Olivia felt anxious about the fact the Max was the new executive head.  She knew how he was trying to get closer to Esmè. And it made her feel sick.

She knew what he was like. She knew that he was a bully. And the last thing that she wanted was to have to go to school and see him.  

She didn't trust him. Even if he was Esmè's father, she knew that she didn't trust him at all. She was worried.

Olivia picked up Esmè and started to get her ready. Rachel walked into the room. She looked to her and smiled.  "How is she?" 

"She's teething. But she's fine," Olivia said as Rachel nodded.

Olivia knew how Rachel was trying to back off. But it wasn't easy. She knew that she still needed her support. Especially when she knew that Max Tyler was starting at the school. Olivia knew that it wasn't going to be easy.

"What's going on with you and dad? I thought he was coming back?" Olivia asked. 

Rachel looked to her and smiled.  "So did I. I don't know what's going on. But I can't deal with him. I have you to look after. So we need to hurry. I have to be in early if you want a lift," she said as Olivia looked to her and nodded.

Olivia wasn't stupid she knew that there was more going on with Rachel and Eddie then there seemed to be.

Olivia got to school. She walked into Madison's classroom. Madison looked to her and smiled.  "Hey. You okay?" She asked.

Olivia sighed.  "Something weird is going on with mum and my dad. He isn't coming home," Olivia said. 

Madison smiled. She walked over to her. She pulled her into a hug and smiled. "I know it's hard. But it will be okay. I promise. I'm here for you no matter what," she said as Olivia smiled.

Olivia knew how messy her home life was. But she was glad that she had her sister. Even if Madison wasn't living with them.

"How's things with Tom?" Olivia asked.

Madison looked to her and smiled.  "They're good. You don't need to worry. I'm happy. So is Penny is happy. Tom is a good guy. I love him. And right now that's all that matters," Madison said as Olivia looked to her and smiled.

Olivia knew she just wanted her sister to be happy after everything.

Olivia stood on the hallway.  She saw max. She looked to him and glared. She walked off in the opposite direction.

Max caught up to her. He grabbed her arm. She turned to him and glared.  "Get your hands off of me," she spat.

Max pulled her into an empty classroom. He looked to her.  "I want to see Esmè," he told her.

Olivia rolled her eyes.  "I want child support then. And you're not taking her alone. I don't trust you," she spat as Max looked to her and frowned.

He knew he'd do what it took to be part of his daughters life. But just how far would he go?
