Chapter 153
Claude stood and watched from afar.
When they arrived at Harris Residence, Tyler helped Olivia out.
Curious about the meal, Olivia watched as they approached the main
door. Aman approached Tyler, saying, âYour fatherâs been waiting.â
Tyler's expression remained cold as he replied, âOkay,â then turned to
Olivia. âIt's just a simple meal.
âOh.â Olivia frowned, unsure of what was happening. She had never
met Tyler's father and wasnât expecting to meet him today.
Inside, Olivia spotted a man at the end of the dining table-Tylerâs
father, Keith Harris.
Nervously, Olivia walked beside Tyler, feeling the scrutiny of everyone

jewelry.â
Olivia's hand trembled.
Keith had a few things to say about them not having a ceremony, but

As Keith suggested they take their seats, Ana said, âWe can plan the
ceremony later, but we should inform the necessary people. Tyler,
when should we invite our close friends for dinner?
Olivia, already seated, froze
