Olivia was unsure if Tyler was hinting at something. Did he mean it was inappropriate? She couldn't tell if she interpreted it wrong.
After pondering for a moment, she finally spoke, "I know you meant to bring Naomi here, Tyler. I'm just a distraction. She's going back to the hospital, and the journalists aren't around. I'll take a different car."
Tyler seemed lost in thought after her words. After a pause, he replied, "Sure, do whatever you want."
He handed her the small box, but Olivia didn't accept it. "Give this to me if Naomi doesn't like it. I don't want you two to have regrets. I think she has wanted this love locket for a long time. Consider this my blessing for both of you."
She didn't wait for his response and left immediately.
Tyler watched her leave with a cold expression.
Meanwhile, Naomi was on her way to another car but noticed Olivia leaving Tyler's car. Confused, she watched Olivia approach.
"I'll ride in this car, Naomi," Olivia said mechanically, maintaining her distance.
Naomi, concerned, asked, "What happened, Olivia? Why did you leave Tyler's car?"
"I think it's better if you ride with Tyler. I'm tired, so I'm getting in," Olivia said, without looking at Naomi, and got in the car.
Naomi turned, wanting to say more, but Linda intervened. "Let's get you to Mr. Tyler's car."
