Chapter 308
The car window slid down. Claude peered inside and saw Tyler. "What
are the chances of us meeting right outside my house?" he asked,
surprised.
He remembered the last time Tyler was here, the day he got engaged
to Morgan.
Tyler stared back with a serious expression. "This isn't a coincidence,
Claude. I'm here for you."
Claude raised an eyebrow. "Really?"
âYou come from a well-known family. I'm sure you wouldn't want any
scandal, right?" Tyler's voice was chilly.
Claude guessed why Tyler was here the moment he spotted his car. He
grinned.â
What scandal? You mean the rumors about me and Mrs. Harris? What
if I said I like her?"
Tyler's expression grew even colder at that, but he managed a smirk.
"We both have reputations to consider, while Olivia is naive. I trust
you'll act appropriately.â
"And what if I admit I do like her?" Claude pushed back.
âYou can try," Tyler responded coolly.
Claude laughed. "You think I wouldn't ? Even though she's technically
your wife, isn't it just on paper?â
Tyler said little, just a brief "Yes" while fiddling with his wedding ring.
âLooks like you enjoy a challenge.â
âI do,â Claude replied, not backing down.
"You've just started at Yancey Bank. Try anything foolish, and see how
quickly you lose your board of directors.â With that, Tyler rolled up his
window and drove off.
Claude stood there, chuckling as he watched the car disappear.
Just then, Sophie came out of the house. Seeing Claude, she walked
over. "Weren't you going for arun? Why are you just standing here?"
He glanced at her and replied casually, âIt's nothing.â Then, he started
walking.
But Claude wasn't about to back down. From the moment he returned,
he was prepared to confront Tyler.
Now, he was determined to save an innocent girl. How could he watch
Tyler hurt someone else for Naomi?
Despite Olivia being Naomi's sister, he wouldn't let her be the sacrifice
for the couple's relationship. He even pondered the idea of running
away with Olivia and her unborn child. Would Naomi survive by then?
Claude's smile grew, but there was rage in his eyes.
Sophie watched him from the front of the house, staring at his back.
Her face filled with confusion.
When Tyler reached home, he found Olivia making candles with Ana in
the living room. He looked cold as he walked silently into the living
room.
Ana noticed him and said to Olivia, Tyler's home. There's a red velvet
cake in the kitchen. Why don't you bring it to him?"
But Olivia stayed put, standing silently beside her. Ana looked at her,
waiting for her to move.
