I had thought it would take longer for my plan to unfold, that I would have to exert more effort to see any real results. But I quickly realized that Olivia wasn’t the patient, calculated type. She was impulsive, more than I had anticipated. Being the good girl she was, she didn’t make me wait. She came straight to me, served herself up like an offering, a gift I could easily claim.

I didn’t stop to check; there was no time. I straightened up, smoothing down my clothes and walking toward the elevator as if nothing had happened, my expression unreadable.
