The Beginning Of All Sins

Chapter 18
In the hotel room, Tyler gently held Olivia's face, and their eyes locked onto each
other.
He leaned in and kissed her lips, a kiss filled with an undeniable intimacy. Their
lips pressed together for a while, their breaths mingling closely as they finally
parted
That night, Olivia didn’t return home. Mrs. Jones woke up twice during the night,
at 1 A.M. and AM, but Olivia was nowhere to be found.
Tyler’s car only left the hotel the next day. He dropped her off at school directly,
and when she opened the car door to get out at the school entrance, he reached
out and took her hand. She froze instantly and looked at him, uncertain.
“Text me?” he asked.
She wasn’t entirely sure what he meant by that, but after a moment, he clarified,
“I'll buy you some clothes.”
She pursed her lips and glanced at her current outfit, realizing that wearing what
she had on the night before was rather inappropriate now. With her bag in hand,
she nodded after some hesitation.
Only then did he release her hand, allowing her to step out of the car. She
hurriedly made her way inside the school.
Tyler, too, seemed a bit disheveled. He was dressed in the same shirt and slacks
as the previous day, and they were visibly wrinkled. It was a rare sight to see him
looking so unkempt.
When Olivia arrived at school, she received a bank transfer notification on her
phone. Pausing to check it, she saw that a significant amount of money had been
deposited from an unfamiliar account.
She gripped her phone, overwhelmed by the unexpected financial windfall. She
didn’t need that much money right now. All she hoped was that Tyler wouldn't
reveal to her family that she had been working at the hotel.
Looking at the unfamiliar account number, she decided to accept the money for
the time being and continued on her way to class.
In the evening, Olivia received a text message from Tyler asking, “Are you done
with school?”
She did not reply after reading the message.
Alittle while later, Tyler sent another text, “I'll wait for you at the school entrance.”
Quickly after leaving the classroom, Olivia put her phone away. Sophie
approached her at that moment, saying, “You're not working part-time tonight,
Olivia. Will you have dinner with me?”
Her heart raced with anxiety when she heard Sophie's voice, fearing that Sophie
would notice she was wearing the same clothes as yesterday. Thankfully, Sophie
seemed oblivious to her attire. Olivia replied, “There's... something I have to deal
with at home. I have to go now.”

Sophie looked like she wanted to say more, but Olivia quickly left the classroom.
When she arrived at the school entrance, she saw Tyler's car waiting for her.
He had been busy with meetings all day, and exhaustion was evident as he
rubbed his temples while sitting in the car. Upon spotting Olivia, he put his hand
down.
She entered the car and settled into the passenger seat.
Tyler had changed his clothes and looked fresh again. He drove away from the
school.
She hesitated and then said, “Actually... You don’t have to buy me clothes. I'll
change at home.”
Ignoring her protest, Tyler continued driving and took her to a lingerie store at the
shopping mall. A shop assistant welcomed them as they entered.

Olivia kept her eyes downcast and
avoided looking at the merchandise.
Tyler, on the other hand, appeared as
nonchalant as ever as he picked up a
white lace lingerie set and handed it

She had learned about such matters
during puberty and in college.
Consequently, she hardly purchased
lingerie, nor did she regularly replace
her old ones. She would wear the
same sets for years until they wore
out. The content is on

Olivia hadn't expected Tyler to notice this detail about her. She felt awkward and
self-conscious standing in the lingerie store, as if she were being scrutinized.
Tyler then said, “I'll wait for you outside. Go try this on.”
Blushing, Olivia gave a brief nod in response.
