Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1174

Vicky, who was seated next to him, felt tormented. She would not even be there if the matter did not concern the company's well-being. From the moment Tyler walked into the room, he pretended like she did not exist.

After the food was served, Tyler was the first to take some to put on Sheila's plate as though they were newlyweds on their honeymoon. For some reason, Vicky could not help but feel a little crestfallen at this.

When Vicky dated Tyler, he was not as romantic as he was with Sheila, and he did not care about Vicky too. In fact, when they went out to eat, he would busy himself with the food on his plate and leave Vicky to fend for herself. It was Vicky who slowly taught him how to be a caring and romantic boyfriend, yet the one who benefited from her teaching was Sheila.

Suddenly, Cecilia nudged Vicky, pulling the latter out of her reverie. "Vicky, the boss is talking to you."

Vicky turned toward the boss, who sat across the table from her. He gave Vicky a look, signaling her to make a toast as an apology. However, Vicky rarely drank; no matter whether she was home or abroad. She thought it was risky to get drunk since the chances of her making a fool of herself or putting herself in danger would be higher if that were to happen.

Then again, not everyone would understand her reasoning for not wanting to drink since society progressed to a point where no social events would be complete without alcohol. Frankly, Vicky found the whole thing annoying, but the situation that night called for her to take one for the team.

Thus, after pouring herself a glass of wine, she stood up and said, "Miss Young, I'm really sorry for what happened during the fitting. I alone take responsibility for it. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me and give our company another chance." She then offered the glass of wine in her hand to Sheila and said solemnly, "I hope you'll accept this glass of wine from me as an apology and let bygones be bygones."

Shocked, Sheila immediately stood up to take the glass of wine from Vicky when Tyler suddenly said coldly, "Sheila isn't a good drinker, so she'll take a pass."
