Over at Stephanie’s place-

Her phone buzzed with a text from Olivia: [Chris said once we move into Whispering Bay, he’s getting me sunflower curtains.]

Stephanie glanced at the message and typed back: [Cute. You should start shopping.]

The sheer audacity.

Alright then.

Four days left. She couldn’t wait to see how Chris planned to dig himself out of this mess.

The great heir of Long Harbor’s top family, falling flat on his face in front of everyone?

At the hospital-

Olivia frowned at Stephanie’s reply. No reaction. No jealousy. Nothing.

Her fingers tightened around her phone, but before she could fire off something nastier, Catlin walked in.

Olivia quickly deleted the thread and handed the phone to a nurse. “Thanks.”

“You’re welcome.”

The nurse gave Catlin a polite smile on her way out.

Catlin beamed. “So? Everything settled with Whispering Bay?”

Just thinking about Olivia moving into that house made her chest swell with pride.

Let those rich housewives keep talking. The same ones who called Olivia a ‘charity case‘ could choke on their words when they saw her living at Whispering Bay.

That was the kind of address that shut mouths fast.

Olivia gave a soft nod. “Yeah. Chris even said we can put up sunflower curtains in

my room.”

Catlin’s smile stretched wider.

“See? That man spoils you rotten. You better cherish that.”

Hearing her talk about ‘the future‘ made Olivia’s heart squeeze a little.

Would there even be a future?

God, she hoped so. Once she got better, she swore she’d stop pushing her luck.

Staying alive had to be the only priority.

“By the way,” Olivia said carefully, “the lawyers have been trying to find you. Mom, are you really not ready to cut Stephanie off?”

With everything that happened, Olivia thought Catlin would’ve jumped at the chance to make it official.
