Chapter 378

1/2

Naomi froze, sensing no gentleness in his touch. She strained a smile, attempting to mask her unease. That's good news. She's my only sister, and she's been through a lot. I just want her to be okay. I worry about her."

Tyler seemed to have seen through her eyes. He was not smiling at all.

Naomi's heart skipped a beat.

"What's wrong?" she asked hurriedly. Why was he looking at her like that?

Tyler removed his hand.

"Nothing," he said quietly.

Naomi studied his face, detecting a coldness beneath his stoic exterior.

Tyler was only home by 12 A.M.

Olivia walked out of her room to get a glass of water, but she came out just in time to catch him. She

stopped.

Tyler shot her a look.

Their shadows crossed on the floor beneath them.

He walked past her and went into the study.

It was as though a great yawning gap had grown from between the two of them.

Olivia returned to her room after standing by the door for a while..

The next morning, Olivia sat motionless on her bed, grappling with the fallout of her actions. She knew the scandal was her doing, and her contract with the Harrises couldn't afford to be terminated-not now. Elite families prized reputation above all else.

"Just a few more months to endure," she reminded herself, knowing she couldn't avoid the world outside

forever.

She finally rose from her bed and walked outside. She found Ana downstairs and called out, "Mom?"

Olivia understood Ana's nature well. Cross her, and you'd regret it. Befriend her, and she'd treat you cordially, Olivia had always maintained a friendly demeanor, but now she couldn't predict Ana's reaction. Ana was apathetic. She was admiring a flower in her hand as if wondering which vase it should go to.. After a while, she simply said, "Breakfast."

She placed the stalk down and walked toward the dining room.

Olivia followed silently.

They arrived at the dining room where Maisy was. Olivia Immediately greeted, "Good morning, Grandma!"

Maisy greeted her warmly, unfazed by the rumors. "Good morning! You must be starving! Come, have your

breakfast!"

Olivia moved her stiff neck. "Alright."

These three were the only ones at home today. Olivia sat next to Maisy, stealing glances at Ana, who appeared to ignore her. She chatted with Maisy while having her meal. It felt surreal. It was as if nothing had changed.
