Chapter 135
Olivia was elated to hear about Natalie’s well–being, the happiest news she had received in a while. That’s great. She’s grown up so fast.”
“I never imagined I’d come across the Livi she always talked about. We should plan a trip to
Sereneville. It’s been a while since I’ve seen them.”
Olivia’s heart fluttered at the suggestion. “Sure. I haven’t been back in ages. Just let me know when you’re free.”
“Alright. Consider it a plan.”
After chatting for a while, Olivia set her phone aside, marveling at the twists of fate.
Descending the stairs, Olivia noticed Tyler seated there. She realized she had been engrossed in conversation with Claude and they were now running late.
Taking a seat across from Tyler, he asked, “Didn’t have a good sleep?” He then noticed she kept checking her phone.
Olivia saw him staring at her phone and took it off the table. “I overslept a little.”
Tyler looked away, sliding a glass of milk toward her. “Drink it while it’s cold.”
Olivia eyed the milk, her lips pressed together. “Okay, thanks.” Feeling guilty for her behavior the previous day, she appreciated his kindness.
Typically, Tyler would drive Olivia to the university in the morning. As they arrived, she inquired, ” Are you visiting Naomi today?”
Noticing his frequent visits to the hospital lately, she wondered about her sister’s well–being.
Tyler didn’t explicitly confirm, simply stating, “She has a few tests today.”
Olivia wanted to ask how Naomi was, but she hesitated and merely nodded. “That’s good.”
Tyler glanced at her, noting her lack of enthusiasm, then briefly placed his hand on her head.
Olivia looked up at him. Meeting his gaze, she felt a momentary connection before he withdrew his hand, saying, “Alright, focus on your classes. I’ll pick you up later.”
His voice was soft and gentle, but Olivia protested, “You don’t have to worry about me. I can make my own way back to Sandalwood Palace.”
more.
She didn’t want to take away time that Tyler could spend with Naomi. Her sister needed him more.
Hearing her response, Tyler stared at her. “Okay.”
As Olivia got out of the car and walked into the university, his expression turned cold.
The news of the Harris Group’s huge donation to the university buzzed around her, but she paid little
attention. She hoped Tyler could secure funds for her sister’s treatment, a cause close to her heart.
She prayed for Naomi’s swift recovery, her worry for her sister’s health weighing heavily on her mind.
Later that night, Olivia chatted with Claude through text. They clicked inexplicably well, understanding each other.
Meanwhile, Tyler had been proactive, assembling a new team of doctors to care for Naomi. Olivia remained unaware of these developments, as Tyler chose not to disclose them to her.
