Chapter 287
Dressed in pajamas, Tyler asked Olivia in a light and easyâgoing way,
âHow was it outside today?"
Olivia didnât answer him as she lay in bed.
He noticed her silence and gently prodded, âWhat's wrong?â
She recalled running into Sophie earlier but quickly dismissed the
thought, shaking her head. âNothing.â
Seeing her reaction, Tyler didnât press further. He was in a surprisingly
good mood, eyes warm and soft.
âDo I still reek of alcohol?â he asked, and then he opened the
windows.
his
After his shower, Olivia couldn't smell any alcohol on him. She nestled
deeper into her blanket and shook her head. âNo.â
âThat's good to hear.â Tyler laughed lightly.
Olivia watched him from her cozy spot in bed. He was by the window,
dressed in dark
blue pajamas. Feeling a bit overwhelmed, she looked away.
âAre you hungry?â he asked, after letting fresh air into the room.
Muffled by the sheets, Olivia replied, âNo.â
But truthfully, she was hungry. She just didnât want to admit it, worrying
about gaining more weight.
Tyler chuckled and walked to the door. His smile faded when he
ordered Nina, âBring some food.â
âYes, sir,â Nina responded and went downstairs.
Watching him stand over there, Olivia noticed that Tyler had smiled a
lot today, which
made her think.
When the food arrived, Tyler turned to her and said, âHave some
chicken porridge to make your stomach feel better.â He was in a great
mood today.
She didnât respond but started eating after Nina served the food. Tyler
sat nearby, reading the newspaper.
Chapter 287
Watching him, Olivia felt a stir of emotions. She wondered if she was
falling for the kindness in his gaze, a kindness she thought wasn't
meant for her.
The next day, Olivia felt down.
Tyler noticed her mood and tried to be even more considerate. He
wanted to keep the baby safe here, so he took extra care of her
feelings.
He offered, âWant me to take you out somewhere?â
Olivia wanted distance between them. âI can go by myself, Tyler.â She
was firm in her
response.
Tyler stared at her for a long time before saying, âSure. Any place you'd
like to visit today?â
âAnywhere is fine,â she replied.
âOkay, just
tell the driver,â he said. Since she had passed the risky stage, he
allowed her
more freedom in her activities.
"Mm-hmm, I will.â
Before they went downstairs for breakfast, Tyler affectionately stroked
her head.
Feeling bored, Olivia decided to go out after eating, letting Nina know
she'd be leaving
with the driver.
