Chapter 319
The Beginning Of All Sins
Olivia didnât respond after hearing Maisyâs words.
Maisy continued, âThink about yourself and the baby first.â
While Maisy was talking to Olivia, Ana came over. Ana knew it made sense to ask about Naomi since Naomi was her sister.
Ana didnât say much, but she told Maisy, âOkay, Mom. Letâs move her to the ward. She needs to rest.â
Maisy gently stroked Oliviaâs cheek, looking worried about how pale Olivia appeared. Alright, letâs get her to the ward.â
Ana stood beside the bed, quietly watching Olivia. âTyler is with the doctor. Heâll come see you later.â
Olivia didnât reply to Ana. She was unsure if Ana was being honest.
After calming down from her pain, Olivia grew silent and lay there feeling a bit tired.
Ana asked the hospital staff, âIs there anything else we should know?â
The staff quickly answered, âThatâs everything, Ms. Ana.â
Feeling relieved, Ana said, âLetâs move her to the ward then.â
Maisy and Ana stayed with Olivia in the ward. Not knowing if Olivia was just exhausted or in shock, Olivia seemed to have fallen asleep.
Maisy kept tucking Olivia in, showing her a lot of care, even more than she showed her own granddaughter.
At first, Ana only saw Olivia as someone to use in her plans. But after spending time with Olivia and finding out she was nothing like the Joneses, Ana started to really like her.
Ana asked the maid to bring food, even though it was late at night, so Olivia could eat when she woke up. After getting the instructions, the maid, who had been with them at the hospital, went home to prepare the meal.
While everything was quiet around Olivia, Naomi had just been brought out of the emergency room at midnight. Her condition was critical, and she looked like she was barely alive. Her eyes were barely open, and she seemed to have lost her will to live.
Hillary and Darren were in the hallway crying loudly. They hurried to Naomiâs side as she lay with an oxygen mask, weak and barely conscious.
Meanwhile, Tyler, looking as if heâd been through a terrible ordeal, stood grim beside the gurney. With a hoarse voice, he told the crying parents, âShe needs to be in the ICU. Letâs let them take her.â
Hillary sobbed, âShe was fine yesterday! What happened?â
Darren looked stunned, his eyes dull.
Tyler didnât feel like talking, so he remained silent. He followed the staff as they took Naomi to the ICU.
Naomi survived the night and woke up the next morning, though she still looked The hospital staff constantly moved in and out of the ICU, and a blood donor was on standby for 24 hours.
very ill.
Tyler stayed outside the ICU the whole time. The situation remained hectic.

Olivia woke up at 8 am. The ward was quiet except for the ticking of a clock. She opened her eyes and listened to it briefly before staring at the ceiling.
Just then, Ana approached her, noticing she was awake while talking to a nurse. She asked, â How are you feeling? Would you like something to eat?â
