Chapter 1383
"You could've just called me over when you finished making the tea. You didn't need to bring it over," said Tyler as
he took an empty teacup, filled it from the teapot, and poured himself a cup. The way he elegantly moved was a
truly pleasing sight.
"As it happens, I'm a bit thirsty," he said, his voice clear as he finished the cup of tea in one gulp. He then made an
internal call and instructed his secretary, "Come in and clean the office."
The secretary swiftly came in and tidied the broken fragments from the floor.
Not long after the secretary left, Tyler received a call. In about a minute, he said, ‘I'll be right over."
Hanging up, Tyler turned to Vicky, saying, "I need to step out for a moment. I'll be back soon."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVicky nodded. "Alright."
Once Tyler left, Vicky started to feel bored as she sat alone in the office. It was then her gaze landed on the stack of
documents on Tyler's desk.
When Harry entered earlier, he mentioned a plan for acquiring Johnson Corporation. Harvey's company was the
only one she could associate with that name.
After a few seconds of hesitation, she walked over to the desk and absentmindedly opened the documents to
glance through them.
Her eyes widened as it was indeed a plan for acquiring Johnson Corporation.
Although Vicky was not well-versed in business matters, frequent office visits with Tyler and her involvement in
various meetings gave her a brief understanding of certain matters.
This was not a regular business proposal. Instead, it was a series of plans intended to maliciously suppress Johnson
Corporation. Should Johnson Corporation's stock market dropped, the plan was to heavily acquire Johnson
Corporation's shares and then sell them at the lowest price, causing panic and accelerating the decline in Johnson
Corporation's stock value.
Vicky's blood ran cold. 'Has Tyler planned to target Johnson Corporation from the start, or is this a spur-of-the-
moment decision because of me? If he's doing this because I've been close with Harvey lately, he's wrong about
Harvey. Harvey has only been helping me with Tyler's treatment, yet this is the trouble I've caused him.'
The door was abruptly pushed open as the door creaked.
Startled, Vicky hastily returned the documents to their place and settled back on the couch.
Tyler entered the room and frowned upon seeing the odd look on Vicky's face. "What's that look on your face?" He
walked over to touch her forehead. "Are you feeling sick?"
"No." She avoided his gaze. "I was just thinking about Jennifer and Anthony..."

"Don't worry. They can't do anything to Jennifer here in Stoneford City," he reassured.
Her lashes fluttered as she added, "Jennifer said that it won't be easy for Anthony to disappear for a year or two to
accept treatment even if she tells his parents about it. On top of that... Anthony has severed all ties with his family."
She paused. "I heard that he did so for Lily's sake. Our guess is that she manipulated him into doing so to avoid
things getting out of her control."
Tyler sat next to her and said, "If she is alert, that means that the hypnosis is no longer as effective."
Vicky was stunned and snapped her head around to look at him. "Are you saying that..."
"The fact that Jennifer caught Anthony getting hypnotized means that Anthony is slipping out of Lily's control, and
she finds herself needing to hypnotize him more frequently."
