Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 889

Chapter 889

Tyler scowled. "Don't wear any backless dress. I don't like it."

"It's fine. I like it." "No."

Vicky stared into his eyes. "And if I insist on wearing one?"

Tyler looked at her unblinkingly for a while before saying, "It looks like we won't be attending the gathering after all."

She froze. "What do you mean?"

He narrowed his eyes dangerously and brushed his lips against her cheek. "Are you sure you want to seduce me again, Vicky?"

Realization finally dawned on Vicky. "You're the one who can't control yourself, yet you blame it all on me," she muttered. "You accuse me of seducing you, then say that I don't look good in backless dresses..."

"I never said you don't look good in one," Tyler said.

Vicky wanted to argue but instantly realized that he was right.

It was already rude of them to be late to a family gathering, and it would be atrocious for them to not show up at all.

"Fine. I won't wear a backless dress." Vicky caved. "Just get off of me."

Instead of getting up, Tyler requested, "I'll pick what you wear."

Vicky thought that he was offering to help out of guilt for tearing her dress apart, so she nodded. "Sure."

Tyler went into the closet, and after searching for a long while, he finally picked something.

When Vicky saw the clothes he picked, she blurted out," Tyler, have you gone mad? Why are you taking my pajamas out?"

"It suits you."

Everything from clothes, shoes, and handbags, to the jewelry adorning their bodies was put on display for comparison.

Anything that could be seen with eyes was considered a flaunt of one's status. Hence, attending such an occasion in sportswear would not only subject Vicky to ridicule, but people would also consider her mad.

"No." Vicky refused to wear such hideous attire to the family banquet, no matter what.

The two of them reached an impasse.

In the end, they compromised and chose a moderately fashionable and casual outfit that would not be too eyecatching at the banquet, yet still avoided making Vicky look out of place.

The family banquet was held at Old Mister Hart's traditional mansion, a place Vicky had been to before.

When they arrived at the venue, everyone was already seated and engaged in conversations.

As soon as they saw Tyler and Vicky enter, the chatter abruptly ceased, and the atmosphere became unnaturally quiet.
