Semua Bab Loving You In Secret: Bab 1461 - Bab 1470

Noah's reaction was equally swift. He sidestepped, narrowly avoiding the strike.Noah's father had served in the military for years and disliked those who lacked strength. Despite Noah's preference for the arts and his usual display of gentility, he was trained in combat skills and remained unscathed so far despite all the things that happened in his life.However, the opponent's skills seemed to surpass his.Another knife was sent at a tricky angle, aiming directly for a vital organ.Noah, who evaded the first attack, had no time to adjust his posture. Just as the knife was about to pierce into his body, the cat in his arms emitted another piercing scream.In a flash, the cat pounced toward the assailant, who evaded the attack. The knife directed at Noah deviated slightly, leaving a streak of blood on the black fur of the catThe blade flew past Noah with a tint of blood on the blade.Noah was momentarily stunned, his eyes reddening with distress. "Ruby!"The black cat had sav

Vicky did not know what to say.After a few moments of silence, she said gently, "Untie me first."Vicky's reluctance to answer his question sounded like an affirmation to Tyler. Instead of letting her go, he pulled her closely into his embrace and became agitated. "No! I won't let you leave me."Sensing something was wrong with his tone, she frowned in concern and said, "Tyler..."Before she could say another word, Tyler lowered his head and sealed her lips with a kiss....In the bathroom, Tyler held Vicky and gently lowered her into the comfortably warm bathwater. Vicky kept her gaze lowered, her emotions hidden from view.Tyler opened his mouth to speak a couple of times but ultimately remained silent.His movements were cautious and hesitant with the weight of knowing he had once again forced himself on Vicky.When his fingers made contact with her body, Vicky reflexively flinched for an instant, but she did not continue to shy away.Steam wafted through the bathroom, bl

Tyler gazed longingly at Vicky and fell into silence.Tension filled the air and loomed over the two."One year," Tyler finally spoke. "Give me one year. If I haven't recovered by then, I'll let you go."Vicky smirked. "Tyler, haven't you stalled enough? It's a year now, but when that time comes, you won't be willing to let go."Tyler's frustration rose. "Do you have to divorce me?""You want me to wait for a year? Sure. Once I give you my word, I'll definitely wait. Even if we're divorced by then, I won't go back on my word." Vicky's tone remained indifferent. "After one year, I'll still need to observe you for a while. What if you haven't truly recovered and simply lied to me about being cured, only to stall again? What would I do then? Of course, Mister Hart, with your immense power and influence, I won't have any means to divorce you if you won't agree to it. Haven't you done that before?" she said mercilessly.Forcibly seizing something was only necessary when the other part

"I assume you remember what you did to keep me around in the past. It's been so many years now, yet you haven't changed. Moreover, our marriage was nothing but the result of your schemes. Logically speaking, you should've hated me at that moment—despised me even. It wouldn't surprise me if you wanted to torture me as revenge, yet you chose to marry me. I then suspected you were stuck in the past. You can't stand that I left you, and it hurt your pride. Your desire for conquest is at play, and you can't accept this outcome."Vicky's words flowed calmly. "I know that obsessive-compulsive disorder is also a form of mental illness. Perhaps you won't be so fixated on me once you recover. While you're still ill, it might be impossible to get a divorce. However, once you're hypnotized and forget about me, you should be able to accept the divorce."They were not that far from each other, yet Tyler felt so distant from her."Everything I've done for you is all just my obsessive-compulsive di

'Tyler remembers me without resorting to any aids?' thought Vicky, feeling overwhelmed by various emotions.Vicky put his phone back where it belonged before Tyler finished his shower....The bar's lights flickered wildly, accompanied by booming music that reverberated in the ears.Vicky leaned against the couch in her booth, holding a glass of wine.She absentmindedly sipped on it while watching the performances on the stage.Sitting opposite Vicky, Jennifer and Cece exchanged glances and read the concern in each other's eyes."Vicky, it's getting late. Aren't you going back?" Jennifer whispered gingerly.Vicky's gaze shifted slightly, and she glanced at the time on her phone. "It's only ten..." she murmured. "It's still early. Let's stay a bit longer."As soon as she spoke, Vicky's phone buzzed.Seeing the incoming call number on the screen, Vicky averted her gaze indifferently and ignored it.The phone rang for a long time before the call was automatically disconnected.
