Tears fell from Sylvia's face. "I know, Miss Maxwell, but please… I beg you."

With a chilling tone, Olivia replied, "Give me a reason to listen to you!"

Sylvia's tears kept running down her face as Sylvia stood in silence for a while before finally saying,"My sister and I lost our parents when we were very young. The two of us relied on each other growingup and had a very good relationship. However, I had a fight with my sister three years ago, and I ranout of the house in a fit of anger. My sister was involved in a car accident as she came running afterme, and passed away from that very accident. I felt regret over what had happened and blamed myselffor her death. I had even blamed God for not taking me along with my sister."

"But one day, I saw Summer appearing on TV. She looked exactly like my sister, and even her namebore similarity to my sister's name—Sunny. Summer's appearance drew me in. It felt like she was sentto take my sister's place, which was why I had spent all my efforts to be by Summer's side. I know thatshe isn't really my sister, but I had selfishly seen her as though she was. So that I can keep pretendingthat my sister was still alive. Even after replaceing out that she had used me to get to the two of you, Icouldn't bear for her to be implicated in this matter. That's why, Miss Maxwell, please just accept me asthe culprit for this matter! I beg you!"

Listening to Sylvia's story, Olivia could only sigh in silence. She became softhearted at the sight of thiscrying little girl in front of her.

"Summer should feel privileged to have a kind sister like you!"

Sylvia sobbed, "Miss Maxwell, I know that you are a good-natured person. I'm willing to apologize toMr. Landon and Mr. Gabel. If that is not enough, then you can hand me over to the police!"

Without any other choice, Olivia made eye contact with Jewel before replying to Sylvia, "You're really afoolish girl!" She then helped Sylvia off the ground. "Fine, leave everything to me!"

With teary eyes, Sylvia asked, "Miss Maxwell, does that mean you'll agree to my request?"

Olivia replied, "I ask that you stay out over what happens next." Olivia then gave some sort of gestureto Jewel before the two of them left the area.

…

Summer was pacing back and forth in her room. The longer time passed, the more fear grew insideher. She didn't know what Sylvia was going to tell Olivia, and was wondering why there were nomovements from the crew even after much time had passed.

Will they call for the police? Should I call John for help if they did? Now that it has come to this, evenJohn won't choose to abandon me, right?

As Summer was drowning in doubt, unsure of what to do, the door to her room was flung open. Due toher guilty conscience, she was scared like a thief being caught. She then immediately turned towardthe door to replace Olivia and Jewel's faces, and unconsciously took a step back. "W-What do you thinkyou're doing?"

Olivia didn't bother replying to her question and slammed the door with the heel of her foot. With hergaze as cold as ice, she stared at Summer. "Feeling guilty?"

This time, Summer had managed to overcome the shock and managed to stay calm. She thought toherself that even if Sylvia had reported to them that she had left the drinks unattended in her room, aslong as Summer stood her ground and denied adding the laxatives, there was nothing that anyonecould do. After all, no one had witnessed the moment she added the laxatives.

"Olivia, you can't just rely on Sylvia's words and assume I was the culprit. It's true that she had left thedrinks inside here, but I did not add anything to them. She only wants to get back at me, so she plantedthat idea in your head!"

Olivia and Jewel looked at each other before Olivia sneered at Summer, "How heartbroken Sylviawould be if she should hear what you just said."

As Summer did not understand what Olivia was saying, she could only stare blankly at Olivia.

Shaking her head in slight frustration, Olivia pitied Sylvia and thought that it was not worth it for Sylviato take the fall for Summer.

"While you were busy trying to shift the blame to others, that little assistant of yours had come forwardherself and admitted that she was the culprit. I really don't get it. With all the abuse you've inflicted onher, why would Sylvia choose to willingly accept the fall for you even after you set her up as yourscapegoat? At first, I thought that you'd made some kind of deal with her. However, the reason shegave me was that you looked like her sister. She's been treating you as though you're her blood sisterfrom the start. What about you? You've shifted the blame to her, saying that she wants to get back atyou! Summer, how much lower will you go as a human being?"
