Chapter 328
Vicky walked out with her head low, looking paler than before her bath. She even forgot to dry her hair, so water was dripping from her whole head.
Tyler walked over. “What took you so long?”
She was so absorbed in her thoughts that she did not notice him until she heard his voice.
Startled, she paled even further.
“W-What?” Her eyes darted around in panic. 1
He studied the look on her face and asked, “Why are you so pale? Are you feeling unwell?”
He reached out to test her temperature, but she instinctively moved away from his touch. He froze.
Not daring to meet his eyes, she muttered, “I’m fine. I guess…I’m just too tired and need some rest.”
He withdrew his hand. “You’ve been in Lovian for over a week and have been in the place for the entire day. It’s normal for you to be tired.’ He glanced at her and said, “Your hair is still wet. I’ll get the hair dryer. Dry your hair before going to sleep.’
Before Vicky had the chance to stop him, Tyler had gone into the bathroom and returned with the hair dryer.
Vicky was about to reach out for it when he moved away.
She glanced at him in confusion, and to this, Tyler said, “I’ll dry your hair for you, okay?*
She froze. “You want to dry my hair for me?”
From what she remembered, Tyler never dried her hair, even when they were close. 1
“Yes,’ he said affectionately.
While she was processing the information, Tyler plugged the hair dryer in and sat her on the couch. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“You’re tired, right? You can sleep once your hair is dried.”
Vicky opened her mouth to speak but decided against it in the end and allowed Tyler to dry her hair.
She thought that a man of Tyler’s status would be used to being served, so she was surprised when he seemed familiar with drying her hair as though he had done it countless times before. 1
She looked into the mirror at the man who was drying her hair, her heart twitching in pain.
Once her hair was completely dried, Tyler said, ‘Alright. You should go to rest.”
She looked up at him. “What about you?”
“I need to shower.’
She relaxed slightly. “Okay. I’ll go to sleep first.’
“Sure.”
Worried that all the lights would prevent her from falling asleep, Tyler turned off all the lights except for the one by the nightstand before heading into the bathroom.
The light was dim, and she used to leave the light on the nightstand turned on when she used to wait for him to get home. However, she felt as though she was suffocating at this very moment.
She closed her eyes, and despite how exhausted she felt, she could not fall asleep.
Tyler soon returned to the room, and Vicky tensed once again when he got in bed.
