Chapter 681
Vicky nodded. "How did you know?" "You love spicy food, and I've never seen you ask for them to exclude parsley
specifically... This takeaway is obviously not for you." Conflicted emotions filled Alex's eyes. "You'd always be on your
phone whenever it's lunchtime for the past two days, asking the doctor if your friend is eating properly, or asking
your friend what he feels like eating."
Unable to suppress it any longer, Alex finally asked the question on his mind for the past two days. "Vicky, this friend
of yours is a man that you're quite close with, right?"
Alex had never been a perceptive man, and the fact that he was asking about it showed just how obvious Vicky's
behavior was.

service I provide, so I can't just leave him there to rot...
Besides, he doesn’t know how to take care of himself, and if I don't keep a close eye on him, he might get sick
again, so I have to pay attention."xo
She paused and added, "The sooner he gets better, the sooner I can get back to my part-time jobs."
Alex did not say anything and simply studied Vicky oddly.
Vicky felt chills from the way Alex looked at her and asked," Alex, why are you looking at me like that?"novëxo
The emotions in his eyes deepened. "Vicky, all I asked was one simple question, so why are you telling me all that?"
Vicky was rendered speechless.
Alex sighed with resignation. "Alright, just go. You don’t have to keep me company tomorrow."
"Are you mad at me, Alex?"
He shook his head. "I know that you're a soft-hearted person, so I won't be mad at you. I just think if you're so
worried about that person, you won’t be able to have fun even if you're here with me. There are priorities to things,
and we can hang out whenever we want. I'll come by again when you're free."
Vicky was touched by his thoughtfulness. "Thank you, Alex."
"Friends don't have to thank each other," replied Alex casually.
After packing the food, the two stepped out of the restaurant.
"I'll send you back," Alex offered.
"Sure."
When the car arrived and stopped in front of the hospital, the two stepped out.

"Alex, would you like to come and see my friend?" Vicky asked.
Alex kept his eyes trained on her. "Maybe next time."
Since Tyler had yet to recover and was not good with socializing, Vicky did not insist on the matter. "Alright. If we
ever have the chance, I'll introduce you guys to each other."
"There will be a chance," Alex said.
Confused, she asked, "Oh? What makes you so sure?"
He took two steps forward and wrapped his arms around her before whispering into her ear bitterly, "Be happy,
Vicky."
Vicky nodded and returned his embrace. "You too, Alex."
Alex let her go and said, "Alright, go up. Your friend needs someone to take care of him."
"Okay. I'll get going now, then."
Vicky turned and headed into the hospital, while Alex stood still to watch as her figure disappeared from her sight.
None of them noticed the handsome man observing them from a balcony on the third floor.
