Though she was home late, Tyler rarely returned home before midnight as of late, too.

After changing into her slippers, she was about to head upstairs when she caught a faint scent of tobacco from the living room.

She looked over and saw a red dot flashing in the darkness.

Her heart threatened to leap out of her chest, and she came close to screaming.

After taking a few deep breaths, she calmed herself and turned on the lights in the living room.

Snap! The chandelier above her lit up in blinding light, and she frowned in discomfort.

After a while, she got used to the light and asked, “Tyler, what are you doing here?”

The man stood before the balcony, his towering figure casting a long shadow over the wall.

From where she was standing, she could only see the side of his face.

He held a cigarette between his fingers absentmindedly; white smoke curled and rose around him, blurring his face.

Tyler did not turn around. “Why are you home so late?”

“Why are you home so early?” Vicky retorted.

Tyler turned to shoot her a half-smile. “Had I not come home early, I wouldn’t have found out that you’re dating another man.”

“I’m dating a man?” Amused, Vicky mocked, “Tyler, how can you function with such double standards? Have you taken a day off from caring for Gloria and decided to meddle with my business? Tyler Hart, you are exhausting.”

With that, Vicky turned and went upstairs.
