    Chapter 398


    The only times Vicky would call the masked man were when he threatened her into doing so.


    ‘I guess it’s not that strange. It’s not like he has his voice changer on all day long, just waiting for me to


    call,’ she thought. ‘He could be busy or upied.’


    She realized that this might be her way of finding the weakness of the man and went on to call two


    more times. Still, the man did not answer nor had he replied to her message.


    Soon, Tyler came over to look for her and saw Vicky staring at her phone thoughtfully. The look in his


    eyes darkened, and he walked over to her.” What are you looking at?”


    She put her phone away. “Nothing. Just got bored and started reading news articles.”


    “We can head back now.’


    “Okay.”


    Once they returned to the hotel, Vicky headed for a shower. By the time she returned to the bedroom,


    she noticed an unread message was on her screen.


    She unlocked her phone and realized that the masked man finally replied.


    [Why are you contacting me all of a sudden?]


    Vicky nced at the bathroom since Tyler had just gone in to shower.


    She replied. [Can’t I text you without a reason?]


    Time ticked by, but she received no response from the man.


    She took another nce at the bathroom door, and once she confirmed that the water was still running


    inside, she walked over to the window of the living room and made a call to the masked man.


    “Beep. Beep. Beep.”


    Again, the call was not answered, but Vicky caught onto the faint sound of something vibrating.


    It was close to eleven at night, and the room was so quiet that Vicky managed to hear even the most


    subtle noises.


    ‘Is it Tyler’s phone?’ she thought. ‘I remember that his phone is by the nightstand.’


    She walked toward the bedroom and nced inside to find Tyler’s phone resting quietly on the


    nightstand without any disy of an iing call on the screen.


    ‘If it’s not this phone, then…it could be the other one. Who’d call Tyler at this hour?’ she wondered. Her


    attention was instantly drawn, and she even forgot about the call she was making to the masked man.


    She stood still for a moment to determine the source of the sound before walking toward its direction,


    stopping in front of the hanging rack in the living room where Tyler hung his suit jacket.


    The sound of something vibrating wasing from the pocket, so she reached into the pocket and


    pulled out a vibrating phone to check who was calling.


    At the exact moment she pulled out the phone, the call was dropped automatically. Since the screen


    was still lit, she saw the notification of a missed call on the screen,beled [Her].


    ‘Her?’ she thought. ‘Who is that supposed to be?’


    Her breath caught in her throat, but the screen turned ck when she tried to take a closer look.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    She unlocked the phone with trembling fingers and was about to go into the main menu when arge


    shadow loomed over her.


    “Vicky Shaw, what are you doing?” a cold voice echoed above her head.
