"Vicky." Tyler stared at Vicky with a dull expression as he coldly said, "I warned you before. Stay away from those messed up men."Vicky frowned. "Tyler, don't judge others against your own values. Charlie isn't messed up."Tyler's expression remained unchanged by Vicky's retort, yet the grip on her wrist tightened.Vicky felt like her wrist was about to be squashed and struggled to break free. "Let go of me, Tyler!"Tyler looked down at her. "Oh, are you defending him now? Is he also the guy who sent you back home the other night? When did you two start to be together? How far out are you two?""Are you crazy?!" Vicky turned pale because of the pain. Tyler was gripping her wrist so tightly that she could not break free from it.He looked at the man's jacket on her shoulder, and his eyes flashed with viciousness.With his finger, he lifted her delicate, slender chin and frivolously remarked, "Have you two slept together?"Vicky was so angry that her face paled. She raised her
Tears were brimming in Vicky's eyes as she whimpered, "Okay…I understand."Tyler observed her for a while to make sure she was not lying. Only then did he lower his head to kiss her on the lip.Vicky's first instinct was to dodge his lips, but when she saw his cold eyes, she did not dare to make any movement.Satisfied by her compliancy, Tyler continued to kiss her when all of a sudden, footsteps were coming toward them as the voices of a few girls rang in the air."Oh wow, there's an observation deck!""This club is in the city center, mind you. It has a great view, so they specially built an observation deck for people to admire the night view.""It looks so pretty from here!"Three girls opened the door of the observation deck and walked outside.Vicky stiffened at this. 'Those voices… They're the three actresses involved in the movie. If they find out I'm here with Tyler…'She dared not imagine the consequences.Tyler had already let go of her hands. She put her hands on
After the three actresses left, Vicky collapsed immediately. Had Tyler not held on to her waist, she would have fallen to her knees.He looked at her pale face and curled up his lips. "Why are you so scared? Are you afraid for people to discover you and tell your loverboy about it?"Vicky felt so cold due to the night's freezing wind. Tyler had already thrown the jacket Charlie gave her to the floor, and her back was soaked with sweat.She had never been in such a terrible situation.It was not because people were mocking her. It was a terrible feeling that she felt from her heart.With eyes still blurred with tears, she muttered, "Charlie and I are just friends...""Then why are you so scared of letting them see us?" Tyler looked at her. "It's as if our relationship is so shameful."Vicky moved her eyes and focused back on him. "It's enough that you are showing off by being with your confidante every day. Do you want the whole world to know you have a wife and a lover at the sa
When Vicky went back to get Charlie's jacket, it was in a bad condition after Tyler stepped on it. Without a choice, she bought a new one to give Charlie as compensation.As Vicky walked out of the shopping mall with the bag, someone screamed, "That's her; the girl rumored to be dating Charlie Shepherd!"As soon as Vicky heard that, a horde of reporters surrounded her with their cameras."Miss, what's your relationship with Charlie?""Someone took a photo of you going to a hotel with Charlie late at night. What are you two doing in the hotel? Are you two there to discuss the script?""What's your opinion on the rumors someone revealed this morning?"There were tons of questions thrown at her, and Vicky did not know how to react."Vicky!"Suddenly, she heard Charlie's voice from the entrance. She had no idea when he was even around, complete with a mask, a cap, and sunglasses on his face."Over here!"Vicky reacted and quickly walked to the entrance when she saw Charlie.The
The car arrived at the underground car park of the hotel. Before they got out of the car, however, Jules took a look at their surroundings. Upon confirming there were no reporters in the car park, she told Vicky and Charlie, "You can get off now."Charlie got off first.When Vicky was getting out of the car, a water bottle was sent flying toward her. "You b*tch! How dare you seduce Charlie, you shameful person?!"Before the water bottle could hit Vicky, Charlie quickly rushed to her side and enveloped her in his arms.Thump! The water bottle slammed against Charlie's back.It was then Jules spotted Charlie's maniacal fans in the car park and said quickly, "Go! I'll stop them!"Charlie and Jules had gotten used to this sort of emergency. Thus, Charlie did not hesitate and pulled Vicky away from the car park.…Vicky's phone almost died because people were calling her nonstop after the news. First, it was Cece, followed by Jennifer and Mister Kirby.She had her heated phone in h
...The next day, Vicky walked out of her room with the bag containing a male jacket.After everything that happened the day before, she forgot to pass the jacket back to Charlie and figured she could hand it to him later at the hotel restaurant.She had a strict biological clock and would head down for breakfast at the same time every day.For the past few days, she would often run into Charlie, but for some reason, not only had she not run into him when she went down the floors in the elevator, but she had not seen him at breakfast either.Though confused, Vicky did not think much of it until she arrived at the production site to find the crew whispering to one another and the production paused.When Mindy arrived at the dressing room and saw Vicky, she waved her hand at Vicky. "Vicky, come over for a bit."Confused, Vicky followed Mindy into the dressing room. "Vicky, Charlie is in trouble."Vicky froze. "In trouble? Is it about that scandal?""No. Well, kind of..." Mindy m
Tyler did not speak, but Sheila, who was standing next to him, gaped. "Miss Shaw, it's so late now. Why haven't you gone to rest?"It was close to midnight, and it was indeed odd for Vicky to be in the hotel lobby."I need to talk to Tyler," Vicky said emotionlessly.Sheila glanced at Tyler and hesitated at his lack of response. "Tyler has been really busy lately and has just gotten off his flight. If it's not important, maybe you can talk to him tomorrow."Vicky ignored Sheila and stared at Tyler intently. "Can we talk?"He did not spare her a single look and simply walked toward the elevator. "Maybe tomorrow.""Tyler..."The elevator door opened, and he walked in.Vicky followed him inside and said, "It won't take that long.""What do you want to say?"Vicky glanced at Sheila hesitantly.Since no one else was using the elevator at this time, the elevator ascended quickly and arrived at the presidential suite while Vicky was hesitating.Tyler walked out almost immediately,
"Five?""Yeah." Sheila kept her eyes trained on Vicky. "Tyler has been busy and just returned to Arrowtown yesterday. He's out most of the time and rarely sleeps. That's why I advised you to let him rest."Sheila was clearly acting as though she was Tyler's wife, which amused Vicky, but she did not intend on commenting on Sheila's attitude."Alright," she said before turning to leave....In the following days, Vicky had not been able to see Tyler.He seemed to be extremely busy and rarely returned to his hotel room, and despite standing outside his door for three days in a row, she had not seen Tyler anywhere.She tried calling Tyler.He would answer occasionally, and hang up at other times. Even when she managed to get a hold of him, he would soon be called away for meetings and had to hang up again.The clouds gathered and Vicky stood in front of the window, staring at the traffic outside on the road with a heavy heart.She made another phone call, and after half a minute,
