Chapter 15
Olivia couldn’t believe that Tyler would bring up such a private matter in public.
While he was being caring, the timing seemed inappropriate.
She felt torn about whether she should leave or accept the ointment. After a long
silence, her cheeks began to flush, the redness spreading to her ears.
Tyler could tell what she was thinking about. He reassured her, saying, “It’s just a
normal ointment. You don’t need to be embarrassed.”
Olivia wasted no more time hesitating after his reassurance. She quickly reached
out to take the ointment from his hand and said, “I’m going outside for some fresh
air, Tyler.”
He withdrew his hand, looking indifferent, and replied, “Sure, go ahead.”
The ointment felt awkward in Olivia’s hand. She couldn’t just toss it away, but
keeping it felt equally
uncomfortable.
When Tyler returned to the ward, he found Naomi engrossed in a conversation
with her parents.
Despite being ill, Naomi still took great care of her appearance, dressing nicely
even without makeup. She was currently playfully chatting with her parents,
appearing quite happy, like a little girl.
In contrast, Olivia had always been the quiet one.
Tyler had always been aware of her existence as Naomi’s sister. She was the
unacknowledged, illegitimate child. On the day of their engagement, how old had
she been when he visited the Jones?
She had been quite young at the time, standing on the sidelines, almost invisible.
He had glimpsed her a few times since then. She always kept her distance,
watching from afar.
In contrast to the beloved Naomi, Olivia had been almost invisible within the
family.
Tyler recalled that she had been skinny and fair—skinned.
He clenched his fists by his sides. Not only was her skin fair, but it also seened
delicate, prone to bruising. Like a freshly bloomed flower, easily crushed with a
single touch.
At night, after returning home with Mrs. Jones and her father, Olivia found a text
message on her phone from Jacob. He informed her that he had been hired by
the Harris Group.
When she saw the text, she couldn’t help but break into a smile. However, her
expression quickly shifted to one of shock, and she tightly gripped her phone.
Suddenly, there was a knock on her bedroom door. Olivia’s body tensed at the
sound, and she leaned against the door, nervously eyeing it while clutching her
phone.
Mrs. Jones had been concerned about Olivia’s continued contact with Jacob, so
she asked, “Aren’t you.

going to sleep yet, Olivia?”

Olivia wiped away her tears and replied, “Yes, I’m going to bed.” She promptly
switched off the room lights.
Mrs. Jones only left her room once she noticed the lights were turned off.
Over the next few days, Olivia either attended school or worked her part-time
job. She deliberately avoided any contact with Tyler and had yet to cross paths
with Jacob at school.
Sophie had informed her that Jacob was busy with work, to the point where he
couldn’t attend school. Olivia felt relieved upon hearing this news,

As had been her routine for the past
few days, after attending her classes,
Olivia hurried to her part- time job at
the hotel. Once she changed into her

Inside the room, Tyler was leaning
back and listening to the person
beside him. He looked up suddenly
when he heard the voice and
immediately locked eyes with her.

“Olivia?” He frowned and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

She was dressed in the hotel uniform,
wearing a tube top with a fitted
jacket, and a snug mini skirt that
showcased her slender legs. She had
black stockings on her feet and her
hair was tied up, revealing her soft,
fair, and cute face. The content is on

In addition to Tyler, there were several other people in the private room, and they
all turned their attention to Olivia with heightened interest.
They resembled a group of hungry predators eyeing a delectable piece of meat.
