Chapter 703
Like the calls Vicky made before, it was left unanswered.
It had been over 20 days since she started living with Tyler, and he never returned home this late.
She paced back and forth anxiously and wondered if Tyler had suffered the same fate as Mister George under
Jonathan's plot.
She had remained home to hide from Jonathan every day, but Tyler kept working.
Vicky had once asked Tyler if he was concerned that Jonathan might find him.
"He can locate you with ease because he knows you, but I'm a stranger to him, so it's not that easy for him to find
me," replied Tyler.

was not home.
Five minutes later, Vicky was about to make another call to him when she heard the door opening.
Tyler stumbled inside, and the scent of alcohol instantly filled the air..xo
Her eyes lit up, and she immediately hurried over. "Tyler, are you okay?"
He took off his shoes and looked up at her dazedly.
"Hm?" He was not as sharp as he usually was, and there was a delay in his response. "What?"
She studied him and whispered, "Have you been drinking?"
He pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "Yeah."
He fumbled toward the living room and came close to tripping, so Vicky hurried over to steady him. "Watch out."
He regained his balance. "Thank you."
Judging from his current state, Vicky had no choice but to help him back to his room.
Once he was on the bed, she said gently, "Lay down for a while. I'll make you some tea."
He scowled in discomfort and did not respond.
After making the tea and allowing it to cool, Vicky went into Tyler's room and came close to dropping the glass
when she saw Tyler taking his clothes off in bed.
She set the glass on the table and asked, "Tyler, what are you doing?"
He shot her a dazed look and slurred, "I'm going to shower."
Knowing that Tyler would probably faint in the shower if he headed into the bathroom in his state, she took a deep
breath and said, "Drink the tea first before you shower, okay? It

"To help prevent dizzy spells."
Tyler stilled and stared at her quietly.
'I guess he's behaving rather fine despite being drunk,' she commented inwardly before walking over to press the
glass against his lips. "Come on, open up."
Her voice was gentle and pleasant as she looked at him worriedly.
Though Tyler was drunk, he managed to keep a leveled mind to some extent as he would never place himself in
danger by becoming unconscious.
Her faint fragrance lingered in the air and filled his lungs, carrying an inexplicable charm.
The images of bathing her and seeing her out of the bathroom crossed his mind.
His deep gaze darkened, and he gulped hard unconsciously.
Feeling intoxicated by the moment, he could no longer restrain his feelings and moved to pin Vicky down beneath
him.
