After serving Vicky food, Tyler did not leave and sat across the table to dine with her.
She thought he did not understand anything when he knew exactly what she meant.
After lunch, Tyler left for work.
...
For the next few days, Tyler was absorbed by work and would return home late at night. Still, he would prepare all meals for Vicky and would often return home before noon to cook lunch for her before heading out again, which made Vicky feel extremely guilty.
A week went by, and Vicky's ankle recovered.
According to what Mister Geoge planned, the academy should have resolved the conflict with Jonathan within a week, but Vicky had not received any update from anyone at this point.
Confused, she tried contacting Mister George, but he did not answer her calls or text messages.
Not daring to go outside, Vicky called Gloria.
"Vicky?" Gloria answered.
"Gloria, what's going on with the academy?" Vicky cut to the chase. "I've been trying to get hold of Mister George, but I can't reach him."
After a long silence, Gloria said, "Mister George ran into a car accident two days ago, and he's still unconscious in the ICU."
"Car accident?" Realization dawned on her. "C—Can it be that Jonathan..."
"We haven't found whoever did this, so we don't know who's pulling the strings, but Mister George is one of the members responsible for negotiating terms with Jonathan's family. His accident has definitely put a stop to the process. We can't proceed until he wakes up."
Unfortunately, no one knew when Mister George would regain consciousness.
