Chapter 56

The reason was that Olivia had no idea what their relationship was. Itseemed that relationships could become complicated as soon as sexwas involved.

“Why couldn't you tell me?” he asked. “It's not your fault. On thecontrary, it's Naomi and me who put you in this position.”

His words were whispered into her ear, creating an intimateatmosphere between them.

Olivia could only cry weakly in his embrace.

When she eventually looked up, their eyes locked onto each other.Neither could look away from the other's gaze.

The soft lighting illuminated her teary face in the dim room, creating aromantic ambiance.

As Tyler instinctively leaned closer to her lips, she dodged his advance.They remained silent, lost in their thoughts.

She felt pain as she looked down, while he continued to stare at herface.

However, after a few moments of hesitation, he leaned in and kissedher lips.

They had never kissed outside the bedroom before. Olivia was stillcrying, and her tears mingled with their kiss. Nevertheless, he kissedher even more passionately, as if trying to erase the saltiness of hertears.

It felt like he was comforting her.

The

school handled the matter swiftly. All news about it disappeared afterthat night.

The following morning, Olivia couldn't replace any news about the incidenton the school forum. She appeared tired as she sat down at the diningtable. The maid served her a glass of warm milk.

Meanwhile, Tyler sat across from her and spoke, “Drink the milk. I'vedealt with. the school. Nobody will bring it up again.”

Her downcast expression flickered when she heard his words. Softly,she replied, “Got it,” before taking a sip of the milk.

He refrained from speaking further, merely observing her batteredcountenance as they both ate breakfast.

Concerned that his presence might affect her, Tyler didn't arrange forhis driver to take her to school.

The stares she received at school were no longer as piercing, and thegossip had. dissipated.

While she was lost in thought on her way to class, Sophie patted hershoulder from behind.

“Olivia, the school released a statement stating that the person whodropped your off at school was a family member. They advocated forjustice on your behalf.”

For some reason, Olivia couldn't seem to brighten up. She repliedgloomily,” That's great.”

Sophie, on the other hand, was thrilled. “Now everyone knows that youcome from a wealthy family!”

came

Olivia had typically worked part-time, leading most people to from anaverage family. When they saw those pictures, they jumped to theconclusion that she had a sugar daddy. Nobody had ever suspected itmight be a family member dropping her off.

Sophie continued, “Mr. Tyler is family, after all. They would've beenshocked if they knew it was Tyler in the car.”

Tyler was a significant contributor to the school, with the Harris familymaking substantial annual donations.

Olivia felt weary of Sophie's constant chatter and mumbled to herself,“As long as the misunderstanding is gone now.”

Sophie gripped her shoulders, trying to comfort her. “Don’t worry,nobody dares to gossip about you again.”

Olivia merely gave a brief acknowledgment.

After walking together for a while, they parted ways at a fork in thepath, each heading in a different direction.

Olivia went to the lab and felt anxious when she arrived. However, toher surprise, the girls who had requested to change teams the previousday quickly apologized to her. They admitted they had been misled bythe pictures.

Her fear lessened when they apologized, and she softly responded,“It's okay.”

Her only hope now was for the incident to fade away as quickly aspossible, leaving no trace behind.

She remained in the lab, conducting experiments until 9 P.M.. By thetime she

left, it was pitch dark outside, and a heavy rain was pouring down.Realizing she hadn't brought an umbrella, she reluctantly decided toshare one with a girl from the lab on the way to the school entrance.The rainstorm was fierce, rendering the street vendor’s umbrellasuseless.

As she contemplated whether to call the maid to inform her of her latereturn, her phone rang. The caller's name read “Tyler” on the screen,causing her heart to skip a beat. After a few moments of hesitation, sheanswered, her tone somber, Tyler.”

“Are you still at school?” came Tyler's voice.

At the entrance, there were only a few people around at that moment.Standing in a dark corner and getting soaked in the rain, she replied,“Yes, I might be home late.”

To her surprise, Tyler responded, “I thought you didn’t bring anumbrella, so I came to pick you up.”

As soon as he said that, a black car slowly pulled over in front of her.Olivia stared at the car. After a moment of silence, she put down herphone and got into the car, unaware that someone stood 100 metersaway from her, holding an umbrella in the dark and watching her everymove.

The car door closed, and she found herself sitting next to Tyler, with theloud noise of the rain now blocked by the car doors. The inside of thecar was quiet, and neither of them spoke.

A soft, warm light above the car illuminated their surroundings as theydrove away from the school.

After they departed, the person who had been watching Olivia from adistance remained motionless in the dark.

At midnight in the Sandalwood Palace, Olivia lay in Tyler's bed aftertaking a shower.
