Chapter 371

"Tyler..." Vicky murmured, 'when did you come back?"

Tyler’s voice was clear and melodious like the river as he replied, "This morning."

"I thought you'd be away for more than ten days," Vicky wondered.

"You haven't been sleeping well with nightmares these few days." Tyler looked at her and added, "So I

finished my work ahead of schedule and decided to come back."

If this happened on a usual day, she would be thrilled to hear that. At this moment, however, she was

not ready to face him...yet here he was, home already.

His eyes darkened when he noticed the lack of excitement in her eyes.

"What's wrong? You’re not happy to see me?" he asked.

"No," Vicky answered without thinking twice, "I'm just a little surprised..."

She tried to calm herself. "Why didn't you tell me ahead? I said.J'd go pick you up from the airport."

Tyler stood up and walked to her. "I want to give you a surprise, but...you weren't at home."

Her heart throbbed. "What... What time did you arrive?"

"Six." He stood right in front of her, gazing down at her. No one could tell what he was feeling. "Did

something happen? Why did you go out so early in the morning?"

Vicky did not dare to look into his eyes. "I...I didn't come home last night."

"Huh?" Tyler was puzzled.

She knew she could not keep it a secret from him. All he needed to do was ask Nanny Paterson and

look at the surveillance footage to know the truth.

"Jennifer was discharged from the hospital yesterday, and I..."

That explained every question Tyler wanted to ask. "So you went to accompany Jennifer."

He got closer and embraced her "I shouldn't have gone to work before you recovered." His voice

sounded deep. "I'm sorry you had to be alone these few days."

She inhaled, and the familiar scent entered her nostrils. She was touched by those words as her eyes

became slightly watery. "I'm fine..."

Tyler continued to look at her. There was a rare softness in his blue eyes." I'll try to stay in the city with

you during this period."

Vicky stiffened when she heard this. Tyler probably did not notice she was acting weird.

He furrowed his brow and took off her mask. "Vicky, are you sick?"

Vicky's hands and legs were as cold as ice. She felt terribly nervous every time she had to face the

man with the mask, so much so that she would gnaw on her bottom lip until it stung.

At this moment, she did not know how to explain herself, and it did not help that Tyler stared pointedly

at her lip questioningly. 1

Finally, she succumbed to that look and decided to tell the truth. As she burned her own boat, she said,

"Tyler, the truth is..."

As she was about to spill everything, Tyler cut her off. "What did you eat with Cece and Jennifer?"

The question caught Vicky by surprise. "W-What?"

Tyler squeezed his brows slightly. "Are you having an allergic reaction? Should I get the doctor to come

and take a look?"

Vicky’s shock remained. "A-Allergy?"

Tyler raised his brows at how oddly Vicky sounded. "Is it not an allergic reaction?"

Vicky was lost for words. The courage she built up disappeared.
