Olive’s joy was a wonderful sight as she rushed to embrace her mother. The room seemed to light up with her happiness, their reunion a bittersweet moment amid the heavy atmosphere. Scarlett returned her daughter’s hug, her eyes filled with a mix of relief and longing.
“I missed you so much,” Olive said, her voice shaking.
Scarlett’s ‘s gaze lingered on Olive, her heartache apparent. “I missed you too, sweetpea. I’m so sorry I missed your birthday.”
Olive shook her head. “Evie helped me celebrate. They even recorded it, so you can look back and see everything that happened!”
“Oh, that’s wonderful!” Scarlett said breathlessly.
As they held each other, Scarlett’s eyes found mine. “Evie, thank you for taking care of her.”
I offered a soft smile, though my anxiety about the situation remained. “Of course, Scarlett. Olive was an amazing guest.”
As the mother and daughter shared a tender moment, my attention shifted to Stella, who had remained on the outskirts of the room. She watched the reunion with a mixture of longing and resentment.
Stella finally stepped forward, her voice tinged with an attempt at warmth. “Scarlett, you’re feeling better?”
Scarlett’s warm demeanor seemed to snap just then, replaced by something cold and stiff. “What the hell are you doing here?”

Stella didn’t budge. “I’m your sister. I have a right to be here.”
Scarlett’s expression shifted, doubt and suspicion creeping in. “Sister? I could hardly call you that at this point.”

Stella’s gaze fell, and her shoulders slumped. “I walked out, yes, but I’m here now. Everyone… copes differently.” The room grew heavy with unspoken tension. Scarlett’s voice was edged with frustration. “Stella, why are you really here? Is it about the estate again? Did you have a hand in what happened to me?”
Stella’s eyes widened, hurt and surprise etched on her face. “Scarlett, how can you even think that? I would never do something like that, no matter how much we’ve fought.”
Scarlett’s voice was harsh, her doubts unrestrained. “You’ve always resented me, Stella. You wanted the estate, and you were willing to do whatever it took.
Stella’s face contorted in anger, and she shot back, “I may have resented you, but I would never have you shot! You’re my sister.”
The atmosphere in the room grew thick with tension as Scarlett’s revelation hung in the air like a heavy shroud. I looked at her, stunned by her accusations, and she returned my gaze with a mixture of anger and frustration.
“That can’t be true, Scarlett,” I finally managed to say, my voice shaking. “I have no idea who would want to do this to you, but I think Stella’s telling the truth.”
Scarlett’s frustration was evident as she snapped back, “You expect me to believe that, Evie? After all we’ve been through, you can’t just brush this off.

Not for her.”

I took a deep breath, my thoughts racing to make sense of the situation. “Scarlett, it’s possible that someone from my past is trying to destroy me. There have been times when I felt like I was being watched, but I never connected it to you.”
Scarlett’s eyes bore into mine, her anger simmering just below the surface. “This feels personal, Evic. It’s more likely that Stella is involved.”
Stella had remained silent during our exchange, her eyes darting between Scarlett and me, her expression carefully composed. Now she stepped forward, her voice firm. “Scarlett, how could you accuse me of something like this?”
Scarlett shot back, her anger unrelenting. “Stella, we have proof of your affair with Timothy’s brother, Andy. You would be vengeful enough to do this.”
Stella’s lips curved into a mocking smile, her tone condescending. And who would believe that proof? Especially when it’s coming from a nobody like you, Scarlett. And Evie? You’re already considered ‘used goods‘ in the public eye, which is scandalous enough.”
Scarlett’s frustration was palpable as she glared at her sister. “You think you can just dismiss everything, Stella? We know the truth, and we have evidence.”
Stella laughed, a bitter sound filled with contempt. Evidence, Scarlett? I’d love to see what you’ve got. I highly doubt it’s as incriminating as you claim.” Scarlett’s anger flared, and she shot back, “Don’t underestimate us, Stella. We have the means to expose your secrets,”
Stella waved her hand dismissively, her confidence unwavering. I call your bluff, Scarlett. If you had the guts to reveal the so–called proof, you would have done it already”

I couldn’t stand by any longer, the truth burning inside me. “I did have the nerve to send Timothy the photos.”
Stella’s gaze turned to me in fury. “You? So it was you that told Timothy?”

I took a deep breath, my voice resolute. “Stella, I sent those photos to Timothy because he deserves to know the truth. He deserves better than to be with someone who’s been unfaithful.”
Stella’s fury was unleashed, and she stepped forward, her voice sharp. “You self–righteous bitch! You had no right to interfere in my relationship!” Scarlett’s voice was filled with anger as well. “Stella, we can’t continue living a lie. It’s time to confront the truth.”
The room was filled with simmering emotions, the weight of the revelations and accusations hanging heavily in the air. Stella’s relationship with
Timothy had been exposed, and the consequences of her infidelity were unraveling before us.
Stella finally spoke, her voice a mix of fury and despair. “You’ve destroyed everything. Evie. I loved him, and now he’ll never forgive me.”
I felt a pang of guilt, but I couldn’t deny that the truth needed to come to light. “Stella, if your relationship with Timothy was built on lies, it was bound to crumble eventually. It’s better that he knows the truth now.”
Stella’s anger flared once more, her voice filled with venom. “I hope you’re happy, Evie. You’ve ruined everything”
Scarlett’s voice was firm, her gaze unwavering. “Stella, this was your own doing. You can’t blame Evie for exposing the truth. You also can’t blame me
for trusting her with my daughter!”

Stella growled. “Scarlett, that is ridiculous. I’m her aunt. I have every right to take Olive home with me.”
Scarlet’s gaze remained unwavering, her tone firm. “I wouldn’t trust you with my child, Stella, not after everything that’s happened.
Stella’s face contorted in anger, her voice sharp. “You can’t keep her from me, Scarlett. She’s my family too.”

I watched silently, hardly realizing that my fingers were starting to lose feeling from Olive clenching them so tightly. This was probably one of the last things she needed to witness.
Stella turned to Olive, her voice soft but tinged with anger. “Olive, don’t you want to come home with me? I’m your family.”
Olive looked torn, her eyes switching between Stella and me. She glanced at Scarlett, her eyes filled with uncertainty. “But I like Evie.”
Scarlett smiled in response. “I know, sweety, and I want you to stay with Evie for a little longer until I feel all better, okay?”
Stella’s patience wore thin, and she snapped, “You’re making a big mistake, Scarlett.”
Scarlett remained resolute. “I don’t trust you, Stella.”
Stella’s anger reached a boiling point, and she stormed out of the room. I watched her go, a sense of unease settling over me.
I turned to Scarlett, my voice soft and careful. “Are you sure about this, Scarlett? I can look after Olive for as long as you need, but I don’t want to come. between you and your sister.”

Scarlett’s eyes met mine, a mixture of exhaustion and gratitude in her gaze. “Evic, I would appreciate it if you kept Olive for just a little longer. I trust you to take care of her.”
I nodded. “Of course, Scarlett.”
The room fell into a heavy silence, only the sound of the heart monitor filling the void. Scarlett’s eyes began to flutter, and I could see a fresh supply of medicine making its way from the IV and into her system.
“Thank you,” she said, her voice trembling as she fought sleep.
I bit my lip, watching as her face began to relax and her eyes sealed shut. I gave Olive’s hand another reassuring squeeze.
I would do the best I could for her.
