Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1520

Vicky did not know what happened between Jennifer and Anthony, but she assumed Lily must have had something to do with it.

Since Anthony came with a gift, Vicky could not chase him out. Thus, she invited him in.

The restaurant was reserved, and everyone was chatting and laughing in the hall.

As soon as he entered, Anthony walked over to Jennifer. "Jennifer."

Jennifer was about to play with the cat Noah was holding when she heard Anthony's voice.

"Do you like cats? How about I buy you one?"

Jennifer turned around, and her expression hardened. "It's fine. I like Noah's cat."

Anthony shot Noah a sidelong glance upon hearing her words.

Noah felt a chill run down his spine. It was a familiar yet dangerous sensation that enveloped him.

He had not forgotten how Anthony tarnished his reputation when he posed as Jennifer's boyfriend.

'Good god. Just as Tyler left, here came Anthony. Fate is truly cruel to me!' he whined inwardly.

Noah did not want to fall victim to Anthony's schemes, so he swiftly hooked his arm around Aurora's shoulder.

"Darling, let me hug Ruby," he said as he ignored Anthony and reached out to hold the cat in Aurora's arms.

Aurora was stunned for a few seconds. "Who's your darling? Noah, have you lost your mind?"

Noah winked and made exaggerated facial expressions at Aurora, who shivered in response. "Are you having a stroke?"

Harvey, who was nearby, cleared his throat.

At the entrance of the apartment building, Vicky turned to Harvey. "Thank you for dropping me home. It's getting late, so I won't invite you up. Take care on your way back."

Harvey smiled and nodded.

...

Back at her home, Vicky washed away the smell of alcohol. Her head still buzzed, but her thoughts were clear.

After her shower, she turned on the television. The sound dispelled the silence in the room.

Vicky poured herself a glass of water, intending to drink it, when she heard a breaking news bulletin on the TV.

"Breaking news! Just an hour ago, the Hart family released a major announcement. Mister Tyler Hart and Miss Avery Yeager have successfully held their engagement ceremony today..."

Vicky's hand trembled. The glass slipped from her grasp, crashing to the floor and shattering into pieces.
