Chapter 1489
‘Chris Leonheart?’ Aurora thought. ‘I know about Alex and Sebastian, but I haven’t heard of this guy before.’
Despite her questions, Aurora did not let it show on her face and glanced at Vicky. Upon noticing that Vicky was not appalled by Chris’ presence, Aurora smiled. “I’ll go get Vicky some clothes. Please look after her for the time being, Mister Leonheart.”
“Sure,” replied Chris said with a smile.
After Aurora left, Chris looked at Vicky and asked, “Vicky, how have you been?”
Vicky was slightly uncomfortable that Chris addressed her by her name.
When they first met, Chris always addressed her as1 President Shaw”. Since she had just started her studio at the time, she could not bring herself to get used to it and told him he could address her by her name. Still, Chris refused and switched to calling her “Ms. Shaw” instead. One could easily tell he was a man who kept to himself and respected boundaries.
Thus, it felt strange that he would suddenly start calling Vicky by her first name.
“I’m fine, thank you.” Her reply was polite, a mannerism that conveyed her reluctance to engage in an extended conversation with him.
Chris did not mind and instead continued, “Your husband is spending time with other women. Do you really not care at all?”
The polite smile on Vicky’s face faded.
She admired Chris as a person and felt regretful about the incident where Tyler had coerced him to leave. However, this did not mean she was ready to discuss such matters with Chris.
“Vicky…”
Chris was about to speak, but Vicky interrupted him. “It’s getting late. You should head back, Mister Leonheart.”
Vicky addressed him by his name only when he was her assistant. She referred to him as ‘Mister Leonheart’ to distance herself from him.
Chris narrowed his eyes and took out his phone to bring up a video before handing his phone to Vicky. “Vicky, take a look at this.”
Vicky did not want to watch, but the video had already started playing. A figure that she could recognize in her sleep appeared in the video.
As soon as she saw that figure, Vicky could not tear her gaze away.
Chris, sitting across from her, noticed her reaction right away. His gaze flickered.
The video was not long and showed a man and a woman entering a mansion together late at night. The man was tall and handsome, while the woman was beautiful and alluring.
Vicky did not recognize the woman but knew she was likely the skilled pianist Aurora mentioned.
The man beside the woman, though his face was not fully visible, was unmistakable from the suit he was wearing as Vicky designed it herself.
She felt as though she was suffocating at the sight and noted the timestamp on the video. It was indicated that this was taken last Monday night at nine o’clock.
The screen went black before Tyler and the pianist were seen leaving together in the video. Vicky checked the time again, and it was already midnight.
Two hours had passed, and they had been alone together in the same room.
At this moment, Chris’ voice reached her ears again.” Recently, he’s been meeting this woman late at night quite frequently, and they stayed until midnight most of the time.”
Vicky’s gaze shifted from the video to Chris’ face. As their eyes met, a subtle glint flashed in Chris’ eyes. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“Did you come here just to show me this?” she asked.
