Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1383

"You could've just called me over when you finished making the tea. You didn't need to bring it over," said Tyler as he took an empty teacup, filled it from the teapot, and poured himself a cup. The way he elegantly moved was a truly pleasing sight.

"As it happens, I'm a bit thirsty," he said, his voice clear as he finished the cup of tea in one gulp. He then made an internal call and instructed his secretary, "Come in and clean the office."

The secretary swiftly came in and tidied the broken fragments from the floor.

Not long after the secretary left, Tyler received a call. In about a minute, he said, "I'll be right over."

Hanging up, Tyler turned to Vicky, saying, "I need to step out for a moment. I'll be back soon."

Vicky nodded. "Alright."

Once Tyler left, Vicky started to feel bored as she sat alone in the office. It was then her gaze landed on the stack of documents on Tyler's desk.

When Harry entered earlier, he mentioned a plan for acquiring Johnson Corporation. Harvey's company was the only one she could associate with that name.

After a few seconds of hesitation, she walked over to the desk and absentmindedly opened the documents to glance through them.

Her eyes widened as it was indeed a plan for acquiring Johnson Corporation.

Although Vicky was not well-versed in business matters, frequent office visits with Tyler and her involvement in various meetings gave her a brief understanding of certain matters.

"Don't worry. They can't do anything to Jennifer here in Stoneford City," he reassured.

Her lashes fluttered as she added, "Jennifer said that it won't be easy for Anthony to disappear for a year or two to accept treatment even if she tells his parents about it. On top of that... Anthony has severed all ties with his family." She paused. "I heard that he did so for Lily's sake. Our guess is that she manipulated him into doing so to avoid things getting out of her control."

Tyler sat next to her and said, "If she is alert, that means that the hypnosis is no longer as effective."

Vicky was stunned and snapped her head around to look at him. "Are you saying that..."

"The fact that Jennifer caught Anthony getting hypnotized means that Anthony is slipping out of Lily's control, and she finds herself needing to hypnotize him more frequently."
