Chapter 919
Vicky’s lips moved as she attempted to speak, but she simply could bring herself to say words against her mind.
Tyler was not one who enjoyed explaining himself, and upon seeing Vicky fall into silence, he furrowed his brow.
“I didn’t intentionally hide anything from you.It’s just that whenever I had something come up, you never asked,” he
reluctantly explained.
He gazed silently into Vicky’s eyes, his magnetic black eyes I — filled with her presence.
“To me, she’s no different from any ordinary business partner.Since there’s no difference, why should I make her an
exception?” Vicky understood Tyler’s point.
In his perspective, Aria was merely an ordinary business partner, and whether she was a man or a woman,
beautiful or ugly, made no difference whatsoever.
He did not care about her, nor did he consider her to be anything special in his heart, so he did not see the reason
in mentioning her to Vicky as by doing so, he would be making Aria a special case.Some of the gloom in Vicky’s
heart was dispersed as she accepted his explanation.

“It seemed like you two were close.”
“When we entered the restaurant, she stumbled and happened to grab onto me.She just hadn’t let go by the time
we saw you inside.”
“Really?”
“If you don’t believe me, I can have someone send in the surveillance footage.” Tyler’s explanation finally eased
Vicky’s heart.
“I’ll trust you this time.”
Tyler corrected her, “It’s not about trusting me once; it’s about always trusting me.”
Vicky relaxed and deliberately said, “I’ll have to see your performance before deciding if I’m going to believe you,
though.”

“Is that so?”

and eager.
“It seems that I haven’t had time to impress you lately and you’re unsatisfied.”
Vicky quickly realized the underlying meaning in Tyler’s tone, and her face grew pink.
“Tyler, quit the nonsense…Mmph!”
Vicky’s voice was instantly swallowed by his kiss.
With that, the incident came to an end.
Tyler remained busy as usual, but Vicky gradually grew more at ease and felt less unsettled.
One day, Cece suddenly said to Vicky in a mysterious tone, “Vicky, in another ten minutes, Jennifer will arrive at the
studio.”
Vicky was taken aback but soon exclaimed with delight, “Jennifer is back in Stoneford City?! When did she come
back?”
“Hehe! She arrived this morning.”
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier? We should’ve gone to the airport to pick her up.”
“Jennifer wanted to surprise you, so she didn’t want me to say anything in advance.”

she couldn’t wait and started working right away.She has a meeting with a client who wants to see our studio right
now, so she’s bringing the client along…She said that it’s a really wealthy client!”
Before meeting Vicky, Jennifer was merely a noble lady who had too much free time on her hand.She was not at all
interested in business, and her family was so wealthy that she had nothing much to do apart from tending to
flowers.
When a person did not know what to do with their time, they would start looking for something to focus on, and for
Jennifer, she started fantasizing about her love life.
Ever since she started working, she stopped focusing on Anthony and cast him aside without a care about what he
and Lily would do.
As they spoke, the doorbell rang.
“That must be Jennifer with our client! I’ll open the door,” Cece said.
Some clients would prefer to see where the designers work, and it was hardly unusual.
Vicky walked to the entrance to greet Jennifer and the client as well.
The door opened, and as expected, Jennifer and the client she found stood outside.
Vicky was about to welcome them, only to freeze when she had a clearer look at the client’s face
