The man was not offended by her words and remained composed.” Despite what you’ve said, it looks like you’re quite upset with me, Miss Shaw.” He stared at her coldly. “If you’re that reluctant to see me again, let’s put an end to this. You can have the rest of the week to yourself.”
With that, the man turned to leave without hesitation.
Vicky was stunned for a few moments before sobering.
She had been emotional and dazed since she heard that Tyler was getting married and did not snap out of it until this moment.
‘Tyler is getting married, and he isn’t coming to save me. If I give up on myself…1’11 have to remain in this hell for the rest of my life!’ she thought to herself.
“I didn’t mean that.” She got up and hurried over to the man. “I’m sorry, sir. I am a little upset today and ran my mouth because of that… Please forget about what I said. I apologize… I’m sorry.”
She took a deep breath and took a deep bow at the man, which was stopped halfway by him.
“This kind of apology doesn’t mean anything to me,’ the man drawled. “I prefer to have something more valuable in return.”
Vicky glanced at the buttons on the man’s shirt.
She had not even had the chance to see his arm and only caught a few glimpses of his hand. Though he would turn on the light every time he came, the light was so faint that they could barely see one another.
‘Is he hiding a tattoo of a family sigil or something?’ she thought in confusion.
After a few moments of silence, she ignored the hidden message of the man’s words and whispered, ’Sir, I’m good at massage. Would you like to give it a try?’
Silence loomed over them and the man’s voice pieced through the darkness. “Vicky, is there something that you need my help with again?”
She stiffened.
“If you don’t need any help, let’s just go to sleep.”
Seeing that he was about to go to sleep, she blurted out, “I do need your help on something?”
The man paused. “Yeah?”
“Can you let me…call Tyler myself?” She muttered.
The man fell into silence for a long while after that.
It was not a challenging request to the man, and Vicky thought that he would agree to it right away. When the man did not respond, she started to panic.
“Do you not believe me?” the man asked.
“That’s not it.’
The man chuckled darkly. ’So, does it mean that you’re still in love with him?”
Vicky did not respond.
She had been suspicious as to whether the man had actually called Tyler before overhearing the conversation between Jane and Lydia, but all her doubts vanished afterward.
