Chapter 160
Tyler was still looking at Vicky sharply. Vicky did not know what he could see in the dark, but she did
not open her eyes or move, acting as though she was asleep.
She could not tell how long it had been. When she was finally falling asleep, Tyler finally left. At first,
she thought Tyler might not come back.
When she was deep in her sleep, she heard someone opening the door and walking. Shortly, the other
side of the bed sunk a little. Later, she was pulled into a familiar pair of arms.
The smell of the sanitizer floated in the air. The pungent smell was terrible and it disgusted her and
even woke her from her sleep. Her instinct kicked in and she tried to struggle away from the hug.
Tyler paused. Seconds later, his voice rang in the dimmed room, "You're awake?"
"Yeah." Vicky moved over to the other side of the bed and said softly, "The disinfectant smell on your
body is too strong. I'm not very comfortable with it."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter a moment of silence, he said, "I'll go take a shower."
He thus got down from the bed and went to the bathroom. After he finished his shower, and Vicky
having fallen back to sleep, he got onto the bed and pulled Vicky into his arms.
She struggled for a while before she fell back to sleep in his arms.
A silver light pierced the sky. Thunder roared as lightning struck the sky.
The sky rumbled.
Vicky's eyelids flapped open.
A downpour was unleashed, and the rain slammed against the window. Long watermark streaks ran
down the glass as though they were teardrops.
She sat on the bed and looked to the side unconsciously. It was empty, and the side of the bed looked
undisturbed as though no one had slept with her.
She looked at the time. It was half past one in the early morning.
'Tyler.Js not back yet?'
She rubbed her aching glabella and picked up the book-the same one she was reading before she
slept—that dropped to the bed, putting it back on the bedside table.
As the thunder rumbled in the skies, jolting her awake from her slumber, she walked to the window and
gazed into the rain.
The cool, gloomy rainy night was like a deep abyss that no light could penetrate inside. The only light
that appeared in the world was the occasional lighting.
She picked up the phone and took a look.
There was no notification on her screen. No text messages or missed calls.
For a long time, she stood in front of the window and looked outside. Suddenly, she thought of
something and opened the old text messages she received. The last text message she received from
Tyler was at five in the evening.
[Don't wait for me to have your dinner.]
She moved her finger and instantly, all the text messages they sent appeared before her eyes. Those
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwere the most recent text messages they sent to each other. Most of them were messages where he
told her he was not going back for dinner, for her to not wait for him, and him asking her to sleep early.
They were simple and short.
She slides to the later messages before Sheila was injured.
Compared to the shorter, simpler text messages she received recently, those text messages were far
more interesting. She would remind Tyler to eat his meal at the right time. Also, a message that he sent
to tell her the maid had prepared breakfast for her after she slept till late after he had overworked her
the night before.
In fact, they also sent each other boring messages, too.
Vicky curled her lips into a smile while she read those messages. Alas, the smile did not reach her
eyes.
She thought for a while and sent Tyler a text.
[Are you still busy?]
During the time Sheila was hurt, Tyler would come back every night other than the first night.
