vibrating on the dresser, realizing she had missed a call from Claude. Gripping her phone tightly, she hesitated.
Tyler watched her. âNot answering?â
Olivia covered the phone and said, âJust a telemarketer.â
Tyler didnât press further and glanced away. Olivia offered him the glass again. âHave one more glass.
Suddenly, Tyler stood up, looming over her. Olivia felt overwhelmed by his presence, backward.
stumbling Despite her wobbling, Tyler remained impassive. âItâs getting late, Iâm going to sleep,â he stated coldly as he walked past her to the bathroom.
She could feel his coldness. Lowering her gaze, she pressed her lips together, while Tyler entered the bathroom.
Once Tyler emerged from the bathroom and settled into bed, Olivia tidied up the room and switched off the light before joining him. Despite lying side by side, they felt miles apart.
Olivia lay awake, staring into the darkness. She couldnât remember how she fell asleep that night.
The next morning, Olivia woke to find the other side of the bed empty.
âMrs. Olivia, itâs 10 am.â
Hearing a knock on the door, she realized it was already 10 am. She jumped out of bed and said, Okay, Iâll be out soon.â
It was 10 am. Why didnât Tyler wake her up? Olivia didnât understand.
She hurriedly cleaned up in the bathroom and rushed downstairs, finding the house quiet and empty.
Olivia said to the maid, âIâm sorry for getting up late.â
The maid smiled. âItâs fine. Just pay more attention next time.â
âOkay.â Olivia nodded, feeling terrible.
âYou should go have breakfast,â the maid said before walking away.
But Olivia had no appetite. As she stepped outside, she spotted Tyler playing golf on the lawn.
When Tyler saw her walk over, his hand paused, and his attention shifted entirely to her. He accepted a towel from the maid standing beside him as Olivia reached him.
He was about to speak when Olivia interrupted with, âWhy didnât you wake me?â
Tyler stopped drying his sweat and frowned.
Oliviaâs eyes welled up with tears as she quickly retracted, âNever mind.â
It was already 10 am when she woke up, and everyone had finished breakfast. What did this imply?
