Chapter 230
Tyler had just brought Olivia into the hotel lobby when a distant relative
approached. He let go of Olivia's hand to greet him.
The man said, âWe've been waiting, Tyler. Glad you both could make
it.â
This man was from Maisyâs side of the family, specifically her greatâ
nephew. Their families didn't see each other much, usually only at big
family events.
This time, they were here for the great-nephewâs babyâs three-month
celebration. Maisy always put her family first, so she asked Tyler to
come along to show their support.
As the man approached, Tyler said, âHi, Caleb.â
Caleb Rees looked happy to meet them and was surprised to see
Olivia. âIs this your wife?â
Olivia, feeling a bit out of place among Tyler's family, quietly said hello
from behind him.
âThis is Olivia,â Tyler introduced her smoothly, making it feel natural.
Caleb, smiling, mentioned, âI heard you're going to be a father soon.
Congratulations.â
Tyler smiled warmly. âThanks, but today is about celebrating your new
arrival.â
The quiet moment between Tyler and Olivia made them look like a
sweet couple.
Caleb joked, âWell, I guess I beat you to being a father.â
Their conversation flowed easily, and Tyler was unusually smiling the
whole time.
After talking for a bit, Caleb said, âI've checked you in, Tyler. Let me
know if the room is alright for you and Olivia.â
Tyler nodded. âOkay, it's all good. Go ahead with your preparations.â
Once Caleb left, Tyler turned to Olivia. âLet's go.â
Olivia wasn't used to mingling with Tyler's family yet, so she was glad
he didn't push her to talk more.
Once they were alone in their room, Olivia worriedly asked Tyler, âIs it
bad that I'm not good at socializing?â
Tyler was puzzled by her sudden concern.
âI might not... fit in,â she added, feeling insecure.
Tyler realized her worries and reassured her, âYou didn't finish school,
and you're not working yet, so it's normal to feel unsure in social
situations. Donât worry, I'm not expecting you to be a social
butterfly.â
After a brief pause, Olivia replied, âOkay.â She often felt like she wasn't
contributing much as his wife, worried she was being a burden to him.
Tyler stared at her for a long time. âGo rest for now.â
She nodded: âOkay, Tyler â
Tyler had work to do, so he went to the study, while Olivia stayed in the
room, unpacking.
Linda soon went into the study.
Later, Olivia turned on the TV to pass the time, but she wasn't really
paying attention. She wasn't even sure what she was watching.
