Chapter 1031

Rain was falling.

Vicky stood in front of the window, feeling glad that she had returned home in time.

She had been out the whole day and was feeling exhausted. She closed the curtains and went for a

quick shower, before hurrying to bed to rest.

She listened to the sound of raindrops falling outside her window and soon drifted off to sleep.

Sometime later, she jolted awake from the sudden feeling of being suffocated. Feeling dazed, she

carefully opened her eyes.

The room was dark and the curtains blocked out all forms of light.

She could still hear the thunderstorm outside and because she was in deep sleep a few moments ago,

she was struggling to get rid of the suffocating feeling.

She took some time to process what was happening, and that was when she finally realized something

was wrong.

Someone was forcefully kissing her.

It was as if all the oxygen was being sucked out of her; she was suffocating under the weight of it all.

In an instant, Vicky snapped back to reality and forcefully pushed the man off her. “Tyler, I thought you

left?!” she exclaimed.

He halted his movements.

In the dark, they could not see each other’s expressions, but Vicky could feel the intense gaze that was

upon her, alongside a daunting oppressiveness.

“I waited for you to bring the clothes to me, but instead of delivering them, you went back to sleep

instead…” His voice sounded hoarse and unnatural.

Vicky immediately tried to explain herself, “I looked for you in the living room and the study but you

weren’t there. I thought you left…”

“I waited for you in the guest room until midnight, but you never showed up,” he said. “Vicky, you’ve

achieved your goal.

rv

Before Vicky could ask what he meant by that, he lowered his head and kissed her once again.

Vicky wanted to explain herself, but no words could escape her lips; her struggles and resistance were

slowly subdued one by one.

Although they’ve slept together before, Vicky still felt incredibly uneasy and was on the verge of giving

up on everything.

When Vicky woke up, the sun had already risen a few hours ago. The rain outside had stopped, but the

sky remained gloomy and overcast.

Vicky glanced at the empty spot beside her on the bed and noticed that Tyler was gone.

From the direction of the bathroom, Vicky could faintly hear the sound of running water.

She buried her head in the bed, closed her eyes, and forced herself to regain her composure before

changing into a clean set of clothes.

After Tyler emerged from the bathroom, Vicky had already brought the shopping bag containing his

clothes into the room.

“These are your clothes,” she said coldly and impassively, with no intention of discussing the events of

last night any further. “You can leave now.”

Tyler did not spare a glance at the clothes and calmly replied, “Vicky, what do you take me for?”

Upon processing the deeper meaning behind his words, Vicky’s expression darkened. “What do you

mean?”

Tyler shrugged and leisurely laid on the sofa. All this while, he maintained a relaxed and elegant

posture, as if he were in his own home. “I just want you to give me an explanation, Ms. Shaw.”

“What kind of explanation?”

“When you needed me, you did everything to grab my attention. You even used Aurora to get closer to

me. Now that you no longer need me, you want to cast me aside?” He gazed at her with a half-smile.

“Vicky Shaw, do you take me for some guy from a nightclub that you can cast aside whenever you feel

like it?”
