Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 178

Chapter 178

Anger burned the last rational thought in Sheila's mind when she saw Vicky acting innocent, as if she did not know anything.

She raised her hand and tried to slap Vicky again, but her hand was caught mid-swing.

A deep melodious voice like the sound from a cello rang, "Miss, either you talk nicely or you fight. Don't just try to slap someone while you're talking. It's spiteful for you to do that."

Sheila was so distracted by Vicky that she never realized there was a man beside Vicky. As she heard the voice, she raised her head.

The man looked extremely handsome. His almond-shaped eyes were mesmerizing. His thin lips curled into a smile as his hands were in his pockets. While he stood relaxedly, there was something noble about him that people were slightly intimidated by.

Sheila frowned and said sarcastically, "Hi. It's better that you don't act like those annoying women and stay out of the way like a man."

Instead of being provoked, Mister Kirby smiled faintly. "I'd never butt in if you girls are in an argument or a fight, but I can never stand to see someone attacking another."

He paused for a while and scoffed, "Hmm... Maybe I'm a hero to the good guys and an annoying person to the villain. Oh well, I can't help it when I'm such a righteous person."

Sheila tried to pull her hand out. It seemed like the man in front of her did not use a lot of strength to hold her hand. Albeit, Sheila felt like her hand was clamped down, and she had trouble shaking off his hand.

She looked even more terrible.

"Let go of me!" she snarled, gritting her teeth.

Mister Kirby smiled. "As long as you promise you won't slap her anymore, I'll let go."

Sheila, still infuriated, could not possibly make such a promise. Thus, she tried to pull her wrist off of Mister Kirby's hand. Despite using all of her strength, Mister Kirby did not bulge at all. Instead, he was watching her amusingly like he was watching a movie.

At this point, Sheila had calmed down, though the intensity of her voice remained. "They’re trying to save Tyler now. I must be out of my mind to be wasting so much time with an incompetent woman like you!"

She ignored Vicky and got into the elevator.

Sheila vanished from view when the elevator door closed.

Vicky was rooted on the spot. The cool light shone on her and pulled her shadow long, making her body look slim and weak.

"Vicky."

On the way to the hospital, Mister Kirby started to call her by her name instead of 'Miss Shaw'.

Mister Kirby saved her, and she thus viewed him as her friend.
