Chapter 48
Tyler spottest the maid as he entered the house and asked, “Is Olivia home?”
The maid replied with a warm smile, “Yes, she’s here. She’s changing upstairs.”
Tyler nodded and proceeded to make his way upstairs. However, as he passed through the living room, something on the coffee table next to the couch caught his eye. He abruptly stopped and. reached for a box of medicine.
The maid suddenly remembered that she had taken the medication out of Olivia’s bag and quickly explained, “Sir, I removed it from Ms. Olivia’s bag.”
Tyler’s calm face became tense as he questioned, “This is hers?”
“M–Mmm–huum, it’s hers.”
His expression turned cold. “Is she upstairs?”
The maid found his behavior odd but answered, “Yes… She’s in her room.”
Without further delay, Tyler proceeded upstairs.
In the meantime, Olivia had just finished changing. She was at her vanity, removing her earrings, when the door suddenly swung open. Startled, she turned her gaze toward the door.
She quickly stood up and stammered, “T–Tyler.”
He stood in the doorway, his back to the light, casting a shadow over his stern face. Olivia was bewildered by his sudden appearance and his serious expression.
⚫ Tyler, holding something in his hand, asked curtly, “What’s this?”
Olivia’s eyes widened as she saw what he was holding. Emotions surged within her, and she rushed toward him, desperately trying to take it from him. However, he deftly lifted it out of her reach, dodging her attempt.
Panicking, Olivia implored, “Give it to me, Tyler.”
He held it just out of her grasp and continued to stare at her. “Are you planning to take this?”
Feeling ashamed, Olivia couldn’t bring herself to answer.
Tyler then placed the box of medication directly in front of her and pressed, “Do you even know what’s in this?”
Olivia was still confused. Tyler’s expression turned stern as he continued, “This contains an aphrodisiac. Was I not performing well in bed for you?”
Her face flushed with embarrassment, Olivia panicked and muttered, “It says that it can help with conceiving. I didn’t realize-”

“Do you understand the harm this could cause to your body?” he interrupted.
Olivia had thought it was just a regular supplement, and her shyness prevented her from looking at him directly. Her cheeks were burning as she admitted, “I really didn’t know.”
Although Tyler was furious upon discovering the medication, he managed to restrain his anger. With patience, he told Olivia, “Olivia, conceiving should happen naturally. Using something like this is extreme, and I don’t want to see such things at home again. Remember that.”
“O–Okay,” she replied timidly.
He looked away coldly and left the room, the oppressive atmosphere dissipating with his departure.
At dinner, Olivia appeared visibly defeated. She kept her gaze down and silently focused on her food.
Tyler remained silent as well, and the maid wisely refrained from asking about the situation. After dinner, Tyler headed upstairs, and Olivia followed suit, her spirits clearly deflated.
