Tyler took a long look at her. "You need some rest."

"Have you been with Naomi?"

Tyler's expression darkened. "I went to your house with Naomi and then took her back to the hospital."

Olivia paused, processing this information. "It's nice you could spend time with Naomi. She probably felt better."

She didn't say much because she knew Tyler had been seeing Naomi, which seemed normal. But thinking about her home, she realized how long she had been away. She felt a pang of jealousy and longing.

He studied her face for a while, then turned and walked away.

Olivia just stood there, her expression unreadable.

The next morning, Hillary called. "Tyler brought Naomi home yesterday. Why didn't you come?"

Olivia was confused by the question. "He didn't mention he was going there," she replied honestly.

That surprised Hillary. After a pause, she smiled. "No worries. I'll send someone to pick you up and make you something to eat."

"Okay," Olivia responded, a word she was used to say often.

"Alright, I'll let you rest then," Hillary said, ending the call with a smirk.

"Okay, Aunt Hillary."

After hanging up, Olivia's face turned serious. She knew Hillary's tactics too well.

Suddenly feeling uneasy, Olivia pressed her lips together. Then her phone buzzed with a message from Claude.

[Are you up? The weather is nice today. Go see the sunflowers outside. They bloomed.]

Olivia glanced at the balcony. After some time, she walked over and looked down.

The garden was a sea of gold. The vibrant colors stunned her, and the sunny weather made everything shine even brighter. She stood there, lost in the view.

That same morning, Tyler stepped out of the study and saw Alisa heading into Olivia's room with breakfast.

"Mr. Tyler," she greeted him.

He looked her way. "Has Olivia woken up yet?"

"I don't think so, sir," Alisa replied.
