Chapter 94

“I'll get Olivia another cat when you've recovered, okay?" z

Naomi smiled. “That's more like it."

“Mm-hmm, don't worry. Do you think I'd mistreat her?”

Olivia, who had been standing by, spoke up, “I have to go to school, Naomi. I'll leave now.”

Naomi didn’t want to hold her back and said, “Go ahead, Olivia. Do you need Tyler's driver to take you?"

“N-No need, I can go on my own.”

Naomi didn't insist and bid her farewell.

Meanwhile, Tyler glanced at Olivia discreetly.

In reality, Olivia didn't have school that day. It was Sophie's birthday, and there was a party at a bar in the evening. Sophie came from a wealthy family and had many affluent friends, so the party was quite grand.

Olivia didn’t particularly enjoy such social gatherings and, feeling somewhat moody, she had spent most of the evening quietly in a corner. Sophie was busy entertaining her other guests and didn’t have much time for her.

As the party went on, Sophie started looking around and asked, “Why isn’t Claude here?"

Claude Pearce, Sophie's older brother, was known for his outstanding achievements. He had graduated from a prestigious school and had a successful career in finance abroad.

However, he had recently returned home, taken a break from finance, and spent time teaching in a remote area. Now, at the age of 30, he had decided to return to the family business and would likely become its future leader.

People at the party were curious about Claude, as they had heard much about him but had never met

him.

One of Sophie's cousins said, “I don’t know. Didn't he say he'd come at 10?"

Seeing that Sophie was occupied with her phone call, Olivia, who was feeling bored, asked, “Sophie, can I step outside for some fresh air?” The bar was loud and crowded, making it hard to have a conversation. Sophie, still on the phone, didn't hear Olivia's request, so Olivia decided to go out on her own.

As she made her way to the exit, she encountered a slippery spot where beer had been spilled on the floor. Olivia slipped and nearly fell, but someone caught her just in time.

A cool, soothing voice asked, “Are you okay?”

Startled, Olivia looked up to see a friendly face. Unlike Jacob's sunny disposition or Tyler's elegant demeanor, this man had a pleasant and approachable appearance.

She pulled her hand away from his and replied, “I'm fine. The floor is just slippery. Thanks for helping.”

That man smiled. “No problem. Just be careful when you walk.” Olivia nodded absentmindedly as she walked outside.

Suddenly, the man asked, “Are you Sophie's friend?"

She stopped in her tracks, wondering. “Is he Sophie's brother?"
