Chapter 15: Breaking the Bond

(Olivia’s POV)

After hanging up with Connor, I placed my phone on the bed and took a deep breath. The

events of tonight replayed in my mind like a nightmare I couldn’t wake from.

Why had Cassandra sneaked into my room while I was showering? Her excuse of “just looking

around” was flimsy at best. There had to be something more sinister behind her actions.

I began inspecting my room carefully, circling each corner with meticulous attention.

Everything appeared untouched except for my precious light blue ceramic wolf figurine–now

lying in fragments on the floor, the last physical connection to my mother destroyed.

My gaze drifted to the nightstand where a cup of herbal tea sat, still warm. Martha Jenkins,

our housekeeper, had brought it in before I showered, as was my nightly routine. The ceramic

wolf had been placed on that same nightstand before being smashed.

A chilling thought crept into my mind. The tea cup sat exactly where Cassandra must have

lingered to break my figurine.

Could she have tampered with my tea?

I approached the cup cautiously, lifting it to my nose. The familiar herbal scent seemed

normal, but something felt off. I couldn’t risk it. With a decisive motion, I poured the liquid

down the bathroom sink.

Better safe than sorry.

Three hours later, my phone vibrated with an incoming call. Connor had finally arrived in

Harbor City.

“I’m here,” his deep voice came through the speaker.

I was in the middle of hauling bags of discarded belongings out of Moonlight Manor,

determined to erase every trace of my existence from this place. It was late, and Martha had already retired for the night, so I worked quietly alone.

“Con, I won’t be staying here tonight,” I whispered, mindful not to wake anyone.

There was a brief pause before his calm, steady reply: “Okay.”

“Have you already booked a hotel?” I asked, tying up another garbage bag.

“Yes, the Crescent Moon Hotel.”

I nodded to myself. I’ll book a room there as well. Let’s meet at the hotel. No need for

and Rivers Group president would surely grant him access to those hidden accommodations.

His reply came quickly: “My room is a duplex suite, two bedrooms upstairs and downstairs. If

you don’t mind, you can just stay over tonight.”

I hesitated, my finger hovering over the screen. We hadn’t seen each other in over three years,

and staying overnight in his room so abruptly felt improper. Still, with nowhere else to go this late, and since it was a two–story duplex with separate bedrooms, I reluctantly typed: “Thank

you. I’ll be there soon.”

Just as I was about to drive off, my phone chimed with a new message. Ethan Grey’s name flashed on the screen, instantly derailing my composure.

He had sent photos of Cassandra’s hand tightly wrapped in layers of gauze, making the injury appear quite severe. His message was blunt and accusatory: “Olivia, you really went too far this time. Come to the hospital and apologize to Cassandra immediately.”

Before I could process my anger, another message followed: “If you don’t apologize, I will never forgive you. Apologize obediently, and you can continue living in the manor.”

My lips curled into a cold sneer. Without hesitation, I deleted and blocked Ethan’s contact

altogether, severing the last fragile tie between us.

Three years of my life, gone in an instant. Yet I felt nothing but relief.
