Chapter 180


    Olivia froze. Tyler kept walking, but he stopped when he felt her grip on his arm. Turning back, he


    looked at her with concern.


    “What’s wrong?” he asked, then followed her gaze to where ude sat.


    Olivia was stunned to see ude there, and it seemed he was looking back at her too. She couldn’t


    believe he hade.


    ude’s expression was calm, almost indifferent. Meanwhile, Olivia’s face remained expressionless,


    unsure of how to react under ude’s intense gaze.


    Tyler watched their expressions for a while before looking at Olivia and saying, “The Pearces are on


    our guest list as well. Should we do a toast with them?” He sounded casual, as if it were just another


    suggestion.


    Olivia couldn’t describe what she was feeling. Facing ude was difficult because it brought her


    rtionship with Tyler into focus, a reality she struggled to confront in his presence.


    ude, however, seemed to notice her distress despite her efforts to appearposed.

    Though she had dressed up for the asion, Olivia felt everything was now in disarray.


    Noticing Olivia’s silence, Tyler pressed, “What’s wrong?”


    Meanwhile, the person who was holding the wine was staring at Olivia too.


    Realizing she couldn’t let herself panic, Olivia mustered some strength and replied, “Nothing, I’m just


    tired. I’d like to take a rest. Can we do the toastter, Tyler?”


    But Tyler wasn’t oblivious to her evasive behavior. He nced between Olivia and ude, sensing the


    tension.


    “We’re greeting the guests now. Let’s finish the toast first,” he insisted firmly, denying her request


    outright.


    Feeling defeated, Olivia fell silent.


    Tyler’s eyes turned cold as he said, “Let’s go,” leading her to another table.


    ‘She’d had enough today,‘ he thought, hoping Olivia would realize where she stood, and perhaps


    ude too.


    As if nothing had happened, Tyler greeted the guests cheerily.


    Olivia, on the other hand, trailed along, her mind elsewhere. ude had been staring at her, like a knife


    slicing her continuously.


    Finally, they reached ude’s table. Olivia kept her eyes down, avoiding his eyes. ude briefly


    nced away before rising to Tyler’s toast.

    Tyler toasted to ude first. “Thanks foring.”


    ude raised his ss. “It’s my honor. It’s your big day after all. How can I note?”


    Tyler smiled, taking a light sip of his wine. “Then I won’t say more since we know each other well.


    Enjoy.” He then drank half a ss of the wine that he had been holding but had barely touched.


    ude drained his ss in response, then turned his gaze to Olivia. A faint smile yed on his lips as


    he addressed Tyler, “Congrattions. I hope the two of you have many happy days ahead and build a


    wonderful family together.”


    Tyler epted the well–wishes with a smile. “Thanks,” he said, turning to Olivia. “Let’s go.”
