The Beginning Of All Sins

Chapter 179
Tyler didn’t sweat throughout the small talk. He seemed to have gotten used to
grand events like this.
However, it was a different story for Olivia; she felt uneasy being around him.
Despite her efforts to remain inconspicuous, she couldn't escape the attention of
those chatting with Tyler.
“Congratulations, Mrs. Harris,” a guest extended his hand toward her.
Caught off guard, Olivia panicked. She was unsure how to respond.
Tyler intervened, introducing, “This is Mr. Freddie of Lucent Co..”
After a moment of hesitation, Olivia reluctantly shook hands with Freddie and
stammered, “T-Thank you.”
Freddie chuckled, teasingly remarking, “You've married a young one, Mr. Tyler.”
Tyler smiled gracefully in response. “Olivia is indeed much younger than me. I
hope you'll excuse her
lack of manners.”
Freddie's bright smile conveyed his approval. “Why would I mind? It's good to
marry someone young. You should cherish her. She’s too cute to worry about
manners.”
Tyler responded subtly, “She has certainly made a few missteps.”
Freddie offered his blessings before moving on, leaving Tyler and Olivia alone.
However, more people came to chat after he left, and it was chaotic.
Feeling overwhelmed, Olivia clung to Tyler's arm like a lifeline as he deftly
handled the conversations, accepting toasts and well wishes on her behalf.
Naturally, Tyler knew that she couldn't handle an occasion like this. And so, he
would gracefully sip a drink on her behalf during/toasts, allowing her to simply
stand by his side and offer a smile now and
then.
As she quietly stood there, with guests approaching to chat with them, the Harris"
butler approached Tyler and said, “Mr. Tyler, you'll need to toast to certain guests
before the banquet begins.”
He acknowledged the butler.
Concerned about Tyler's alcohol consumption, the butler inquired, “Are you
alright with drinking so
much?”
Tyler had basically drunk all of the toasts given to Olivia. Naturally, he didn’t need
to drink on every occasion, but he did so when it was called for. As the evening
progressed, the number of toasts added
1. up.
Yet, he appeared unruffled. “It's all good.”
The butler nodded and left.

Nervous, Olivia tightened her grip on his arm. Tyler glanced at her, asking softly,
