Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1288

"Vicky." Tyler's warm breath brushed against Vicky's skin. "Are you protecting me?"

Her gaze shifted away, and she ignored his question. "We need to maintain a united image and confirm some details. If they ask us where we traveled to and we end up saying two different places—mmph!"

Instantly, her words were swallowed by his lips as he kissed her passionately.

She froze for a moment and started to push him away. "Tyler, I'm being serious here..."

Tyler, however, grabbed her wrist and pressed her against the office desk, deepening their kiss.

After a long while, he finally turned his head to release her temporarily.

The lack of oxygen left Vicky panting as she glared at the man before her. "Tyler Hart!"

"Vicky, I'm very happy," his gaze toward her was profound, sending shivers down her spine.

Vicky was taken aback. "You...are happy?"

Although they managed to handle the board meeting temporarily, there was hardly anything to be happy about as she knew the others would still find ways to test Tyler's limits. Moreover, Tyler had physically hurt someone, and she did not know if there would be any repercussions in secret.

'Despite all that, he's happy?' she thought in confusion. 'Has his memory started to mix up again? Is his condition worsening? Or had his cognition deteriorated to this extent, making it impossible for him to distinguish between good and bad things accurately?'

"Mmh," he replied huskily while gently kissing her cheek. "You don't need to sacrifice yourself in this way for me, though. Their opinions don't matter to me."

"He only has a concussion."

Harry understood what Tyler was getting at when he brought up Mister Zeeland as he knew Tyler's temperament well. Although he would not care about insults from others, it did not mean he would tolerate them. Mister Zeeland was definitely going to be punished for what he did.

As a capable assistant, Harry knew he had to be mindful of Tyler's intentions and asked, "Mister Hart, should I teach Mister Zeeland some psychological lessons or physical ones?"

Psychological lessons would involve setting traps to ruin him financially, causing him extreme mental distress but sparing physical harm. Physical lessons, on the other hand, were much more straightforward and brutal.

To Harry's bewilderment, Tyler said, "That won't be necessary. Visit him with a fruit basket."

Harry instinctively asked, "Do you want me to poison the apples?"
