Ch. 901..910
Loving You In Secret Chapter 901-Tyler made it clear that he did not want Vicky to suffer injustice.novelxo.com fast update
Orion acted as if he wanted no involvement yet started pretending like he wanted justice at this moment.
Mike knew that he was trying to bring justice but was trying to add fuel to the fire.
If Vicky ended up suffering, Tyler would only blame it all on Mike instead of his parents.
‘Orion and Valencia, this cunning couple, Mike thought.
‘ They’re using their son to deal with me and eliminate opposition”
At this moment, even Old Mister Hart understood what everyone’s motive was.
“Alright, enough quarreling.It’s giving me a headache.” He waved his hand.
“Since Tyler says there’s a reason behind this, let’s retrieve the surveillance footage and see what exactly happened.”
Isabella, who was leaning against her mother’s embrace, turned pale and thought to herself, ‘Surveillance? Are there surveillance cameras around? I don’t recall seeing any cameras when I came inside. If Grandpa is choosing to side with Tyler and Vicky without even knowing what I’ve said, he can’t possibly change his mind if he finds out about all the things I said..”
Isabella dared not think any further.
“Isabella, what’s wrong with you?”
Isabella’s mother noticed that she was trembling and asked with concern, “Is the wound hurting too much?”
Isabella’s mother finally remembered that Isabella had been injured for a while and had not been taken for treatment while they were debating interests.
Old Mister Hart glanced at Isabella and decided, “Take Isabella to get her injuries treated.I’ll send someone to retrieve the surveillance footage.
We’ll discuss everything once Isabella is properly attended to.”
With that, all objections ceased.
At Old Mister Hart’s command, the surveillance footage was quickly retrieved.
During this time, Vicky tried to persuade Tyler to let it go, but it was to no avail.
The situation had already escalated, and without a resolution, it seemed unlikely to end easily.
Isabella’s mother accompanied Isabella for treatment, while Isabella’s father waited in place.
He was curious to see how Tyler would twist Vicky’s misdeeds and portray her as an innocent victim.
The others, on the other hand, simply wanted to know what had happened.
The butler held a laptop and played the retrieved surveillance footage in front of everyone.
“How can someone with your taste think that you can be a fashion designer? Tsk, tsk, tsk! I guess women who are skilled in the art of seduction are different from the rest of us.No matter how hard others work, they can’t surpass your accomplishment by crawling onto men’s beds.Indeed, your skills in that aspect are impressive…I suppose it’s a talent in some way…Or should I say, it’s a profession.”
“Vicky, do you remember when you embarrassed yourself at the banquet years ago and became the object of ridicule? Let me tell you, I still have that video.Once I upload it online, you will become a laughingstock worldwide!”
“Indeed, we’re not family.You and your b*stard husband are the same and both lack manners! Neither of you was taught by your mothers how to act around your superior!”
Isabella’s vicious voice was heard by every single person in the room.
The surveillance cameras used by the Hart Family were the most advanced prototype, so Isabella’s furious expression was reflected distinctively as well.
Silence fell over the room with no sound but her sharp voice.
Old Mister Hart closed his eyes in disappointment, Mike’s expression darkened, while Orion and Valencia seemed frustrated when they heard Isabella mocking Tyler for not being educated well by his mother.
Vicky still felt horrible having heard those remarks once again and looked up worriedly at Tyler, who remained composed without any trace of emotions in his eyes
Loving You In Secret Chapter 902-Sometime after the footage was done playing, no one spoke a word, and all eyes turned to Mike.
Even someone with a good temper would have the urge to smack Isabella after hearing what she said, so it was not surprising that Vicky hit her.
Such foul words were hardly fitting to be uttered by a noble lady and sounded like something that a common, uneducated woman would say.
“Uncle,” a man’s cold and pleasant voice broke the silence.
“Are Isabella’s injuries treated now? Can we ask her to come out and apologize?”
Mike’s breath hitched, and he instinctively responded, “Isabella indeed spoke without restraint, but she has been punished accordingly.She was slapped and was injured because of it…so let’s consider it settled.”
Tyler remained unmoved.
“Uncle, is she coming to apologize voluntarily, or should I send someone to ‘invite’ her down?”
“Tyler, you’re going too far!” Mike exclaimed in anger.
