The Beginning Of All Sins

Maisy was still mad. “I don’t want to hear about this. I don’t know what’s going on with your business. Couldn’t you have just made the Coxes pay you back without making it a big deal?”

After saying that, she stood up and left. She looked upset and not ready to forgive.

Olivia went upstairs, but she was quite curious about the argument downstairs. She sneaked up to the door to listen in. She heard their chat, but right after she sensed Maisy storm out of the living room, she went back to her room. She didn’t dare peek again.

Everything went quiet, and Ana was still there.

“Your dad would have handled this differently, Tyler. He would have thought about your grandma’s feelings.”

Tyler wasn’t being cold to her this time. He agreed, “Yeah, I could have handled it better.

No one could tell if he was just saying that to end the conversation.

Ana knew Tyler didn’t really respect her opinion, so she told him, “Well, it’s done now. You should go make her feel better.”

She left the living room too after saying that.

Later, Tyler went upstairs. Olivia was pretending to be asleep, facing away from him.

But Tyler knew she was awake with just one look. He stopped by the bed for a bit. “You’re still up?”

Realizing her act didn’t work, she opened her eyes. “Mm–hmm.”

He glanced at her. “Try to sleep, okay?”

She just nodded, and he went off to the bathroom.

Just as Tyler reached the bathroom door, Olivia asked, “Tyler, is Caleb’s father–in–law… Gina’s dad?”

He answered without turning around, “That’s in the past. It has nothing to do with you.”

Olivia held the blanket tighter and nodded. “Okay.”

“Sleep now,” he said and went into the bathroom.

The next day, Maisy found out about Olivia’s threatened miscarriage in Seta City.

How could she stay mad at Tyler now? She visited Olivia early in the morning and held her hand. “You’ve been through a lot, my dear. I wouldn’t have let you go with Tyler if I knew this would happen.”

Just then, Ana Ana came over and said, “Babies can be very delicate in the first few months, Mom. The doctor says everything is fine now. She just needs to rest.”

Although she said that, she also told Olivia, “You need to stay in bed and listen to the doctor carefully.”

Olivia nodded. “I will.”

Ana then ordered the maids to make some soup. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Olivia was tired of lying in bed all morning. She felt awful.

Tyler was working from home today. He dropped by her room when it was almost lunchtime.

“Do you want to eat here or downstairs?” he asked.
