Chapter 1478
Vickyâs eyes opened, and it was then she saw Tylerâs face inches away from hers.
Her eyes widened in anger, and her cheeks started to turn red. She instinctively moved her face away,
causing the warm water to drip down from her lips to the bed.
Tyler frowned subtly before dropping his head to kiss away the warm water flowing out of the corner of
her lips. âYou need to drink more water. Youâre sick.â
âYouâre just using that excuse to take advantage of me,â said Vicky coldly.
Tyler was starting to get irritated with Vickyâs attitude. âYou canât think I need an excuse to do whatever
I want to you.â
Vicky fell silent. âHeâs right. He has always done whatever he wants to me without a need for an
excuse.â
Tyler then realized he said something he should not have. At that moment, it hit home that he was not
the type of guy who knew to say sweet nothings to make his woman happy.
In fact, the only way he knew how to relate to Vicky was through threats and force. He was not as
funny as Noah or as smooth as Harvey. He did not even know how to express his feelings like that
simpleton Alex, so it was no surprise Vicky did not want to stay with him.
The more he thought about what he lacked, the more anxious he became. Perhaps it was because he
knew he lacked all the things to make Vicky stay by his side that he resorted to using violence to make
her stay.
Tyler was the first to break the long silence with a question.â What do you want to eat later?â
âWhatever,â said Vicky. She did not have the appetite, an abundance of food choices she could pick
from, with her being sick and all that.
Tyler looked at her for a while before phoning the kitchen, telling them to make some chicken soup for
her.
Vicky still did not feel that well, so she decided to take a nap.
Tyler did not bother her anymore. He simply sat by her bed, was okay.
However, even with her eyes closed, Vicky could still feel his eyes on her. So intense was his gaze that
anyone would have found it uncomfortable, let alone someone sick like Vicky.
After a while, she could not stand it anymore. She opened her eyes and said, âIâm going to take a nap.â
âOkay.â
âCan you leave the room? I want to be alone.â
Tyler was obviously upset by her request. âJust sleep. I promise I wonât bother you.â
âI donât like the way you keep on staring at me. Itâs making me uncomfortable.â
Tyler thought she was deliberately kicking up a fuss,
Vicky looked straight into his eyes. âI donât think anyone can stand constantly being stared at by
another person.â
Tylerâs face darkened, but he forced himself to calm down.
At that moment, someone knocked on the door.
âMister Tyler, Iâve brought the chicken soup,â said the servant.
Tyler got up to open the door.
âFinally, heâs not staring at me anymore,â thought Vicky.
However, he quickly came back. The chicken soup was still piping hot, so he placed it on top of the
table to wait for it to cool before sitting back down beside Vicky.
Vickyâs eyes were closed, but Tyler knew she was not sleeping because her eyelashes would flutter
softly from time to time.
âSheâs endearing,â he thought. The more he looked at her, the more he found himself wanting to kiss
her.
