The Beginning Of All Sins

After Olivia was taken upstairs, she felt peaceful for a short time before her smile disappeared as she sat in her room.

Alisa noticed her mood change and offered, “Let me help you get into bed.”

Olivia agreed with a simple “Okay.”

Just as Alisa was about to assist her, several other maids appeared at the door carrying gifts. Olivia looked over and saw that the presents were very expensive.

One maid explained, “These are gifts from the relatives for you and your baby. Where should

uld we put the

put them?

Olivia noticed the gifts for her were even more expensive. Tyler’s relatives had always been kind, but their generosity increased once they learned the baby’s gender.

Feeling overwhelmed, Olivia suggested, “In the cabinet?”

“Sure, I’ll put them there,” one maid replied.

But as the maid opened the cabinet, Olivia saw Tyler’s clothes, which hadn’t been moved for some time. Her expression fell once again.

The maid, unaware of Olivia’s distress, finished storing the gifts and left.

Alisa offered, “Do you want to get into bed now?”

Preferring solitude, Olivia responded, “You can go. I’ll manage on my own.” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Alisa hesitated but eventually left, knowing Olivia could move around independently.

Olivia wheeled herself closer to the cabinet, pulled qut a doll from the gifts, and held it. Although she felt. mixed emotions, holding the doll gave her a small smile.

That evening. Tyler’s car arrived quietly. The butler approached as Tyler parked and greeted him, Welcome back, Mr. Tyler.”

Tyler, silent, continued on his way. Maisy and Ana were in the living room, but neither spoke upon seeing

him.

The maid who had seen Tyler quickly went upstairs to Olivia’s room and announced, “Ma’am, Mr. Tyler is

back.”

Alisa, who was giving Olivia a warm massage, looked up, surprised by the news.

Seeing no reaction from Olivia, the maid added, “Mr. Tyler is downstairs.”

Olivia’s grip on the bedsheet loosened, and she simply replied, “Oh…” with little emotion.
