Loving You In Secret

Chapter 198

Chapter 198

“Anthony hadn’t left behind many traces of his activities in the city, so we can’t find any evidence of his involvement.”

Anthony said that he came to find his fiance, but no one knew if that was truly his intention or if he was related to the people targeting Tyler. Since he had ‘kidnapped’ Vicky, Tyler realized that there was a need to look into Anthony, but they had not found much and it appeared as though Anthony was truly here to find his fiance. 1

After Harry was done with the report, silence fell over the room and Vicky’s heart sank.

After a while, Tyler said, “Okay. You may go.’

Harry bowed respectfully and left.

Vicky had been told by Cece that Jennifer’s fiance, Anthony, was also a powerful figure, or he would not have the ability to find Jennifer within days -even though she was hiding in a city that was beyond his territory.

Anthony was not all-powerful in Stoneford City, but he was more than capable of destroying the evidence for Vicky.

Because of her connection to Jennifer, it would appear to others that she was close with Anthony somehow. Anyone could conclude that Anthony arranged the kidnapping on the taxi and destroyed all evidence afterward.

As she studied Tyler’s face, what he said earlier echoed inside her head.

‘I believed you once upon a time.1This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

‘Believed me…’ She thought. ‘What about now? Does he still believe me?’

She opened her mouth to speak but eventually decided against it.

Her question was soon answered.

Though Tyler’s attitude toward her had not changed drastically, she could feel the distance building between them.

It was nothing but a faint feeling, and occasionally, Vicky would feel like she was overthinking.

A month later, Tyler had completely healed and was discharged from the hospital.

Vicky returned to work and her relationship with Tyler grew astringed.

Everything appeared to be the same, yet the distance between them was undeniable.

One day, Vicky received a call from Sheila.

“Miss Shaw, can we meet?”

“Can’t you speak on the phone?” said Vicky calmly.

“You’ve been wanting to know why Tyler married you, right? I don’t think that’s something you want to discuss over the phone.”

After a few moments of silence, Vicky asked, “You refused to tell me when

I asked, so why have you changed your mind?”

Sheila chuckled. ’You seem to be quite upset about the fact that Tyler refuses to believe you. Miss Shaw, so I want to ask you out and tell you the story of how you got Tyler to agree to marry you.’

Vicky had looked into this before but could only find rumors of her plotting to sleep with Tyler and forcing him to take responsibility forthat.

She had found nothing else, and even Sebastian thought that Tyler had only agreed to marry her because they had slept together. However, based on Sheila’s tone, there seemed to be more to the story.

Vicky knew that Sheila was not offering her answers out of the kindness in her heart and was most probably trying to break her and Tyler apart.

The past should remain in the past, but she desperately wanted to know what happened. Her instincts told her that Tyler’s distrust was caused by what happened in the past.

“When and where?” Vicky drawled.

Sheila proceeded to inform Vicky of the time and place to meet.

Night fell, and it was pitch-black outside the window.
