Chapter 239
The Beginning Of All Sins
Gina thought things were as she expected Tyler and Olivia got married because Olivia was expecting a baby. It seemed like there wasnât any love between Tyler and Olivia, who used to be his exâfianceeâs sister but was now his wife, Tyler took Olivia away to a quiet spot far from everyone else. He looked at her with a serious expression.
Olivia looked down. Their situation wasnât as simple as people thought. Despite the rumors that she took Naomiâs hoyfriend and got pregnant, their marriage was indeed because of the pregnancy, But the mean comments still hurt Olivia.
Tyler didnât say anything for a while, then he took her hand gently.
Olivia was surprised and looked up at him, but Tyler didnât look back. Instead, he led her away.
Gina, who thought everything was happening just as she guessed, was shocked to see Tyler and Olivia holding hands. Her smug smile disappeared.
Her friend was also surprised until Tyler and Olivia were out of sight.
Tyler held Oliviaâs hand and hugged what to do with her hands, her in a quiet corner. At first, Olivia didnât know but then she felt his hand gently pressing on her head. She timidly tucked her neck into the comfort of his shoulders, relaxing and leaning into him.
It felt like she was finally finding peace after struggling for so long.
âIâm sorry you have to go through this, Olivia.â
Olivia felt completely safe in his arms. âTyler, my mom isnât the person they say she is. She didnât destroy Dad and Aunt Hillaryâs family.â
âMmâhmm, I know.â
Olivia wasnât sure if others believed the rumors, but she knew her mom wasnât at fault..
They stayed at the party until it was very late.
Tyler took Olivia back to the hotel at around 10 pm. She was still upset and confused.
He could tell what she was thinking and said, âThat was Marianneâs sister. I wasnât even dating Naomi then. Iâll teach her a lesson.â
Olivia knew about Tylerâs past with Naomi, just like she knew about her own past love with Jacob.
Those were old stories, but Gina couldnât move on from them.
âItâs okay, Tyler. We got married quickly because of the situation.â
Tyler looked at her for a long time, then decided to drop the subject. âYou must be tired. Go get some rest.â
Olivia nodded but then paused. âDid she like you, Tyler?â
Tyler didnât make a big deal out of it. âItâs been a long time. Itâs all in the past.â
In the pastâ¦
Olivia kept thinking about what could have been if Naomi hadnât gotten sick. Maybe Tyler and Naomi would have been happy together.
She didnât want to pry about their past.
âTyler, once the baby is born, Iâll end our contract. Iâll leave with the baby. I donât want to cause any more trouble for you or Naomi.â