“I didn’t even hold you accountable for insulting my family, and you want my daughter to apologize?”
“That is that.This is a whole different matter.”
Tyler glanced at his wristwatch and said indifferently, “You have five minutes to decide, Uncle.”
Mike was well aware of Tyler’s ruthlessness.
If Tyler dared to harm Lincoln when he had just returned to his family, he would not hesitate to hurt Isabella.
Mike turned his gaze sharply toward Old Mister Hart.
“Old Mister, say something.It’s true that Isabella’s words were thoughtless, but she has also been physically assaulted.And now they want her to apologize…It’s simply out of line! You asked me to put things to rest earlier, and we listened to your words, but Tyler keeps pushing and pressuring us!”
Old Mister Hart frowned, acknowledging that Isabella’s words were indeed harsh, but she had received her punishment.He turned to Tyler.
“Tyler, you see…”
Before Old Mister Hart could finish his sentence, Tyler interrupted him.
“There’s no need for discussion about this.Isabella must apologize today.”
Old Mister Hart’s expression darkened, and he remained silent.
Tyler was a decisive person with a reckless demeanor.
When he made a decision, it could not be easily altered.
Furthermore, he had no sense of belonging to the Hart family and would not cave under anyone’s plead or demand.
Mike was even enraged further that his father did not defend him and shouted, “Tyler, what can you do if Isabella refuses to apologize?!”
A cold sneer curled Tyler’s lips.
“In that case, Uncle, don’t blame me for showing no mercy.”
Before Mike could say anything else, he said, “Guards, go and bring Isabella here.”
A few bodyguards entered the room, and one of them asked, “Mister Hart, what if Miss Hart isn’t willing to come downstairs?”novelxo.com fast update
“It’s up to you to make her, then,” Tyler said.
The bodyguards instantly understood what Tyler meant.
“Yes, sir.”
With that, they stormed upstairs.
“Tyler, you’re here for a family gathering, so why did you bring these people with you?” Mike gaped at Tyler in disbelief.
“You came prepared, didn’t you?”
“Yes, but the preparation I made…wasn’t meant for you, Uncle.” Mike jolted.
“What do you mean?”
Just then, the scream of a woman from the floor above pierced through the air.
“I don’t want to apologize…I will never apologize to Vicky!”
At the same time, Isabella was dragged down the stairs by the bodyguards.
“Ugh! What are you doing?! Unhand me! Let me go! You puny peasants have no right to touch me! One word from me, and my dad and brother will make sure you suffer for this!”
She was then dragged toward the crowd as she screamed.Her mother hurried after her in tears.
“You are on the Harts’ property.How dare you?!”
Everyone simply ignored her
Loving You In Secret Chapter 903-The bodyguards were highly efficient, and within a few minutes, they dragged Isabella out.
“Mister Hart,” the bodyguards addressed Tyler respectfully.
“We’ve brought her here.How do you wish to handle this?” Tyler looked down at Isabella.
“You mentioned kneeling, right? You should do it yourself, then.” Isabella glared at Tyler with bloodshot eyes.
“You wretched b *stard, how dare you make me apologize—ah!”
Before Isabella could finish her sentence, one of the bodyguards delivered a hard slap to her face and spoke coldly, “Show some respect!”
“Dream on!”
Isabella lost her composure.She shouted frantically, “B*stard! He’s a b*stard! Tyler Hart, our family will never acknowledge you—ah!”
Another resounding slap followed, landing heavily on Isabella’s face.
Isabella was knocked to the ground, and her cheek instantly swelled up.
These bodyguards were well-trained and had great strength, so this slap knocked out one of Isabella’s front teeth.
Isabella’s mother almost fainted as she watched.
Mike, too, was enraged by the sight.
“Tyler Hart, if you dare to touch Isabella again, best believe that I’ll shoot you!”
Mike was about to reach for his gun but someone beat him to it, and the handgun he intended to draw ended up in Tyler’s hand instead.
Everyone looked at Tyler in astonishment.
Within the blink of an eye, Tyler had taken Mike’s gun.
“Uncle, how do you plan to shoot me?”
Tyler casually toyed with the gun in his hand.His slender fingers contrasted starkly against the dark, polished surface of the weapon, novelxo.com appearing pale and icy.
