Chapter 848

“I'm way better now. The doctor said that I’ll be fully recovered after a month.”

After hearing that Vickie would need one more month to fully recover, instead of being relieved, Jackson’s eyebrows began to wrinkle.

“It must be a serious injury, right?”

Vickie nodded her head.

She did not explain the reason behind her injury. As both of them had just met, Jackson did not want to pry deeper.

He did not want to overstep his boundaries.

Thus, he said, “Please be more careful in the future, Miss Thomas. I wish you a speedy recovery.”

Vickie grinned and said, “Thanks.”

After that, the two of them did not say another word until they reached the restroom. Jackson pointed forward and said, “It’s right over there. You can go there by yourself, Miss Thomas.”

Vickie nodded her head and thanked Jackson before entering the restroom.

After she was done using the toilet, she fixed her makeup in front of the mirror. Then, she turned around and got ready to leave the restroom.

At that moment, just as her hand grabbed the doorknob, her body suddenly froze.

Vickie had been wandering around the boundary of life and death for many years. As such, her instincts were telling her that there was someone else in the restroom.

The restroom was an isolated place in the VIP zone. There was only one toilet and sink in that area.

When she entered the restroom, there was no one inside. That was why...

She gripped the doorknob and took a deep breath before opening the door.

Jackson was still waiting outside, somewhere not too far from the restroom.

Vickie was a little surprised. She had thought that he would leave her after bringing her to the restroom.

She walked toward him and smiled. “Sorry for making you wait for me.”

Jackson put out the cigarette in his hand and said, “It’s no bother. I didn’t have anything to do as well.”

He stopped for a while. Then, he continued, “Are you done? If you’re done, then let’s go.”

Vickie nodded her head.

Thus, the two of them walked back to the lounge.

However, Vickie suddenly stopped when they had just walked two steps forward. She quickly turned around. “Oh no, my bracelet is missing. I think I left it in the restroom. Let me go back to look for it.”

Jackson was shocked and turned around. He then asked, “What bracelet? Do you need my help?”

Vickie shook her head.

She raised her head and saw a woman who just exited the restroom. As the woman was wearing a janitor’s uniform, she was probably on cleaning duty.

Vickie wrinkled her eyebrows.

Jackson walked to Vickie’s side at that moment. He saw her standing there without making another step. Her eyes held a glint of anger. It was as if those eyes were swearing. He could not help but feel confused.

“What happened?”

Vickie raised her head and took out a refined leaf bracelet from her sleeves.

“It’s alright, you don’t have to look for it anymore. Apparently, it hung onto the lace on my dress’ sleeves.”

Jackson sighed in relief and smiled. “That’s good to hear. Let’s get going then.”

Vickie nodded her head.

Both of them walked outside.

On the way, Vickie paid close attention to her back to check for any suspicious activities. After she was certain that no one was following them, her eyebrows wrinkled.

Was she overthinking just now?

Was that janitor really cleaning the restroom?

She did not know why, but she had a strange feeling in her heart.

After reconsidering for a while, she thought that maybe it was because she was too sensitive.

After she arrived at the venue, Vickie realized that Gregory was looking for her.

She walked toward Gregory. When Gregory saw that she was together with Jackson, his eyes darkened for a moment. He quickly walked toward Vickie and asked, “Why didn’t you tell me that you wanted to come out?”

His tone might have been vexing, but it was surprisingly intimate as well.

Jackson looked at both of them with a surprised expression.

“Miss Thomas and Young Master Graham know each other?”

Even though he was not close friends with Gregory, he had seen Gregory before as Massimo’s close friend.

As such, both of them knew each other.

However, Jackson did not know that Vickie had come with Gregory tonight.

Gregory raised his head to look at Jackson. Before he could even speak, Vickie already opened her mouth.

She smiled at Jackson and said, “Thank you Young Master Scott, for taking care of me and accompanying me to the restroom. Sorry for the trouble.

I’m alright now, so you can get on with your things.”

Jackson looked at Vickie, then he looked at Gregory. In the end, he knew that it was not a convenient time to ask too many questions. As such, he turned around and left.

After Jackson left, Gregory asked Vickie, “Do your legs hurt?”

Vickie nodded her head. “A little bit.”

Just as she finished her sentence, someone already lifted her up.

Vickie shouted out of surprise as her facial expression changed. She unconsciously hugged Gregory’s neck and screamed, “What are you doing?”

Gregory kept a poker face. “Didn’t you say that your legs hurt?”

“I...”

“Just because my legs hurt, it doesn’t give you permission to lift me up.’

She could not finish her sentence as Gregory was already carrying her to the lounge.

At that moment, Jackson had seen everything from nearby as he frowned.

After they reached the lounge, Gregory put Vickie on the sofa and bent down in front of her. He held her ankle and took off her shoes.

Vickie opened her mouth. “Don’t...”

Before she could finish her sentence, he had already noticed that her legs were slightly swollen.

He frowned.

Even though the doctor had said that Vickie could walk around, he also said that she should avoid wearing high heels for long periods.

It was clear that she had stood for too long.

Earlier, he had heard that Vickie was playing games and drinking with the other boys. Now that her legs were swollen, a sudden feeling of anger appeared in his heart.

He raised his head and looked at her. He then asked, “What did I tell you before we left? I told you to stay here and wait for me. Why didn’t you listen to me? You even played games with them.”

Vickie felt a little guilty and avoided his gaze. She dared not to lock eyes with him.

However, her mouth continued to be stubborn. “I’ll do whatever I want. What does that have to do with you?”

When she finished her sentence, a dark shadow suddenly shrouded her vision. The next moment, something had touched her lips.

Her eyes widened in shock.

That was a passionate kiss.

Those lips had appeared in his dreams so many times. He had imagined kissing those lips, yet he could still reminisce that sweet taste.

Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 However, he could only observe those lips from afar no matter how many times he had seen those lips.

He had to suffer in silence for so long.

Now that he had kissed those lips once more, he realized that those memories were actually hidden. He thought that he had forgotten about them. He did not know that those sweet memories were always there in the depths of his mind.

All he needed was a little push for those sweet memories to reappear once more.

Vickie was reluctant at the beginning.

That kiss was too sudden for her. She did not know how it happened or why it happened.

However, his lips were locked with her own. Now, it seemed as if he wanted to take it another step further.
