Loving You In Secret

Chapter 1304

Chapter 1304

Arriving at the study, Vicky began sorting through clothing sketches.

She had discussed with Jennifer and Cece that she could resume work tomorrow. However, Vicky sat in front of the computer and was lost in her thoughts, which impeded her progress.

After a while, her phone on the desk vibrated gently. She opened the screen, revealing a text message from Harry.

[Missus Hart, Mister Hart is still working and hasn’t eaten anything… He skipped lunch, too.]

Reading the message, Vicky’s grip tightened around her phone. ‘Is he being reckless now that I’m taking care of him anymore?’

She began typing a reply, but the thought that she should not care any longer held her back. In the end, Vicky expressionlessly put down her phone without responding.

Seeing no reply, Harry did not send any more messages afterward.

At 10 p.m., Vicky heard the sound of a car engine approaching.

She looked out of the window and saw Tyler returning.

His work was demanding, especially after staying in the hospital for so long. There must be a lot of pending tasks.

Vicky was concerned about his health, so she asked him not to work more than eight hours a day. In the past, she would be with him every day, strictly managing his schedule. Since she stopped following him around, he reverted to his workaholic nature.

After coming upstairs, instead of heading to their room, Tyler went to the study again. Around midnight, Vicky heard the sound of the neighboring door closing and realized that he had worked until midnight again.

Several days passed without Vicky and Tyler crossing paths.

They were living under the same roof, yet they had not seen each other’s faces. Vicky knew Tyler was avoiding her.

At first, Harry would send her messages, seeking her help to persuade Tyler. However, he eventually stopped after Vicky did not reply.

Days went by, and it was finally Cece’s birthday. She had invited many people to celebrate.

Vicky and Aurora chatted as they entered the private dining room.

As they pushed open the door, a beautiful voice reached their ears. “Vicky, you’re here.”

Vicky looked up and saw a familiar-looking face. “Harvey? You’re here, too?”

Harvey smiled. “I saw Cece’s post on social media this morning, so I shamelessly tagged along.”

Vicky had not seen Harvey for some time, so she hesitated for a moment before inquiring, “Your arm…”

“It’s all healed now.”

“Vicky.” Aurora stood next to Vicky and asked curiously,” Who is this?”

Harvey raised his eyebrow at Aurora and glanced at Vicky curiously. It became clear that Harvey had heard Tyler was planning to be engaged to Aurora before.

“They were just partners in crime,” Vicky explained.

Realization dawned on Harvey, and Vicky turned to Aurora.” Aurora, this is Harvey Sparks. He’s my friend.”

“Harvey Sparks?” Aurora narrowed her eyes and stared at Harvey knowingly.

When she was putting up an act with Tyler, Aurora looked into Vicky’s background and knew that Vicky was once engaged to Harvey.

Neither Aurora nor Harvey made any comment about one another and simply nodded at each other politely before taking their seats.
