Chapter 790
Vicky had frequented Tyler’s study in the past, but at the moment, she hesitated as she stood outside the door.
Though they were married, it would be rude to pry on another person’s privacy.
The last time she went through his study, Tyler found out and insulted her harshly over it.
Not long later, Vicky recalled how Tyler chatted with her friends with her phone and deleted people from her contact lists, and the last bit of hesitation faded.
She did not want to pry, but she did not want to remain a clueless fool either.
She walked over to the desk and flipped through the documents on the desk.
Since they were all contracts and documents related to work, she was not interested and placed them back right away.
She then proceeded to open the drawers to find confidential documents as well.
After searching for over half an hour, Vicky found nothing and was about to leave when she noticed the bookshelf behind the desk.
There were all sorts of books related to finance and foreign languages on the shelf.
As she scanned the bookshelf, she noticed some sheet music at the bottom left corner of the bookshelf.
She had been to Tyler’s study countless times and knew what books he had on the shelf. However, the left bottom corner of the bookshelf had been covered by the desk, so she never paid attention to the area.
She narrowed her eyes and crouched to find sheet music and books about the piano.
Vicky took them out and scanned them when a piece of paper flew out.
She paused and picked it up, only for her breath to halt at the sight.
It was a portrait of a handsome man; his eyes brooding and his pursed lips gave him a cold, distant edge.
It was a portrait of her husband, Tyler. ninjanovel.com
The man in the drawing looked younger, and his gaze was not as unpredictable as it was in the present.
Vicky stared at the portrait and felt a tender pain in her chest as pieces of her memories flashed through her mind.
“I can let you draw a portrait of me, but you need to give it to me when you are done.”
“Not bad.”
“Where’s the portrait you drew of me?”
“Vicky, when are you going to draw me again?”
“You are not to draw anyone else apart from me.”
“Vicky, you promised that you will never part from me…”
“Vicky…”
“Vicky…”
Voices overlapped like a relentless spell that echoed inside her head.
She pressed her hands against her head and started sweating.
Sometime later, the voices faded, and the portrait had been crinkled in her hand.
She panted heavily as tears scrolled down her face.
Vicky took a few deep breaths to calm herself before wiping her tears away and putting the portrait back where it was found.
The bookshelf was enormous, and after taking the books and sheet music out, Vicky spotted a few more items hidden inside.
She picked up a small booklet on the very top and widened her eyes as soon as she opened it.
On the very first page was a photo of her and Tyler.