Mike’s eyes widened.
“Tyler Hart, why you…”
Old Mister Hart could not remain silent any longer.
“Tyler…”
“You don’t need to worry.I know the rules of the Hart family.”
Tyler interrupted him.
“As long as he doesn’t make a move first, I won’t harm him.”
Having said that, Tyler glanced at the bodyguards, who were all working under Tyler’s command and followed his orders exclusively.
The bodyguard immediately kicked Isabella’s shin.
“Apologize to Mister Hart right away.”
“Don’t apologize to me,” Tyler said.
“Apologize to my wife.”
The bodyguard glanced coldly at Isabella and said, “Did you hear that? Apologize to Missus Hart immediately.”
Isabella had never been treated in such a cruel manner before and turned to Old Mister Hart in tears.
“Grandpa, you need to help me…”
Smack! The bodyguard slapped her once again like a machine that knew nothing but to repeat the same command.
“Miss Hart, please apologize to Missus Hart.”
“I won’t—ah!”
The bodyguard slapped her on the face once again without mercy.
“Apologize to Missus Hart, please.”
Isabella’s mother watched as her daughter was slapped by the bodyguard in front of everyone and wailed.
“Tyler, how dare you do this to my daughter?! I won’t ever forgive you!” She charged toward Tyler, only to be stopped easily by the bodyguards.
“Uncle, keep your wife on a short leash.If the bodyguards accidentally injure her, I won’t take the blame,” Tyler said expressionlessly.
Mike gritted his teeth and struggled to say a single word when he saw the gun in Tyler’s hand.
Vicky stood next to Tyler and watched as the scene unfolded without attempting to stop Tyler.
After all, she knew that Tyler did this for her
Loving You In Secret Chapter 904-After Isabella was slapped over a dozen times, her mother finally fainted, having failed to escape the bodyguards’ restraints.
Without anyone to her rescue and having lost a couple of teeth at this point, Isabella finally came to terms with the reality and caved.
“I will apologize…” She sobbed.
“I will apologize, alright?”
The bodyguard, who was slapping her, finally stopped and stared coldly at her.
Through her tears, the look in Isabella’s eyes remained deviant as she looked at Vicky.
“I’m sorry.”
“Who are you saying that to?” Tyler questioned.
Isabella bit her lower lip and said, “Sorry, Vicky.”
“Sorry about what?” he asked.
“I…I shouldn’t have insulted her…and you…”
“What happened to kneeling?” Tyler continued.Her eyes widened as she lost her temper once again.
“You’re asking for too much, Tyler!”
“You have one minute,” he said.
“Why you…” Orion decided to intervene.
“Tyler, it’s not that big a deal.Why don’t you—”
Tyler narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Orion and Valencia.
The two instantly felt chills down their spine.
“I seem to have forgotten that you two secretly imprisoned Vicky.You haven’t given me a proper explanation yet,” novelxo.com he said coldly.
Valencia and Orion’s faces turned pale.
Valencia’s anger drained the color from her face.
“Tyler, you…What nonsense are you spouting? This matter…We’ve explained this matter already.It has nothing to do with us!”
“You know if you have something to do with it,” Tyler said and glanced at the time.
“Time’s up.”
He looked at Isabella and noticed the hateful and resentful gaze she directed at him.
A faint smirk curved Tyler’s thin lips, and a glimmer of darkness flickered in his eyes.
“Isabella, it seems you haven’t taken my words to heart.”
As soon as his words fell, there was a loud bang.
Everyone was stunned by the sudden and tremendous noise.
Even Vicky was startled and jumped back.
The pitch-black handgun in Tyler’s hand was oozing white smoke from its barrel.
Isabella let out a miserable scream.Her legs gave way, and she fell to the ground, crawling on all fours.
Blood seeped from her knees, staining the ground red.
“Tyler, why you…”
Old Mister Hart never expected Tyler to fire the gun.
Unable to catch his breath, he fainted.
“The old man isn’t feeling well.Send him to rest first,” Tyler spoke indifferently.
Instantly, a few bodyguards approached and escorted Old Mister Hart away.
Witnessing this scene, the crowd could not help but take a few steps back.
They were about to leave when they realized that the entire hall had been surrounded by a group of guards that appeared out of nowhere.
