The driver said, “I'm going to get the car washed later in the afternoon. Mr. Tyler
doesn't like any stench lingering in the car.
Olivia could smell the alcohol and knew how drunk she was, but she pushed
aside the problem, climbed into the cat, and meticulously searched every nook
and cranny.
Emerging from the car, sweat-drenched and disheartened, the driver asked, “Did
you find it?”
Olivia's heart sank as she sadly shook her head. “No. I guess it's gone now.”
Sensing her distress, the driver inquired, “Is it something important?”
It held sentimental value, being the last item left by her mother. Despite her
utmost care, she couldn't hold onto it, and now it seemed lost forever.
Returning to Sandalwood Palace, Olivia was intercepted by the maid. “Ms. Olivia,
Mrs. Ana called and requested your presence at Harris Residence. She's still on
the phone, waiting for you.”
When Olivia heard that, her body stiffened as she stared at the maid. Unwillingly,
she approached the phone, eyeing it warily. Summoning her courage, she picked
up the receiver. “Hello, Aunt Ana.”
Ana's delighted voice greeted her. “Olivia, Grandma Maisy wants to enjoy a
performance, and we have guests coming over. Please come over.”
Ana was treating her like a daughter-in-law, and Olivia could tell. “Aunt Ana, I
might not-*
Ana's tone turned cold. “Might not what?”
“
Olivia pressed her lips into a straight line. She didn’t want to offend anyone, so
she changed her rejection into, “Let me check with Tyler, okay?”
Ana seemed satisfied with the response. “Alright, I'll wait for your answer.” With
that, she hung up
promptly.
Tyler emerged from his study, prepared to leave. As Olivia spotted him
descending the stairs, she rose from the couch and said him, “Tyler, Mrs. Ana
invited me to Harris Residence today.”
Unsure of how he would react, Olivia anticipated his disapproval. Would he think
she was trying to keep all the attention there to herself? If he objected, she could
gracefully decline Ana.
Tyler, however, responded casually, “What did you say?”
Olivia repeated what she just said,
“Do you want to go?”
