“How do you know that?” Vicky’s sound suddenly became hoarse.
On the other hand, Tyler’s voice was normal-sounding, unstirred by emotions. “Harry saw them yesterday when he sent someone to the airport.”
Vicky’s hands were sweating. “I just got an order from an overseas customer. Since I can’t leave, I asked Cece to go on my behalf. As Jennifer is ready to join the studio, I asked Cece to bring her so she’d familiarize herself in our field…”
“I see.” His voice was deep and sounded lazy. “You should hire a few more people for the studio to take some burdens off you.”
“Since both of them are out of the country, there will be no one to look after the studio if I leave as well,” remarked
Vicky, trying her best to not show her emotions through her words. “So…”
“I know.” There was no anger nor happiness detected in his tone. “Next time, then.”
Vicky’s eyes twitched so badly, and her anxiety was about to overwhelm her body.
Her clear eyes gazed forward, looking at Tyler. The room was too dark, however, and she could not see anything.
“Are you…mad?” she asked.
“Why are you asking that?” Tyler asked in return.
“Because I’m not following you to work?”
“It’s not a big deal.” His voice was calm. “There’s always next time if you’re busy now.”
“But…” Vicky carefully paced with her words. “I thought you’d hate it when I defy you.”
After a few seconds of silence, Tyler whispered softly into her ear, “I just hate it when you don’t listen to me.”
His voice echoed across the room on a breezy night. “Since you have work to attend to, I’m not going to stop you.”
Before Vicky could tell what he truly meant, he shifted and went on top of her, disrupting her from mulling her thoughts. She blurted, “No. We just…”
“I’m leaving for the business trip tomorrow,” he murmured huskily. “We’re not going to see each other for a couple of days.”
She understood what he was trying to imply. It meant he wanted an…’advance’ from the days he would be away.
It was just like him-a smart, evil, and awful capitalist who refused to take on any type of loss, all while gaining double interest from her.
Tyler left early in the morning the next day whereas Vicky was barely able to wake up after noon. The first thing she did was call Sebastian.
“Hey, Sebastian. Tyler knows Cece and Jennifer are out of the country. Do you think he knows something?” NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Sebastian sounded serious as he replied, “How did he know? N
She quickly told him about what Tyler said to her last night.
After he thought of it for a while, he said, “Don’t panic. I’ll have someone check on if Harry did send someone to the airport yesterday. I’ll call you back later.”
“Alright.”
After Vicky finished her dinner, Sebastian called her again.
“Hey. I had someone checked, and Harry did send a customer to the airport. Coincidentally, Cece and Jennifer arrived at the airport at the same time as Harry did.”
Vicky’s fried nerves finally settled down. “I guess I thought too much of it, then.”
Sebastian continued, “I also checked Tyler’s location. He took the plane and arrived at Auran roughly in the evening. After that, he went straight to sign the contract.” “Did he really fly to Auran to sign a contract?”
