Chapter 22: A Cruel Revelation

(Olivia's POV)

Her eyes widened in shock. She clearly hadn't expected me to retaliate

"Victoria, instead of wasting time causing trouble for me, you should focus on controlling Ethan and prevent him from harassing me!" I warned coldly, my emerald eyes flashing despite

my status.

Her mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water

Without waiting for a response, I turned and walked away, my bandaged hand held carefully st

my side as I left the stunned woman behind.

The satisfaction of finally standing up to her gave me strength as I made my way down the

corridor. My injured hand throbbed beneath its bandages, but the pain was worth

it.

As I approached the supply room, voices drifted through the partially open door I slowed my pace, recognizing Megan Porter's distinctive tone.

"Did you see that confrontation between Olivia Winters and Victoria Frost?" Megan asked

someone.

I froze mid-step, instinctively moving closer to the door.

"No, what happened?" Another voice responded - Rachel Bennett, if I wasn't mistaken,

"Victoria was blocking Olivia's path," Megan continued, "That woman is such a cold-blooded

love rival."

doing."

Rachel sighed heavily. "The day that little girl died, her mother was crying her heart out...that Frost lady, she was standing around the corner, smiling so happily."

The blood in my veins turned to ice. Victoria had known about Lily's death? All this time?

"I still remember that smile, Megan added. "It gives me chills just thinking about it. Truly a venomous heart... She has a daughter too, and her daughter is also sick. Isn't she afraid of

karma?"

My entire body began to tremble with rage. Victoria had known Lily was dead when she called to invite her to Emma's celebration. It hadn't been a mistake - it was deliberate cruelty.

I clenched my fists unconsciously, sending a sharp stab of pain through my injured hand.
