Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1338

"Missus Hart?"

Vicky turned and saw a blond, blue-eyed foreign man standing behind her. It did not take her long to remember who he was—Harold, one of Tyler's business partners. She had met him during a contract signing with Tyler some time ago.

Vicky politely extended her hand. "Harold, it's a pleasure to see you again."

Harold held her hand and lightly kissed the back of it. "Missus Hart, I'm delighted to see you again too."

Having lived abroad, Vicky understood this kind of gesture was mere etiquette, so she was not at all surprised and remained composed and graceful.

As she was about to exchange pleasantries with Harold, a dull sound was heard, followed by Harold's pained cry.

"Ah!"

Vicky was taken aback for a moment before she looked up.

Behind Harold stood a tall, handsome man. His face was refined, but his expression was downright intimidating. His pitch-black eyes seemed to emit chilling intent.

He seemed to have smashed the tray in his hand down onto Harold's head with great force, causing him to bleed.

The abrupt noise attracted the attention of everyone at the banquet, and they all looked in their direction.

"Tyler..." Vicky also stared at him in astonishment.

Noticing the shock and unease in her eyes, the look in Tyler's eyes darkened, and he instantly concealed all traces of hostility. His expression returned to its calm state as he explained, "I'm sorry, my hand slipped."

This explanation lacked sincerity; no one could accidentally hit someone so hard that their head started bleeding. However, given Tyler's status, anything he said went.

Someone chimed in. "Haha, the tray must've been too slippery! Mister Hart just didn't get a good grip on it for a moment."

"That's right!"
