Chapter 29

Olivia didn’t expect such a serious matter to be solved so quickly. Herfingers trembled.

Tyler, with his indifferent expression, frowned slightly upon hearing herwords. “Okay, deal with the

rest.”

“Got it, Mr. Tyler.”

Olivia felt as if she were in a dream. She had no idea what conditionsthey had set or what Tyler had offered to resolve the matter so swiftly.He made no mention of the details.

Her body felt weak, but she decided not to inquire further. She wouldpretend she knew nothing. knowing she might never be able to repaythis favor.

“Tyler, whatever you need me to do... I'll do it.” Her sincerity wasapparent as she looked down, her thick lashes casting a shadow onher face.

Tyler chose not to acknowledge her statement and instead said, “I'msure you won't be able to focus in class today. Let's get an IV drip atthe hospital now. You can accompany your sister.”

“Thank you, Tyler."

The car drove away from the school and headed to the hospital.Upon arrival, Tyler accompanied her to receive the IV drip.Coincidentally, they ended up at the same hospital where Naomi wasreceiving treatment. After hearing about Olivia's illness, Naomiexpressed her intention to visit, but Tyler discouraged her, saying thatOlivia would be finished soon.

Naomi respected his wishes and refrained from insisting on visiting.After Tyler hung up the call, Olivia lay in her hospital bed, her feverhaving spiked to 40 degrees celsius. She hadn't even noticed howunwell she was feeling. If not for being taken to the hospital, she mightnot have realized how bad the fever was.

Tyler got up from the couch and walked to her. “Do you feel betternow?”

Determined not to be a burden any longer, Olivia replied withembarrassment, “You don't have to stay with me, Tyler. I'll head homeafter the drip.”

Assessing her condition, he asked, “Are you

sure?”

"Yes, I'm sure.”

Sensing that something was amiss, that she was feeling sorrowful,Tyler didn't leave. Instead, he settled into a chair beside her bed,drawing near to her. His face was in close proximity to hers as heregarded her closely. He asked quietly, near her ear, “Is he thatimportant to you? So important that you'd do anything for him?”