Fear etched on their faces, and they immediately started shouting frantically.
“Tyler, what…What do you intend to do?!”
“Are you planning to kill all of us?!”
“Tyler, don’t go too far.Today’s incident has nothing to do with us!”
These people knew firsthand just how ruthless and heartless Tyler could be
Loving You In Secret Chapter 905-Many members of the family were present when Tyler was initially punished for harming Lincoln.
Still, he dared to shoot Isabella, who was an important member of the family, so the others instantly knew that Tyler would not be hesitant to attack them.
“Tyler Hart!”
Mike was both furious and terrified for his daughter.
“H—How dare you?!” Tyler glanced at him.
“What are you trying to say, Uncle?”
Mike’s lips trembled as he stared at the gun in Tyler’s hand, unable to utter another word.
Tyler was about to say something else when he felt a tug on his sleeve.He lowered his gaze and found himself staring at the anxious look in Vicky’s eyes.
The look in Tyler’s eyes darkened.
“Don’t worry.” He tightened his hand on Vicky’s.
“I will make this right for you.” Vicky felt both touched and anxious.
“This is more than enough.”
“No, it’s not.”
Tyler turned his gaze at Orion and Valencia.
“They’re my parents, not yours.You don’t have to put up with them.”
Vicky felt a lump in her throat.
It was never a concern for a woman to be in conflict with her in-laws, but it was the worst fear if her husband was not on her side.
Both Orion and Valencia were stunned by Tyler’s glare and backed away instinctively.
They finally understood that Tyler brought Vicky to the banquet with a purpose in mind, and it was obvious that he came for them.
Isabella simply happened to get in the way, and Tyler took the opportunity to teach her a lesson as well.
With Old Mister Hart unconscious, there was no one to monitor the situation, and it was entirely up to Tyler to call the shots.
Since they were in Zendonia, they could not possibly win against Tyler if they opposed him.
Valencia tearfully pleaded, “Tyler, what are you planning to do? Are you willing to wage war against your parents over a misunderstanding? Do you want to commit patricide and matricide?!”
Valencia’s accusation was severe.
Everyone turned to look at Tyler.
Although they feared him to some extent, their perception of him changed after what Valencia said.
Anyone capable of harming their biological parents was no better than a beast.
Vicky felt sorry for Tyler.She could not see an ounce of love and affection from Valencia and Orion toward Tyler; it was all about manipulation and exploitation.
They were pre-emptively using family ties to incite the emotions of others and tarnish his reputation, actively preventing Tyler from finding himself in any position of power in the family.She instantly noticed that they were slowly stripping Tyler of his right to inherit his family’s wealth, as no one would accept an heir whose morality was in question.
Orion continued to pressure Tyler.
“Tyler, we’ve already explained last time.We truly don’t know what happened.You sent people to thoroughly search our house, and we let you. You then forcibly broke into our house some days later and continued the search…”
Orion was attempting to slip more information onto his audience.
Filial piety had been a traditional virtue handed down through the ages, so Tyler’s lack of respect for his parents and intrusion into his parent’s house was considered outrageous.
Faced with the accusatory gazes of the crowd, novelxo.com Vicky felt uneasy and gently pressed Tyler’s hand, hoping to persuade him to let it go.
Tyler could punish Isabella, but for Valencia and Orion, it would be challenging for Tyler to do much to them apart from demanding their apologies, even if they were at fault.
Vicky did not want Tyler to be subjected to public scorn over a mere apology.
Tyler glanced at her and gave her a reassuring look.
“You may not know what happened, but Vicky was indeed found in your cellar.If I had arrived even a day later, my wife could’ve been in mortal danger.”
Valencia was about to offer a rebuttal, but Tyler cut her off.
“I refuse to believe that any servant would have the audacity to detain my woman without authorization, Even if they had done so, you two are still responsible for your incompetence in managing your employees.
Loving You In Secret Chapter 906-“So…”
Tyler’s cold gaze fell upon the two of them as he slowly parted his thin lips.
“Are you prepared to apologize, or…would you prefer experiencing what Vicky went through and get locked up for a few days?” Orion pointed at Tyler in anger.
“Tyler, you wouldn’t dare!”
“You can try me.”
