The Beginning Of All Sins

Tyler looked down at Olivia and noticed her pensive expression.

The next morning, he led her downstairs where all the maids were working. As they saw Olivia closely following Tyler and looking nervous, they glanced up.

From then on, the maids didn't dare to stare curiously at Olivia. Instead, they simply greeted, "Sir, Ma'am."

The word 'ma'am' made Olivia shudder, and she was too shy to reply.

Tyler noticed she was falling behind, so he encouraged her, "Look up, Olivia."

At first, Olivia was too nervous to move, but at Tyler's urging, she slowly lifted her head and observed the people around her. Their quiet stares made her feel out of place.

Once she looked around, Tyler continued to lead her downstairs. When they reached the living room, they walked toward the front door where their driver was waiting. He opened the car door for Olivia, showing her where to sit.

As Tyler helped her into the car, his secretary followed them. Inside the car, Olivia clung to Tyler's arm and rested her head on his shoulder, avoiding looking around the unfamiliar setting.

Tyler comforted her, patting her head gently. "Don't be afraid. You know everyone here, they all work for us. Let's go for a walk, okay?"

Olivia nodded in agreement.

Despite being busy with both the project in the fishing village and caring for Olivia, Tyler decided to focus on her for now. The doctor had advised that going out would be good for her, so he planned to take her out for dinner.

Camilla was anxious because it was a formal event and Olivia seemed fragile. She suggested cautiously to Tyler, "Sir, maybe I could take her around instead?"

Tyler looked from Olivia to Camilla and simply said, "No." He seemed unconcerned about the formalities.

Camilla paused, then reluctantly accepted his decision, "Okay..."

As they continued, Tyler played absentmindedly with Olivia's dress while she kept gazing out the window, curious about the world outside. Her eyes lit up as she watched the buildings pass by. Tyler gently fixed her hair, which the wind had tousled, as Camilla watched them silently.

Upon arriving at the dinner, Olivia entered the venue clinging to Tyler's arm. Managers from the fishing village project were waiting at the door.

Surprised to see Olivia, they greeted Tyler, "Mr. Harris." Then, noticing Olivia, they added, "Mrs. Harris."

Olivia stood quietly by Tyler as he greeted them, "Thanks for waiting. Let's go inside."Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
