The Beginning Of All Sins

Chapter 405



The nurses were busy taking care of Naomi.

Tyler lit a candle that smelled nice and calming. Naomi had been looking at him since she got into bed. She said, "Don't be mad at Olivia, Tyler. I'll talk to her about Claude." She was referring to what happened earlier that day.

Tyler didn't face her as he lit the candle and simply responded, "Whatever." He sounded like he didn't care at all.

Then he faced her. "I lit a candle for you. Try to go to sleep early tonight." The candle was supposed to help with her insomnia.

Naomi was surprised that he didn't want to discuss the issue further, but she nodded and smiled. "Mm- hmm, I will."

His eyes looked cold. "Alright. You don't need me to stay until you fall asleep, do you?"

In the past, he would wait until she was asleep before leaving, but it seemed he didn't plan to do that tonight.

Naomi felt secretly upset by his cold attitude and didn't say anything.

Seeing her quiet, Tyler said, "If you want, I'll stay while you fall asleep."

Naomi became nervous at his cold tone. "It's okay. It's late, you should head home."

He agreed coldly and then left the room, leaving her alone in bed. She sat there, looking at her lonely shadow on the floor.

Tyler went straight home. He looked out into the dark night through the window.

It was midnight when his phone rang. He looked at it and waited a bit before answering.

Claude's voice sounded from the other end. "I'm sorry for calling so late, Tyler. I hope I'm not bothering you."

Tyler leaned back and gave a slight smile. "You're not bothering me."

"I want to explain what happened with Olivia and me today."

Tyler kept smiling, now even more so. "You don't need to explain."

Claude laughed. "I guess you trust her, right?"

"Mm-hmm, of course I do," Tyler replied. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

"That's good. We didn't want you to get the wrong idea. I'll take you out for a meal sometime, okay?"

"Sure."

They talked calmly, and Claude ended the call with, "I won't trouble you anymore."

"Okay."

Tyler's smile disappeared as soon as he hung up.

Tyler arrived home to a dark house.

He went straight to his bedroom, surprising the maids who thought he would go to his study or perhaps wake up Olivia, given his usual routine. Olivia was half-asleep when she opened her eyes.
