Vengeance With My White Knight by Maya Kensington

Chapter 120 A cold glint flashed in Catlin's eyes as she turned to Olivia. “What is she talking about? That thirty grand, who did you give it 10?" Even a fool could tell Stephanie was referring to the money that had left Olivia's account.

But how did she know? Caught off guard, Olivia stammered, "Huh? Oh... I-I gave it to a scammer." "That's the excuse she had used before, right? Everything was happening too fast. She barely had tto think.

Catlin seized on her words. "You hear that? She was scammed!" Stephanie let out a cold laugh. "Oh? You sure it wasn't a payment to a murderer?" The word "murderer" hit Olivia like a punch to the gut. She forgot to breathe.

Stephanie tilted her head slightly. "Elliot, didn't you find out that the money actually went to a wanted killer?" "That's right," Elliot confirmed. "An A-list fugitive." Stephanie clicked her tongue. "An A-list fugitive? Thirty grand? What was it for? Skind of deal?" Olivia's mind exploded with a deafening buzz.

'She knows, Stephanie knows everything Panic gripped Olivia as she tried to process the fact that her secret was out.

Catlin, completely stunned, looked between Stephanie and Olivia. "Wait, what? Olivia, why the hell are you in contact with an A-list fugitive? Why did you give them money?" T-L "Yeah," Stephanie pressed, her tone sharp. "Why, Olivia?" With both women closing in, Olivia's mind went blank.

One thought echoed in Olivia's mind-she was screwed.

Her heart pounded wildly as she locked eyes with Stephanie. The pressure was too much. Her vision blurred, and before she could fight it, everything went black.

Catlin had been confused at first, but when Olivia collapsed in her arms, her lips turning pale and bluish, panic set in.

"Olivia! Olivia!" Catlin shrieked. "Somebody call a doctor! Now!" Her voice rang out in hysteria.

Stephanie watched the scene unfold, utterly unimpressed. "Let's go." "Yes, ma'am, Elliot responded, following her lead.

Even after they turned the corner, Catlin's frantic screams echoed through the hallway, proof of just how much she cared 1/4 70% Chapter 120 about Olivia.

Elliot cast a glance at Stephanie. "Olivia's crafty, but don't worry. The evidence will surface soon." The money had indeed ended up in a murderer's hands, but it hadn't been transferred directly from Olivia's account.

It had passed through multiple layers-clearly laundered.

Stephanie smirked. "No rush." From Olivia's reaction alone, it was clear she wasn't faking her illness.

If she were healthy, Stephanie wouldn't hesitate to take her down herself, But karma was doing the job just fine. The woman was practically falling apart-her hair thinning to the point of bald patches.

For someone as vain as Olivia, fighting a losing battle with tand illness was torture enough.

Elliot immediately caught on. "You really scared the hell out of her just now." Stephanie let out a light chuckle, playful and almost mischievous.

The sound was contagious. For a moment, Elliot understood why Sebastian admired her so much.

She had this effortless case about her, a kind of lightness that was rare.

Even in the darkest places, she carried the kind of energy that made people feel alive.

Bzzzz. Stephanie Giovanni's phone vibrated-it was Sebastian.

She answered, "Hey, Seb.

"Don't stir up trouble. And don't stay too long." Stephanie rolled her eyes.

She instinctively glanced at Elliot, who was trailing behind her.

Elliot, suddenly very interested in the floor, avoided her gaze.

Wait...

'Wasn't Mr. Giovanni supposed to be worried she'd get bullied by the Harts?' He just recorded a video of her scaring the Hart family and sent it to Sebastian. Stephanie muttered, "I wasn't causing trouble." Sebastian chuckled. "Good girl." Clearly busy, he hung up after that.

Stephanie turned to Elliot. "You recordedat my most terrifying, didn't you?" Elliot stayed silent.

She huffed, "Next time, if you're gonna record something behind his back, at least make it look like I'm the one getting bullied." 2/4.

