Chapter 116

Tyler’s response was calm as he handed over the prescribed

medication. After a brief up, “We'll need a marriage certificate for IVF.”

pause,

Naomi was stunned.

Meeting her gaze, Tyler continued, “IVF might not work on the first try.

I could talk to Olivia about this, but she’s only in her twenties. We

can’t predict the risks she might face. You wouldn't want her to

experience those, right?”

Naomi hadn't fully considered these aspects. “I didn't know all of

that,” she admitted awkwardly.

Tyler left the ward with a somber expression. His assistant murmured

something to him, but he walked away without acknowledging it.

Olivia was oblivious to Naomi's situation. She had spent the entire day

at school and then in the lab until late at night. Upon returning to

Sandalwood Palace, she headed straight to her room, avoiding

any common areas.

Tyler returned home late that night. The maid informed him, “Miss

Olivia has already gone to bed.”

Without a word, Tyler went to his room.

This had become their routine for the past two days. Their interactions

were limited to brief encounters in the morning. At night, they never

crossed paths; Olivia either returned home too early or Tyler arrived

too late.

It was Olivia's deliberate choice. She preferred not to see Tyler if she

could avoid it.

This routine continued for about a week. Then, one afternoon, Olivia

received an unexpected call.

"Hello, is this Olivia Jones?”

Startled, she hesitated before responding. She hadn’t expected to hear

Claude at all. "Who... who is this?”

A gentle voice replied, “It's Sophie's brother, Claude.”

Olivia's heart raced. “How can I help you?” She stood at the edge of

the library's entrance,

surrounded by silence.

“I found a necklace, and I think it might be yours,” Claude explained.

Olivia's grip tightened on her phone. “Does it have a heart-shaped

pendant?”

“Yes, it's made from platinum.”

“I's mine, Claude! Please, where are you?”

They agreed to meet at a cafe. Olivia entered and immediately spotted

Claude. “Claude?”

He stood up as she approached. “Olivia!”

A smile spread across her face. “I hope I didn't make you wait.”
