Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27

Sebastian did not protest and simply said, “Alright, then. Rest well. I’ll go now.”

Right before leaving, he added, “Vicky, do you still have my number?”

Vicky thought back to her contact list and shook her head. “I don’t think so.”

Sure enough, Sebastian’s name was not on her contact list. The two exchanged numbers before he finally left.

Shortly after he left, Vicky received a text message from Sebastian and she clicked it open.

It was a photo taken outside the rooms of two figures, their backs facing the camera. Even so, she still managed to recognize them: Tyler and Sheila.

Underneath the photo was a caption where Sebastian wrote, [Vicky, Tyler is in Sheila’s room].

Vicky took one last glance at the photo before looking away inattentively.

The next day, someone knocked on Vicky’s door shortly after she had finished her breakfast, and Sheila

entered the room in her wheelchair.

“Miss Shaw, are you feeling better now?”

“Much better. Thank you for asking, Miss Young.”

Sheila turned to look at her manager. “Maggie, help me up.”

According to what Vicky knew about Tyler, he would have never gotten involved if it was not for Sheila, which meant that Cece was saved because of Sheila.

Despite how humble Sheila looked at the moment, Vicky realized something important; even her near–death experience was not as convincing to Tyler as a few words from Sheila.

‘What a woman! I’ve underestimated her,‘ Vicky thought. ‘Sasha might be a witless, reckless little wench, but

she wouldn’t get to be that way if she hasn’t been allowed by people around her.‘

Vicky remained quiet and because of that, Sheila stayed frozen in the bowing position.

Unable to stand it any longer, Maggie interfered. “Miss Shaw, Sheila has nothing to do with this. Her leg is injured. Don’t you think it’s too much for you to bully her like this?”

“That’s right. She has nothing to do with this, so why is she apologizing?” Vicky whispered gently before turning to stare at Maggie. “Besides… If you know that she’s injured, why did you take her around, Miss Perez? Am I bullying her, or are you making it look that way on purpose? Don’t tell me that you can’t even control an injured patient when you’re perfectly healthy.”
