walked to the door in a moody state, not even bothering to look up.
The maid greeted her, saying, “Ms. Olivia.”
Without lifting her gaze, Olivia responded listlessly.
The maid, sensing Olivia’s mood, refrained from aslding any questions this time. Instead, she said, ”
Rest on the couch, and I’ll pour you a glass of juice.”

Tyler, growing visibly upset, continued, “You don’t want to tell me?”
She shook her head in silence.
Frustrated, Tyler took out his phone and said, “Then I’ll call
