Chapter 296

Tyler remained still, holding Olivia close and breathing in the scent of her hair. They hadn't crossed boundaries, especially since Olivia had been going through a delicate

pregnancy.

When she tried to push him away, he caressed her head and said softly, “You've reached three months now.”

Indeed, her pregnancy was considered stable now.

Olivia tensed up at his words. “You can’t do that. I'm pregnant,” she whispered, unaware of how seductive her soft voice was affecting him. In the darkness, Tyler looked at her, his hand still resting gently on her head.

Olivia shoved him and said, “I'm sleeping on the couch.”

Even when she tried to leave for the couch, Tyler held her close, making it impossible for her to move without fearing for the baby's safety.

“You'll hurt the baby, Tyler,” she warned as they stayed close in the dark, their breaths overlapping with each other.

Tyler simply sighed and reassured her, “Sleep, I won't touch you now. I'll wait.”

His words surprised her, but she slowly relaxed in his embrace. Resting his chin on her head with a sigh, Tyler gently moved his hand to her waist. “Has your belly grown more?” he asked softly.

Olivia felt a mix of emotions, her heart sinking slightly. While her belly gradually enlarged, the rest of her remained slender.

After a pause, she responded, “It won't grow so fast.”

Outside, the chill of the night contrasted with the warmth of Tyler's embrace, where she felt comfort and softness.

Tyler felt his body relax at the sound of her voice.

All Olivia wished was that he would let her go as soon as possible, but she dared not struggle.

When Tyler's hand moved to her lower abdomen, she tensed up, more sensitive than

usual. “They say you shouldn't touch the belly,” she mentioned, hinting at the advice she'd heard.

Surprised, Tyler stopped immediately and pulled her close in a gentle embrace instead. Where did she learn all this out of nowhere?

“Okay, let's sleep.”

Olivia remained quiet in his arms for a moment before speaking up, “I'm not scared anymore, Tyler. I think I can sleep by myself now.” Previously, she'd felt so vulnerable that only his embrace could soothe her into sleep, dispelling any anxiety and fear. But recently, she had begun to feel more independent, wanting to sleep alone, especially as she became more aware of her growing bump.

“I'd like to sleep on my own. With the baby growing, I'm worried about causing any harm.”

Hearing her, Tyler opened his eyes wide and looked at her.

Olivia wiggled in his arms. Her attempt to keep her distance was obvious.
