Chapter 355


    Chapter 355


    The next morning, Vicky was woken up by the ringing of her phone. She fumbled for her phone and


    answered. “Hello…”


    “Still sleeping?” A cold, melodious voice came from the phone.


    “Tyler?” Vicky jolted awake and said, “ls…something wrong?”


    After a brief moment of silence, he said, ‘I texted you this morning and you didn’t reply, so I was worried


    about you.”


    ‘This morning?’ She repeated inwardly and nced at the time to find that it was already twelve at


    noon.


    When Vicky did not respond, Tyler added, “I called Nanny Paterson, and she said you’re not at home.


    Did you not go homest night?”


    She started panting heavily at the memories of the night before.


    “I… I stayed in the hospital with Jenniferst night, so I didn’t go home.”


    Tyler knew that Vicky had gone to spend nights with Jennifer in the hospital in his absence and did not


    suspect a word she said.


    “You’ve been up all night taking care of Jennifer again, haven’t you?” he asked.


    Vicky tried her best tob through her thoughts and muttered, “Yeah…”


    “Should I hire a private nurse for you?”


    Vicky’s heart sank as she blurted out, “It’s fine!” Realizing that she sounded hysterical, she added,


    “Jennifer is recovering. Cece and I are enough…


    Bringing a stranger in might make Jennifer ufortable.”


    Tyler did not insist. “Call me if you need anything.”


    “Sure.”


    Just as Tyler was about to hang up, she asked, “When are youing home?”


    “In about two weeks.”


    “I see…”


    “What’s wrong?”


    “Nothing.” Tears welled in her eyes, but she kept her tone cheerful. “Tell me when you’reing home.


    I want to pick you up from the airport.”


    “Sure.”


    The call ended, and Vicky curled up as her tears dropped onto the white sheets beneath her.


    She had meant to tell Tyler the truth, but she did not know where to start.


    She had lost consciousness from the stress the night before.


    Vicky pulled at her hair in agony and though the pain helped to sober her up, she still could not find a


    solution for her current crisis.

    The masked man was far too sharp for her to fool him with fake or unimportant documents.


    She went to wash up and headed to the hospital to check on Jennifer.


    Both Cece and Jennifer noticed how upset she was but dared not ask Vicky about it.


    Vicky stayed for a while, but the two soon told her to rest at home.


    Since she was indeed feeling exhausted, she did not insist on staying.


    As soon as she returned home, her phone rang, and she came close to throwing her phone across the


    room when she saw the disy on the screen.


    It was from the masked man.


    Vicky did not answer, nor did she reject the call until the call was automatically cut.


    A few minutester, her phone rang again and she red at the numbers dancing on her screen.


    For a moment, she desperately wished that she could stomp her phone into pieces, but suppressed her


    urge to do so.


    The call was automatically dropped once again, and an unread message popped onto the screen.


    There was no text and only a video. Without ying it, she knew what it was.
