Vengeance With My White Knight by Maya Kensington

Chapter 119 Chapter 119 How many times did she have explained over the phone, why couldn't they get it through their heads? Catlin's breathing was unsteady. "You. You Fine. She had given the sreason over the phone, and she was sticking to it now. That was it, right?' Furing, Catlin clenched her fists.

Stephanie had no interest in wasting another second on this.

She was about to walk past them when Olivia suddenly stepped in her way. "Stefi, what did you tell the Ashfords? Why are they doing this to me?* Stephanie rolled her eyes.

Elliot narrowed his eyes.

At Olivia's words, Catlin immediately turned to Stephanie with a sharp glare. "Yeah, what exactly did you say to them? Why would they send all these people here?" The men surrounding Olivia were clearly there to keep an eye on her.

Stephanie took a glance at them, then shifted her gaze back to Olivia.

"Do you really think that highly of yourself?" What had she told the Ashford family?" Stephanie scoffed. "Do you honestly believe that just because you've always clung to Chris and the Ashfords, I'd care about them too?" "You... Olivia's breath hitched.

Meeting Stephanie's eyes, she clenched her teeth. "If it wasn't you, then who else could it be?" Catlin fumed as she listened.

Sure, the Ashfords had already taken issue with Olivia before, but now it was clear these people had been sent by Fred himself.

Fred rarely involved himself in matters concerning the younger generation.

If he had stepped in now, it was only because Stephanie had taken things straight to him-enough to make him furious.

And to make things worse, she'd made their fallout public across all of Long Harbor. The mere thought made Catlin's chest tighten.

She stared at Stephanie, "What did you tell the Ashfords? Are you still hung up on Chris?" Stephanie rolled her eyes.

Elliot was speechless.

Everyone else was, too.

Especially Elliot-he looked at Catlin and Olivia like they were out of their minds.

1/4 Chapter 110 +13) 'Stephanie thinking about Chris Ashford? How did these people even cup with this nonsense?' Olivia stepped forward, tugging at Stephanie's sleeve, “Stefi, I know you're mad atfor coming back and ruining things. between you and Chris, but you" "Let go!" Before Olivia could finish, Stephanie yanked her arm away, disgust flashing across her face.

She stared at the spot Olivia had touched like it was tainted.

Thrown off balance, Olivia stumbled and fell hard, Jetting out a sharp cry of pain.

Catlin gasped, her voice breaking. "Ah-!" Panicked, she rushed to check on Olivia.

The doctor had warned them, Olivia had to be extra careful right now.

"Olivia? Olivia!" Catlin rushed to help her daughter, but Olivia was deathly pale.

"Mom, don't blStefi. This is all my fault... I wronged her," she whispered weakly.

Stephanie rolled her eyes, Elliot blinked in surprise. It was obvious. Sebastian was letting Stephanie handle things in her own way, and his overprotectiveness hadn't changed in the slightest, What kind of performance was this?' Stephanie couldn't quite wrap her head around Olivia's act.

Was she trying to show she cared about Chris? Or maybe the Hart family? But seriously, hadn't she already burned every bridge-both with Chris and her own family? Selling this whole act like she was sinnocent victim? Please.

Stephanie crossed her arms. “If you don't wantto slap you, you'd better drop the performance.” Catlin's face twisted with anger as she looked at Olivia, pale and shaken on the ground. She turned to Stephanie, fury in her eyes. "Get out! Get out of Long Harbor!" Regret hit her like a wave. She had never felt this much remorse. Bringing Stephanie back had been a mistake.

With shaking hands, she pulled out her phone and dialed Tyler.

The call connected quickly. His voice, exhausted, cthrough. "Mom?" "I don't care what you have to do. Get rid of Stephanie. I want her out of Long Harbor. Now." Stephanie rolled her eyes.

'So this was the plan all along?" 2/4.

16:49 Mon, 10 Mar MO Chapter 119 Everything Olivia had done before—was it all to drive her out of town? Cutting ties with Chris and the Hart family wasn't enough? They wanted her gone completely? Stephanie's mind flashed back to the investigation Elliot had run-Olivia and that missing thirty grand.

This had to be connected.

Someone wanted her out of Long Harbor, and there was more to it than met the eye.

Tyler frowned. "What now?" 70% Work had been a mess lately, and after an all-nighter at the office, the last thing he wanted to hear was Stephanie's name.

Carlin snapped, her voice shrill with rage. "If she stays in Long Harbor, Olivia's as good as dead! She's going to ruin her!" Hearing this, Tyler Hart had an even bigger headache.

Tyler's headache pounded harder. "Why is she even messing with Olivia? Didn't she already cut ties with us?" If Stephanie had severed ties, she had no reason to still be involved.

"I don't care, Catlin spat. "Just get rid of her.

At this moment, all she wanted was for Stephanie to disappear.

Tyler was getting irritated.

After what happened with shutting down Stephanie's studio, he knew better than to agree to anything recklessly.

Shutting down her studidn't work-how could they possibly force her out of Long Harbor? After that last fiasco, Tyler had no doubts now-whoever was backing Stephanie wasn't someone to mess with.

"You hear me?" Catlin snapped when he didn't respond.

Her frustration boiled over as she spat out, "Are you really going to stand by and watch Olivia die?" Tyler's breath hitched.

After a brief silence, he finally muttered, "I'll handle it." Then, he hung up.

Catlin turned to Stephanie with a glare. "Just wait." +13

"Wait?" Stephanie smirked. "With the power the mighty Hart hty Hart family bas!! figured K'd be kicked out of Long Harbor by now." Her words were sharp, cutting deep.

Elliot shot her a quick glance, intrigued. Meanwhile, Stephanje tilted her head slightly, her gaze sweeping over Olivia, who was still clinging to Catlin. Then she smiled. "Elliot." "Yes, Miss Stephanie?" "That thirty grand I asked you to track-got anything yet?" 3/4 Mon, 10 Mar Chapter 119 Olivia's breath caught in her throat.

Her head snapped up, panic flashing in her wide eyes. Her entire body trembled uncontrollably.

Stephanie arched a brow, amusement dancing in her gaze.

Oh, if Olivia wanted to put on a show, she'd give her something worth performing for.

Olivia turned deathly pale. "Thirty grand-was she talking about the money I had given that person?' How did Stephanie know about that? Catlin, still glaring, hesitated. "What thirty grand?" Her confusion deepened.

And more importantly-why was Olivia shaking like a leaf? +13)

Catlin instinctively glanced at Olivia, who looked as pale as a ghost m Feeling her mother's gaze, Olivia struggled to compose herself.

But she couldn't. No matter how hard she tried, her body wouldn't stop shaking.

Stephanie's smirk deepened. "What thirty grand? Well, shouldn't that question be directed at Miss Hart?" Olivia froze.

Her already bloodless face turned even paler, like she had seen a ghost.

'She knows. Stephanie was talking about the ten grand I had given that person.

'But how? How did she know?' A whirlwind of questions flooded Olivia's mind, her breath quickening, her heartbeat spiraling out of control.

4/4.
