The Beginning Of All Sins

Olivia's bump was leaning against Tyler's body.

Ana waited patiently for their return, occupied with arranging flowers by the floor-to-ceiling window. As she worked, she carefully selected a fresh lily.

Initially, Ana had hoped that this young, vibrant flower at home would provide a contrast to that sickly, wilting flower and convince Tyler to stay home instead of visiting the hospital daily. However, she quickly realized her mistake. It was up to her to ensure this new flower thrived and fulfilled its purpose.

Wasn't there a bud forming within her now? Everything seemed to be falling into place.

If she didn't showcase her fragrance, how could she hope to attract him?

Since Tyler insisted on remaining at the hospital, Ana resolved to bring the young flower to him each day.

Lost in admiration, Ana savored the delicate scent of the lily. It filled her with joy.

"Ah, it smells heavenly," she exclaimed.

Observing Ana's delight, the maid remarked, "The lilies are exceptionally fresh. They arrived with morning dew, and most of them have buds."

"Indeed, it's like getting two for the price of one. Who could resist such a deal? It's a win-win," Ana replied with a smile, gently handling the blooming lily alongside its unopened bud.

The maid nodded approvingly. "Yes, one is in full bloom, while the other eagerly awaits its turn."

Ana grinned. "Yes, this is perfect. Placing it here, someone is bound to notice."

When Olivia fell into Tyler's arms, her instinct was to protect her belly, and Tyler instinctively grasped her hand as she panicked.

The sudden movement caused her to lose her balance, and her chin landed on his chest, drawing them even closer. Tentatively, she met his gaze.

Tyler remained stoic, his brow furrowed and eyes barely open, avoiding her gaze.

Olivia was cold too as she leaned against him. "Let me go, Tyler."

Tyler abruptly released her hand, causing her to step back hastily.

His gaze remained fixed on her, both to contain their

After a moment, Olivia collected herself and stood before him.

Just then, a knock interrupted their tense silence. Olivia's attention snapped to the door.

"Ms. Naomi is calling, sir," announced Linda from outside.

Tyler turned away to take the call immediately.

Olivia quickly left upon seeing that.

Linda caught a whiff of something amiss but chose not to pry, following Olivia instead.

Adam awaited Olivia downstairs, immediately rushing to her side. "Ma'am."

Gasping for breath, Olivia steadied herself before entering the waiting car.

Concerned for her safety, Linda stepped forward to assist her as she entered the car. "Be careful."