Orion’s finger trembled, and his chest heaved rapidly.He wanted to say that they would never apologize, but he could not bring himself to do so with all the bodyguards surrounding him.
Tyler never bluffed and always followed through with his words.
At that moment, Valencia, who was beside them, seemed to have reached her limits and fainted.
“It seems Mother’s old ailment has flared up again.” Tyler glanced at Valencia indifferently.
“Doctor, come and see her.Make sure she wakes up as soon as possible.”
Orion’s face twitched.
They were currently in a difficult situation.
Tyler would lock them up in the cellar if they refused to apologize, but if they did, they would look like fools.
Both Valencia and Orion were cunning people and had ample experience in dealing with such situations.
Hence, Valencia feigned unconsciousness to evade the impending choice.
Alas, they had not expected Tyler to go as far as to have a doctor around.It was clear that he did not intend on leaving them any way out.
Upon hearing the instruction, the doctor squeezed through the crowd and began treating Valencia.
Since Valencia was only pretending to be unconscious, she woke up quietly within a few minutes.
The others silently watched this scene.
Although they were dissatisfied with Tyler’s actions,novelxo.com no one was foolish enough to speak up at this point.
It reached such a stage where continuing the pretense would be meaningless, and Tyler was not giving them the chance to do so.
Orion and Valencia naturally did not wish to be locked up in the cellar by Tyler, so they could only swallow their pride and apologize to Vicky under the watchful eyes of everyone.
“Vicky, we’re truly sorry for what happened last time…”
Orion forced a smile and added, “From now on, we’ll discipline the servants strictly from now on and ensure that you never suffer any injustice again.”
For Orion and Valencia, this was the best apology they could make, and they were prepared to enrage Tyler if he demanded anything more.
Vicky also did not want to deepen the conflict, so she nodded.
“Let’s put an end to this matter.”
Loving You In Secret Chapter 907-Orion and Valencia glanced at Tyler darkly before leaving as well.
Tyler ignored them all, and once everyone was gone, he strolled toward Isabella.
Mike tensed.
“Tyler Hart, what are you doing?!”
Isabella lay sprawled across the floor, her consciousness drifting as blood pooled next to her knees.
Without Tyler’s command, no one dared to treat Isabella.
With the gun in Tyler’s hand, even Mike held still, knowing that Tyler could very well shoot him as well with his own gun.
Tyler lowered his gaze at Isabella.
“Isabella, do you admit your mistakes now?” She struggled to lift her head and stared at the devilish man before her in terror.
“I was…I was wrong…I apologize…to Ms.Shaw.I’m sorry, Ms.Sh—no, Missus Hart.I’m sorry.I will kneel before you…”
The smugness and pride in her eyes earlier had faded without a trace as she was utterly stunned by Tyler’s ruthlessness.However, she was shot and could not get up no matter how hard she tried.
Tyler looked at her indifferently.
“You mentioned in the surveillance video that you have a video of Vicky.What video is that?” Vicky clenched her fists.
Revealing the truth would undoubtedly remind Tyler of their past, novelxo.com and she did not want him to know about that period when she was paraded by Valencia like a clown.
Having lost too much blood, Isabella’s vision started to blur.
Her lips moved, but before she could speak, her eyelids fluttered, and she fainted completely.
Tyler furrowed his brow, and Vicky whispered, “Let’s take her to the hospital first.If we delay any longer, her life may be in danger.”
If someone died, the situation would escalate.
After a few seconds of silence, Tyler nodded gently.
After putting an end to the commotion, the two of them returned home in the middle of the night.
Tyler was evidently concerned about what he had heard from the surveillance.
In a low voice, he asked, “What did Isabella mean by what she said?”
Vicky’s gaze flickered.
“It seems to be about…the video of me falling into the water during the banquet, which got leaked.I don’t know how she got hold of it.”
“Are you sure?” Vicky nodded.
“…Yes.”
Tyler narrowed his eyes.
“The way she spoke to you…it doesn’t seem like it’s the first time she’s seen you.”
“It seems like she has a good relationship with Miss Everly.Maybe she heard about me from her?”
Not long ago, Isabella did mention something about Aria, and Tyler heard it when he reviewed the surveillance footage.
