Olivia wasn’t expecting him to ask that. Trying to avoid the question, she
pleaded, “Please don’t do
this, Tyler.
But Tyler pressed on, “I want to know.”
She reluctantly said, “Jacob.”
Tyler sensed that Olivia's answer wasn’t accurate. He had something specific in
mind and insisted, ” That's not the answer I'm looking for.”
Olivia said, “A man like you.”
“Are you sure? Think carefully.” He continued prodding her, but Olivia remained
silent, lips pressed tight, refusing to answer.
Tyler held her close, stroking her hair. “Are you upset about the cat? Don’t worry,
I sent it to a good pet store. We can visit it soon.”
He hugged her tighter, whispering, “Maybe the pet store should get a few more
cats, and I'll bring you to see them every day. Okay?”
In the darkness, his voice was soft, hoping to bring comfort, but Olivia stayed
silent.

staff, Ana insisted on preparing meals herself.

Olivia. She's been helping your mom since early in the morning.”
Tyler took a seat at the table, looking bleary—eyed. “I drank too much last night.”

yourself.”
Tyler nodded slowly after a long pause, and Maisy was secretly overjoyed. One
of the maids had heard. noises from their room during the night and informed
Maisy the next morning.”
Maisy suggested to Tyler, “Tyler, you're still quite young. You can't be taking care
of a sick person for the rest of your life.” She then sighed. “You've been through a
lot. Olivia is quite nice. She’s understanding and gentle. You like her too. Why not
marry her by the end of the year?”
Olivia, walking out of the kitchen while carrying a plate of toast, overheared that.
She froze in shock.
Ana came up behind Olivia, catching Maisy’s words. Ignoring Olivia's reaction,
she approached. “I agree. It's a good time for you two to tie the knot, especially
with Olivia finishing up at university
soon.”
Taking a seat opposite Tyler, Ana asked, “What do you think, Tyler?”

Olivia felt a chill creep over her. She wanted to join them but found herself rooted
to the spot.
Before Tyler could respond, a maid Interrupted. “Mrs. Ana, can we switch on the
electricity for Ms. Olivia's room?”
Tyler's and Ana's faces froze at the question, plunging the table into silence.
Quickly recovering, Ana replied, “Didn't I ask the electrician to fix that? If it's
sorted, switch it back. on.” She quickly changed the subject, saying to Maisy, “I've
prepared plenty of food. You should have some more.”
Tyler's tone turned icy. “It's not enough for you to be worried about my dad?”
Ana met his gaze, her expression frozen.
Maisy intervened, sensing tension. “Alright, let's just enjoy our breakfast.”
Tyler remained silent, focusing on the newspaper.
