The Beginning Of All Sins

Sophie knew she was right about Claude contacting Olivia. "Olivia, don't listen to what others say about him. It's not true."

Olivia wasn't sure how to feel. She pulled back her hand and replied, "I'm not sure, Soof."

This response caught Sophie off guard.

Trying to escape the conversation, Olivia said, "I have to go." She then walked toward the room where Ana was, without looking back at Sophie.

When Olivia entered, Ana was enjoying some tea and setting up for a card game. Ana asked, "Done chatting already?"

Olivia approached her and answered, "Yes, just a quick catch-up."

With a relaxed tone, Ana suggested, "We're about to play cards. Why don't you grab something to eat?"

"Okay, Mom," Olivia responded.

Ana put her cup down and started dealing the cards.

It was around six in the evening when they finished playing. The group decided to head out for dinner. As they left the room, they ran into Tyler.

Tyler was dressed in a sharp black suit, standing out with his distinct features and piercing eyes. He was there for a business dinner.

Olivia was surprised to see him and stood silently next to Ana.

Ana greeted him with a smile and teased, "What a coincidence! Did you come looking for Olivia?"

Tyler's business associates smiled at Olivia, recognizing her as his wife.

Tyler, always respectful to Ana in public, remained composed and asked, "Having a good time with your friends?"

Ana explained, "Yes, I thought Olivia might get bored at home, so I brought her out."

"Alright, I'll leave you to it," Tyler responded.

Ana quickly added, "We're planning more card games later, but since you're here and Olivia might be getting bored, why not take her with you?" Olivia tensed up at the suggestion. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Ana, still smiling, didn't wait for Tyler's response. She turned to Olivia and said, "Go on."

Tyler, taken aback by Ana's assertiveness, momentarily showed a stern expression.

As everyone watched, Ana looked at Tyler and prompted, "What do you think, Tyler?" Tyler agreed, "Of course."

Ana told Olivia again, "Go on."

Hesitating, Olivia slowly walked over to Tyler. He then asked her, "We're playing some games tonight. Are you sure you want to come along?"
