Loving You In Secret (Vicky and Tyler) novel Chapter 1714

The white shirt clung to Tyler's body, soaked through by the scalding water. The heat still lingered, and one could distinctly feel the heat emanating from his clothing.

As Vicky was about to speak, a low, hoarse voice reached her ears. "Did you get burned?"

Jennifer snapped out of her shock and nervously approached. "Vicky, are you alright?"

She was aware of Vicky's pregnancy. Even if the boiling water had only landed on her body, the high temperature alone could pose a risk to the baby's well-being.

"I'm fine," Vicky replied, her complexion pale but her expression composed. "He's been burned. Jennifer, please help us get to the hospital."

Jennifer nodded with a grave expression.

At this moment, no one had the luxury of paying any attention to Bella as getting to the hospital was the top priority. The three of them hurriedly left the private room, not sparing another glance at Bella.

...

Inside the car, Vicky sat with Tyler in the back seat. Due to his back injury, he could not sit upright.

Jennifer dared not to drive too fast as she wanted to avoid any jolts on the road.

Although Vicky appeared calm, her body was tense, and her fingers were curled.

She stared out the window in silence when a hand gently moved to separate her tightly clenched fingers.

Vicky turned to look at Tyler.

"I'm fine," he calmly spoke, his eyes bright under the streetlamps' dappled light. "Don't worry."

Despite his injuries, Tyler's mood appeared surprisingly stable.
