Vickyâs body was damaged by her previous miscarriage, and conceiving again was a challenge.
Tyler should have been aware of this.
A child could be a binding force between a couple, something that could never be severed. Without a
child, a couple could
easily part ways.
âSo this is what heâs plotting, huh?â Aurora murmured, her voice barely audible. âHeâs still as cunning
and devious as
always.â She stood up abruptly and walked toward Vickyâs office. âI must remind Vicky not to let Tyler
whisk her away so quickly.â
â¦
Knocking on the office door, Aurora entered.
Vicky was busy looking at design sketches. Her eyes lit up upon seeing Aurora.
âAurora?â
Aurora noticed Jade sitting on the couch and gave her a nod and a smile in greeting.
Turning her attention to the bouquet of roses placed on the desk, Aurora asked, âWho sent these
flowers?â
A slight crease formed on Vickyâs forehead, and Aurora immediately grasped the situation. âI just
bought it in the heat of
the moment,â Vicky replied.
Auroraâs gaze shifted to the vase filled with vibrant roses. âVicky, I assume these were sent by Tyler,
right?â She pursed
her lips. âHeâs quite skilled at this, isnât he?â
With a quick scan of the room, Aurora noticed a neatly arranged stack of books on the couch. They
ranged from
pregnancy guidelines, nutritional planning during pregnancy, prenatal education, and even a few books
on postpartum
recovery for women.
Aurora frowned. It was no wonder that Cece switched sides so quickly.
She took a seat in front of Vicky and said, âI just saw Tyler. According to Cece, he went to prepare
lunch for you, right?â
Vicky nodded. âYes.â
Auroraâs gaze returned to the vase of roses. âVicky, you mustnât give in so easily.â She did not care if
Jade would report
this to Tyler after hearing it and continued eagerly, âYouâve always been easily swayed by him. This
time, you need to
teach him a lesson. Keep giving him the cold shoulder! Let him chase after you and keep maintaining
that distant attitude.
I guarantee he wonât have the time or inclination to misbehave. And remember, you can summon him
whenever you need
him now! Heâs the childâs father; who else should you rely on? I think your current relationship is quite
good. Itâs like youâre
in the honeymoon phase, and heâs still tip-toeing around you.â
Jade sat on the couch and listened to Auroraâs advice on how to handle her employer, all while silently
shaking her head.
Vicky listened to Aurora patiently but did not say much. She even poured a glass of water for Aurora
when her throat was
running dry from all the talking.
ââ¦â Jade watched them in resignation.
Finally, Aurora left the room before Tyler returned.
â¦
Time flew by, and under Tylerâs meticulous care, Vickyâs pregnancy became stable and healthy.
Vicky had reached four months into her pregnancy and was no longer suffering from morning sickness.
One day, Tyler returned on time to prepare lunch.
While Vicky was engrossed in her work, she received a call from an employee about a troublesome
customer.
She hastily went downstairs to assess the situation, and Jade immediately followed her.
