Chapter 966
Just as Vicky was about to fall, a long arm reached over to grab her, and she fell into a warm embrace.
An alluring fragrance filled her nose and she fell into a dazed state.
Aurora spoke up, "Miss Shaw, you were just claiming that you weren't waiting for Tyler, and now you're falling into
his arms on purpose? What's the meaning of this?"
Vicky snapped out of it and realized that she had fallen into Tyler's arms.
She hastily shoved him away and backed away to calm herself. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to."
Aurora never meant for this to happen and only felt that Vicky was being pretentious by using the fall as an
opportunity. "Your way of capturing men's attention sure is special, Miss Shaw," Aurora said sarcastically.
Vicky wanted to argue but knew that her existence itself would be considered wrong in the eyes of those who
despised her. Tired of explaining herself, Vicky said, "Why aren't you leaving, then? Are you waiting here for

Aurora's expression froze, and she instinctively held onto Tyler's arm. "Tyler, it's getting late. Let's go."
Tyler glanced at her and hummed in response.
The two quickly disappeared from Vicky's view.
Apart from the brief moment he helped her earlier, Tyler did not even cast a single glance at her way, treating her
with indifference as if she were a stranger. Vicky felt a hint of pain in her heart.
Just then, the man who had finished his phone call returned.
He looked around and asked, "Vicky, where are Cece and Jennifer?"
"They had something to attend to, so they went back earlier."
The man fixed his gaze on Vicky's expression. "Is something wrong? You don't look well."
"It's nothing. It's probably just a bit cold."
Upon hearing Vicky's words, a glimmer appeared in the man's eyes, and he took off his suit jacket. "There was an
issue at the company. Sorry to have kept you waiting. Cover yourself with this for now, so you don't catch a cold."
Vicky did not actually feel cold and was only using it as an excuse, so she quickly said, "Thank you, but it's not
necessary..."
Before she could finish, the man had already draped the jacket over her shoulders.
Vicky was slightly taken aback as she looked into the man's eyes, filled with a sense of astonishment.
The man noticed Vicky's surprise and asked with a smile," What's wrong? Are you surprised that I lent you my
jacket?"
Vicky thought for a moment and replied honestly, "That's not it. I just... Sir, you don't seem like the assertive type."
He had always respected her, making their interactions effortless. Vicky felt that the man before her was the kind
of person who would even ask for permission before kissing someone.
The man smiled and said, "Is it considered assertive to lend you a jacket?"
"That's not what I meant, but..."

gentle as a spring breeze. "However, a man should be decisive when necessary. You're obviously feeling cold, and if
I simply followed your wishes and you end up falling sick, that would be my fault."
The man spoke with great tact, never making Vicky feel oppressed or annoyed. Besides, it was just a jacket, so
there was no need to argue about it further.
"Thank you," Vicky said, "I'll return it to you tomorrow after it's cleaned."
The man nodded and said, "Let's go. I'll send you home."
The night was serene, and the scenery along the road flew by in front of Vicky's eyes.
"Vicky," the man spoke up suddenly.
Vicky turned to look at him. "Yes?"
He asked, "Are you really not planning to seek revenge against Tyler for how he treated you?"
Vicky remained silent for a moment before answering," When will vengeance end if I stir things up again? Besides, I
owe him just as much. With this, everything is now settled. It's not a bad thing."
