The Beginning Of All Sins

The doctor responded to Tyler’s question, saying, “She doesn’t need a drip. I’ll give her medicine.”

Olivia was concerned about taking medicine because she had heard that women shouldn’t take it when trying to get pregnant, as it might harm the child. Even though she wasn’t pregnant at the moment, she worried about the potential consequences in the future.

However, before she could voice her concerns, Tyler decided, “Let’s get her some medicine then,” and instructed the doctor accordingly.

He didn’t look at Olivia or take her thoughts into consideration, simply telling the doctor what to do.

As the doctor prepared the medicine, Olivia stayed quiet, unable to express her worries.

Later, the maid administered the medicine, causing Olivia to feel drowsy almost immediately.

Tyler, however, remained by her side. The maid tried to reassure him, saying, “Mr. Tyler, Ms. Olivia

will be fine. I’ll take care of her.”

After observing Olivia’s face, Tyler finally stood up, telling the maid, “Okay, take good care of her.”

He left her room.

Olivia’s fever began to subside in the afternoon. When she woke up, the room was dimly lit, and she heard a voice nearby.

“You’re up?“.

Startled by the voice, Olivia froze. The lights were then switched on, revealing Tyler sitting beside her bed. He had a book on his lap, which he placed on the nightstand after turning on the lights.

“T–Tyler, why are you here?”

Tyler stretched his body after sitting for a while. “I’m worried that your fever might come back, so I

sat here for a while.”

“It’s okay, I’m really fine.” Since her fever had subsided, her voice was no longer hoarse; it sounded

soft now.

Tyler gently lifted her face. “Let me see if your cheeks are still burning.”

Initially, Olivia looked down, but when he raised her face, she appeared less pale now. There was color in her cheeks. As he held her chin, he could feel the temperature of her skin.

“The fever’s really gone now. Don’t worry,”

He removed his hand from her chin when he heard that. He said softly, “It’s great that you’re fine.” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

However, they were still looking at each other. Olivia quickly looked away, but he hugged her while sighing.

In his embrace, Olivia felt weak: Her face leaned toward him, and her lips appeared pale.

Tyler buried his face in her hair, planting a gentle kiss on her head, “Take the medicine again later so that the fever won’t come back.”

She agreed.

In that moment, they resembled a loving couple, their shadows intertwined beneath the soft glow of the lights,

However, in reality, they were not even a couple,

Tyler played with her hair on her shoulder, speaking and acting as if he pitied her.

As she lay there, Olivia recalled the last time someone had hugged her when she was sick, which was before her mother had passed away.

In the next second, she buried her face in his chest.
