The Beginning Of All Sins

Olivia remained silent throughout the encounter.

Tyler didn’t introduce her and instead suggested to his mother, “Let’s have dinner together if you’re free.”

However, Ana seemed oblivious to his offer, continuing with her own thoughts,” I quite like her, she’s more docile than Naomi.”

Tyler paid her no attention, and the smile quickly faded from Ana’s face. Frustration crept into her tone as she continued, “Tyler, I’ll never accept Naomi, nor will our family accept a daughter–in–law who is terribly sick.”

Tyler remained stoic, his tone icy as he asked, “Are you done?”

Ana didn’t come here to argue, and she maintained a forced smile as she said, ” It’s rare to see you rush home. Seems like this lady is quite important to you. It’s okay. I’m fine with anyone as long as it’s not Naomi.”

The two locked eyes in a tense standoff, neither willing to back down. The maid, meanwhile, remained silent, standing in the background. She dared not say anything.

Olivia hadn’t expected the situation to unfold this way, nor did she anticipate t revelations about Tyler’s engagement to Naomi.

the

Long ago, she heard her family talking about Naomi and Tyler. She heard that it was Tyler’s mother who was unwilling to accept her, that they had been engaged for years instead of getting married. His

mother disagreed with the marriage.

Never had she thought it was all true.

She retreated, attempting to remove herself from the situation.

Ana glanced at her again.

Just then, Tyler spoke, “I won’t ask you to stay since you’re busy.” He sounded heartless; he didn’t bother to be nice..

Ana chuckled and looked away from Olivia. Naturally, she did not stay. “Sure, I won’t bother you.”

Her departure was swift, and her chauffeur awaited her outside.

Olivia watched as the car drove away, leaving behind a now–quiet Sandalwood Palace. The maid was visibly shaken, and it took her a while to regain her composure.

Tyler looked at her and asked, “When did she come?”

“I called you as soon as I saw her here.”

He then looked at Olivia. She was still tense. After all, she hadn’t expected to see Ana here today. He said to her, “Don’t worry, it has nothing to do with you.”

Observing the interaction between Tyler and Olivia, the maid couldn’t help but notice that Tyler’s tone seemed gentler when addressing Olivia.

With a clenched fist, Olivia responded, “Okay, Tyler.”

Tyler walked past Olivia and headed upstairs, leaving her standing there.

Olivia was plagued with worry about whether Ana had discovered the real reason for her stay at Sandalwood Palace. She couldn’t bear to imagine the consequences if that were the case. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

As she continued to stand there, lost in thought, the maid approached her and whispered, “Ms. Ana doesn’t really like Ms. Naomi. Mr. Tyler and her have had fights because of that. It seems their relationship still has some unresolved issues.

Olivia bit her lip as she absorbed this information.
