Chapter 1381
After that, Tyler returned to the bedroom as usual to shower and sleep.
Vicky had already placed the medicine in the dinner, so there was no need to place anything in the milk. Still, she
served him a glass of milk out of fear that he would suspect something.
Tyler glanced at the glass and drank the milk in silence.
Having not seen anything odd with his expression, Vicky concluded that she might have overthought things.
The next day, Vicky suggested going to the company with Tyler, but he unusually declined.
"I have meetings all day," he said casually. "You've been busy with your studio lately, so you should work there. You

Vicky was a bit surprised. Whenever she proposed going to the studio, Tyler, while never refusing, would show a
slight reluctance. Vicky found it hard to believe that he had suddenly overcome it. "You...really don't want me to
accompany you to Hart Corporation?"
"Yeah." Tyler lightly stroked her hair. "You have your own work to attend to, so your life shouldn't revolve around me
all the time."
Tyler would have wanted her by his side 24 hours a day in the past and even transferred Hart Corporation's shares
to her name to achieve that goal.
His sudden considerate behavior confused her. "Do you mean that?" she asked.
Tyler gently held her in his arms, his broad and sturdy chest providing an indescribable sense of security.
"Yeah." He embraced her in a way that their expressions were hidden from each other. "I wouldn’t be happy if I
were idle all day either if I was you."
Vicky felt completely reassured and agreed, "Okay. I'll come to have lunch with you later."
Tyler kissed her forehead wordlessly in response.
At noon, just as Vicky was preparing to go have lunch with Tyler, she received a call from him.
"I'm having lunch with business partners, so you don't need to come over for now," he said.
Vicky was taken aback. "You... You're not having lunch with me?"
During this period, most of her time was spent with Tyler. When she worked at the studio, she would also travel to
Hart Corporation to have lunch with him. Since she did not accompany him to the office during the day, he would
always keep his lunchtime free for her, even if he had other commitments.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf he could not have her by his side all the time, he did not wish to miss lunch with her at the very least.
Vicky felt slightly disoriented.
"Yeah," he said in a deep voice. "I'll be home for dinner on time."
After hanging up, Vicky stared at the now-silent phone dazedly.
That afternoon, Tyler entered his office carrying a file.
The bright sunlight poured in through the clear glass windows, casting a carpet of golden light on the floor.
As he stepped into the office, he paused.
"Welcome back." A woman sitting on the couch raised her head upon hearing the sound.
Tyler's gaze deepened. "Why are you here?"
Vicky smiled at him. "It felt a bit strange that I couldn't see you at lunch...so I took the liberty to come."
