" What the hell do you think you were doing Olivia?! " Tyler yelled pulling Olivia into his office.
" What did it look like? "
" Oh I saw what it looked like, and I'm still asking. " His voice got deeper as he spoke.
" Getting rid of that woman. " Olivia answered, she wasn't prepared to find out what would happen if she didn't, she could tell Tyler was in a rage, " Ty, why are you getting worked up? "
" Are you crazy?! you asking me... what the__
" Are you f*****g her? " Olivia cut him short.
" You would treat Sarah with respect! "
" Or else what? what would you do, Ty? "
Tyler chuckled, he retired to his seat as he graciously poured himself a glass of wine and took a sip.
" You could ask dad how I got him to co-manage, I couldn't get him to give me full authority... your dirt on him must be so... so strong. " Tyler replied with a wicked smile.
Olivia was stunned, " You have dirt on dad too, I knew it. "
" Yes you i***t, how else would I have gotten what I want? "
" You threaten dad because of that woman? you're the i***t. "
" Don't pretend to be a saint, you're not. We all applied extremely good what we've learned, the fine art of getting what you want. "
Olivia gulped, " I own this place. "
Tyler shook his head, " Do I honestly have to remind you that I'm superior? I'm the director Olivia, this co-managing s**t we have going on here? is nonsense. I just need to understand something. "
" What exactly is that? " Olivia asked tuning in.
" What do you have on dad?
" What? "
" What did you have on dad? I'll go first, I'm in possession of a video of him having s*x with his mistress. "
" What... " Olivia shook her head, Tyler was moving too fast.
" Yeah, messy stuff, you should see it. What's yours? "
Olivia hissed, " You think I'll tell you, I'm not stupid. "
" You will tell me, maybe not now... but you will, I just have to apply__
" The fine art of getting what you want... I get it, but I'm not stupid. "
" You are, don't mess with Sarah. You hit her, that's not good Olivia. "
Olivia was terrified by how trivial his tone was, but she had to put on a brave front, " I'm her boss, she has to talk to me with respect. "
" Ah, respect, " Tyler nodded, " Everyone has loose ends, I'll find yours and feed on it. "
" Tyler listen to me, " Olivia walked over to him, " If this is about the dirt I have on dad, trust me, you're better off not finding out. "
Tyler arched a brow, " Hmm... well then, don't mess with Sarah, hit her again and you'll be dealing with me. "
Olivia knew she'd lost, " Fine, I'll back off, take it easy on her. By the way, does mom knows about you playing knight in shining armor? " Well maybe not.
Tyler paused, he suspected she'd bring the mommy card, she was right to do so, it got him.
" Ah, " Olivia was smiling now, " I thought as much. I wonder how long you can protect her. " Olivia left Tyler's office relieved that she got through to him, she hoped she did.
Olivia was pacing around her office, her hands trembling, she was struggling to get herself in control. He had to talk about the dirt, didn't he? sometimes she wished she'd suffocated Tyler while they were trapped in the womb. The thought of Tyler forcing the dirt out of her terrified her, she kept it a secret for a reason, only if her bastard of a brother would understand. Even after everything that happened, she still felt the repercussions of her thirst for truth.
She had the rest of her life to deal with it, she choose to deal with it all alone, she swore she wouldn't tell anyone and she would see to it. She had to play Tyler's game, for now, she knows what he's capable of. He could get any information from her if he played his cards right and it terrified her. She wanted that Sarah girl out of the company, the last thing she wanted is a constant reminder of Leah. Just thinking about it gave her irritable itching on her skin. But it looks like she has to put with it, or she applied the rule on Sarah, get her to leave on her own.
She wasn't built to withstand this much stress, the room was suddenly becoming hotter. Olivia pulled out her phone, " Hey, I need to see you, I need to... I need you. Please. "

They had managed to conclude the dinner rush without Sarah, Anna was relieved. Just when you think you've seen it all, the drama keeps on coming. She felt sorry for Sarah, ever since she got to Gu it's been one bad luck after another, that's what she gets for being connected with Leah.
She was about to warn Sarah when they were briefly engaged in the bathroom, but she was also trying to evade questions. She wanted to tell Sarah how bad it was to get involved with a Guvin. She had walked in on Sarah and Tyler's almost intimate moment. She wanted to warn her, she knew Sarah was ultimately getting herself hurt, Anna knew it, she'd been done dirty.

" You okay? " Felicity pulled behind her as they both got their stuff from the locker.
" s**t, I really should mind my surroundings. " Anna replied.
" Really? what are you thinking about? "
" With the drama that just took place here? you're asking me that? "
" Ooh, " Felicity sighed, " That was uh... that was__
" You think she's okay? "
" If I were her, I wouldn't step foot back in here. " Xavier replied walking in with Rico behind him.
" She wouldn't... " Anna didn't want Sarah to leave just yet, she was just getting used to her.
" Of course she would, only a fool would show up here tomorrow after what happened. " Rico chipped in.
" 50 bucks, I bet she'll be here tomorrow," Xavier said.
" What? get out of here, you're on. " Rico laughed.
" What? you guys are betting now? " Anna wasn't finding it funny.
" Rico, maybe say thank you to your crazy girlfriend? since she's to be blamed. " Felicity replied.
" She's not my girlfriend. "
" Well you're f*****g her, she didn't tell you that she was gonna do something crazy today? " Felicity pressed on.
" You want a piece of me? because I'll be willing to share. " Rico snarled.
Felicity was irritated, " Son of a b***h__
" Okay, okay, that's enough. " Xavier came in between them, " Felicity let's go. "

Anna, Felicity, and Xavier made their way out of the building. Xavier took the best possible option to obtain peace, Anna was laid-back but Felicity on the other hand wasn't.
" Felicity__
" Don't Felicity me, Xavier. " Felicity replied fetching her car keys, " Rico is an asshole and you know it. "
They all turned over to Rico and Stephanie stepping out of the building, arms locked and kissing.
" He has to keep her under control, somehow, he's her boss. " Anna sighed.
" Nah well, that wouldn't be easy... he's f*****g her. " Xavier replied.
" I couldn't care less if they're f*****g, I just... " Felicity paused considering if she should go on.
" Believe me, I understand, I'm sick of those two. "
" Yeah, you want a ride? " Felicity offered him.
" Nah.. you guys go, I forgot my phone inside, goodnight. "
Xavier took a deep breath as he knocked on her door, which she opened.
" Hey, " Olivia heaved a sigh of relief as she saw him.
" I got your message. "
Olivia pulled him into the office, pressing a kiss on his lips, that was the relief she wanted, he was her relief.