Seemingly believing Vicky’s explanation, Tyler shifted his gaze away and stopped pressing further.
“It’s getting late.Let’s go take a shower.”
Vicky did not move and stood in place as she stared at him with concern.
“Are you sure everything is okay after what happened today?”
Vicky understood that Tyler stood up for her during the family banquet because he wanted everyone to know that she was his wife and not someone to be bullied.
Undeniably, Vicky felt happy and touched.However, amid the emotions, she could not help but feel concerned as well.
“It’s alright.” Tyler gently pulled Vicky into his embrace.
“With me here, no one will dare to bully you.
Loving You In Secret Chapter 908-Vicky held him back.
“But, Old Mister Hart and your parents…
“Don’t worry about them.” Tyler narrowed his eyes coldly.
“Their actions will only escalate if we don’t show them what it means to mess with us.Only pain can truly teach a lesson.That’s human nature.” He lowered his head to meet her eyes.
“They’ll never dare to pick on you ever again.”
Vicky wanted to tell him that he did not need to do that for her but felt hypocritical for saying so.
“Thank you.” She buried her head into his embrace.
“Thank you, Tyler.”
“Don’t thank me.You were only in these troubles because of me.”
He caressed her hair and continued in a gentle tone, “I’m just doing what I should do.”
She wrapped her arms around his neck abruptly and tip-toed to kiss him.He was stunned for a split moment but soon snapped out of it and took over control.
The following days were peaceful and serene.
Gloria had left, and Aria had not reappeared.
Even the Hart family had quieted down.
Vicky and Tyler spent a period of warm and joyful days together.
Soon, Tyler’s birthday came around, and they did not throw a banquet but opted for an intimate celebration between the two of them this time.
Vicky had been preparing for Tyler’s birthday for a long time, even picking up the piano she had not played in ages.
She practiced for a whole month, and on Tyler’s birthday, she played the piece ‘The Moonlight Bay’ for him once again. That day, Vicky was excited and indulged in quite a few drinks. Under the influence of alcohol, she uttered the words ‘I love you’. However, to her disappointment, Tyler only kissed her and did not say a word in response.
This disappointment did not linger for long, as Vicky understood Tyler’s reserved nature and knew he seldom expressed his love for her directly.
He did say those words to her once when had imprisoned her shortly after their breakup, but their relationship at the time was strained, and his emotions were unstable.
In one moment, novelxo.com he would force himself on her due to her provocation, and in the next moment, he would turn around and say he loved her.
Such a confession of love, under those circumstances, was hardly something anyone could accept, and Vicky was no exception.
At the time, she had no room to savor his declaration; all she wanted was to escape.
On Tyler’s birthday, they spent a romantic and sweet night together.
Before falling asleep that same night, Vicky suddenly realized that this tranquil and blissful time was as good as life could get.
The next day, Vicky woke up with a smile on her lips.
It felt like she was living in a dream, overwhelmed by happiness.
After freshening up, she picked up her phone, ready to go downstairs for breakfast.
As she unlocked her phone, she noticed an unread message on the screen.
Vicky’s finger moved across the screen to open the message, and she froze when she saw the identification of the sender.
As she read the content of the message, her expression gradually darkened.
Burdened with thoughts, Vicky descended the stairs and was about to enter the dining room when she coincidentally spotted a tall and elegant figure emerging from the kitchen.
“Awake already?”
Tyler’s deep and pleasant voice sounded.
“Come, let’s have breakfast.
Loving You In Secret Chapter 909-Vicky looked at the plates in his hands.
“Don’t you have work today?”
“Mm.”
Tyler placed the lukewarm oatmeal on the table.
“I’m not too busy today, so it’s fine to go a bit later.”
Lately, whenever Tyler had free time, he would cook breakfast for her.
The gloom in Vicky’s heart dissipated somewhat, and she smiled.
“Then I must eat more today.” Tyler sat across from Vicky.
“I have an appointment tonight, so you don’t have to wait for me to have dinner.”
With the conversation concluded, the two of them ate breakfast in silence, as usual.
Although Vicky had said she would eat more, she did not manage to fulfill her words due to her preoccupations.
Tyler gazed at Vicky and suddenly spoke up.
“What’s wrong? You don’t like your food?” Vicky snapped out of her thoughts.
