Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 787

Tyler stared into Vicky's eyes and gritted out, "Say that again, Vicky."

In a fit of rage, his eyes reddened as he began panting heavily. His fingers around her wrist were trembling ever so slightly, threatening to snap her wrist in half.

Her heart sank and wondered for a moment as to why she would risk enraging him after all that she had put up with in the past.

She knew that she would only suffer if she provoked Tyler. On top of that, she was still undertaking hypnosis in secret, so it was the worst time possible to be in a conflict with Tyler.

She pursed her lips and turned her head around in silence, but her silence did not appease his anger.

He lifted her chin and glared at her with rage burning in his eyes. "Who was that man, Vicky?"

"I don't know," she answered. "It was late, and I couldn't catch a taxi. That man happened to drive by, so I asked for his help to give me a lift."

"Didn't you say he is your lover?"

She closed her eyes. "You've been spending days and nights with Gloria yet confront me without so much as asking what happened first. I got mad, so I bluffed."

"Sometimes, words said in a fit of rage are the most truthful ones."

Her lashes fluttered as she stared at him. "You know who I've seen ever since I lost my memories. I've forgotten all about what happened before the accident, so there's no point for me to lie to you."

His glare remained sharp. "Why are you home so late, then?"

Her lips curled into a bitter smile. "It's not rare for me to get home at this time when I'm busy with work. I've received a few new orders lately... I might be slightly later than usual today, but I've only arrived home half an hour later than yesterday."

Though she did not say it out loud, she was clearly telling him that this was not the only night she returned home late, and that Tyler was merely unaware of it because he had been home even later recently.

The look in his eyes darkened. "Is that so?"
