The tension between them was so bad that it was clear that any attempt to approach Stephanie now would only
lead to more confrontation.
She didn’t want to go.
Instead, she called Tyler. “Is the situation at the company really as bad as your father says?”
Tyler sighed heavily, his voice full of exhaustion.
Hearing her son so drained, Catlin felt a tightness in her chest. “How come?”
“It’s really bad. If that company doesn’t back down, we could face even bigger problems.”
“That company? The one that made Stephanie's stumoney?”
“Yes.”
Catlin fell silent.
‘Could it be?"
Was Stephanie really that powerful?”
‘How did she not know about this?"
“Could it just be your guess? Maybe it has nothing to do with Stephanie?”
The truth was, she didn’t want to go groveling to Stephanie.
If that company really had ties to Stephanie, then Catlin had no choice but to follow Chad's instructions. But just
thinking about Stephanie’s attitude toward her made Catlin more than reluctant to approach her. Chad's voice
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas low and angry. “She’s the one causing all this.”
The bitterness in his tone made it clear how much he resented Stephanie.
Catlin’s heart skipped a beat. “Is it really her?”
“Yes, that opportunist.”
The more Tyler thought about it, the angrier he became.
Catlin, already in a bad mood, felt her heart sink even further when she heard him speak like this.
After hanging up, she returned to the hospital room and found Olivia lying on the bed, pale and weak.
Her hair had thinned considerably, and she hadn't dared to look in the mirror in days.
Meanwhile, the specialists had cand gone, all giving the sanswer-she needed Dr. Pierce and Dr. Vitale.
Every chemotherapy session was a torturous ordeal for Olivia.
“Olivia, I'm stepping out for a bit.”
Catlin’s heart ached as she spoke. She wanted nothing more than to stay by her daughter’s side, but Stephanie
was causing

trouble again.
Every tCatlin thought about Stephanie, her frustration grew,
Olivia asked, “Mom, are you going to see Stefi?”
Yes, be good, I'll be back soon.
“Okay”
Olivia, though quiet and obedient in front of her mother, was seething with hatred for Stephanie inside.
Why couldn’t they just get rid of her? Why couldn't they send her packing out of the city?”

As soon as Catlin left the room, Olivia received another call-the sman, demanding money from her. “Money,
money, money! What do you think | have? I'm barely holding onto my life!” she snapped, furious. She was
already struggling to focus on her recovery because of Stephanie, and now this?
Were they trying to drive her to her breaking point?
No, she wouldn't die!
If they wanted her to, she would refuse.
She wasn’t going to give them the satisfaction.
-Meanwhile, in Mount Spring, Elliot and Jackson had just finalized the contract, though there were two issues that
needed
fixing.
They immediately had someone make the changes on the spot.
Jackson, ever generous, immediately ordered the changes as soon as he heard about the issues.
While they were waiting for the revisions, a server approached and whispered in Elliot's ear, “Mr. Grant, Mr. Fred
Ashford has arrived.”
Elliot furrowed his brow and glanced at the server.
Tell him to wait.”
Fred actually showed up. Was he really that worried about his son, Chris?
It made sense, though. With everything Chris had been up to lately, there was no shortage of trouble.
And his injuries? Any elder would be furious upon seeing him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElliot glanced at Jackson. “Please wait a moment, Mr. Hodge. | need to speak with Mr. Giovanni.”
“Sure, Jackson nodded, unconcerned.
The deal was already done, and there was no risk of it falling apart now,
The server's soft voice was barely audible, but Jackson caught it-Fred had arrived. He wasn’t worried in the
slightest.

it was Ped, or even the old man from the Ashford family, it wouldn't make a difference now.
When that found Sebastian, he and Stephanie had just finished in the hot spring.
Sebastion was drying Stephanie’s skin with a towel, quickly wrapping her in a thick robe.
Elliot approached Sir. Fred is here.
Sebastian raised an eyebrow and glanced at him.
Stephanie was also a little surprised. Fred coming in person showed just how disappointed he was in his son.
With Fred here. Chris must be nearby.
If they saw Sebastian, it would be interesting to see the look on Chris's face!
