Chapter 1488
Seeing Aurora seated by the window, Vicky walked over.â When did you arrive?â
âJust now.â Aurora signaled for a waiter, and they began to place their orders.
After placing their orders, Aurora studied Vickyâs expression and whispered, âVicky, how have things
been between you and Tyler recently?â
Vicky did not hide anything. âIâve returned to my apartment for the time being.â
Aurora did not show any surprise upon hearing this. Instead, she hesitated and looked at Vicky intently.
Vicky frowned. âDo you have something to say to me?â
After a few seconds of hesitation, Aurora finally spoke,â Thereâs a talented pianist who has emerged in
the entertainment circle recently. Some people have spotted herâ¦entering and leaving the same room
and location as Tyler on multiple occasionsâ¦â
This piece of news had not been made public, but it had circulated in the industry. Many had seen it
happen, and a few even managed to capture a couple of photos.
Though these photos could not be published, gossip could not be contained. Even Aurora had seen a
few photos, which proved just how frequently Tyler met with the female
pianist.
Vickyâs gaze flickered, but she lowered her head and uttered, âOh.â
Beyond that, she showed no other emotions.
Aurora wanted to ask more questions, but seeing Vicky seemed unwilling to share or perhaps did not
care much, she refrained from pursuing the matter.
At that moment, the waiter brought the beverages they ordered.
Vicky lifted her cup and was about to take a sip.
Crash!
The cup slipped from her hand and shattered when it fell to the floor. The drink splattered Vickyâs
clothes.
Aurora acted swiftly and produced several tissue papers.â Vicky, clean yourself with these!â
Vicky stared at her trembling hand in a daze, unable to comprehend what had just happened.
âVicky?â came a familiar voice, sounding with a hint of surprise.
Vicky looked up and saw a handsome face.
âChris?â Surprised to see him, she asked, âWhy are you here?â
Since their encounter at the bar, Vicky had not gone back to that place, nor had they contacted each
other.
âI came here for a meal.â Chris glanced at the shattered cup and Vickyâs disheveled appearance with a
frown. âAre you hurt?â
Aurora, who was wiping Vickyâs clothes, paused at his words. Following Chrisâ gaze, she indeed
noticed a faint mark on the back of Vickyâs hand, seemingly caused by a fragment.
She was sitting right in front of Vicky but had not noticed it. Chris, however, noticed it from a distance,
which indicated he had been observing Vicky for a while.
Auroraâs gaze flickered with realization.
Vicky spotted the wound on the back of her hand as well but paid no mind to it. âItâs fine. It will heal
tomorrow.â
Just then, the waiter seemed to have noticed the commotion and came over to check. Once he
confirmed that Vicky was alright, he immediately cleaned all the shattered glass from the ground.
âDo you need to get changed?â Chris asked.
The drink was all over Vicky, and it indeed felt uncomfortable. However, Vicky obviously did not have a
change of clothes with her.
âVicky, just wait here. Iâll go to the nearby mall and get you a change of clothes,â said Aurora before she
turned to look at Chris. âAre you Vickyâs friend?â
âYes.â Chris nodded. âMy name is Chris Leonheart.â
