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,
The scent on Tyler's body felt both familiar and strange at the same time.Perhaps it was because she had just woken up, and she felt dazed still."Vicky, have you been waiting at the door to offer yourself up to me?" She heard his husky voice above her and felt his warm breath against her skin.Vicky snapped out of her daze and instinctively shoved him away, but since the numbness on her feet remained, she soon fell back into his arms yet again."Heh," he scoffed and lifted her chin.As she gazed upon his perfect features, he looked into her eyes and smirked coldly. "That eager, huh?""I'm not—" Before she could finish, she was lifted off her feet.Once they entered the room, Tyler tossed her onto the bed and pinned her down before kissing her fiercely.Terrified, Vicky struggled, but none of her protests was heard as she suffocated in his kiss, so she bit down on his lip with all her might.The taste of blood stopped Tyler, and he gazed down at him as the blood stained his l
"Are you trying to tell me that you didn't dine and return to the same hotel at the same time, nor did he drink your alcohol on your behalf? You haven't bought him any piece of clothing, and you two weren't seen holding each other?"She narrowed her eyes. "We ran into each other inside the elevator and went to the first floor together for the buffet. You saw it as well. He drank my beer simply because he didn't want me to drink too much and hinder the progress of the filming. As for the clothing…" Vicky paused."I lost the jacket he lent me, and all I was trying to do was buy him a replacement. Charlie and I are just friends. I don't like owing others. That's the only reason why I bought him a jacket. That hug... He was simply shielding me from the attack of a hysterical fan of his. We parted ways from that point onward and have not seen each other since."The smoke rose and blurred Tyler's features as he narrowed his dark eyes.Vicky observed the man on the couch, not knowing if h
