Chapter 104
Olivia, feeling anxious and apprehensive, instinctively took a step back upon
seeing Claude. She wanted to create some distance between them.
However, Claude, disinterested in stirring up gossip, simply ignored her and
remained smiling.
Attempting to maintain a cheerful atmosphere, Ana directed Olivia, saying,
“Olivia, get Claude a glass of wine.”
Startled by her name being called, Olivia hurried to a table adorned with glasses
of wine and silently handed one to Claude, avoiding eye contact.
As Claude accepted the glass, he briefly glanced at Olivia, his expression

Maisy’s friends and their families were taken aback. Though aware of Tyler and
Naomi’s broken engagement, the announcement caught them off guard. When

Olivia trembled, fearing Claude might disclose her relationship with Tyler to
Sophie.
Hearing no reply from Oliva, he continued, “Never thought I'd bump into you
