Chapter 1572
Gilbert stopped his car in front of Vicky's apartment.
Before she got out of the car, she said to him, "Thanks for the ride, and I'm sorry for what happened
today. I was supposed to buy you a meal, but I troubled you to give me a ride home instead.â
"Oh, nonsense. It was no trouble at all. A friend of Aurora is also a friend of mine, so don't worry about
it," Gilbert said with a smile.
It was better to make more friends than enemies, went Gilbert's thinking.
âWell, thanks again. In any case, I still owe you a meal,â said Vicky.
âHaha! I'll keep that in mind.â
After saying goodbye to Gilbert, Vicky went up to her apartment. She was no longer staying at the
same apartment she did four years ago. She moved to a bigger unit since it would be easier for her to
host her friends with the added space.
While opening her door, she thought about how to get the video from Avery. She did not know how
Avery got the video, but she must get it off her as she did not want to be blackmailed forever.
After changing into her indoor slippers and turning on the light, she went to take a shower. Aurora had
gone back to her own home a few days ago, so being the only person in the house, Vicky only put on a
bathrobe after she finished taking the bath.
Suddenly, she heard a weird noise coming from one of the rooms. She stopped drying her hair and
called out softly, * Aurora? Is that you?"
Sometimes, when Aurora had nothing better to do, she would let herself into Vicky's place using the
passcode she was given. Still, she would always inform Vicky beforehand.
âMaybe she texted me while I was in the shower...â thought Vicky. Suddenly, she heard a big commotion
coming from her bedroom. âThat's weird. Aurora's not the type to go into my bedroom without asking.â
Vicky slowly pushed over her bedroom door and saw a person she knew standing quietly in her
bedroom.
âWhat... What are you doing here?!" gasped Vicky. She rubbed her eyes, thinking she was either
dreaming or hallucinating.
The person glanced at her. "Where did you go? How come you're home later than me?â
Vicky did not bother to answer his question. She looked at him blankly and asked, "Tyler, why... Why
are you here?"
"I just felt like coming,â he said indifferently.
âWhat?â Vicky finally snapped out of her shock. She looked at him warily, asking, "How did you get in?â
"From the door, of course.â
