Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1381

After that, Tyler returned to the bedroom as usual to shower and sleep.

Vicky had already placed the medicine in the dinner, so there was no need to place anything in the milk. Still, she served him a glass of milk out of fear that he would suspect something.

Tyler glanced at the glass and drank the milk in silence.

Having not seen anything odd with his expression, Vicky concluded that she might have overthought things.

...

The next day, Vicky suggested going to the company with Tyler, but he unusually declined.

"I have meetings all day," he said casually. "You've been busy with your studio lately, so you should work there. You don't need to come just to keep me company."

Vicky was a bit surprised. Whenever she proposed going to the studio, Tyler, while never refusing, would show a slight reluctance. Vicky found it hard to believe that he had suddenly overcome it. "You...really don't want me to accompany you to Hart Corporation?"

"Yeah." Tyler lightly stroked her hair. "You have your own work to attend to, so your life shouldn't revolve around me all the time."

Tyler would have wanted her by his side 24 hours a day in the past and even transferred Hart Corporation's shares to her name to achieve that goal.

His sudden considerate behavior confused her. "Do you mean that?" she asked.

Tyler gently held her in his arms, his broad and sturdy chest providing an indescribable sense of security.

"Yeah." He embraced her in a way that their expressions were hidden from each other. "I wouldn't be happy if I were idle all day either if I was you."

Vicky felt completely reassured and agreed, "Okay. I'll come to have lunch with you later."

Tyler kissed her forehead wordlessly in response.

...

That afternoon, Tyler entered his office carrying a file.

The bright sunlight poured in through the clear glass windows, casting a carpet of golden light on the floor.

As he stepped into the office, he paused.

"Welcome back." A woman sitting on the couch raised her head upon hearing the sound.

Tyler's gaze deepened. "Why are you here?"

Vicky smiled at him. "It felt a bit strange that I couldn't see you at lunch...so I took the liberty to come."
