The Beginning Of All Sins

Tyler had been spending a lot of time with Naomi lately, so it was usual for him to go to the hospital again.

"Buy some ointment for me," he said suddenly.

Linda looked at him, curious. He glanced back at her.

"Oh! Is it for bug bites?" she asked.

Tyler just looked forward without saying anything. Linda understood what that silence meant.

"Alright," she said thoughtfully. "Understood."

Ana had called Olivia over for a talk. As she sipped her tea on the couch, she started, "You probably know why I've been desperately giving you two time alone, right?" Olivia didn't say anything.

Ana put her cup down. "I want you to remain Mrs. Harris, and that means you need to actually do something about it. What kind of wife lets her husband go see her sister every single day?"

Ana laughed sharply. "How could that be disturbing? You're just sending him warm tea."

Olivia had no choice but to agree. "Okay."

"Do you want to call Mr. Tyler?" the driver asked.

Olivia had been thinking about whether to call him for a long time. She frowned and said, "Right."

She dialed the number she hardly ever used.

Tyler was in Naomi's hospital room when his phone rang. He was

would she, of all people, call him? It was perplexing.

Naomi, who was knitting in her bed, noticed his frown. "What's wrong?"

He put his book down on his knees. "Nothing."

Then, he got up and walked out of the room to answer the call.
