He felt like there was nothing between them except blood. If Stephanie truly saw herself as part of the Hart
family, she wouldn't be so cruel to them.
He thought. These are her own family, yet look at how heartless she’s become. She's burned all her bridges.

She doesn’t even consider the possibility that one day, she could end up like Olivia in the Lucano family. If that
happens, the Hart family could still take her in and give her another chance. But she hasn't thought about any of

His anger flared again. He remembered how he had begged Stephanie and humbled himself, but she still refused
to budge.
Does she think that she is skind of treasure in the Lucano family? She doesn’t even share their blood. I'm
going to see how long they'll keep treating her like she’s special,” he thought.
Catlin’s chest tightened, and she could barely breathe. “So what you're saying is.... she won't help me?”
“Yeah” Tyler answered, his voice firm.
Catlin’s eyes filled with tears instantly, and they kept streaming down her cheeks. Her voice trembled as she

Tyler stayed silent, unable to respond.

Tyler's breath quickened as he listened. His hatred for Stephanie grew with each word.
Carlin’s voice becdesperate. “What do | have to do for her to forgive me? Doesn’t she know the whole Hart
family needs her right now? Why is she being so heartless?”
At that moment, Catlin was completely mad. Stephanie wouldn't help her, which meant it was impossible for her
to get out of this mess. She was completely shattered.
Tyler could only stay silent as he watched her break down
Then Catlin snapped, “What about your dad? What's he doing now? He's not going to ignorejust for that
bitch, is he?”
Since Stephanie was out of the picture, Catlin now turned to Chad for help.
Thinking about Chad made Tyler's breathing quicken. He had thought about going to his father, but his father
wouldn't even see him. For the past few days, Tyler had felt like his father had abandoned him, focusing all his
attention on that other family.
“I'm sorry.” Tyler said quietly. He felt completely powerless in the face of Catlin’s breakdown. As her son, it hit
him deeply.
Whether they wanted to admit it or not, the whole Hart family was falling apart. Because of Olivia... and because
of Stephanie.

Chapter 319
After flying all night. Sebastian's private jet finally touched down at an international airport in Florenza armund
10 AM t next morning
Stephanie knew they were heading back to Fiorenza, so she woke up early.
Sebastian got her to eat scereal, but since her stomach was upset, she ended up throwing it all up
She hadn't eaten properly in the last few days, so by the tthey landed, she felt completely drained and weak
Sebastian carried her the whole way, and for once. Stephanie didn’t try to walk on her own. She just didn’t have

“When we get home, I'll have the medical team do a full check-up on you” Sebastian said softly, his eyes full of
care.
Stephanie just nodded weakly, too tired to say much
She was worried she might be pregnant, so she had barely taken any of the meds Macro had gotten her on the
plane.
Macro, who was walking behind them, was still grumbling about the trip to Moalee Desert.
Hearing Sebastian talk about getting the medical team to check on Stephanie, he couldn't resist a sarcastic
comment. “Your medical team’s finally getting suse, huh?”
Speaking of the medical team, it all started when Stephanie was a kid and got sick. She went to the hospital for
an IV, but the smell of the disinfectant made her throw up.
After that, Sebastian made their home’s medical room bigger. They bought hospital-grade equipment and even
turned an entire villa into a medical space. They also hired a pediatric team.
As Stephanie grew up, the medical team adjusted to her changing needs, and even though she hadn’t been in
Fiorenza for a while, the team still stayed.
Hearing the bitterness in Macro’s voice, Stephanie peeked out from Sebastian's arms and said, “You better quit
talking. Keep it up, and you'll end up stuck in Moalee Desert even longer.”
When Macro heard the word “longer,” he immediately quieted down.
