Darren felt guilty as he talked to Olivia. Smiling, he said, “You’re my child too. I treat you and Naomi the same, but I can’t show it too much with you. After all, I have to consider your Aunt Hillary’s feelings. I did her wrong.”
Olivia replied, “I know, and I get why you do it. Don’t worry about it.”
He wanted to say more, but then Alisa knocked on the door and walked in. She said to Olivia,
“You should rest, ma’am.”
Darren paused and looked at Alisa, surprised by her interruption. There were still things he wanted to say, and he looked over at Olivia.
Olivia told him, “I’m quite tired, Dad. You should go home and be with Aunt Hillary.”
He didn’t expect her to say that and was silent for a moment before agreeing, “Alright, rest well. I’ll go now.‘
“Mm–hmm,” she responded.
Darren had no choice but to leave. Alisa watched him stand at the door momentarily before he left quickly.
As soon as he was gone, Alisa entered the room.
Olivia said she was going to rest, but she wasn’t tired at all and just stared out the window.
Noticing her mood, Alisa asked, “Would you like something to eat?”
“No,” Olivia replied. She just wanted some quiet.
Ana, who had sent Alisa, watched Darren leave. She knew the Jones family well enough- Darren, Hillary, all of them were despicable. She knew he was up to no good to be visiting
Olivia.
After Darren left, Ana entered the room. “It’s so cold today. Why is the window open?” she
asked Alisa.
Alisa quickly closed the window.
Then, Olivia, hearing Ana’s voice, turned to her. Ana suggested, “Watch TV if you’re bored.”
“Okay,” Olivia agreed.
Ana didn’t stay much longer. After checking on Olivia, she left.

Outside the ward, Ben was waiting.
“Is Tyler still not coming?” Ana asked him.
Ben seemed troubled by the question and didn’t answer.
Ana scoffed. “Since that woman is not
I should visit her.”
She started to walk to Naomi’s ward, but Ben stopped her. “Ma’am, he’ll be here soon. He’s just waiting for things to settle down.”
Ana was annoyed but didn’t want to cause a scene. She stared at him coldly and then said, ” Fine, I’ll visit her in a few days.”
She scoffed again and left.
That night, Ana went home to rest after spending several days at the hospital. Olivia stayed in her room, with only Alisa for company.
