The noon sunlight shone into the office through the window, and Tyler sat back lazily on his chair, seemingly taking a break.He opened his eyes when Vicky and Noah stepped through the door. "Take a seat."Vicky glanced around and did not see anyone else, so she asked, "Where's the robber?"He shot her a look and said, "Am I supposed to keep that 'thing' here in my office to breathe the same air as I do?"Tyler was a clean freak both physically and mentally, so Vicky did not say another word as she took a seat on the couch.She turned around and saw Noah standing frozen in place. "Noah, why don't you come and sit?""Oh, sure."Tyler glanced at Noah coldly before making an internal call. "Bring him in."A few minutes later, someone knocked on the door, and Harry walked in with a creepy-looking man. "Mister Hart, he's here."Tyler turned his attention from Noah to the man. "Are you the one who stole her bag?"The man glanced at Vicky and nodded. "That's right.""When and where

Vicky had never been in such a situation before and panted heavily in rage. She somehow managed to hold onto her composure and said, "You accuse me of hiring you. Why don't you tell them where I found you, and where's the money I paid you? How did we contact each other?"The man did not panic at all in response to her questions."You hired me near the southern outskirts, and we dealt with cash to avoid suspicion. You gave me a part of the payment on the day, and the money in your bag is the remainder of my payment. You said that no one would suspect a thing if we do that. As for the contact method... You said you didn't want to be traced, so we arranged to meet up on that day. You told me to wait near the Civil Administration office. As soon as you get out of the cafe, I am to grab your bag. Also..."The man continued confidently, "You didn't want others to find me, so you hired someone else to destroy the surveillance cameras around that area."Vicky opened her mouth to speak, but

...In the hospital ward, the scent of sanitizer filled the air, and as Tyler slowly opened his eyes, he spotted a blurred figure before him. He narrowed his eyes before finally realizing who the woman was."Miss Shaw?" he said weakly."Are you awake?" Vicky reached out to test his temperature before murmuring, "You're still burning up." She sat next to him and explained, "Mister Hart, your temperature reached thirty-nine Celsius, so you were unconscious for three days.""Why are you here, Miss Shaw?" he asked."I was the one who spotted you and sent you to the hospital." She studied the pale look on his face. "Mister Hart, as important as work may be, your health is crucial. The doctor said that you have an extremely fragile stomach and that you probably haven't been resting properly, which led to your cold worsening."His lashes fluttered as he studied her. "How did you know that I was sick, and how did you find me?"Vicky chuckled. "You called and said you wanted me to play t

Vicky looked at Tyler. "Mister Hart, should I notify your girlfriend?"He remained quiet for a few moments. "I don't have a girlfriend.""Um... What about friends? Should I contact them?""I don't have friends either."Vicky gaped at him and thought, 'Not even friends?'Realization dawned on her because she did not have many friends overseas as well, so it seemed normal for Tyler to be in a similar situation.She had taken care of him for three days and had others replace her in her part-time jobs, so she had not been able to earn much in the past few days.She needed money and would jump at any chance to earn as much as she could."Since you are awake, I...will get going, then.""Thank you for looking after me," he said hoarsely as he spotted the anxiety and worry on her face. "I will pay you the money for all medical fees and for the performance. I was supposed to go that afternoon."Tyler was a generous man, and the payment Vicky received for each performance she did for h

Vicky was slightly taken aback. "Of course not. We know each other, and you pay me to listen to me play, so you're technically my boss. It's normal to care for my boss' health."He nodded and did not say another word, feeling at ease that Vicky's act of kindness was nothing but an exchange for the money he had paid.The look in Vicky's eyes wavered for a moment as she studied Tyler.The reason she mentioned that was only one of the many reasons why she decided to care for him, and the main reason was that he reminded her of herself after she learned that his parents were alive but did not care about him.Deep down, Vicky had always been upset that she lost her parents at an early age, and at this point, she no longer remembered much about her parents.She would always imagine how life would be if her parents were still alive, but people simply had to move forward. She could not allow herself to dwell on the past.Knowing what to do was different from executing it, but she somehow
