Chapter 145
Olivia didn’t protest when Hillary spoke. Tyler then turned to Hillary and asked, “Is she agreeing to this on her own?”
“Why don’t you ask her?” Hillary replied, gesturing to Olivia.
Enduring Hillary’s intense gaze, Olivia lowered her head and eventually approached Tyler. “I’m okay with it.”
Hillary smirked, Darren appeared torn with guilt.
Tyler showed no reaction. “You know the sort of document an IVF needs, right?”
“I know.”
“And you’re still sure about this?” Tyler questioned, noting Hillary’s watchful eyes on Olivia.
“Yes,” Olivia replied.
Tyler knew Hillary was pressuring her, but her quick agreement also took him aback. “Do you realize how young you are?”
Was she aware of the potential consequences of jeopardizing her own future like this?
Hillary noticed Olivia’s hesitation and intervened, “It’s just a certificate, isn’t it? It can be annulled once Naomi recovers. The sisters are close, so of course Olivia’s sure of her decision.”
But who would believe a young college woman suddenly having a marriage certificate? Olivia remained silent, realizing no one cared about her, not when Naomi’s life was at stake.
“Mrs. Jones is right. I’m sure of it,” she said.
Tyler’s expression darkened. “No, you need more time to think.”
Hillary was frustrated by Tyler’s constant questioning. Why couldn’t he just accept it?
The doctor approached ahd called for Tyler, who left without another word, brushing past Olivia.
Hillary stepped closer to Olivia, her tone harsh, “You owe Naomi, don’t you forget that!”
Feeling the weight of Hillary’s words, Olivia closed her eyes. If glares could kill, she’d be gone.
Ana watched everything from the end of the hallway, unnoticed.
She smiled. The marriage drew closer each day, a necessary sacrifice to save Naomi.
Turning away, Ana left the hospital.

That night, Olivia returned to Sandalwood Palace. Tyler’s assistant had been waiting for her.
“Mr. Tyler wants you to reconsider carefully,” the assistant relayed.
Olivia understood it was Tyler giving her one last chance.
She trembled. “Do I even have a choice?”
