Another day goes by and Olivia was at her desk, typing up a report, or at least trying to. The conversation with Calvin was still playing in her head. She couldn't get out of it.

How bout we, make a wager on that? If your company can be successful for a year and maintain that success for a year, then I'll leave you be, but if it fails, and it will, guess what baby? I'm gonna be here, in the shadows, everyday, haunting you for the rest of your life. What you think about that, do we have a deal?

Mrs. Baker...

"Mrs. Baker, ma'am!" Suddenly, Liv was snapped out of her thoughts when the consultant appears at the door.

"There are people here to see you. Would you mind if I let them come in?" Olivia stutters, still sort of in her head. "Uh.. uh.. yeah, bring them in." Just then...

"Mama!"

Kiara cutely runs in, with Spencer strolling Jackson and Charlotte inside on a stroller. Olivia laughs and smiles in awe, as she didn't expect the surprise visit from her family. Honestly, she needed a distraction. Olivia excitedly picks up Kiara, giving her tons of kisses. She walks her to her family.

"Hey baby, what are y'all doing here?" Olivia asks, giving Spencer and her twins kisses.

"We just wanted to stop by for a little bit to say hi. Well, mostly Kiara. She kept crying for you so I thought why not?" Spencer chuckles. Olivia smiles. "Well, it's a good thing you're here. I needed a distraction from the tons of paperwork that I have to do. I still haven't found employees yet." She sits back down on her chair, with Kiara on her lap. Spencer walks over to her, volunteering to help.

"Oh, well, do you need any help with that? I can help promote your business with flyers, social media, anything you need. Just say the word." Olivia smiled, appreciating the help. But she stops smiling as she immediately thought about her ex. Spencer notices.

"Liv, honey, are you ok? Your whole expression changed?" Liv wasn't paying attention. Spencer calls out her name again as Liv is now spacing out. Kiara calls out her name. "Mama!" Liv snaps out of it and looks at her daughter before looking at Spencer. "Huh?! Oh, sorry baby. Uh.. I don't need the help. I got this. Don't worry..." She saids quickly.

Spencer is suspicious of Olivia. She hasn't been acting the same since the day of the interviews and he doesn't know why. He wanted to know what was wrong. But for now, he was going to keep it to himself. He smiles, letting her be on with her day.

"Well alright. We'll see you later when you get home. Come on K, let's go." Spencer holds out his hand but Kiara pouts. She doesn't want to leave. She wants to stay with her mother. "No! Mama...."

"I'm sorry K but Mama bye bye. Come on, let's get some food..." Kiara whines, trying to be away from Olivia.

"No! No! No!" She eventually cries out. "Mama!" Liv tells Spencer to let her go. She picks her up again. "Ok. How about this? You can come back and we get have some food. Huh? Mama food food?!" Kiara smiles and makes cute noises, agreeing. "Yeah! Mama food food!" She saids cutely. Liv and Spencer laugh at her cuteness.

"Ok. Bye bye!" Liv saids to Kiara. Kiara waves back at her. "Bye bye Mama!" Spencer also says goodbye before leaving with the kids. Olivia smiles, knowing that she loves her family.

A few hours go by and Olivia is scrolling through paperwork when a late phone call picks up. She answers the phone. "Olivia Baker?"

"Yes, Mrs. Baker, you have an intern ready for an interview." Olivia was hesitant since she was getting a bit tired from all of the hard work she did for the whole day. "Mmm, I don't know. It's getting pretty late and we're about to close soon." There's silence for a few seconds before the consultant speaks again.
