Chapter 1308
After raising her arm and stopping herself several times, Vicky returned to her room.
The next day, Vicky came downstairs for breakfast as usual.
After finishing her meal, she picked up her bag to leave.
However, while changing her shoes, she noticed a pair of neatly arranged black leather shoes at the entrance and
realized that Tyler might still be in the mansion.
She turned to the maid who was cleaning the living room and asked, "Has Tyler left?"
The maid usually met Tyler when she came over to prepare breakfast, but he was nowhere to be seen that day. "I
haven't seen Mister Hart today. He should still be here," she said truthfully.

'Is he so hungover that he can't get up?' she thought bitterly.
She ordered herself not to dwell on it and went to the studio to start work.
At noon, Vicky, Cece, and Jennifer went to the restaurant together for lunch. As they ate, they chatted about
various topics.
"Vicky, did Aurora contact you today?" Cece asked.
"No. Why?" Vicky inquired.
Cece and Jennifer awkwardly exchanged glances.
Jennifer recounted what happened after Vicky left yesterday. "After you and Harvey left, we all went to the karaoke
room. Noah and Aurora both love cats and had a lot to talk about, so they added each other as friends on social
media. After becoming friends, Noah realized that the cat Aurora found was the one he lost. He was certain that
Aurora was a cat thief, and they got into a heated argument.”
Vicky raised an eyebrow. "Is it really the same cat? Black cats look quite similar, so can he be mistaken?"
"I said the same thing at the time, but Noah was sure that he wouldn't mistake his own cat. Aurora got angry when
she heard that and thought Noah was a cat-abusing pervert.
When she found the cat, it had many wounds and a broken hind leg. The vet said it had been subjected to abuse.
Aurora believed that the cat ran away because it couldn't bear the mistreatment. She thought a grown man like
Noah must've had some malicious intent for keeping so many cats."
Noah had more than one cat, and he was also a cat enthusiast who posted photos of his cats on social media,
though not as frequently as Aurora.

Jennifer sighed. "Noah insisted that Aurora stole his cat and threatened to report her to the police. Aurora, in turn,
said she'd expose Noah as a cat-abusing pervert on social media..."
The birthday banquet ended with a quarrel between the two.
Despite this, neither Aurora nor Noah called Vicky as they could tell Vicky was not feeling her best and did not want
to trouble her.
Amused, Vicky said, Noah and Aurora aren't that kind of people. It's probably a misunderstanding. I will call them
later and ask them out so that they can talk it out."
The three chatted when suddenly, Vicky's phone rang.
The smile on her face faded when she saw Harry's name on the screen, and she suddenly realized that she was
irritated over Tyler precisely because Harry kept updating her about what Tyler was doing.
Instead of answering the call, she hung up without hesitation.
However, a minute later, Harry called again.
Frustrated, Vicky turned her phone off.
"Vicky, who was that?" Cece asked.
