Chapter 246
The Beginning Of All Sins
âJust someone insignificant,â Tyler said to Olivia with a casual tone, âAre you up?â
His voice had a unique sound that was both deep and slightly nasal, which Olivia found really pleasant to hear.
âYeah, Iâm awake,â she responded, pulling her blanket closer.
Tyler came over and sat next to her on the bed. âAre you hungry? Do you want something to eat?â
âIâm okay,â she said. She was feeling a bit shy about how she acted the previous night, wondering if she had lost her mind.
Tyler, however, seemed completely at ease. âYou havenât been eating much.â
Olivia knew she needed to eat, especially for the babyâs health, which was still uncertain. This time, she agreed more strongly, âYes, Iâll have something.â
As things happened too suddenly last night, Tyler hadnât changed his clothes from the day before. He was still wearing his black suit and white shirt, which made him look sharp and stylish.
He chuckled. âOkay, Iâll have some food brought over.â
Olivia wanted to stay in bed to keep the baby safe and limit her movement.
7 When the food arrived, Tyler gave her the fork and suggested, âThe seafood omelet is good. Try it.
Olivia noticed his hands as he held the fork; they were strong and defined. She started. eating the omelet he mentioned.
Tyler sat close, watching her eat with a calm expression. Olivia took small bites, almost like a kitten.
Even though Tylerâs gaze was steady, there was something captivating about it.
Just then, Linda entered. âSir, youâre needed at Pinnacle Group today.â
Hearing this, Olivia looked up. Tyler calmly told her, âStay here at the hospital. I have some things to take care of.â
Olivia understood he had work commitments during this trip. âMmâhmm, go ahead.â
After Tyler left, Linda handed him some papers to review. As he flipped through them, Linda received a call.
âItâs Michael, sir.â
Michael Cox was the father of Gina and the president of Averie Co.
Tyler took the phone, and Michaelâs voice came through. âI hope Iâm not disturbing you, Mr. Tyler. Iâve been meaning to invite you over since youâre in town, but I didnât want to impose.â
Tyler responded, dismissing the formalities. âWeâre practically family. Weâve had a strong partnership over the years.â
Averie Co. had been supplying goods to Pinnacle Group. The Harris family had a legacy in politics and business, spanning various sectors: property, healthcare, finance, technology, education, and tourism.
Pinnacle Group was a billionâdollar enterprise that depended on local supplies from Averie Co. With its huge profits, Averie Co. aimed to be the sole supplier. Their close relationship was based on mutual benefits and ongoing discussions about new ventures.
Michael ended with a personal note, âThis is all thanks to your support for me, Mr. Tyler, âemphasizing the âmeâ instead of saying âus.â
