The Beginning Of All Sins

Olivia and Tyler were both in the ward, while Naomi fainted just outside. The answer became clear upon careful consideration

Hillary noticed Tyler’s differential treatment of Olivia, especially given their intimate relations. Such closeness inevitably fostered feelings between them

Naturally, she understood that. With Olivia now pregnant, Hillary felt compelled to intervene. She refused to let an illegitimate daughter usurp her own. She resolved to dispel any delusions Olivia harbored.

Yet, despite Tyler’s differential treatment of Olivia, his affection for Naomi remained unmatched. Hillary grinned as she thought about that.

Today was Naomi and Tyler’s anniversary. Naomi’s frail health prevented her from going anywhere, so they celebrated in the hospital ward.

Knowing Naomi’s love for raw fish and sushi, Tyler arranged for the hospital to host the best Japanese cuisine chef and the pastry chef from their favorite university hangout.

The sterile ward transformed into a bustling restaurant.

Naomi even dressed up for the occasion, donning a dress and heels. Despite her illness, she applied

makeup, sitting elegantly at the dining table.

Tyler sat across from her and asked, “Do you feel okay?”

She was over the moon, failing to hide her smile. “Yes, I’m good. I’ve never felt as good as I am today.”

She sat beneath the light, basking in Tyler’s handsome face and elegance. Despite years together, she still felt as if she were dreaming, overwhelmed with happiness whenever she saw him.

Naomi gazed at the plate before her, noticing a card resting atop it. Beside the card lay a dewy rose petal,

which she picked up and examined.

“May we be happy every day‘ was written on the card.

After reading it, she smiled and chanted inwardly, “May we be happy every day…

She was smiling like a little girl despite being tortured by her illness for years.

“Every day,” she said.

“Mm–hmm, every day,” Tyler said.

Naomi recalled something “I used to love playing tennis. You took me to a tennis match the year we graduated. Do you remember the tennis player I like? She wrote to congratulate us today.”

She handed him an envelope. “Look”

Tyler took it and opened the envelope, revealing not a letter but a photograph. It depicted them at a Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Naomi sported a tennis outfit, exuding vitality with her healthy rosy cheeks and bright eyes as she held Tyler’s hand. Meanwhile, he appeared casually dressed, offering a subdued smile to the camera.

The tennis player had snapped the picture for them after their match

Tyler reminisced over the photograph, studying it for a long moment before remarking with a smile, “I can’t believe they still have this

Naomi, smiling, replied, “I was so surprised. It was a shock to see it again. How time flies.”

The envelope contained more than just one photograph. Tyler removed the others and sifted through

them.

Among them were pictures of themselves with the player, as well as from the exciting match.

Additionally, there were candid solo shots of Naomi, who seemed to be the photographer’s focal point.
