The Beginning Of All Sins novel (Olivia and Tyler) novel Chapter 462

However, Tyler released his fist immediately. He glanced at Olivia as he took the box. "What do you plan to do about this?"

He thought she would reject it, but she stretched her hand to him. "Give it to me, Tyler. I'll deal with it myself."

He fell into a momentary silence before saying, "Sure."

He then handed her the box.

Olivia thought the Harrises only cared about the baby's health, while Claude got her a bracelet for her safety. Uncertain of his intentions, she clutched the box tightly.

Tyler noticed how tightly she held onto it, recognizing its significance to her. "Seems like the rumor hasn't altered your impression of him."

To that, she said, "Perhaps he's... misunderstood."

She instantly regretted uttering those words, but she clearly couldn't turn back time. She felt as if she were treading into a minefield.

Tyler was digesting what she said, unable to shake the idea that she believed Claude was misunderstood.

"Misunderstood? Who told you that? Do you think we've treated him unfairly?"

"I was merely speculating, Tyler," she quickly clarified, hoping to move past the topic.

However, he continued to gaze at her intently. "Do you understand the gravest taboo in our company?"

His tone was icy. "Those who oppose us. So mind your position and conduct."

Olivia took a deep breath, though she didn't reveal her inner turmoil—she silently calmed herself.

Tyler then averted his gaze, staring straight ahead.
