Linda and Tyler were talking about work in the study.
“We've gone through all the accounts for our branch in Seta City. Everything seems to be in order.”
Tyler had shown up at the party mostly to check on the Harris Group's branch, the Pinnacle Group. But they
hadn’t figured out why money had been missing for years.
“When it all looks too good, something's usually off. Did you look into the management team?” Tyler asked, his
expression serious as he looked over the accounts.

explained.
Tyler listened quietly.
Linda then remembered something important. “Oh, Mr. Tyler, | need to tell you something. Claude's grandfather

Tyler suddenly turned to look at Linda. “When did it happen?”

Tide City.”
“Okay,” Tyler replied, still sounding distant.

Tyler cout after Linda. He told her, “You can go now.”
Linda paused and looked at him. “Alright, Mr. Tyler.”
After Linda left, Tyler went over to Olivia. She looked so calm in her sleep.
He carefully tucked her in and caressed her face. After a brief moment, he stopped and stood by the

bed for a while before going back to the study.
Olivia woke up suddenly at 10 pm, confused about where she was. After seeing the large TV, she remembered

She felt worn out, especially now that she was pregnant and past the morning sickness.
