The Beginning Of All Sins novel (Olivia and Tyler)
Chapter 434

Olivia didn't respond to that, so Claude said gently, "It's okay. I just wanted to talk to you."

"Did you love Morgan?" Olivia asked.

There was only a long silence from Claude. Frustrated by his vague response, Olivia hung up the phone.

Claude was surprised by her action. He put his phone down, his eyes filled with sadness, and he forced a sad smile.

His secretary noticed his mood and cautiously said, "Mr. Claude... I don't think that's a good idea."

Claude just looked at her, then walked around the room with a thoughtful expression.

After he spoke to the media, Claude stayed in the family's vineyard. Sophie and the rest of his family tried to reach him, but they knew he often became unreachable when it involved Morgan. Sophie was worried about him. She decided to talk to Olivia, feeling she might be able to reach him.

The Harrises ignored all the rumors, especially Ana. She kept busy with her usual activities, such as yoga, facials, arranging flowers, and having tea with friends.

One day, Ana and Olivia were stopped by Sophie in the corridor of a clubhouse. Ana was ahead, and Olivia was following behind her. When Olivia heard Sophie call her name, she stopped and waited quietly. Ana didn't like the Pearces much but kept her cool. Her friends were there too, and they all watched as Sophie approached them.

Ignoring the onlookers, Sophie said to Ana, "Ms. Ana, I'd like to speak to Olivia."

Ana hesitated but allowed it, saying, "Okay, go ahead." She and her friends then walked toward the tea room.

Once they left, Olivia looked at Sophie, ready to leave if not needed. She didn't want to get involved, so she said, "Do you need help? If not-"

But before she could excuse herself, Sophie rushed over and took her hand. "Did Claude contact you? It's urgent that we speak to him. I came here because I heard you would be here with Ms. Ana."

Olivia didn't know what to say, but then Sophie continued, "Olivia, he would surely have contacted you. Can you please tell me where he is?"

Seeing how anxious Sohie was, Olivia thought about it and then said, "He called me, but I don't know where he is."

"He did?"

Olivia nodded hesitantly.
