Chapter 164: You All Failed Me

Olivia’s POV

The door to my room pushed open, and Lady Fiona walked in. Our eyes met, and I didn’t bother hiding the frown on my face. She moved from the door and slowly sat beside me on the bed. I shifted a little, creating space between us. I still had grudges—deep ones.

"Olivia, I’m glad that you’re back. I was so worried," she said, her voice soft, as though laced with genuine concern.

But I wasn’t moved. My heart didn’t feel it.

"I believe you have something to say," I said, cutting to the point, my tone harsh.

She sighed, nodding slowly. "It’s about Anita," she began.

My frown deepened, and I turned sideways to meet her gaze. "And what about Anita?" I asked, my tone already sharp with anger.

She hesitated—just for a second—but it was enough to tell me I wasn’t going to like what she had to say.

"The Alphas are angry with her," she said carefully. "They want to send her to the dungeon to await trial... but you can stop them."

I felt something inside me snap. I stood up abruptly, my arms folded tightly across my chest as I stared down at her. "Really?" I scoffed. "So now you want to plead for Anita?"

My voice rose, filled with both pain and anger. "But when your precious sons were treating me like dirt, when they hurt me, humiliated me, and broke me, you stayed silent! You didn’t speak to them. You didn’t correct them. Not even once!"

Her eyes widened. "That’s not true, Olivia. I spoke to them. I did... but they wouldn’t listen."

"That’s not enough!" I shouted. "You’re their mother, Lady Fiona! If you really wanted to help me, you could have done more. You should have done more. You watched me live in pain—you watched me suffer emotionally, mentally, physically, and all you did was watch!"

Tears stung my eyes, but I refused to let them fall.

"I’m sorry," she whispered, voice trembling. "I truly am."

"I don’t want your apology," I snapped.

She looked away for a moment before speaking again. "Anita deserves to be punished, I won’t argue that. But she’s pregnant. That’s why I’m asking you—to please, speak to the triplets. Ask them not to punish her now. Let her give birth... then they can do whatever they want."

I stared at her, my voice low and shaking. "I will do no such thing."
