After her conversation with Susan, she said goodbye to Sophie and went to work.
She arrived at the company and called Abby in for a chat.
"I had to push Susan away, she was starting to become obsessed with Sophie. I really felt sorry for her, I think she had created a kind of affection for Sophie, as if she was really her granddaughter. but after what the nanny told me, I can't risk my daughter's life," said Olivia.
"You're right, Sophie's life comes first... and what are we going to do if she finds out?" asked Abby.
"I'll hire the best lawyer, you killed him to save me, he was trying to rape me."
"And we've involved Huck buried his body and in all this..." said Abby worriedly.
"There's another problem, Huck buried his body and that's a crime. we just have to believe that she'll never find out" said Olivia.
Abby wanted to change the subject "I don't want to talk about that disgusting man anymore, I want to talk about... I managed to have sex with Alex" she said.
"And how was that? I'd love to hear about your sex life, because I haven't had a sex life since the birth of my daughter" she mocked.
"I finally managed to get back to my normal life, it was nice, but it wasn't amazing... you know? Alex is handsome, but I don't know, there's not that much chemistry." The truth is that Alex couldn't get over Olivia and maybe he never will.
"Do you already have another man?" asked Olivia.
"I find that friend of Fitz's so handsome and attractive"
"Josh?"
"Yes"
"You talking about Josh, I just remember that slut Chloe" said Olivia rolling her eyes.
"I saw her on the day of your wedding party, like a slut all the time around your husband. you know she sent those photos, to cause a crisis in your marriage. right?"
"He repeated so many times that he didn't touch her, but I was so angry, I couldn't hear what he had to say to me" she paused and continued speaking... "Do you think I was too hard on him? That I should go to him and talk?" she asked Abby.
"Yes, he's already given you plenty of proof that he really loves you, Liv."
"I'll listen to my mother's advice and yours... I'll talk to him," she said more calmly.
Abby smiled at her...
"And about Josh, it's not his fault that he has a bitch sister, he's a great person, he's single, he's rich... I think I can help you," said Olivia.
Abby was very happy and hugged Olivia.
Fitz woke up sad today, he was definitely shaken by everything that had happened between him and Olivia, he had been working quietly and alone in his office. the fact that she hadn't taken him at his word had hurt his feelings.
She opened the door, went in and kept quiet...
Olivia noticed that he was different today. "Are you feeling all right? You're so quiet today," she said.
"How do you think I'm feeling, Olivia? my wife doesn't trust my word" he went straight.
"Fitz, you have to put yourself in my shoes. I was in our house, looking after our daughter and counting the seconds until you came back the next day... then I get photos of that woman in your hotel room, that woman who keeps stalking you, who keeps offering her body to you... I was furious and couldn't think of anything"
"You think I asked you to marry me, you think I put that ring on your left hand, for what reason? so I could fuck other women? no, I married you, because you're the woman I love"
Olivia walked closer to his table, but Fitz remained seated...
"I know you love me, I trust your love, I just..." she stammered.
"You just don't trust me when it comes to sex, so you figured that since we haven't had sex since Sophie was born, that meant I went to that hotel, to fuck Chloe and relieve myself. that's what you thought..." he said, looking at her, sitting down with a sad look on his face.
"I can't deny it, that's exactly what I thought... but you have to understand me, when I met you, your reputation was exactly for having sex with lots of women. that sometimes makes me afraid, that you'll miss your past..." she had tears in her eyes.
"How many times do I have to repeat to you that I'm not the same man as before? that I'm not that Fitz anymore, I would never cheat on you. I'm bursting inside with the desire to have sex, but I want to do it with you" Fitz got up from his chair and stood still.
"How did she get into your room?" she asked.
"Surely she paid someone to get access to my room, because I made it clear to her, when I told her to get out of that hotel reception and Josh said the same"
"I'm sorry? for not taking your word for it" she said, taking two more steps towards him, but she stopped walking when she noticed that he wasn't going to hug and kiss her.
"You know Josh said we could go back to the hotel, get proof that Chloe broke into my room without my permission... but I didn't want to, because I wanted you to take my word for it, that's all I wanted" he said holding back tears and putting both hands in his pockets.
"Fitz, I love you" she said and he interrupted her...
"I love you too, I love you too much, Olivia... but you didn't trust me" he said.
"Come back to our house? to our room, to our bed?" she said.
"You asked me for some time for your anger to pass, so I gave you your time. Now I need some time to think," he said. She hadn't really expected this attitude from him and was surprised.
"Later I'm going to our house to see Sophie," he said. Olivia stayed put and Fitz left the room, he wasn't well enough to continue working, so he went to the parking lot to get his car and return to Vincent's house.
After that she also left work and went home.
She arrived, showered and took Sophie on her lap, breastfed her and stayed with her.
Sophie was fussy, wiggling her arms and legs and she smiled watching her daughter develop so well.
Later...
Fitz parked up, every time she heard the sound of his car, her heart raced.
"Your daddy's here," she said to Sophie.
Fitz went inside, up the stairs and straight to Sophie's room.
He opened the door and saw Olivia sitting in the armchair with her...
"Hi" he said.
"Hi" she said.
"Is she all right?" he asked.
"She's fine, fussy and she's grown a few centimeters"
"Can I hold her?" he asked.
She got up from the armchair and handed Sophie to him. She looked into his eyes and said, "I'm proud of you, I knew you'd be a great father to her." They exchanged glances for a few seconds and then Olivia left and left the two of them alone.
