Chapter 89

“No matter what, you're guilty of what happened to Naomil”

Darren grabbed Julia. “Forget it, Julia. She didn't do it on purpose!”

“I'd Kill her if she did!”

Darren wanted to say more, but he chose to remain silent, realizing thathe had the least right to speak in this matter. He understood Julia'sanger and vengeance.

Observing the situation, Tyler, who had been quietly watching, decidedto approach.

Seeing Tyler, Darren looked relieved, hoping that he might bring somesense into the situation. He exclaimed, “Tyler is here.”

Julia, her anger subsiding, walked toward Tyler, her voice tremblingwith worry.” Tyler, is Naomi awake? When will she wake up?” All therage that had filled her moments ago vanished without a trace,replaced by deep concern.

He replied, “We don't know yet.”

Julia's worry intensified. “Will she stay in a coma?”

“Not sure.”

Panicking, Julia exclaimed, “Oh, no! What do we do now?”

While she was in distress, Tyler's gaze shifted toward Olivia. Julianoticed his diverted attention and followed his gaze.

Realizing that Tyler had noticed her, Julia felt awkward about theconfrontation that had taken place in his presence. She understood thatfamily matters should not be aired in front of outsiders, but she felt itwas none of his business. Besides, she did not accuse Olivia.

Tyler broke the silence by providing some information. “Naomi's allergymight not be triggered by animal hair. They're still investigating.”

Julia was taken aback by his unexpected statement. She had expectedhim to side with her, but his response was neutral and factual. He didnot take anyone's side; instead, he merely stated the current situation.Julia now felt uncomfortable stirring up a commotion in front of Tyler.She said awkwardly, “I know I was too impulsive. Is the doctor lookingfor the cause?”

“We'll see when Naomi wakes up.” With that, Tyler glanced at Oliviabriefly, then averted his gaze and left the area as his secretary arrived.They were likely

discussing a new treatment plan for Naomi.

Once Tyler had departed, Julia's attention returned to Olivia.Concerned that Julia might lash out again, Darren grabbed her. “Okay,Naomi's life is our top priority now. Stop it. It was terrible that Tylerwitnessed all of this.”

Indeed, julia’s earlier words had been harsh and hurtful. However, shefirmly believed that Naomi belonged to the Harris family, and no onecould threaten her position.

Despite their prestigious reputation, the Jones family didn’t want tocreate a

public spectacle. Julia managed to calm down and walked quickly tothe doctor's office.

Darren remained behind, looking troubled. He approached Olivia, whohad a swollen cheek from the earlier slap, and said, “Olivia, althoughJulia was impulsive, she was just worried. Forgive her.”

It was a rare moment for Darren to offer Olivia comfort, but his wordslacked warmth. Olivia remained composed, showing no signs of pain asshe responded, " I know.”

Darren sighed and left her alone. That was the only thing he could offerher.
