Chapter 1104

“Listen to me first.” Lincoln’s voice was tranquilizing. “I understand that you don’t want me to be

wronged, but letting this go is our only choice.”

“Lincoln, are you saying this because you don’t want me to go after Vicky?”

“That’s not it,” Lincoln said calmly. “Mom, have you forgotten where we are?”

“We’re at our home, of cour-” she blurted out, only to pause, realizing that they were in Zendonia.

Lincoln knew that Valencia realized their situation. He smiled faintly and said, “This is Zendonia. Even if

you go to Tyler, what can you do? You know his temper. He’ll never apologize. If you provoke him, do

you know what the consequences will be?”

Valencia’s face paled slightly at Lincoln’s words.

Although Tyler had acknowledged his lineage, due to his rebellious and wilful nature, Valencia’s

impression of him had deteriorated overtime. Her feelings toward Tyler shifted from feeling guilty and

indebted initially to sheer resentment.

She never regarded Tyler as her biological son, and Tyler did not show her the respect of a biological

mother either.

Therefore, Tyler had no concerns for her or Orion whatsoever.

Furthermore, Valencia knew that Tyler was a lunatic who could kill Lincoln on impulse when provoked;

there might even be a chance that Tyler was waiting for someone to present such an opportunity to

him.

“Is letting this go our only course of action now?” Valencia asked reluctantly.

“I only sustained minor injuries,” replied Lincoln nonchalantly, appearing as if he did not care. “With

some rest, I’ll recover. You don’t have to worry.”

“But Tyler hasn’t even come to see you once! Is this disobedient child truly my biological son?!”

Valencia complained.

Just as Valencia was about to continue her grievances, her phone suddenly rang. Despite being angry,

she answered the call without checking who it was. “Who is it? Speak if you have something to say,”

she said impatiently.

After a few seconds of silence, a woman’s clear and melodious voice came through the phone. “Aunt,

it’s me, Avery.”

“Avery?” Valencia was momentarily stunned but quickly realized who it was. “What’s the matter?”

“I just landed and am on my way to the Harts’ mansion,” Avery replied. “I heard about Lincoln’s injury,

so I’m planning to visit him.”

Valencia instinctively refused, “Lincoln is fine. Don’t trouble yourself.”

Valencia was about to say that their engagement had already been terminated when Avery continued,

“Aunt, Lincoln is my fiance. It’s only natural for me to visit him. It’s not an inconvenience.”

Valencia’s expression darkened slightly. “Miss Yeager, your engagement with Lincoln has already been

terminated…”

Before Valencia could finish her sentence, Avery interrupted with a smile in her voice.

“Aunt, an engagement isn’t the same as a breakup. It can’t be terminated just by one side. I understand

that you have some sort of misunderstanding about me because of the scandals involving me. The

main purpose of my visit this time is to explain everything. Besides, if you truly wish to terminate this

engagement, you should at least meet me in person so we can have a clear conversation instead of

ending the engagement by yourself, don’t you think?”

Avery’s words left Valencia speechless.

Avery continued, “I heard that Lincoln wants to terminate the engagement because he has a new

girlfriend… If he truly doesn’t like me anymore, I won’t force him. However, before that happens, I want

Lincoln to personally discuss this matter with me.”

With things having come to this point, Valencia could not find any words to refuse. After hanging up the

phone, Valencia recounted the conversation to Lincoln. “Lincoln, Avery somehow got wind of the news

and came all the way to Zendonia, claiming that she wants to talk to you. I guess she wants to hang

onto you and insist on getting engaged with you.”

Ever since the news of Avery partying with other men at a bar broke out, Valencia had been extremely

displeased with her as she felt that Avery was not worthy of being with Lincoln. Since then, Valencia

had wanted to end the engagement.

However, she faced strong opposition from Avery, who claimed that she had not been involved with

other men and had been framed.
