The Beginning Of All Sins novel (Olivia and Tyler) novel Chapter 345

Chapter 345 

Claude was gently caressing Olivia’s hand when he noticed Sophie staring at them with a shocked expression. 

He quickly removed his hand and stepped in front of Olivia. “Sophie, what are you doing here?” 

Sophie was confused. She knew Olivia was married to Tyler and was expecting his child. So why was her cousin so close to Olivia? 

“Don’t worry about it, Sophie,” Claude said firmly. 

Sophie could only see a glimpse of Olivia’s shirt from behind Claude. Angry and confused, she shouted, “Claude! How could you? Olivia is with Tyler Harris, of all people!” 

Olivia’s heart was pounding, but she stayed quiet. 

“She’s pregnant!” Sophie added, hoping to make her brother see reason. 

But Claude remained calm. “Like I said, this isn’t your concern.” 

At that moment, a man walked up behind Sophie. 

It was Jacob Reeves. His expression turned icy when he saw Olivia hidden behind Claude. He stepped back and stood by Sophie, clearly aligning himself with her. 

Sophie was baffled. She had no idea why Claude had wanted her to invite Olivia to lunch, but she had not seen her friend for a while and wanted to drop by for a moment while on a date with Jacob. Who would have thought she would come just in time to catch him almost kissing Olivia?! 

From the small gap between Claude’s arm and his body, Olivia saw Jacob. He was very close to Sophie, but Olivia couldn’t see his face clearly. 

She didn’t mind, though. Jacob was just an old friend to her now, and she was surprisingly okay with seeing him there. 

The place was dimly lit with a soft orange–yellow light that bathed the four of them. Being the eldest, Claude took charge and said to Jacob, “Please leave us alone for a moment.” Jacob fell silent for a while, then nodded and answered respectfully, “Okay, Mr. Claude.”
