Chapter 1139
Tyler was frustrated at how cold Vicky was toward him but could only remain calm as he landed her in this position
in the first place.
He bent down and planted a gentle kiss on her cheek. "I will be back soon."
Vicky remained silent.
With a final glance at her, Tyler turned and stepped out of the room.
After closing the door behind him, Tyler said to the guards outside the room, "I need to leave for a while. Call a few
more men over to guard the room. No one is to step foot inside without my permission, understood?"
"Yes, Sir.”
After a moment of hesitation, Tyler added, "Vicky is not allowed to leave the room either."

With that said, Tyler finally left.
After handling urgent matters at the company, Tyler rushed back.
Upon receiving confirmation from the bodyguards that Vicky had not left the room and nothing unusual occurred,

finally relaxed.
Pushing open the door to the room, he found it quiet inside. He was concerned that he would disrupt Vicky's rest, so
he walked lightly.
As he entered the bedroom, he spotted her lying on the bed, soundly asleep.
The moment he laid eyes on her, his heart finally settled, and he felt himself relaxing.
Despite knowing that no one could take Vicky from him given his current arrangements, he could not help but feel
anxious when she was out of his sight.
This sense of anxiety only disappeared completely when he saw Vicky.
Silently, Tyler walked to her bedside and gently pulled the blanket over her, not even noticing how gentle he was
being.
At that moment, his eyes inadvertently swept over a bowl placed aside.
The steam that once filled the bowl had already dissipated, and the soup inside remained untouched.
Tyler was first taken aback, then a hint of annoyance appeared on his face as he considered waking Vicky up.
However, just as he was about to touch her, his hand froze mid-air. After a brief moment of hesitation, he slowly
withdrew it.
In the end, he did nothing but continued to fixate his deep gaze on her unblinkingly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter some time, Vicky was awakened by thirst and reached out for the water glass on the table.
Her head was still a bit dizzy, and her body felt feeble, so even reaching for the glass seemed extremely difficult.
Suddenly, a hand reached out and picked up the glass from the table before gently bringing it to her lips.
It was only then that Vicky noticed that someone sat by her bedside. She was momentarily stunned when she laid
eyes on Tyler but quickly recovered to take the glass and drank the water silently.
"Do you want more?" Tyler asked.
Vicky shook her head. "No, thank you."
The man placed the glass back on the table.
The sun was setting, and the room grew progressively darker as no lights were turned on. Tyler's sophisticated
features were shrouded in dim light, making it difficult to discern his expression clearly.
Vicky felt the atmosphere becoming somewhat heavy and noticed that Tyler seemed to be in a bad mood.
Unsure of who might have provoked him, she remained silent and chose not to speak.
Silence lingered, and the room seemed to grow colder.
Vicky had no intention of breaking the silence, and in the end, it was Tyler who spoke first.
