The photographer was intimidated by Tyler's presence and ran off without bothering to take his camera.Before Vicky could figure out what was happening, she saw the photographer running away like he had seen a ghost.'What's going on?' she thought."Vicky." Tyler lowered his gaze to her and swallowed. "I regret this.""What?""I should've hidden you away from everyone," he said in a tense tone.Vicky frowned, a strange feeling creeping up within her. "What's wrong with you, Tyler?"The man lowered his head and gazed at her intently. Vicky felt uncomfortable and even a hint of fear from being stared at in such an eerie manner.Perhaps it was her imagination, but she seemed to catch a fleeting glimpse of obsession in his eyes. "Tyler..." she muttered."You're so beautiful," Tyler embraced her, his gaze softening. "I was angry when that photographer stared at you."Vicky breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's get another female photographer, then.""Okay."After more than 10 minute
Vicky's eyes flickered slightly as she looked toward Tyler, who was on the phone in the distance.His side profile was flawless, like a sculpted and profound masterpiece. Every move he made exuded a noble aura. Even while standing in the corner, he attracted the attention of many young female staff members who blushed and looked at him with admiration.Soon, Tyler ended the call and turned to look at Vicky. Realizing that she was looking at him, he flashed her a faint smile and walked toward her.The female photographer noticed their interaction and smiled. "I've seen many loving couples, but I've never seen someone as affectionate as Mister Hart. Missus Hart, don't worry too much and simply cherish his love for you."Vicky raised an eyebrow and looked at the photographer with newfound respect. "You have keen eyes." "The reason I became a wedding photographer was to witness the happiness of the bride and groom." The photographer sighed softly. "But after working in this field, I
Vicky had not seen them for a long time, so when she knew that they were coming back, she felt a surge of excitement. "Great! I'll pick you up at the airport tomorrow."Just as she hung up the phone, Tyler came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. He raised an eyebrow at her joyful expression and asked, "What's got you so happy?""Cece and Jennifer are coming back tomorrow!" Vicky chirped and looked up at Tyler. "You don't seem to have any appointments tomorrow afternoon..."Tension rose in the air as her words fell. Unaware of the change, she continued, "I'll probably leave early. I'm planning to have dinner with them outside, so you don't need to wait for me."The look in Tyler's eyes darkened as he watched her, but Vicky remained immersed in her joy and did not notice it. "Once they're back, the studio should get back on track... I need to prepare myself and get back to work," Vicky added. "You should go to sleep. I'll head to the study to organize some design drafts."Ob
Vicky stared at her phone and sighed defeatedly. When she looked up, she saw Jennifer and Cece staring at her oddly.She frowned and asked, "What's wrong?""Vicky, have you and Mister Hart made up?" Cece asked curiously.Vicky's gaze flickered. "No."Cece studied Vicky's expression and whispered, "But you two sounded otherwise."Vicky picked up her glass and took a sip of water. "He lost his memories, so our relationship isn't as horrible as it was before."Cece and Jennifer exchanged knowing glances."Vicky, now that Mister Hart has lost his memory, have you thought about starting over with him?" Jennifer asked.Vicky fell silent for a moment before gently shaking her head. "Too much has happened. Once he remembers everything, it'll still be difficult for us to be together.""But he's forgotten everything now, right? Vicky, haven't you considered building a new connection with Mister Hart while he's still a blank sheet?" Cece interjected."He'll remember everything sooner or
"Missus Hart, where are you now?" came Harry's anxious voice."I'm out having dinner with friends...""While I was on the phone with Mister Hart moments ago, the call suddenly went silent. I thought the signal was bad, so I called back, but there was still no response. Has something happened to Mister Hart?" Harry's voice trembled.Vicky remembered the rainy day when Tyler had gone alone to the rooftop. She paled and stood up abruptly. "I'll go home and check."With no time to spare, Vicky hung up the phone immediately. She grabbed her bag from the table and hurriedly said, "Cece, Jennifer, I have an urgent matter to attend to. I'm afraid I can't stay and have dinner with you."Seeing the worry on Vicky's face, Cece asked, "Vicky, what's wrong?""Tyler suddenly went radio-silent, and I'm worried that something might've happened to him."Understanding the urgency of the situation, both Cece and Jennifer reassured her, "Go ahead, Vicky. Don't worry about us."Vicky was in such a
"Asleep?" Vicky stared at Tyler's face intently. "Are you saying that you were so deeply asleep that you can't hear your phone ringing?"After a few moments of silence, Tyler said, "I'm exhausted today, so yes, I was deeply asleep.""Why did you cut your call with Harry halfway through and fail to answer your phone after that?" Vicky glanced at the phone on the couch and picked it up to unlock it.Sure enough, the screen showed the last contact history with Harry. The call did not last for more than five minutes.As she navigated to the menu, she noticed the missed calls from both Harry and herself."Tyler, don't tell me that you were so tired that you fell asleep during your call with Harry."Her clear eyes seemed to stare right into his soul, and Tyler avoided those eyes in silence.Her heart softened as she studied his face and continued in a softer tone, "Tyler, do you know how worried I was when I received Harry's call? If you're unwell, you can tell me. Don't let the peopl
Both Vicky and Tyler fell into silence once again.After a while, Tyler's voice echoed in the room. "Think of it as my effort of leaving something to remember this dream with. In this dream, we can find a perfect ending."Vicky jolted. 'So he knew all along. He's read my mind like he always has without me saying a word.'She looked at the indifferent look on his face. "Why are you bringing this up today?"Tyler turned to look at her, his eyes deep and unfathomable. "Vicky, you've been too good to me; so good that I can't help but want this dream to last forever. Unfortunately, that's not the case."Vicky trembled. "So?""If you don't want to be with me, don't treat me so well." He smiled bitterly. "I'm afraid I'll use any means necessary to keep you by my side if this goes on."Vicky suddenly remembered what Jennifer had said during dinner not long ago and thought, 'Have I been wrong? If he only has a year's worth of memories about me, does that mean his feelings for me aren't t
Tyler glanced at Vicky, and she swallowed the second half of her sentence.Tyler was right. If she did not wish to be with him, she could not keep caring about him and giving him false hope.Tyler glanced at her and walked toward the study to work.'It's almost ten o'clock, and he should be resting by now. His body still hasn't fully recovered, so he can't overwork himself, let alone stay up late. It looks like he hasn't even had dinner, and he probably hasn't taken his medicine either. Usually, I'd bring the medicine to him, but...' she thought.While she was absorbed in her thoughts, Tyler closed the door to the study.Troubled, Vicky lay on the bed but could not fall asleep, feeling empty from being alone in bed.Jennifer's and Tyler's words echoed in her mind.She repeatedly told herself that they were right. As long as she had not completely given up on leaving him, she should not care for him.After struggling to fall asleep, she checked her phone and noticed that it was
