Chapter 212

In the looming presence of Tyler's shadow, Olivia seemed tiny, her

body trembling.

He had the urge to hug her, but instead, he got up. Standing close to

her, he said, “Stand up.”

Olivia was silent for a moment. After closing her eyes briefly, she

replied, “Okay.”

Slowly, she rose from the floor and faced him. “I'm alright, Tyler.”

She seemed a bit stronger and quickly turned away. When she did, her

hair touched his shoulder. He bent his head down, a sweet scent

lingering in the air.

Tyler went to his study because he had many online meetings. Right

when he sat down, Naomi called him. He looked at his phone before

answering. Naomi's voice came through, “Tyler?”

“What's wrong?” he asked.

“How's Olivia doing?”

Thinking of Olivia's recent state, Tyler replied while lighting a cigarette,

“She's doing okay.”

“I'm glad to hear that. I wanted to visit her, but my health...” Naomi

said.

“Take care of your health first.”

“I know.”

“Hmm, how are you feeling today?” Tyler asked.

“I'm feeling nauseous from chemo.”

“Try to rest after it's done.”

“Okay. I lost a lot of hair today,” Naomi said.

Tyler frowned. After a moment, he put out his cigarette. “I'll visit you

tonight.”

“No need. I don’t want you to see me like this.”

He didn’t show much reaction.

After a pause, Naomi added, “Tyler, my mom mentioned Olivia is quite

sensitive now, especially with her being pregnant. Maybe it's better if

she doesn’t stay at Sandalwood Palace?”

He stopped moving, cigarette in hand, and didn’t say anything for a

long while.

After waiting for him to respond, Naomi asked again, “Can we do

that?”

Finally, Tyler moved his hand away from the ashtray and spoke,

“Something's wrong with her.”

“What do you mean?” Naomi frowned.

“Her mental state. Her mood’s been off lately,” he said.

“What happened?”

“Jacob and Sophie are dating now.”

“Sophie? Isn't she her best friend?”

“Mm-hmm.”

Naomi was surprised. “She must be sad...”

Tyler's tone was flat. “Yes, so let's not move her right now. We'll wait

until the baby is okay.”

"I didn’t know about that. I'll talk to her.”

Tyler nodded; he didn't say much after that.

After the call, he sat quietly, just looking at the shadows on the floor.

Naomi called Olivia right after hanging up with Tyler.

Olivia answered, “Naomi.”

“Are you feeling any better, Olivia?”
