The Beginning Of All Sins

It only took a day for Olivia to recover. She had always been healthy and rarely got a fever or a cold.

Feeling fine the next morning, Olivia was ready to go to school. However, Tyler, worried that she might not be completely healed, insisted that she take the day off. He had many meetings and couldn’t stay with her, so he instructed the maid to take good care of Olivia.

Standing at the door, Olivia protested, saying that she just had a cold and could go to school. She saw the concern in Tyler’s eyes and added, “I’ll take good care of myself, Tyler. Don’t worry.”

The weather was warm that day, and Tyler, in all seriousness, warned the maid, “Keep an eye on the cold drinks at home. I’ll be checking if any bottles are missing.”

The maid understood that he was taking care of Olivia as if she were his sister, so she took his words seriously. “Sure, Mr. Tyler. I’ll take good care of her.”

Olivia didn’t expect Tyler to be so serious and strict. Flustered, she dared not say anything.

Shortly after Tyler left, the phone rang in the living room. The maid answered it, and Olivia followed her to see what was happening.

The maid hung up the phone and informed Olivia, “Ms. Olivia, Ms. Maisy would like to invite you to a family dinner at the Harris residence.”

Olivia wasn’t given the chance to decline or accept the invitation. Ana’s car arrived at Sandalwood Palace half an hour later.

Before leaving, Olivia texted Tyler to let him know about the invitation from Maisy. Tyler replied within two minutes, saying, “Go ahead, I’ll pick you up.” Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

She hesitated for a moment but ultimately followed his advice.

When Ana’s car arrived, Olivia went to the door with the maid. Ana remained in the car, watching Olivia. “Get in, Olivia.”

She spoke gently, but to Olivia, it sounded like a sickle that would take her life.

After some consideration, Olivia agreed, saying, “Okay.”

Ana seemed pleased that Olivia understood her limits.

However, Olivia hesitated again and said, “Let me change.”

Ana agreed, nodding. “Go ahead,‘

Olivia went upstairs. She was sweating and even her palms were sweaty when she reached her room.

When she returned, the driver opened the car door for her. Ana remained seated, waiting for her.

Olivia approached the car cautiously, feeling as if she were walking into a cage. Once inside, she remained on guard.

Ana spoke, “It’s been a day. I’m sure you’ve thought through what I said the other day.”

Olivia couldn’t betray Naomi or offend Ana. She felt like she was under intense scrutiny. Her lips quivered before she responded, “It’s my pleasure to accompany Ms. Maisy.”

Ana smiled upon hearing this, “You’re wise.” After a brief pause, she continued, “Tonight is not an ordinary occasion. Relatives will be attending the dinner.”

It was a legitimate family dinner. Olivia couldn’t help but wonder about her identity and why she had been invited to the Harris family dinner.
