Chapter 1033
Vicky shot him a faint smile. "Mister Hart, isn’t it too early to discuss such matters? Let's wait until after a month to
see if it actually happens." She took out the clothes from her shopping bag and said, "It's getting late. You should
change into your work clothes and head to the office soon."
"I didn't eat much yesterday," Tyler replied, sitting on the couch without moving. "Make me breakfast."
A hint of annoyance flashed past Vicky's eyes, but she calmly suppressed it. "Alright, I'll go and prepare breakfast
for you while you get changed."
She did not want to give Tyler any more excuses to bother her.
After breakfast was ready, Tyler appeared downstairs fully dressed. They ate in silence, and soon after, Tyler left.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs he drove away, Vicky noticed that he had shamelessly parked his car in the villa's garage.
Not long after Tyler's departure, Vicky received a call from Aurora.
"Vicky, the thunder last night was so terrifying..." Aurora's voice sounded weak from a sleepless night. "I called
Tyler, but he didn't answer. I stayed up all night, I was too afraid to sleep."
Vicky did not know what to say. After all, it made sense that Tyler did not answer any of Aurora's calls because he
was with Vicky all night.
Suppressing her guilt, Vicky spoke, "Why don't you just go home and apologize to your parents? I'm sure they won't
blame you for what happened."
"Not a chance," Aurora immediately refused. "If I go home now, they might think that I plan on accepting their
arrangements, and I won't be able to pursue a career in the entertainment industry anymore if I do that."
"Then... Why not hire a female bodyguard to go with you?"
"It feels awkward and strange to be in the same room with someone I don't know well."
Vicky wanted to point out that they were not familiar with each other either, and it would be awkward for Aurora to
stay at her place. Moreover, it was odd for her ex-husband's current fiance to be anywhere near her.
Vicky did not relent. "Since you didn't sleep well last night, you should rest properly during the day."
"Vicky..."
"I have something else to attend to, so I'll hang up now."
After ending the call, Vicky let out a long sigh.
With Cece and Jennifer gone, Vicky brought all her work back home.
After breakfast, she sat in her study room and began to work. The moment Vicky was immersed in her work, she

After a while, her work reached a temporary pause and she had a moment to regain her senses.
She rubbed her shoulders and checked the time, realizing it was already past five.
When she glanced at the sky, she noticed that it was raining again. Luckily it was not as heavy as the previous night.
Vicky went downstairs to prepare some food for herself and since she was alone, she only prepared simple dishes.
Just then, her phone rang.
Looking at the screen, she realized that it was a call from Aurora.
She stared at her phone while it vibrated for a while before answering the call. Vicky could not bring herself to act
like close friends with Aurora and said, "Miss Starling."
"Vicky..." Aurora called out weakly. "I'm outside your door... Can you come outside for a moment?" 1
Startled, Vicky said, "What?!"
"It's been raining all day and it's dark out here. I'm really scared..."
Vicky gazed outside the window and spotted a slim figure outside the main door.
