That statement was crystal clear: if Catlin dared to trouble Churis on Olivia’s behalt again, Grace wouldn’t hold back.

With that, Grace ended the call abruptly

Catlin, still gripping the phone, was fuming

Tyler was standing right beside her, both of them just outside Olivia’s hospital room.

“Did you hear that? The Ashford family is getting way too arrogant Do they really think our family is done for?” Tyler was livid. A frown settled on his face as he recalled their father’s discussion about the development of their mining project a month ago

Right now, they couldn’t afford to let Olivia find out. Her health was already hanging by a thread, and Chris was the only thing keeping her going.

Catlin shut her eyes for a brief moment before speaking again. “We need to figure out a way to bring Dr. Pierce and Dr. Vitale here for Olivia’s surgery”

Just then, Olivia’s weak voice came from inside the hospital room. “Mom?” Catlin immediately gestured for Tyler to stay

silent.

Tyler gave a slight nod, understanding her meaning.

Stephanie had managed to open her own business; there had to be someone backing her.

Whoever it was, they needed to figure it out as soon as possible.
