Everyone could see how much of a place Olivia held in Chris’s heart, so how could he have hung up on her?

Catlin had a bad feeling in her gut.

Olivia nodded. “Yeah, Chris said he was busy and just hung up. He said it was about business.”

The way she said ‘business‘ made it sound like Chris was trying to cover something up.

Catlin’s face turned even darker, convinced something was off.

Just as she was about to call Stephanie and tell her to stay away from Chris, she realized her calls weren’t getting through.

Since things went south, Stephanie had completely shut her out, blocking every form of communication.

Catlin was seething.

She was about to find another phone to try again when Tyler’s call came in.

As

soon as she answered, Chad started in on her.

“You know, they say a woman can ruin three generations with a bad marriage. I never believed it before, but now I see it clearly. Is this really how you act as a mother?”

“Is this how you treat your daughter? I’ve told you time and time again, we owe Stefi so much. You need to be kind to her, stop fighting with her. But you wouldn’t listen and even signed that agreement to cut ties with her.”

“Now look, the whole company’s going down because of you!”

Catlin’s chest tightened.

“What do you mean, the company’s going down because of me?”

“The people who’ve been causing trouble for our company are the same ones who helped Stefi make over two million dollars last year.”

”

It was all finally clear.

What was once a guess was now confirmed.

Catlin was speechless.

The room fell silent.

The conversation wasn’t quiet, and Olivia heard it all.

When Catlin heard Chad’s frantic accusations, blaming her for the trouble with Stephanie, she wasn’t happy.

Chad rarely visited her in the hospital, and she always felt he favored Stephanie the most in their family.

Now, hearing that the company’s current troubles were linked to the very company that helped Stephanie’s studio make money, Olivia realized how serious the situation had become.

It seemed like the Hart family was in deep trouble–and Stephanie was somehow involved.

‘What should they do now?‘
