Chapter 1708
Not only did Tyler know how to take advantage of situations, but he also knew how to talk his way out of everything.
The most exasperating thing for Aurora was that Tyler left her with no room for argument. Aurora decided to ignore him and turned her gaze to chat with Vicky.
Vicky, too, acted as though she had not seen Tyler and chatted away with Aurora.
Their lunch arrived promptly, and the two of them began to eat. However, Tyler did not sit beside Vicky and stood quietly nearby instead.
The restaurant was bustling during lunchtime, and Tyler, with his extraordinary presence, attracted quite a few glances.
Aurora, on the other hand, continued eating her meal as if oblivious to Tyler’s presence.
As long as she did not feel awkward, any awkwardness would be his alone. If he was going to mistreat Vicky, she would let him stand and go hungry.
Aurora intentionally slowed down her eating and even ordered a dessert after the meal, so this meal took more than two hours to finish.
Tyler stood behind Vicky for over two hours. His expression showed no signs of weariness or impatience, and he
maintained his composed demeanor, paying no heed to the curious glances from onlookers.
When a waiter noticed him standing, they asked, “Sir, would you like us to bring you a chair?”
Tyler nonchalantly declined, “No, thank you.”
In truth, no one would be demeaning to the point of denying their bodyguards a meal. If it were a normal situation, both
Aurora and Vicky would have invited him to join them for the meal, but Tyler was a special case.
Aurora’s goal was to tease him. Vicky simply wanted Tyler to give up as she did not want him constantly hovering in front of her.
Unfortunately, Tyler’s mental state was far stronger than they imagined.
Lately, Tyler seemed to have a lot of free time and stayed home most of the time. Whenever Vicky went out, he played the
role of her bodyguard and accompanied her.
On this particular day, Vicky received a call from Jennifer.
“Vicky, Willow got into a rough situation… The client she dealt with is incredibly difficult. Despite multiple attempts to
communicate with her, it was all in vain.”
Jennifer was aware that Vicky was pregnant and tried not to disturb her, but some clients were impossible to handle.
“What happened? Give me the details,” Vicky asked.
“Willow took an order from a wealthy young lady, but when the delivery was made, the young lady wasn’t at home. Her
husband, seeing how young and attractive Willow is, attempted to make advances toward her. When she slapped him in
self-defense, he got angry and threw her into jail. The lady has some influence in Stoneford City, and our lawyer couldn’t
get Willow released. She’s been in there for three days now. When I visited her earlier, I saw that her face was bruised…”
Jennifer felt helpless and had no other choice but to call Vicky. She could not bear to see Willow suffer like this any longer.
Vicky pondered for a few seconds and then asked, “Can we arrange a meeting with the person who put her in jail?”
Jennifer replied in a hushed voice, “The one who sent Willow to jail was that gentleman, but the one responsible for
ordering inmates in jail to bully Willow was the wealthy young lady. She asserted that Willow seduced her husband and won’t listen to reason.”
This was a typical case of an unreasonable, vindictive customer.
