Chapter 182
However, their lips drew closer despite Olivia’s protests. Each movement brought them closer until they kissed fiercely.
Tyler’s expression darkened as he felt Olivia’s resistance. She wanted to plead with him to stop, but he silenced her with a forceful kiss before she could speak.
Desperately, Olivia struggled against him, and Tyler pulled away abruptly.
She knew exactly what he desired, and she resisted, reminding him, “We’re doing IVF soon.”
If that happened, they would cease all physical contact in the future.
But how was it possible that their intimacy would come to an absolute stop?
Tyler hugged her even tighter hearing that, so tight that she couldn’t escape. He was completely different from how he was during the day. He grabbed her chin and lifted it up, whispering into her ear, “Do you know how long I watched you earlier?
“Half an hour. I looked at you for half an hour. Am I losing my mind?”
“Can you stop?” Every word he said was triggering Olivia. She couldn’t bear to hear any more, not even a single word.
But Tyler persisted, “Why should I?”
Eventually, Olivia relented, leaning into his embrace.
When Olivia got downstairs, it was 10 a.m. Fortunately, everyone at home woke up late because they were exhausted yesterday, but she didn’t see Tyler.
“Is Tyler not up yet?” Maisy asked.
“He had a few drinks last night,” Olivia replied quickly.
He rarely slept late. Everyone at home knew that, except on occasions when he had indulged in alcohol or had spent a night in intimate company…
“He must be exhausted then,” Maisy remarked with a knowing look.
Olivia panicked, she just couldn’t be at ease.
“Don’t push yourself if you’re tired, Olivia. You don’t need to help around the house,” Ana reassured her with a smile.
Olivia remained silent, keeping her head down.
Just then, Tyler came downstairs. Ana and Maisy stopped talking.
Taking his seat, Tyler announced, “We won’t be having lunch here. We’re heading back to
Chapter 182
Sandalwood Palace.”

Ana and Maisy exchanged glances but said nothing. Since the banquet was over, of course it didn’t matter whether they stayed or not.
“Keith went out early, and you’re leaving with Olivia too. It seems I’ll only eat with Ana today,” Maisy
said.
“Mm–hmm, enjoy,” Tyler said casually, pouring himself a glass of water.
Olivia sat quietly next to him, avoiding eye contact.
After breakfast, they packed up and left. Tyler focused on his documents in the car while Olivia sat
beside him.
Just then, his phone rang. It was from the hospital.
“Let’s drop you off at Sandalwood Palace first,” he said to Olivia.
Olivia knew he was going to the hospital. “Okay, Tyler,” she replied, nodding.
They maintained their usual distance in the car, their conversation neutral.
As they headed toward Sandalwood Palace, Olivia received a call from Hillary urging her to get a check -up at the hospital immediately.
Olivia was shocked at the sudden request, stammering, “R–Right now?”
Tyler looked over when he heard that.
“Yes, right now. Isn’t the banquet at the Harrises over?” Hillary asked.
The reason was that Ana had a dispute with the Joneses, so they weren’t invited, nor were they informed about the banquet. This was why Hillary didn’t expect the Harrises to throw such a grand
one.
After learning about it that morning, Hillary couldn’t contain herself. She was impatient for Olivia to become pregnant, not willing to wait even a moment longer.
But how could Olivia master the courage for the check–up? Doing so would surely reveal to Hillary that she and Tyler had been intimate last night.
She had no idea what kind of examination she would be doing at the hospital, so she panicked and stammered, “D–Do I have to do that so early? I’m not ready.”
“Is it early? I don’t think so. Get over here now.”
Before Olivia could respond, Tyler intervened, taking the phone. “Are you at the hospital?” he asked.
Hillary hesitated upon hearing Tyler’s voice on the other end.
“Tyler?” she said, clearly surprised.
