Chapter 1503
They stopped living together and rarely saw one another. He had not harmed her, but it became
apparent that he was still harming himself.
Dazed, Vicky was lost in her thoughts.
Just then, the light above the surgical room went off and she snapped out of it.
âDoctor, how is he?â She asked.
âHe will live.â The doctor took off his mask. âHowever, he suffers bone fractures all over his body and
Iâm afraid he will have to be on bed rest for a while.â
She nodded. âThank you, Doctor.â
Vicky spent an entire night at the hospital, only leaving once Chris had regained consciousness. Before
departing, she called Cece, asking her to watch over Chris for a while as she made arrangements to
hire a nurse.
After enduring so much and not sleeping for another night, Vicky felt weary.
Standing by the roadside, she hailed a taxi.
She gave the address of her apartment and closed her eyes fora momentâs rest. However, that brief
slumber turned into an extended one. When she finally opened her eyes, darkness enveloped her.
Disoriented from just waking up, Vicky momentarily forgot about where she was and believed that she
was still at home.
Slowly sitting up, she prepared to turn on the light when something cold and metallic dangled from her
wrist and produced a crisp sound as it swayed.
Confused, she reached out to touch the cold object on her wrist. It was not until that instant that she
recalled leaving the hospital and getting into a taxi to go home.
Have I been kidnapped by a psychopath or something?â She thought.
As she attempted to comprehend her situation, footsteps echoed from the direction of the doorway and
Vicky tensed instantly.
The door creaked open and as the switch was flicked, a dim yellow light cast an eerie glow, dimly
illuminating the surroundings.
Vickyâs gaze shifted involuntarily toward the doorway to find a pitch-black silhouette slowly approaching
her. Amidst the interplay of light and shadows, a sharply chiseled handsome face emerged.
Upon seeing the man, Vicky let out a sigh of relief at the realization that she was not captured by a
random person.
However, that fleeting thought was soon replaced by a realization that something was not right.
She surveyed her surroundings and found them oddly familiar. Soon enough, Vicky recalled that Tyler
had been incoherent, he seemed to have brought her to this place.
In the past few days, Tylerâs condition appeared to have stabilized.
As Tyler drew nearer, Vicky drifted into a daze.
He clearly noticed her absent-minded and distant expression and a trace of resentment crossed his
eyes as he assumed that she was thinking of another man.
Without uttering a word, he captured her chin and kissed her, forcibly reining her back into the present.
Vicky snapped out of it and struggled, but her wrists and ankles were chained.
The kiss was deep and consuming, so much so that Vicky found it uncomfortable. At this moment, she
felt helpless and subjected to whatever he willed.
It had been a long time since he had touched her.
Ever since the previous incident, he had refrained from forcing himself on her, yet she felt the same
menacing and ominous aura of danger once more.
