Chapter 89
âNo matter what, you're guilty of what happened to Naomilâ
Darren grabbed Julia. âForget it, Julia. She didn't do it on purpose!â
âI'd Kill her if she did!â
Darren wanted to say more, but he chose to remain silent, realizing that
he had the least right to speak in this matter. He understood Julia's
anger and vengeance.
Observing the situation, Tyler, who had been quietly watching, decided
to approach.
Seeing Tyler, Darren looked relieved, hoping that he might bring some
sense into the situation. He exclaimed, âTyler is here.â
Julia, her anger subsiding, walked toward Tyler, her voice trembling
with worry.â Tyler, is Naomi awake? When will she wake up?â All the
rage that had filled her moments ago vanished without a trace,
replaced by deep concern.
He replied, âWe don't know yet.â
Julia's worry intensified. âWill she stay in a coma?â
âNot sure.â
Panicking, Julia exclaimed, âOh, no! What do we do now?â
While she was in distress, Tyler's gaze shifted toward Olivia. Julia
noticed his diverted attention and followed his gaze.
Realizing that Tyler had noticed her, Julia felt awkward about the
confrontation that had taken place in his presence. She understood that
family matters should not be aired in front of outsiders, but she felt it
was none of his business. Besides, she did not accuse Olivia.
Tyler broke the silence by providing some information. âNaomi's allergy
might not be triggered by animal hair. They're still investigating.â
Julia was taken aback by his unexpected statement. She had expected
him to side with her, but his response was neutral and factual. He did
not take anyone's side; instead, he merely stated the current situation.
Julia now felt uncomfortable stirring up a commotion in front of Tyler.
She said awkwardly, âI know I was too impulsive. Is the doctor looking
for the cause?â
âWe'll see when Naomi wakes up.â With that, Tyler glanced at Olivia
briefly, then averted his gaze and left the area as his secretary arrived.
They were likely
discussing a new treatment plan for Naomi.
Once Tyler had departed, Julia's attention returned to Olivia.
Concerned that Julia might lash out again, Darren grabbed her. âOkay,
Naomi's life is our top priority now. Stop it. It was terrible that Tyler
witnessed all of this.â
Indeed, juliaâs earlier words had been harsh and hurtful. However, she
firmly believed that Naomi belonged to the Harris family, and no one
could threaten her position.
Despite their prestigious reputation, the Jones family didnât want to
create a
public spectacle. Julia managed to calm down and walked quickly to
the doctor's office.
Darren remained behind, looking troubled. He approached Olivia, who
had a swollen cheek from the earlier slap, and said, âOlivia, although
Julia was impulsive, she was just worried. Forgive her.â
It was a rare moment for Darren to offer Olivia comfort, but his words
lacked warmth. Olivia remained composed, showing no signs of pain as
she responded, " I know.â
Darren sighed and left her alone. That was the only thing he could offer
her.