“No, it’s delicious.”
“You’ve been lost in thought today.”
Vicky did not know if she had been too obvious or if Tyler was just perceptive.She lowered her gaze.
“I was contemplating whether I should hire more designers for my studio to work on men’s clothing.” Tyler’s tone was indifferent.
“Your clients are usually individual customers, right?”
Confused, she asked, “Yes.What about it?”
“Working with individual customers takes too much time.Have you considered targeting a larger group of clients?”novelxo.com fast update
“I have considered it and tried, but…in our industry, it’s good enough to have individual customers. The bigger ones, like film crews or companies, are monopolized by insiders,” she said in resignation and shook her head.
“So for now, I can only work with individual customers.”
Through the accumulation of hard work over time, Vicky’s studio gained a good reputation within the industry and did not lack orders.It was an accomplishment achieved by the supreme quality of their work, but they could not rival designers who design for a large group of people at once.
Tyler stared at her and asked, “Do you want to do group orders?”
Vicky twitched, understanding the implied meaning behind his words.
Without thinking, she rejected him.
Loving You In Secret Chapter 910-As soon as she entered the studio, Cece teased, “Vicky, are you and Mister Hart back to the honeymoon phase lately? I saw him dropping you off from upstairs.”
Vicky smiled wordlessly.
Cece instantly sensed that Vicky looked bothered and whispered, “Vicky, what’s wrong? Did you fight with him?”
“No.”
Vicky snapped out of it.
“I’m just thinking about some designs.I’ll get to work now.Just order me whatever you get for lunch and bring it back to me later.”
Cece nodded and watched as Vicky walked away in shock.
Once Vicky was back in her office, she sat on her chair blankly for a while before pulling her phone out.
The text she received earlier was from the mysterious man.
[ Vicky, I need you to do something for me.]
[What is it?] she replied.
[I need you to make a copy of a certain document on Tyler Hart’s laptop.]
[Why do you need it?]
[It’s best that you don’t know.]
[But how am I supposed to help you if I don’t know what you want?]
[Vicky, there’s no such thing as free lunch.I’ve helped you countless times before, and now, it’s time for you to return the favor.Don’t tell me that you’re in love with Tyler.] Vicky stopped replying after that.
When the mysterious man suggested that she marry Tyler, Vicky objected to it strongly once.She did not understand what the mysterious man wanted at the time, but at this moment, she finally had a moment of clarity.
The mysterious man had been plotting all along for a prolonged period, and at this moment, it was finally time for him to reap what he sewed.
Vicky knew that there were some things one could not escape from.novelxo.com fast update
After pondering for a long time, Vicky finally sent a message in response.
[I can help you, but I want to meet you in person first.]
Half an hour later, the mysterious man finally replied.
[Okay.] Vicky looked at the message and once again fell into a deep reverie.
Tyler had an appointment later that night and would not be home for dinner, so meeting the mysterious man later on seemed like the best option.
Vicky wanted to know the identity of the person who had been helping her, so she sent him the time and location to meet.
A few minutes later, the response came with a simple affirmation.
At half past six in the evening, Vicky arrived punctually at the entrance of a certain club.
It was one of the most exclusive and private clubs in Stoneford City, accessible only to members.
After asking around, Vicky finally managed to borrow a membership card from Noah.
Vicky had booked a room in advance, but instead of waiting inside, she booked another room close to the elevator and stood by the door, observing the passersby through the peephole.
Without knowing who the mysterious person was, Vicky naturally would not meet with him without any reservations.
Though Vicky had always been curious about this person, she never thought of meeting him until he made the request.
It was precisely after receiving the text that Vicky felt it was necessary to meet with him directly.
Vicky arrived at the club an hour early.
The floor was quiet, and the waitstaff rarely moved.
At this hour, only one person entered or exited this floor, and it was a young woman who left the room opposite Vicky’s.
Time passed minute by minute, and the agreed time drew closer.
Vicky’s heart followed suit, racing with anticipation.
However, the corridor remained empty, devoid of anyone’s presence.
Nobody appeared.
Vicky’s eyebrows gradually furrowed, and she thought to herself, ‘Is he not coming?’ After waiting for another 10 minutes with no sign of the person’s appearance, Vicky finally could not hold back and sent him a message
