The Beginning Of All Sins novel (Olivia and Tyler) novel Chapter 451

Olivia was about to step into the car when Ana's call came through. She answered promptly. "Hi, Mom."

"Did you deliver it to him?"

"Yes," she replied after a brief pause.

Ana's suspicion heightened at the momentary silence. "Don't make me call the Harris Group to verify."

"He's not at his office, Mom. I called him, and he instructed me to leave it at the front desk."

"And now you're leaving," Ana noted.

Olivia glanced down. "Yes."

"You're not leaving. The purpose of afternoon tea is to personally hand it to him!"

After a moment of silence, Ana's tone hardened. "Do you understand me?!"

Olivia snapped out of her daze. "R-Right! I understand, Mom."

"Good. Goodbye."

The call ended. The driver glanced at Olivia, asking tentatively, "Should we head back?"

"No. We'll wait here."

Confused, the driver looked at her.

The nurse admired Naomi's knitting and exclaimed, "Ms. Naomi, your knitting is exquisite!"

"Thank you! I want to make something for Olivia and my parents since, well, I don't have much else to do," she said, smiling faintly.

The nurse offered some assistance, and soon it seemed her work was nearly complete.

Tyler's phone rang again. Naomi glanced at the screen as Tyler also looked at it.

It was Ana.

He stared at the screen for a long moment.
