The maid suddenly remembered that she had taken the medication outof Olivia's bag and quickly explained, “Sir, I removed it from Ms. Olivia'sbag.”

His expression turned cold. “Is she upstairs?"

She quickly stood up and stammered, “T-Tyler.”

He stood in the doorway, his back to the light, casting a shadow overhis stern face. Olivia was bewildered by his sudden appearance andhis serious expression.

@ Tyler, holding something in his hand, asked curtly, “What's this?"Olivia's eyes widened as she saw what he was holding. Emotionssurged within her, and she rushed toward him, desperately trying totake it from him. However, he deftly lifted it out of her reach, dodgingher attempt.

“Do you understand the harm this could cause to your body?” heinterrupted.

Olivia had thought it was just a regular supplement, and her shynessprevented her from looking at him directly. Her cheeks were burning asshe admitted, “I really didn’t know.”

Although Tyler was furious upon discovering the medication, hemanaged to restrain his anger. With patience, he told Olivia, “Olivia,conceiving should happen naturally. Using something like this isextreme, and I don’t want to see such things at home again.Remember that.”

“O—Okay,” she replied timidly.

He looked away coldly and left the room, the oppressive atmospheredissipating with his departure.
