Sophie stood there in shock, not knowing how to handle theunexpected and intimate scene before her. She quickly moved closer toTyler, who was standing near the doorway.

“Mr. Tyler, Olivia got drunk, and she wouldn't let my brother go,” Sophieexplained frantically. “We went to buy medicine to help her sober up,but my brother had no choice but to put her in bed in this position.”Tyler remained silent, his gaze still cold and unyielding.

Claude, on the other hand, observed the man standing in the doorway.He noticed Tyler's cold stare

and Sophie's panicked explanations.

Tyler finally spoke up, his voice icy. “Are you done staring?”

Claude didn't expect to see Tyler here. However, he didn’t panic tomeet the person he had not seen for a long time. He calmly replied,"She’s drunk.”

Tyler's cold eyes didn't waver. “You couldn't keep your eyes off herearlier.”

Sophie was growing increasingly anxious, unable to replace a way toresolve the situation. She wanted to speak up on Claude's behalf.Without further hesitation, Tyler reached out his arms. “Give her to me.Sorry to have troubled you.” He maintained a coldly courteousexpression.

Claude, somewhat surprised to see Tyler personally picking up Olivia inthe middle of the night, realized that she must hold significantimportance to him. He smiled suddenly, a bright and friendly smile. “It'sbeen a while, Tyler.”

Tyler looked at Claude, who had disappeared for a couple of years,and said flatly, “Indeed, it has.”

Claude gently placed Olivia's hand down and lifted her from the bed.He carried her toward the door and handed her over to Tyler, who tookher into his arms.

Olivia instinctively stirred slightly in his embrace, but Tyler held herfirmly, his gaze

than ever.

Claude noticed this tension but remained silent. Tyler, with Olivia in hisarms, looked at Sophie and said, “I'll be taking her with me.”

Sophie, knowing her father’s close connection with Tyler's family, didn’twant to offend him and was still recovering from the shocking sceneshe had witnessed. She replied shakily, “O-Okay, Mr. Tyler. Pleasetake care of her.”

With that, Tyler left the room, still expressionless, and made his waytoward the elevator, where the

driver awaited him.

Claude stepped out of the suite, standing at the door as he continuedto watch Tyler.

Tyler turned around after going into the elevator. He was staring atClaude too.

The tension between the two men was palpable, but they botheventually averted their gazes as the elevator doors closed, leaving thetension behind.

Once Tyler and Olivia were gone, only Sophie and Claude remained inthe suite. Claude suddenly spoke, breaking the silence, “That girlseems important to Tyler.”

“Of course! She's Naomi's sister,” Sophie replied.

Claude didn't press the matter further, his eyes becoming gentler."Hmm."

Then, he noticed a few police officers in the corridor. He couldn'tbelieve that Tyler had sent the

authorities to look for Olivia.

Naturally, Sophie and the rest didn’t notice the commotion.
