She shifted her gaze toward Nathaniel, wondering if Olivia had romantic feelings for him given the shy look she had just given him.

Olivia appeared visibly uncomfortable, but it was unclear if it was due to guilt from withholding the truth from Christina or from being exposed.

She put down her fork and gave Christina a pitiful look. “Please don’t misunderstand, Christina,” Olivial said. “Mom has always treated me like her own, and Aunt Julia and I are as close as family.”

Christina narrowed her eyes. When did I mention misunderstanding anything? Isn’t Olivia giving herself away by saying that?

“Let’s just cat,” she said, brushing aside the unpleasant interlude.

After dinner. Christina and Nathaniel went upstairs to retire for the night while Olivia remained downstairs in the living room on the pretext of watching television.

The house fell into an eerie silence as the housekeeper turned off all the lights around midnight.

Olivia stole a glance at the stairs, then scanned her surroundings before making her way toward them.

She had been paying attention to the commotion upstairs and knew that Nathaniel was probably still in his study.

Olivia poured a glass of warm milk and made her way upstairs.

The second floor was expansive and dimly lit, except for the study, where a soft silver light spilled into the hallway.

Olivia felt nervous as she approached the door with the glass of milk.

Before entering the study, she tugged at the collar of her pajamas and bit her lip, trying to make herself appear weak and pitiful.
