Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144

[I wanted to surprise him, but I messed up... He probably hates me even more now. Anyway, happy birthday.]

The above was the only post on her social media during that time, and it was not hard to tell that she was walking on thin ice around Tyler at the time.

She scrolled through her social media account once again but did not see any mention of pianos.

Just as she felt confused, Tyler returned from his phone call and stared at her. "What do you want to do with Nikki?"

She looked up to meet his eyes. "What do you mean?"

"She tried to frame you and has to be punished,’ he said coldly.

She thought about it for a moment and said, "Have her leave Stoneford City, then.’

"Sure," he said without hesitation.

Vicky opened her mouth to speak but was not sure what to say. In the end, she muttered, "Was L.able to play the piano?"

He lowered his gaze expressionlessly. "Are you asking me about yourself?" i

"I don't remember anything,” she said.

After a few moments of silence, he said, 'You played once after we got married, and it sounded like hell."

"I know that." She studied his expression, trying to spot any change of emotion. "I'm just confused as to why I managed to play so well today."

She sank deep into thoughts but could not understand how she managed to play and since she was never one to trouble herself over problems that could not be resolved, she eventually gave up since knowing how to play piano would only work to her advantage.

Instead of dwelling on a problem she had no answer to, she handed her gift to Tyler. "Here is your birthday gift from me."

He opened the gift and found a beautifully engineered ball pen inside. His expression darkened as he stared at it, and she began to grow uneasy at his lack of response. "What is it? You don't like it?"

He looked up and scanned her face. "Why did you choose this as a gift?"

"I noticed that the pen you used to use is kind of old and decided that it'd be a good idea to buy you a new one."

She had been in and out of Hart Corporation frequently and noticed that the pen he had been using seemed to have been used for years.

Though she did not give it much thought when she bought the pen, she started to notice something odd from his reaction.