+13 Chapter 120 Elliot held back a laugh. 'Getting bullied?' She was a little tiger-who could even manage that? Besides, if Sebastian ever saw a video of her actually being bullied, Long Harbor would be drowning in blood.

70% 13 Meanwhile, Catlin watched anxiously as doctors surrounded Olivia, trying to stabilize her.

Panicked, she grabbed her phone and called Tyler.

The moment he heard Stephanie had scared Olivia unconscious, he snapped, "I'm on my way to the hospital." Then Catlin hurriedly dialed Chris.

The moment the call connected, she barely had tto say, "Chris-" before her phone was snatched right out of her hand.

Startled, she spun around in anger, only to freeze when she saw who it was.

"Mrs. Ashford?" she stammered, her breath hitching.

Grace glanced at the screen, her expression darkening. Without hesitation, she ended the call and tossed the phone back at Catlin.

Caught off guard, Catlin fumbled and let it slip to the floor.

Grace's voice was cold. "Didn't I tell you? Stop calling Chris these days." "But Olivia-" "And who the hell is she that every little thing has to go through Chris?" Grace cut her off sharply.

That remark hit Catlin like a slap. She stood there, stunned.

Olivia was in critical condition, fighting for her life.

Yet Grace-who had practically watched her grow up-was dismissing her like she was nothing.

Catlin Hart (Moore) couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.

Bitterness crept into Catlin's voice, "Mrs. Ashford, before Stephanie cback, Olivia was always close to Chris. She was practically family. How can you be so heartless?" Grace narrowed her eyes dangerously.

"Heartless? Catlin, do you even know what kind of person you raised?" She let out a short, mocking laugh before adding, "Or do you really have no idea how she lived these past two years abroad?" Her tone dripped with sarcasm.

The Harts might still be blind to who Olivia really was, but Grace had done her research. Olivia being conveniently sick with multiple conditions? That was one thing.

But the fact that her son was still infatuated with her? That made it worth digging deeper.

Back when she was in Long Harbor, Grace always thought she was really good at putting on act.

3/4 16:49 Mon, 10 Mar MO Chapter 120 And what she found? Yeah, Olivia was far from innocent.

Catlin bristled at Grace's sarcasm. "What are you trying to say? Are you trying to smear Olivia's name?" 70% +13)

Grace scoffed. "Smear? Please. She's already filthy enough on her own, Tell me, Mrs.

Hart own Tell red askingowever asking your precious Olivia if she had a boyfriend while she was abroad? Or, better yet, how many?" "You-That's outrageous!" The implication sent a tremor through Catlin.

Furious, she launched into a heated argument with Grace right in the hospital hallway.

Stephanie had just finished a gof chess with Mrs. Blackwood when she returned, only to find the two women in a full-blown shouting match.

Grace, barely holding back her rage, sneered, "For all we know, she was just another plaything for the Lucano for family: And now she has the audacity to act innocent in front of Chris?" "You really did a fine job raising her, teaching her to steal your daughter's fiancé. Truly eye-opening." Catlin turned pale, nearly collapsing from anger.

"How dare you? Olivia was nothing but decent while she was abroad! She..." "Decent?" Grace cut her off coldly. "Need I remind you why she left in the first place? Because she almost killed Stephanie, and you had no choice but to ship her away." Catlin's breath caught in her throat.

Grace's voice turned razor-sharp. "A foster daughter nearly murders your real daughter, and you still defend h How dare you? Olivia was nothing but decent while she was abroad! She...” "Decent?" Grace cut her off coldly. “Need I remind you why she left in the first place? Because she almost killed Stephanie, and you had no choice but to ship her away." Catlin's breath caught in her throat.

Grace's voice turned razor-sharp. "A foster daughter nearly murders your real daughter, and you still defend her? Catlin Hart, Stephanie hit the jackpot with a mother like you." "No wonder she wants nothing to do with you. Frankly, she'd have to be out of her mind if she did." "You... You..." Catlin was trembling, utterly speechless.
