Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1354

Vicky was stunned. "Tyler?"

"Yeah. Mister Hart came upstairs looking for you because you wouldn't answer your phone. When he found out you weren't in the office, he thought something bad happened to you and panicked!" blurted Cece. "I've never seen him that anxious before... Mister Hart, I managed to call Vicky. Do you want to talk to her?"

Cece called Tyler over. The phone was handed to Tyler, and Vicky could hear him panting heavily.

"Where are you right now?" he asked.

"I'm downstairs."

"Why didn't you pick up the phone?"

"I was about to enter the elevator, but it was broken, so I took the stairs. There's no signal in the stairway, so..." She trailed off.

In just a few short sentences, Tyler had a general idea of what happened. "Wait for me downstairs," he blurted before ending the call.

Vicky stood quietly at the entrance of the building, not daring to wander anymore.

A few minutes later, a tall and slender figure emerged from the building. He swiftly spotted Vicky waiting not far away. His footsteps paused for a moment before he resumed his confident stride toward her.

Vicky also noticed him and hurriedly approached. Before she could say anything, he pulled her into a tight hug.

The erratic thumping of his heart and his heavy, rapid breaths reached her ears. Guilt-ridden, Vicky muttered, "I'm sorry for making you worry."

When she left the office, she texted Tyler that she was going downstairs. However, she forgot to let him know that she was taking the stairs.

Jennifer remained silent for a while.

Cece turned to her in surprise and found Jennifer gazing thoughtfully out of the window.

"Jennifer?"

Jennifer replied, "I don't think so."

Cece raised an eyebrow. "Really?"

Jennifer smiled. "I just think Tyler has always cared about Vicky, but he managed to keep it hidden until now."
