The Beginning Of All Sins novel (Olivia and Tyler)
Chapter 403

Dylan quickly replied to Tyler, "Okay, they've been waiting. I'll tell them to keep it down and not to drink, smoke, or shout."

Naomi looked a bit better, but she was still weak. Even though it wasn't cold, she sat with a thick blanket over her legs and was followed around by a nurse and a maid.

Emma pushed her wheelchair into a room when she heard this, while Tyler glanced at Olivia, who was standing behind Claude, before entering the room himself.

Olivia watched everyone go into the room, leaving her and Sophie alone in the hallway.

Sophie then said, "You can go in, Claude. Olivia and I need to talk a bit more."

Claude looked at Olivia for a moment before responding, "Okay, take good care of her."

Just then, his secretary, Lilah Nicholson, approached from a distance. After one more look at Olivia, he walked toward Lilah.

Lilah greeted him as she arrived, "They're waiting."

He nodded gracefully.

Some staff were bringing drinks to a private room and noticed Claude as they passed. Two of them whispered, "He's so handsome." Olivia and Sophie overheard this.

Sophie looked at Claude and thought he would be perfect for Olivia if she were still single. He was quite impressive.

She tugged at Olivia, her heart racing, "Let's go, Olivia."

But Olivia wanted to leave. "I should head home," she told Sophie. She needed to go back; she had been out long enough.

Sophie looked at her, wanting to say more.

Olivia continued, "We'll catch up another time." She then gently pulled her hand away from Sophie's.

As Olivia got into the car, the driver asked, "Are we going home?"

She nodded in confirmation.

It was supposed to be a birthday celebration, mostly just drinking and chatting.

The day before, Naomi had confided in Tyler. She explained that staying in the cold hospital ward too long had driven her to desperation, prompting her drastic actions. She wanted to be more social to feel like her old self again.

Tyler didn't say much about her reflection; he just agreed and brought her to the party.

The room wasn't noisy, but it was filled with chatter. As soon as Naomi entered, she became the center of attention.

Everyone was surprised to see her; they thought she would never appear in public again. They were even more shocked to see her arrive with Tyler, commenting quietly on her resilience, especially since Tyler was now married.

Her presence proved she still held her place firmly.
