She thought, ‘Olivia might be smiling on the outside, but she’s grinding her teeth on the inside. After all the terrible stuff she’s done, did she really think she wouldn’t face the consequences?

‘Well, here they are. Now she’s lost everything she worked so hard to steal. She has nothing left in the Hart family. Her health is wrecked, and there’s no way she’s going to survive much longer out there.

Stephanie said, “Right now, the Hart family is so caught up in fighting with each other that no one has time to care about her. Tyler is just taking all his anger out on her.”

She thought, ‘Olivia thought she had this perfect family love, huh? Turns out it was all a lie. Back when I was in Long Harbor, Tyler kept talking about how close he was to Olivia. But now? She’s just his punching bag.

Ella nodded, looking pleased. “Exactly. Catlin got arrested. The Hart Group is falling apart, and Chad can’t even support his mistress and her family.”

“Now the Hart family’s left with just Tyler. And Olivia? She’s in the worst position of all,” Ella added, sounding satisfied at the mention of Olivia.

“And Chris, too. He used to think Olivia was his ‘perfect girl, but now? They’re both at rock bottom,” Ella continued.

Stephanie picked up her cup again and took a sip, saying, “The Ashford family only had one he really have any options. But now that he’s got another son, he has another choice.

Ella nodded vigorously. “Exactly. If you ask me, Fred really messed up before. Even Claire is way more capable than Chris.”

She thought, ‘Even if Fred had picked Claire to run the Ashford Group, that would’ve been better than Chris. But now? With the extra son, Chris has someone else to share the inheritance with. He’s got nothing left.

Downstairs, the two of them were gossiping nonstop, while upstairs, Sebastian sat in a chair beside Lorenzo’s bed.

After Sebastian heard Lorenzo’s words, his gaze changed. It became more meaningful, especially when his eyes dropped lower, below Lorenzo’s stomach.

“You…” Sebastian chuckled softly but then paused, unsure of how to continue.

To be honest, Sebastian had heard Sofia gossip about Lorenzo’s personal issues, and he’d started wondering if something was wrong with him. But now, things seemed a little different.

Sebastian raised an eyebrow. “Is it really… working?”

Lorenzo nodded and hummed. “For the first time.”
