Olive’s joy was a wonderful sight as she rushed to embrace her mother. The room seemed to light up with her happiness, their reunion a bittersweet moment amid the heavy atmosphere. Scarlett returned her daughter’s hug, her eyes filled with a mix of relief and longing.

“I missed you so much,” Olive said, her voice shaking.

Scarlett’s ‘s gaze lingered on Olive, her heartache apparent. “I missed you too, sweetpea. I’m so sorry I missed your birthday.”

Olive shook her head. “Evie helped me celebrate. They even recorded it, so you can look back and see everything that happened!”

“Oh, that’s wonderful!” Scarlett said breathlessly.

As they held each other, Scarlett’s eyes found mine. “Evie, thank you for taking care of her.”

I offered a soft smile, though my anxiety about the situation remained. “Of course, Scarlett. Olive was an amazing guest.”

As the mother and daughter shared a tender moment, my attention shifted to Stella, who had remained on the outskirts of the room. She watched the reunion with a mixture of longing and resentment.

Stella finally stepped forward, her voice tinged with an attempt at warmth. “Scarlett, you’re feeling better?”

Scarlett’s warm demeanor seemed to snap just then, replaced by something cold and stiff. “What the hell are you doing here?”

Stella didn’t budge. “I’m your sister. I have a right to be here.”

Scarlett’s expression shifted, doubt and suspicion creeping in. “Sister? I could hardly call you that at this point.”

Stella’s gaze fell, and her shoulders slumped. “I walked out, yes, but I’m here now. Everyone…copes differently.” The room grew heavy with unspoken tension. Scarlett’s voice was edged with frustration. “Stella, why are you really here? Is it about the estate again? Did you have a hand in what happened to me?”

Stella’s eyes widened, hurt and surprise etched on her face. “Scarlett, how can you even think that? I would never do something like that, no matter how much we’ve fought.”
