Chapter 256
Naoul was staring at the text message when her phone rang. It was a call from a number she didn’t recognize.
Answering it, she heard a voice that she hadn't heard for a long
time.
“Naomi.”
Naomi’s face turned cold, but she quickly controlled herself and replied in an even tone,” What do you want,
Gina?”
Gina, who had sounded so proud in her message, now seemed to be having trouble speaking. “Naomi, | know |
caused strouble between you and Tyler, but | didn’t go too far, did I? Please, could you ask Tyler to stop
messing with my family?”
Naomi was confused by Gina's request.
Gina went on, “All | did was embarrass Olivia at Marianne’s baby’s celebration, and then Tyler did that to my
dad-"

Naomi’s eyes fell on the newspapers by her bed. The front page covered a story about Averie Co., something she
had read a few days before. She remembered feeling puzzled about why the Harris family would target the Cox
family out of the blue, especially since Marianne was connected to them through marriage.
It didn’t make sense...
At first, Naomi hadn’t paid it much mind. But now, with Gina bringing it up, things
started to click.
Through tears, Gina pleaded, “Please talk to Tyler for me, Naomi. Ask him to forgive my dad and my family. I'm
truly sorry for what | said about Olivia's baby. We've been friends for so long, do this for me, please.”
“What did you say?” Naomi asked.
“I just made a comment about her being an illegitimate daughter. Was it so wrong to say that? Isn't she the
daughter of the woman who destroyed your family?”
Hearing this, Naomi took a deep breath to calm herself and regain her composure. Olivia is my sister, Gina. And |
won't allow you to talk about her like that. As for request, I'll see what | can do with Tyler.”

She hung up right after, gripping her phone tightly.

Hillary, who was nearby, could see something was wrong but didn’t know the details. ” What's the matter,
Naomi?”
Although Naomi said she would help, she was troubled by the whole situation. Tyler was known to be a fair and
compassionate person. It was hard to believe he would act so harshly against the Cox family, who were related
to Maisy, without a significant reason.
Could Tyler have acted to protect Olivia from Gina’s harsh words, or was there another reason behind his
actions? Was he worried about the baby?
Hillary went to her. “What's wrong, Naomi? Who called?”

Lost in thought, Naomi barely noticed her mom’s concern. “It’s nothing, Mom. I’m just tired. You should head
home,” she said.
Hillary could see something was bothering her daughter but chose not to press further. After a moment's
hesitation, she agreed to leave. “Okay, then.”
The room fell silent, with Naomi left alone with her thoughts.
That evening, Tyler cto visit. Naomi was already in bed. He paused at the doorway, saying, “I wanted to
clast night, but | had to deal with something.”
Naomi sat still. She didn’t even look at him. “Gina called.
Tyler moved closer, a look of concern on his face.

“Does what happened to the Coxes have anything to do with Olivia?” Naomi asked.
Tyler stopped by her bed and confirmed, “She is your sister. Plus, she was really upset that night because of
what Gina said.”
