Olivia has changed her uniform to casual attire. She glances at herself in the mirror. She's not the elegant, expensive-dressed woman from last night, nor is she the casually dressed boutique type like Ayeleen earlier this afternoon. However, she's not in shabby clothes either. Despite wearing affordable, off-the-rack clothes, Olivia is discerning in choosing fabrics and is adept at taking care of them. Olivia arrives at the location Ayeleen mentioned a while later. She takes a deep breath before pushing the thick, gold-framed glass door in front of her. The staff of the upscale restaurant looks at Olivia with a judgmental gaze, suspecting that she might have entered the wrong place with her seemingly inexpensive outfit. "I have an appointment with Ayeleen," says Olivia, somewhat annoyed by the woman's scrutinizing look, guessing she's in her early thirties. The woman nods, still with a disdainful expression, then guides Olivia to an empty private room. "Miss Ayeleen said she aske

Olivia continued to keep her distance from Ignazio, even at Rianna's pregnancy party. She deliberately avoided making eye contact with him. Olivia purposefully stayed away from family gatherings if Ignazio was there, even though, until now, such gatherings had been something she enjoyed. In the time leading up to their trip to Manhattan, Olivia tried to find an opportunity to talk to Claire without visiting her residence or encountering Ignazio. The only chance she had was at Rianna's event. After the party, Olivia asked Claire for some private time, and without much preamble, Claire invited her to talk in the Altezza office. "What's the matter, Olivia?" Mrs. Claire asked without beating around the bush. "Granny, there's something I need to tell you about Ayeleen," Olivia began the conversation. "What is it?" Mrs. Claire asked in her calm tone. "Ayeleen came to see me and said that she wants to marry Sir Ignazio." Olivia observed Claire's reaction, but as she always suspected, t

Olivia tried not to dwell on her conversation with Claire from the past. It clearly disturbed her, but she attempted to push those thoughts aside and chose to focus on her work. She continued attending her classes as usual, alternating between staying at the residence of Altezza-Adaline and Flavia-Gladwin. She made an effort to close her ears to any information about Ignazio, Gianna, or Ayeleen. However, no matter how hard she tried to avoid information, it still found its way to her. "Hanna said Gianna told her that she doesn't like her aunt," Hanna mentioned one afternoon when Olivia and her two foster siblings had arranged to meet at a mall for a meal. "Gianna said she prefers to play with Olivia rather than her aunt. She also asked me why Olivia doesn't live with her anymore. I told her I would ask Olivia when we meet." Did Gianna really say something like that? But clearly, both Hanna and Gianna were still innocent children. It wasn't possible for them to lie or play roles,

"Up until now, I'm still curious. Why did Olivia just leave your house like that?" Rayyan asked Meizar, his cousin's older brother. The youngest sibling of Ignazio. "Why are you asking me? I haven't lived at mom's house for a long time," Meizar replied curtly. "If there's anything to ask, it's your dad and Zio you should be talking to." Meizar said to Rayyan. "What do you mean?" Rayyan asked back, while his older brother and other cousins—Geremia, Luca, Zello—just sat quietly, paying attention. "People at home say your dad forced Olivia to leave our house. They don't know the reason, but your dad seemed angry when he took Olivia out." "Did Dad say anything to you, Bro?" Rayyan asked his eldest brother. "Dad often discusses things with you; did he never talk about Olivia's issues with you?" Geremia glanced at his brother for a moment before redirecting his attention elsewhere. "Even if there was, it's not my place to talk about it. It's Dad's, Ignazio's, and Olivia's business." Ge

The main catfight between Olivia and the Antony-Claire family couldn't be avoided because unavoidable circumstances arose. It was the marriage of Rayyan Quirino and Elara Fulton. Olivia felt quite surprised to receive a sudden notification that the two of them were getting married. Either she had been too indifferent or too self-absorbed to notice any difference between them. Or perhaps everything just happened too quickly. Olivia knew that Rayyan decided to leave his parents' residence to avoid unpleasant rumors, the same reason Olivia was allowed to leave the Antony-Claire residence, but she didn't expect the original reason was love. "Finally, the playboy has repented too," quipped Falisha, Rayyan's older sister right next to Olivia. Olivia looked at her with a puzzled expression. "If Rayyan gets married, that means there's only one playboy left in our family. And I'm sure he won't take long to repent either." She said with a sweet smile on her face. One more? Olivia asked hersel

TWO WEEKS HAVE PASSED, and Olivia is once again reluctantly attending the party thrown by the Quirino family.Yes, it's Meizar and Lorraine's wedding day. The youngest son of the Claire-Antony couple, Flavia and Ignazio's brother.If only she were allowed, Olivia would avoid the event because she wants to steer clear of Ignazio and also Mrs. Claire, who always makes her heart race in a different way every time she sees her, or whenever they accidentally lock eyes.Olivia wants to come up with an excuse not to attend. But the more she thinks about it, all the reasons she has sound unreasonable. And if she doesn't show up, it will only raise suspicion and discomfort between her and her foster family.At times like this, Olivia feels regret. Why did she run to Flavia's residence? Why didn't she just work in a different city, far away from her foster family, where she wouldn't be under their watchful eyes?But oh well, she can't fix a broken mirror, can she?Olivia sits at a round table w

"Zio isn't Zello," Francisca replied with a slightly stern tone. "He wouldn't casually dip his stick anywhere." She continued with a confident tone. Sara nodded in agreement, believing her eldest cousin's words."Yeah, who knows. People who are disappointed tend to do irrational things, like the unexpected actions he took after Gretta passed away," Falisha reminded again. Her response reflexively silenced Sara and Francisca.Honestly, after Ignazio returned, I didn't see the Ignazio I used to know. The warm and caring Ignazio who always protected his siblings seemed to be gone. Time can change someone, especially after being away for five years. We don't know what he went through, what he faced during that time. In essence, the Ignazio I knew since childhood seems to be missing. Maybe there's still a part of him, but only a percentage. The rest seems nonexistent. I even thought at one point that the Ignazio who returned here was his doppelganger. But after reconsidering, it's impossib

HEARING OLIVIA'S VOICE, Mrs. Claire, who was walking behind her husband, turned around. "What happened to Grandpa?" Olivia asked, worried as she approached quickly. Mrs. Claire looked surprised. The woman in her early sixties seemed uneasy. Her eyes scanned the surroundings before answering. "Nothing, Antony is just tired," she replied, appearing a bit nervous. The driver opened the back door, and the two sturdy men who helped carry Mr. Antony carefully seated him. Olivia couldn't see Mr. Antony's face because it was obstructed by the bodies of the burly men. Olivia again observed Mrs. Claire, who circled the back of the car to enter through another door. Before getting into the car, she said, "Go back to the party. The event is not over." She commanded firmly and without saying anything more, entered the car, which immediately sped away. Olivia remained frozen in place as she saw her stepbrother, Geremia, half-running toward the front of the hotel with his phone to his ear. The
