Vicky relaxed and asked gently, “Are you coming home for dinner tonight?”

“I’m free tonight.”

Vicky unfastened her seatbelt and kissed Tyler’s cheek. ‘Til be waiting for you at home, then.”

Tyler hummed in response.

Once she got out of the car, Vicky stood as she watched Tyler’s car drive off. She remained still for a few more moments before turning to step into a restaurant to order food.

The new studio Tyler bought for her was located at the center of the city with great views and transportation everywhere.

Vicky packed the food she ordered and walked back to her studio.

When she knocked on the door to the lounge, a melodious voice responded, “Come in.”

She went inside and asked, “How are you feeling today? Are your wounds still hurting?”

“I’m fine now.”

Despite trying to appear nonchalant, Harvey’s slightly weakened voice and his pale face betrayed his true condition.

The environment in Vicky’s studio was certainly not on par with a hospital. Even though Ted had prepared a good amount of medication, the lack of medical equipment for auxiliary treatment meant Harvey was not receiving sufficient care.

Vicky placed the packed breakfast on the table. “You should stick to light food for now. I bought you some soup.”

“Thank you.”

Vicky brought out the breakfast from the bag. “Start with something.”

“Alright,” said Harvey, raising his hand to take the soup from Vicky’s hands.

The two bullets had hit his shoulders, making even the simplest motion challenging.

Seeing a layer of cold sweat forming on his forehead and the way his face paled, Vicky hesitated for a few seconds before suggesting, “Let me feed you.”

There was a slight flicker in Harvey’s deep gaze.

“I spoke with Tyler yesterday… He’s agreed to spare you,” said Vicky, holding a spoon to Harvey’s lips. “After you finish eating, you can contact your subordinates to pick you up.”

Harvey seemed somewhat surprised. “Tyler agreed to that?”

“Yes.”

“I know him. He doesn’t change his mind so easily,” Harvey said weakly. “Did you make a deal with him?”

Vicky paused for a moment. After a brief silence, she confessed, “I promised him that I won’t meet or contact you from now on.”

The air grew still, and neither of them spoke.

Harvey had lost a considerable amount of blood and had not received a timely blood transfusion, leaving him extremely weak. Consuming his breakfast seemed to have exhausted all the strength he had left.

“Rest for a while. Once you’re feeling better, you can call your subordinates,” she said.

Harvey was indeed reaching his limits and nodded. “Thank you.”

After waking up from a nap hours later, Harvey opened his eyes and found Vicky placing food she bought on the table.

Surprised to see him awake, Vicky said, “Awake already?”

“Yeah.” Harvey looked toward the window and noticed the overcast sky, rain seemingly drizzling outside. “What time is it?”

“It’s one in the afternoon,” Vicky replied. “Let’s have lunch.”

“Alright.”

Vicky continued to feed Harvey his lunch. After a morning’s rest, his spirits had somewhat improved.
