Olivia stared at Caleb, questioning him with her pressed her lips together, giving him a look of disapproval. Caleb rubbed his neck in a nervous gesture as he saw Oliva lean on the kitchen's counter and staring at him.
-"You don't have to say anything about this Liv. I know what I'm doing". Olivia pressed her hands on the counter but kept her eyes locked on Caleb. Studying his face as he spoke, she raised her eyebrow as she heard his words.
-"Do you? Because, quite frankly, I'm having a serious case of deja vu, here. Caleb she's our client..."
-"I know that, Liv."
-"You can'tlet this happen again, Caleb. This girl will bring you more trouble than Allison did".
-"Olivia, nothing happened between Hanna and I and it's going to stay this way". Olivia huffed as she watched Hanna walk through the garden. Hanna stopped in front of a rose bush and gently touched a bloomed one.
-"I really want to believe you'll manage to keep yourself under controlfor both your sakes, Caleb. This girl will only get you into trouble". Olivia sighed as Caleb leaned in to hug her and she calmly hugged him back. They stood there in silence, watching Hanna take in a deep breath. "It's time like these when I want to kill, "Bitchy". Under any other circumstances, I'd be the first to encourage the idea of you finally moving on and being interested into someone else, but this definitely feels like you're getting into the same mess as before. Maybe I'm not being fair to Hanna. She could be the best girl on Earth, but I just don't want to see you get hurt once she's safe and no longer our client". Olivia released herself from his hug, as Caleb pressed his lips softly to her forehead.
-"I really don't know what I would've done or where I'd be now if you hadn't been there to pick me up, Liv". Olivia smiled at him, while Caleb reciprocated with one of his famous grins.
-"You'd have probably reverted to being your old, sorry, grumpy, nerdy self and I really didn't like that version of you". As Olivia turned her head from him she froze. Sensing her change in attitude, Caleb asked with concern:
-"What's wrong?" Caleb watched as she shifted her weight before calling out to Hanna.
-"Hanna? There's a phone call for you. They say it's urgent". As a perplexed Hanna walked inside the room, Olivia took her by the hand and walked with her into the study. Caleb followed them, quickly understanding that something was definitely wrong. Once inside the study Olivia closed the door and pushed Hanna away from the windows. Turning around to Caleb, she softly whispered to him making both Hanna and Caleb freeze with concern.
-"What phone call are you talking about? No one knows I'm here". Hanna threw Olivia a confused look as she shifted her eyes in between the pair.
-"I think there's a sniper studying our grounds and security measures outside. There's some sun reflection in places where it shouldn't be. I needed and excuse to get you inside. He's moving fast at tracking you down, Hanna". Just then, Olivia's cell got a text. Once she read it, she pursed her lips in annoyance and groaned. "Your friend Spencer was relocated to one of our agents' house as a safety precaution and she's not happy about it".
-"Spencer? How do you know about her? And why would she have a problem with this idea?" Hanna felt confused.
-"Because she's my boyfriend's younger sister, Nerdy. And the place where she was relocated belongs to her ex, Toby Cavanaugh. And they did end things on a pretty bad note, that usually has them yelling at each other."
-"Wait, you're dating Jason Hastings? Oh crap, Toby and Spencer are gonna definitely gonna kill each other. I'm well aware of how bad things are between them right now".
-"They'll be fine" Caleb realized he said something stupid when both women shot him an annoyed look. "Liv, I'll take care of our pest problem if you'll stay here with Hanna". Making his way out the door Caleb started making some phone calls.
