Chapter 63
Olivia initially had a smile on her face, but it soon froze when she heard the unexpected question from the maid.
Noticing her sudden silence, the maid inquired,
what’s w
Quickly composing herself, Olivia replied, “Nothing.”
Having been granted a day off from school by Tyler, Olivia found herself with little to do after breakfast.
She accompanied the maid to the supermarket, but on their way back, the maid realized that they had dropped something. She asked Olivia to head inside while she continued the search for the missing item.
Standing at the door, Olivia considered asking the maid to give up the search but ultimately kept her silence. She entered the house carrying the grocery bags.
However, upon arriving in the lobby, she was surprised to find a well–dressed woman sitting on the couch, engrossed in reading the newspaper. There was no one else around, and the atmosphere was rather quiet.
Unsure of who this woman might be, Olivia decided to approach her and greeted her with a friendly, “Hello.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The woman glanced up from the newspaper and studied Olivia for a moment.
Although Olivia didn’t recognize the woman, her instincts told her that she
should behave hospitably. “I’ll get you a glass of water,” she offered and quickly headed to the kitchen. Soon, she returned with a glass of water, which she placed in front of the woman.
“Here you go, this is for you.”
The woman looked at Olivia for a while but refrained from asking further questions, as Olivia had not disclosed her full name. Instead, she inquired, “I’ve never seen you before. What’s your name?”
“I’m Olivia,” she replied without revealing her last name.
Satisfied with the response, the woman continued, “What a good girl. What’s your relationship with Tyler?”
This question made Olivia feel uneasy. After careful consideration, she replied, ” I’m staying here for the time being.”
The woman smiled, seemingly understanding Olivia’s reluctance to share more. Don’t worry, I’m just visiting. Go ahead with your own thing.”
Since Olivia had no idea who this woman was, she didn’t have much to discuss. She decided to go upstairs to her room. However, the maid returned home before she could reach her destination.
When the maid spotted the woman sitting there, she was taken aback, and the bag she was holding fell to the floor. With a trembling voice, she stammered, “M- Mrs. Harris?”
Olivia shivered upon hearing that name and stared at the woman in disbelief. Mrs. Harris could only refer to Tyler’s mother.
Her heart raced, and she felt frozen in place.
Ana Morin, however, remained composed. She glanced at the maid, who was standing by the door, and calmly remarked, “I came to visit Tyler. I didn’t see him, but I met a lady friend.”
The maid, out of panic, didn’t tell who Olivia was.
Tyler hurried home within half an hour. As soon as he arrived, Ana Morin wasted no time and asked, “Who’s that young lady? Your new girlfriend?”
