Chapter 149

Olivia followed them out of the office. The assistant suggested, “You should head back to Sandalwood Palace, right?”

“Right,” Olivia agreed.

She went home in a separate car from Tyler's.

On the way, Olivia remained in a daze, feeling drained of energy. She arrived home feeling just as lost.

Her mission completed, the assistant bade her farewell after some small talk.

So... was this officially the start of her married life? Olivia couldn't help but smirk at the absurdity of it all.

The atmosphere at home felt icy, making it hard to breathe. That night, Olivia spent it alone in her

room.

For the next few days, Olivia didn’t see Tyler at all. Then, on the fifth day, she was awakened by a

noise downstairs.

Clutching her blanket, she listened intently. The maids were asleep, so who could it be at this hour?

Fearing it might be a thief, Olivia tiptoed downstairs, feeling anxious. The darkness made her tense, her mind racing with thoughts of serial killers, home invaders, and god—knows—-what else.

“W-Who's there?” she called out nervously as she reached the bottom of the stairs.

The light flicked on, and Olivia froze when she saw who it was. Tyler? Tyler didn't seem surprised, just tired. “What? Who else did you think it could be?” he asked.

Olivia remained silent, her imagination running wild.

“Did I scare you?" he asked, knowing she must have suspected something else.

Olivia shook her head. It was the first time they'd seen each other since getting “married.”

“Sorry, I've been busy at the hospital lately, coming home late. Must have woken you up plenty of times.”

Olivia shook her head, silently dismissing his apology.

Tyler was about to hang his coat, but seeing Olivia standing there, he changed his mind and climbed the stairs to her. “It's late. Let's go rest,” he suggested.

Feeling a bit more assured now that it was Tyler, Olivia agreed, “Yeah, you should rest early too. Goodnight.”

The change in their relationship left them both feeling awkward.

As Olivia turned to leave, she paused. “You must be really tired lately, huh?" she remarked.

In the dim light, Tyler looked somewhat indifferent. “It's fine.”

“Um... I think I'm going to bed,” she said after his curt answer. “Wait,” Tyler suddenly blurted out, “Olivia?”
