"Oliv..." Katarina quickly stood up and rushed to her, snatching her hand.

"What's going on here?" she asked.

"We just talk and address some concerns," Maddison replied.

Olivine kissed Katarina's head and looked at her. She stood there watching the baby sleeping on Maddison's arms.

"You want to hold her?" Katarina whispered, almost tiptoeing just to reach her ear. Her hand clenched on her shoulders.

Olivine didn't reply, but her eyes were locked on the baby's sleeping, as almost her feet were dragging her towards the baby as soon as she closed the door. Not saying anything, Maddison let her take the baby. She saw it in her eyes; she's excited to hold her like she has been hypnotized.

Olivine took the baby slowly, sliding it on her arms, and leaves the room without a single word. Holding the sleeping baby, she was so amused at how cute she is. Maddison and Katarina didn't move; what they just saw, they stood there, both of them shocked at what they witnessed. Neither one of them, on Olivine's side, saw the other. Observing her, at the same time taking the baby away, holding her gently and lovingly, she even gave a sniff and a peck of a kiss on her cheeks.

"Now I understand why you risk it all, Maddison," Katarina smiled at how Olivine responded to the baby.

"I just can't stand the idea alone. I robbed her once, and I will not ever do it again for the baby. I might die of a heart attack and guilt carried for the rest of my life, Katarina," Maddison explained.

"Anyways, come, let's have some lunch," she invited.

"Let them have a bond, Maddison," she replied.

"Hello, Orianna...any news on my sister?" Olivine casually asked and looked around to see if there was anyone around. While she answered her phone, she was carrying the baby who was sleeping in her arms.

"I check the dates on the contracts when they come to an end," she said on the other line, reminding her that her work is done in the place.

"Yes, I am aware, Orianna. Actually, my team and I are doing some little finishing stuff for the moment, and we're all doing good after that, and we were going to leave the place, going back to the city," she reported.

"Ask Josh to send me the details on the work; I'll review it once all your work is done there," she instructed. Olivine is listening, and she looked around searching for Katarina and Maddison. They seemed to still be in the office talking.

"Good job, you and your team... Have a pleasant day to you, Olivine..." she said coldly.

"Have a nice day, Olivine..." she said; the line was cut immediately.

"Hi...baby, you awake..." Olivine said, looking at the baby sleeping on her chest. While doing doodles on the papers on the side, pulling out a pen and a scratch on her pocket.

"Baby Amber, look... this is how I express my feelings and thoughts sometimes... I'm not good with words; it's sad to know, but this is who I am..." Olivine talks to her baby like an adult.

The women continued observing her and watched Olivine and the baby that they had never seen before.

"My endless thoughts that run miles in a second caught me like this...it's not nice, right?" she said. Amber looked at it, and the baby traced the lines on the papers where she drew.
