The Beginning Of All Sins

Chapter 176

Hillary looked awkward. Of course, she knew exactly what Tyler must have seen
and heard.

“Oh... Okay. You don't have to be so formal with me. I'm not a guest here,” she
said, trying to lighten

the mood.

“We shouldn't overlook proper etiquette,” Tyler replied casually.

Hillary chuckled nervously. “Sure.” She turned to Olivia and said, “I'm going
downstairs then.”

Olivia stood there, trying her best to appear composed. She nodded and replied,
“Yes, of course.”

Hillary turned and walked away, while Olivia remained still. When she reached
the door, Hillary said to Tyler, “Let's go, Tyler.”

“Hmm, you can go ahead,” he said.

Hillary's expression froze momentarily before she looked away and headed
toward the corridor.

Tyler lingered at the door for a moment, casting a glance at Olivia still in the
room. He frowned before finally leaving.

As if all her energy had been sapped away, Olivia sank onto the bed. She looked
utterly exhausted.

She wasn't sure when Hillary had left. By the time she went downstairs, Hillary
was already gone. Tyler was the only one left, sitting at the dining table.

Olivia couldn't interact with him as naturally as she wished. However, she
greeted him and sat down

to have breakfast.

Even though Olivia tried to appear normal, how could he not notice her red,
swollen eyes?

Observing Olivia eating the cold food, Tyler instructed the maid, “Heat up the
food.”

The maid promptly removed the cold dishes and brought back steaming hot
replacements.

Olivia continued to eat with her head bowed, never once lifting her gaze.

Just then, a maid from the Harris residence entered the room, carrying a few
items. She addressed Olivia, “Miss, Ms. Maisy sent you some jewelry. She said
you can wear them at the banquet.”

“Okay, please thank her for me,” Olivia replied softly.

Tyler directed the maid, “Take them to the room.”

After the maid left, Tyler resumed his breakfast elegantly.

In the days leading up to the banquet, Olivia had been upset. She turned off her
phone to avoid receiving any calls.

fifteen.

However, this time, he stood behind her, his expression cold and serious. He had
lost the warm smile she had seen at that time.

Olivia quickly straightened up, trying to appear less dispirited.
