Loving You In Secret
Chapter 700

Chapter 700

After serving Vicky food, Tyler did not leave and sat across the table to dine with her.

She thought he did not understand anything when he knew exactly what she meant.

After lunch, Tyler left for work.

…

For the next few days, Tyler was absorbed by work and would return home late at night. Still, he would prepare all meals for Vicky and would often return home before noon to cook lunch for her before heading out again, which made Vicky feel extremely guilty.

A week went by, and Vicky’s ankle recovered.

According to what Mister Geoge planned, the academy should have resolved the conflict with Jonathan within a week, but Vicky had not received any update from anyone at this point.

Confused, she tried contacting Mister George, but he did not answer her calls or text messages.

Not daring to go outside, Vicky called Gloria.

“Vicky?” Gloria answered.

“Gloria, what’s going on with the academy?” Vicky cut to the chase. “I’ve been trying to get hold of Mister George, but I can’t reach him.”

After a long silence, Gloria said, “Mister George ran into a car accident two days ago, and he’s still unconscious in the ICU.”

“Car accident?” Realization dawned on her. “C—Can it be that Jonathan…”

“We haven’t found whoever did this, so we don’t know who’s pulling the strings, but Mister George is one of the members responsible for negotiating terms with Jonathan’s family. His accident has definitely put a stop to the process. We can’t proceed until he wakes up.”

Unfortunately, no one knew when Mister George would regain consciousness.

After a few moments of silence, Vicky said, “Alright. Thank you.”

Before ending the call, Gloria asked, “Where are you right now, Vicky?”

Vicky did not know how to explain her current situation and said, “I’m safe right now. Don’t worry.”

Sensing that Vicky did not wish to go into detail, Gloria did not press on. “Remember to stay hidden for a while longer.”

After the call, worry filled Vicky’s eyes as she wondered about Mister George’s status.

…

At night, Tyler returned home early out of character and spotted a slim figure stepping out of the kitchen with some vegetables in hand as soon as he stepped through the door.

Startled by his sudden appearance, Vicky asked, “Mister Hart? Why are you back so early today?”

He shot her a look and said, “Work isn’t as hectic today.”

“I didn’t know you’d come home so early, so dinner isn’t prepared yet… Give me half an hour.”

This was the first time Vicky cooked since she was injured.

Tyler did not say anything and headed back to his room to change.

Half an hour later, someone came knocking on his door, and Vicky said, “Mister Hart, dinner is ready.”

Tyler opened the door and stepped outside in his casual wear.

He had tried Vicky’s cooking in the past and found nothing he did not expect. Vicky, on the other hand, developed a rather picky appetite after eating Tyler’s cooking for a whole week and had a hard time adjusting to eating her cooking.

It was not that her cooking tasted horrible, but Tyler’s cooking skill was simply far superior.
