Chapter 109

The dining hall fell silent at Olivia's words. Maisy's expression changed. “Why?”

Olivia had been contemplating this moment for a while. With a trembling voice, she spoke up, “I've been thinking about this for some time. I can’t accept the bracelet, but I appreciate your kindness.” Maisy seemed displeased but ignored Olivia's words.

Ana, surprised by Olivia's refusal, questioned, “You don't like the bracelet Grandma gave you?"

“It's not that,” Olivia clarified, her voice uneasy. “It's just too expensive, Aunt Ana. I can't accept it.”

Ana wasn't going to let her get a gift? Maisy wanted you to have away: “Do you think we'd take back it. Are you rejecting her gesture?” Ana's tone was confrontational, leaving Olivia speechless.

Maisy interjected, her voice filled with disappointment, “At my age, I cherish each day. I didn't expect you wouldn't appreciate my gift.” Olivia's hand trembled as she held the bracelet, feeling overwhelmed and unsure how to proceed. Grandma, I really can’t...” she began, but Maisy cut her off, visibly annoyed.

Recognizing Olivia's discomfort, Tyler stepped in, “Since it's a gift from Grandma, you should just keep it.”

Olivia bowed her head. The atmosphere grew increasingly tense, with Maisy looking more and more

annoyed.

Watching Olivia, Tyler noticed her slowly withdrawing her hand. Maisy's expression softened into a smile and said, “It's just a small token. Don't dwell on it too much.

Ana added, “Wear it and don't take it off. Grandma would be upset if you did, okay?" With that, she directed the maid to clear the table, effectively ending the discussion.

Clutching the bracelet, Olivia glanced at Tyler, who looked away.

After breakfast, the atmosphere remained strained, so Tyler and Olivia left promptly.

On their way out, Tyler reassured her, “The bracelet doesn't matter. Just keep it.” He didn't want her

to fret over it.

Sitting quietly, Olivia murmured, “I'll give it to my sister.” She felt the bracelet was a ticking time bomb.

“Your sister hasn't been well lately,” Tyler responded after a pause. “Since it's meant for you, hold onto it for now. It's just a simple bracelet.”

Uncertain, Olivia pondered his words, realizing she might have made a mistake. After a moment of

silence, she agreed, “Okay.”
