned off her
phone.
Tyler's tone became even colder to the point of threatening when he said, "I dare you to say that one more time,
Vicky Shaw."
"I can say it a hundred times, but it still doesn't change the fact that whatever I do, or who I do it with, has nothing
to do with you!"
"Vicky, are you trying to cheat on me?"
Vicky laughed at how ridiculous he was being. "Cheat on you? Tyler, we've already divorced. I'm a free woman. That
means I can be with whoever I want and there's nothing you can do about it."
"I won't allow it," said Tyler overbearingly.
Vicky’s expression turned cold. "As if I hadn't heard about the many other things you won't allow me to do. Even if
you're still my husband, you still don't have the right to say
who I can and cannot be friends with."
"Friends?" Tyler's tone became colder. "Do friends hug each other like the way you two were hugging just now?"

not as you thought. There's nothing going on between us."
Tyler threw a mocking glance at Lincoln. "Didn't you call her your girlfriend some time ago? Now you say there's
nothing going on between the two of you? Lincoln, did you think that I won’t know what you're thinking just because
you hid it well?"
Instead of being unhappy, Lincoln came to Vicky's defense." Tyler, you should know better than me why I called her
my girlfriend previously. It was just a stopgap measure to prevent you from forcibly taking her away."
After a sigh, he added, "Even if you don't trust me, you should at least trust Vicky. Could it be that deep down in
your heart, you don't trust her at all? Are you thinking that she must be doing something with someone if she
doesn't pick up your call? Or she must be flirting with a guy if she's talking to him?"
All the things Lincoln said brought out a hint of anger in Vicky. 'Trust? In all the years I've known him, Tyler has never
shown me any trust! Alex, Sebastian, Harvey, and countless other acquaintances got hurt because of me! When will
Tyler ever stop?'
