The Beginning Of All Sins

Chapter 379

The atmosphere had improved enough for Olivia to regain some of her appetite. She managed to finish bowl of soup.

Ana showed no signs of being passive aggressive or hostile. In her own way, she was rather friendly. After breakfast, she assisted Maisy out of the dining hall, with Olivia trailing behind.

The two started chatting on the couch as Olivia listened from the side.

The aftemoon passed uneventfully.

Olivia’s phone vibrated when she returned to her room, shaking the entire table it was on. It was from

Naomi.

She balked for a bit before finally answering it.

Olivia could only change what she said midway. “Alright.”

“Good. I’ll see you in a bit then!”

Olivia wasn’t sure if she could keep her promise, but she had agreed anyway.

Ten minutes later, she told Ana she needed to step out for a bit, without mentioning it was to visit the

hospital.

Olivia was sure Ana would disagree. The aftershock from the incident was still fresh, after all. She could very well cause a new shockwave.

Surprisingly enough, Ana simply raised an eyebrow. “You’re visiting your family?”

“Y–Yes.”

Ana took a sip of her black coffee. “Sure. Go ahead,”

Olivia glanced at her skeptically, but Ana was not looking at her at all.

“Thanks,” Olivia said.

With that, she left.

Ana waited until Olivia walked away to watch her leave from the window, her hand prying away

It was a 20–odd minute ride to the hospital. Olivia could not calm down at all, so she stared out of the

window at the crowd.
