Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 372

"What's wrong?" Tyler looked worried. "Are you not feeling well?"

Vicky was not feeling ill. She was just… Her heart and mind were a mess, and she no longer had the courage to tell the truth.

"I'm…fine," she muttered.

"Head upstairs. I'll go get some cream to treat those swollen lips," Tyler said.

"Alright…" she replied.

Not long later, Tyler entered the room with a cream, and he spotted Vicky sitting on the sofa, daydreaming.

He approached her and said, "Let me apply it for you."

With the medical-grade cotton bud, he started to sterilize the wound on her lip and applied the cream. The moment he was serious, his face looked extremely stern, and the vibe he presented was rather intimidating.

A refreshing sensation graced Vicky's lips, and it soothed the pain and dryness of her lip injury.

Suddenly, her tears started to spill without any warning. Tyler was still concentrating on applying the cream to her lips by then.

Stunned when the cold tears dropped on the back of his hand, he looked at her.

Her tears slowly fell. Obviously, the tears were not hot or cold, but they burned his heart like they were as hot as the heated oil.

He stopped what he was doing.

Before he could ask anything, Vicky threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

"Why are you so good to me?" she asked when, in fact, she was asking herself that. "Why?"

If he was acting like before and only kept this marriage because he had to, was she able to tell the truth so freely?

As she wrapped her hands around his neck, she pressed her lips against his. Tyler did not expect that from her. After a few seconds of being caught off-guard, he quickly took over the control.

The cream spread across his lips, but neither of them was bothered by it.

The morning light shone in the room and created a warm gold glow. His handsome face looked godly in Vicky's eyes.

…

The bathroom door opened. Tyler simply put on a bathrobe and walked out. He glanced around and saw Vicky was thinking deeply.

His eyes darkened.

"What's in your mind?" he spoke, his voice low yet alluringly smoky.
