Chapter 314

After three years of running away, getting a scolding was inevitable. Michael sternly eyed Stephanie as if he wanted to devour her with his gaze.

Over the years, everyone was worried Stephanie might get into trouble. Even though they later found out she rarely encountered losses with those folks in Long Harbor, three years of constant worry took a toll on their hearts.

Stephanie looked down and murmured, “She’ll come back.”

Michael asked, “How do you know?”

“Olivia can’t stand to see me doing well,” Stephanie replied.

Beth and Michael fell silent. They thought, ‘Is this how Stephanie explained it?‘

However, Stephanie was telling the truth. She was convinced Olivia would rush back to Long Harbor to stop it. Even if Olivia didn’t make it in time, Stephanie had backup plans to ensure she had to return.

In the end, Stephanie took advantage of favorable circumstances. All the negative press was directed at the Ashford and the Hart family.
