Chapter 144

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 sones 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.

But instead, Catlin kept dodging their calls. What the hell?

Was she seriously hesitating? After all that, was there still sleftover maternal guilt for that ungrateful brat?

The second Stephanie’s ncup, Catlin’s smile cracked.

“She's still my daughter,” Catlin sighed. “Let's wait until you're better. Then I'll decide.”

Truth was, Catlin couldn't bring herself to sign the papers. What if she regretted it later?

Every decision she’d made about Stephanie lately was pure anger-driven impulse.

Never make decisions when she was angry-she might regret them later.

Olivia's heart sank.

‘After I'm better?’

So what-once Olivia was healthy again, Catlin was planning to flip the script and start ‘making it up‘ to

Stephanie?

And then what?

Her fingers curled tight in the blanket, nails digging into her palm.

This whole time, she thought the Harts could force Stephanie out.

Now? Stephanie’s accounts were untouched. Her stuwas still thriving. She was standing her ground like

nothing could touch her.

So all the moves she made-what the hell was it for?

All of it, completely wasted?

Catlin let out a long sigh. “I just don’t get it. How did she end up like this? That family must not have loved her at

all. Otherwise, how could my own daughter grow up with a heart that cold?”

Just thinking about Stephanie's adoptive family was enough to make Catlin’s blood boil.

If those people had raised her right, Stephanie would've turned out soft and sweet, just like Olivia.

Not this mouthy little hellraiser who fired back ten times harder anytsomeone said a word.
